    Perfect trifecta of well made food, well lit space and good service. I have eaten a good amount of Lebanese food but what stood out here was no oil aftertaste or acidic feeling.

    Lovely brunch! Appreciated how attentive and kind the staff were, from the moment we walked in. We were treating some friends to brunch for a special occasion and the staff helped make it feel extra special.

    My fiancé and I came for our anniversary dinner and it was amazing. The food was delicious and the vibe was also great, loved the music and the entertainment towards the end of the night. We will definitely be returning for more dinners.

    This is my wife’s favourite restaurant in the GTA. It’s one of the only places we’ve been to in years where the food, service, cleanliness, and ambiance are perfect every time. We usually get a chicken tawook, some garlic labneh, some rice, some veggie skewers, and occasionally hummus or makanek if I’m feeling extra hungry. The lamb shank is also excellent. It’s nice to see an actual dining room manager floating around keeping an eye on dinner service without being overbearing. That’s an art in itself. We don’t really drink but we always get sparkling water and the type they carry is deliciously sharp. I’ve only had their sticky toffee pudding as far as the desserts go, but it was very good! Really nice ice cream that certainly tastes homemade to me. We’ll keep coming back if they keep it up like this!

    - Amazing food especially if you love Lebanese/Syrian food - Price is good for the quality and experience - Service is 10/10, but could be perceived as slow. That's to give you time to talk! Totally normal. - It is slightly loud in there but that's due to the place being full with many people chatting, not loud music and such.
