I can't pay this place enough compliments. The staff is incredibly friendly and warm, and of course the food is fabulous. We wanted to serve falafels as our late night snack at our wedding, but Mariam was so excited and supportive that she developed our idea into a beautiful spread of falafel, hawawshi, kushari, katayef, and kunfafa and all of it was a HUGE hit with our guests. Thank you a million times over to Tanoura and their team for everything!

This place is a hidden gem in West-Island and should be valued more. Their Egyptian dishes were delicious! I loved the Mouloukhia (was my first time trying) and the Hawawshi with Tahini sauce was my favorite as well as their falafels were the best ones I’ve had in Montreal (crispy on the outside and tender on the inside). Will definitely come back for more!
