Amir

At Amir in Montreal, diners find a divided experience where some praise generous portions of chicken shawarma and friendly service from staff who know regulars by name, while others face concerning issues. The restaurant earns loyalty for its signature garlic sauce and reliable shish taouk, with many noting it's their favorite among Montreal's Amir locations. However, numerous reviews mention inconsistent food quality, with complaints about dry, overcooked meats and occasionally rude service. While the atmosphere feels dated, those who receive fresh ingredients and proper portions leave satisfied. This Amir remains a neighborhood staple that delivers authentic flavors when at its best, though consistency remains its biggest challenge.
