I can't believe I missed being the first to review this location by a day. Well when an institution such as Boustan opens in a new region of Montreal, there is bound to be a lot of excitement.
Impressive new sign showing off their "famous" and that they began originally in 1986 - wow that's a lot of pitas and shawarma.
Speaking of pitas and shawarma. These Boustan pita sandwiches were larger than I'd ever seen plus extra crunchy on the outside (thanks for that extra care and attention grilling them - as the other guys can get soggy). On that level great, on the garlic potatoes and garlic mayo - they're both just a little less -incredible- than the original Crescent street location, but I guess that happens with expansion. Don't get me wrong they're tasty little nuggets nonetheless.
To customer service I say, the guy who took the order was very on it and welcoming. The food came in about 30 minutes as was mentioned - no fuss, no muss.
The sign, and interior of the restaurant are very neat and clean, so there is a benefit of expansion. Those who know the original location can attest, the old bathrooms...not 5 star.
Bathroom memories aside, looking forward to trying more items, for now just wanted to be at least the second to review.
Welcome Boustan!
