Basha was in the right place at the right time, sadly, we were not. Unable to go any longer without food, we stumbled in to Basha for some falafel-what could go wrong? Everything. The place was a disaster. Empty and filthy. I’d have thought it was abandoned had it not been for the sole employee watching the Jays game from another table. He seemed relieved when we ordered the falafel wraps because, luckily, there were already some sitting under a heat lamp. He quickly slapped the wraps together. They were cold, dry, and unsatisfying. I could never, ever recommend this place. Learn from our mistake, avoid at all costs.

Beef shawarma was no good — poorly seasoned with overpowering sauce. The garlic potatoes were inedible; mushy potatoes with a goopy sauce. Avoid and go to Boustan instead.

Need food? It was open later than most on a Sunday. Plus, it was affordable.

Killer falafel and hummus, great vegetarian options… which is pretty unique in Montréal. I got the ‘vegetarian plate’ which allowed a selection of 5 vegetable salads… The lentils/rice were a little dry, but the eggplant was amazing, as was the avocado and the chickpeas. Pitas for free! Plus they have diet cokes. Convenient if you’re in the Palais!
