Rumi Grill Restaurant Montreal

The Bottom Line

The Rumi Grill Restaurant in Montreal is a local favorite of Middle Eastern food devotees. The comfortable establishment offers a welcoming location for dining and chatting. The hardwood charcoal grill warms the place and provides a sweet, smoky aroma.

Tender grilled spicy meat can be purchased by the half kilo - enough for two or three while the vegetarian dishes such as labneh (yoghurt topped with olive oil and spices) and falafel are a real value starting at $4.50 each.

Guide Review - Rumi Grill Restaurant Montreal

Persian saffron, Aleppo pepper and pomegranate are just three ingredients that contribute to the successful menu of this grill house/ tearoom combination restaurant.

For the last seven years Rumi has been offering lamb, beef, chicken and seafood by the half kilo/kilo accompanied by pickled vegetables and a choice of spicy sauces.

Vegetarians can dine for as little as $7.00 per person from a variety of dishes including falafel wheels, hummus, baba ghanoush and muhammara dip.

An assortment of homemade, non alcoholic drinks include a basil lemonade and a ginger drink along with a good selection of teas, as might be expected from a "Silk Road" establishment.
