Very disappointing experience at one of my all time favourite restaurants. Just married and returned to Montreal for the holidays with my husband. After a couple of pints at Hurley's I was excited for my new hubby to have the full Montreal experience and end the night with Boustan sandwiches. We visited around 8:30pm when it was quiet. Ordered our food and while watching it being prepped and other people served, I noticed that the cashier put the wrong sandwich in the bag. I questioned him as to what we had ordered and he was very flippant and short with me; tearing the receipt from the register and pounding it with his finger. I was totally put off. We took the bag and left. As we were leaving I could hear him talking about me back at the counter - yah, the white girl speaks Arabic.
Lo and behold we were indeed given the wrong order.
Very disappointing to be treated like this and embarrassing to have it happen after I gushed on about how great a place Boustan is. I've always been a fan and even filmed an episode for the Travel Network there several years ago.
I won't be back.
