Reviews for Byblos Downtown in Toronto, ON
4.5/5 Their food is excellent and the service is great. This is one of our favourite restaurants downtown. I recommend their... specialty cocktails and fried chicken. Yumm! Will be back. Side note: If you prefer a quiet dining environment, I’d recommendasking to be seated on the lower level. The upstairs can be a bit louder with the music, and if you’re closer to the doors tothe kitchen, it can be a bit hectic with the servers coming in and out. Read more
5/5 for taste, service and vibe. 4/5 final score because we waited a bit long for the food, and the house specialty drinks... weren’t too good. (Would definitely come back, but probably won’t order mixed drinks) I would highly recommend the lamb orbeef pide. It was freshly made and toasted to just right to have tender meat and melted sauces. The lamb shank had greatflavour, and you could ask for extra sauces and the pieces of pita if you want any extra. The servers were super nice about itand packing anything away. Read more
Had dinner here with some colleagues. The ambience is nice, fancy enough but not over the top. The service was kind and... responsive. The food was excellent. I especially like the steak. As far as opportunities, I wish they would have Coca-Colaproducts instead of Pepsi. Read more
One of the best restaurants in Toronto! We absolutely loved the experience and the place is so beautiful! Alexandra was our... server and she did AMAZING! We loved all of her recommendations and she was super professional. One of us were celiac and twovegan and she adapted every dish for us. They have tons of gluten free and vegan options and everything is super delicious &cocktails are definitely a must!! Couldn’t recommend it more. Thank you Alexandra for making our experience unforgettable! Read more
I finally got out to this restaurant and it was fantastic. The server was very knowledge and kind. The food from beginning to... end was great. The only thing I would say is the second floor is a little loud due to the high bare ceilings. It was about halfcapacity and I could barely hear the people sitting across from me. The standout dishes were the rice, dumplings, tomato salad(amazing) and fried chicken. Read more
Diverse wine list, including options from Lebanon. The flavors in every dish are bright and diverse. Everything we had was... perfectly seasoned - the pide is not to be missed (we had the truffle one). We definitely ordered too much food (which isn't abad thing) - if I had to cut one dish it would have been the cauliflower. The service was excellent, though I would cautionthat the ambiance is much different between the lower and upper floor - lower being more casual and the upper is more romanticand intimate. Read more
Perfect experience! The atmosphere is great, love the deco. Amazing service! The sesame lamb rib is a must. The short rib is... great but not as special. As for desert, the one in my photo is a pleasant surprise. It's unique and I love the pistachioflavor Read more
I quite enjoyed Byblos! Went here for date night, and was seated in a comfy, yet upbeat spot. Got the geographer cocktail. It... was good and aesthetically pleasing! The lamb ribs were amazing. Mouth watering, tasty, and perfectly balanced with the sauces.The dumplings were also a treat to try. The black truffle pide was very underwhelming. I would not recommend. I've had similarquality bread and cheese flavours, and the truffle is barely there. The fried chicken was tasty, and generous with portions Ienjoyed the unique flavours compared to normal fast food fried chicken. The service was quick, friendly, andinformative. Overall a good time!
