Byblos Uptown - Toronto

This past weekend we celebrated a 40th birthday at this location. We booked the small party room that seats 10. It is an intimate room, that allows for privacy. The food was delicious, and the service was phenomenal. There were a number staff floating throughout the restaurant, eagerly waiting to serve customers. We had an overall wonderful experience. Thank you to all the staff for helping us create wonderful memories.

Excellent experience!The food was flavourful and delicious. We started with the manti dumplings (11 in the dish), main was the lamb shoulder for 2 and waygu beef kofta meatballs. Sides were truffle rice and trice cooked fries. Dessert labneh cheesecake and baklava.Cocktail nightingale sour and Ankara elixir (coffee based), and Lebanese Musar Jeune red wine.Everything was superb except the truffle rice and baklava were average. The lamb while delicious was very fatty.With flat white coffee, bill for three came to $320 tip.I’d definitely return. I’d like to try their fall menu.Service was top notch.It wasn’t noisy, crowded or rushed.

Amazing cocktail. Lovely service. Great time. Delicious food. Halibut beef tartar humus all amazing.

I was a bit concerned by the reviews of this location, but we decided to visit regardless for our anniversary. We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the combination of flavours. I do think they elevate Middle Eastern foods and flavours. The Lamb ribs were really good. They were a bit fatty but that was welcomed. The wagyu beef kofta was amazing, but even better with the black truffle rice. The fried chicken by itself was okay. But with the honey based sauce, it was something special. The chocolate olive cake was also really good, and unique in its flavours.

Byblos offers amazing Mediterranean cuisine and the food is full of flavor and unique spices. I went here on multiple occasions and the food has been consistently great. Every time I come, I would order the Pide (flatbread), lamb ribs, and short rib kebab along with the side dishes. I highly recommend trying these dishes out if it is your first time coming.The décor and atmosphere were beautiful; it feels cozy and warm. The service was alright and the staffs were attentive enough to ensure a smooth dining experience; nothing extraordinary. Really looking forward for my next visit!
