  • Deep within the bleak and depressing hinterland of Marcel-Laurin boulevard lies this understated mecca to Lebanese food. The food is prepared simply yet perfectly with a well honed confidence. They don't just serve chicken. They serve amongst the BEST chicken you will ever have. The filet mignon shish kebab (get it medium rare) is good enough to make you cry. The same with the kefta. Their food makes you feel like you've been ripped off by every other Lebanese restaurant in town. I don't know how I am supposed to ever go back to Basha, Amir, or even the mighty Boustan after eating at Daou. The fattouch salad and hummus with pine nuts to start were both excellent. The falafel salad however, is in a league of its own. The falafel balls are served hot with a crispy exterior and soft and moist interior. Topped with tahini, tabouleh, tomatoes, turnips, and peppers, this dish transports you to a place far away (ever farther than Ville St. Laurent!) This falafel obliterates all others in the city. Again, Daou has managed to ruin every other falafel I might have elsewhere in the future. I look around the restaurant and see families from all backgrounds; Indian, African, Lebanese, Italian, Jewish. People who have all undertaken a pilgrimage to get their fix. Every time a slice of birthday cake is served, the restaurant starts blasting this cheesy happy birthday-like song on the speakers causing everybody to start singing and clapping. It's one of those unique old school experiences that reminds me of Chi-Chi's happy birthday song in the 80s. Paired with a standard but excellent chocolate layer cake, there are few better ways to spend a rainy Sunday night. Prices are just slightly elevated but considering the quality of food, they are entirely justified. Daou is still priced well below a trendy place like Damas which wildly overcharges for what is essentially humble food. Service was a little slow, but they get a pass on a holiday weekend in Quebec. Scratch that. With food like this, they could hypothetically curse at me and keep me waiting for hours like an animal. It wouldn't diminish my admiration for their works of art on a plate.
