Amazing food, seriously. Everything we ordered was excellent. The staff are wonderfully kind, knowledgeable, and helpful, and the atmosphere is surprisingly quiet and intimate. Having an on-site sommelier is a treat, he was able to suggest wine pairings to the food as we ate. 10/10 experience.

Overall we had a great experience. I would revisit.

1. I expected the portions to be slightly larger.
2. Music could be improved. Since it’s a Syrian restaurant, I expected to hear Maqams instead of «house of the rising sun»

One of the best Armenian food in Canada I could talk about this kind of food all day. Not to mention best service !!

I went with my friend here for the first time to try the authentic Syrian food. We ordered Fettouche, Taboule salads along with Kabab Khach- Khach, Chicken Taouck for main course. The food had appreciable taste and the portions were filling.
For cherry on top, we ordered Red Wine as well which tasted pretty decent too.
Really good food and service! The tasting menu was excellent, and they made everything very vegan friendly.

Went here for a bday celebration and had a decent time. Based on the servers recommendations we opted for the tasting option where the server selects dishes and goes on till you indicate whether your appetite is satisfied or not. Also opted for the wine based on the sommelier recommendation. In general the food is 50-50, ie 50% of the dishes were good rest were average. The wine recommended was not very good unfortunately. Very light bodied so did not go well with the course (we had requested for a medium bodied wine). Not sure given the price we will come back but overall recommend the place for a visit.

Great food overall and so happy I got to the Syrian cuisine. We tried the “tasting menu” (basically a la carte prices but they pick an assortment based on your preferences). Highly recommend asking for the labneh, Muhammara, beef tartare, fattoush salad and taboulleh. The kebabs (chicken & beef were good too). The only setback was the wine. We did taste it at first, but it didn’t sit well, and no one did a quality check on it after - and it was a bit poor to our liking. Service was also a bit slow and underwhelming (server forgot my cocktail a few times, was quite slow). Overall, great food - be prepared for a long and really unique meal!
