From the OpenTable editors: Amal dazzles diners with bright, stylish decor that draws inspiration from traditional Lebanese design. This alluring Yorkville restaurant backs up its good looks with an expertly executed Middle Eastern menu that touches on all the classics—dips paired with housemade pita, mezze, well-seasoned skewer platters, and shawarma.

    Amal is one of my all time favourite spots for brunch, the service is always fantastic, food and cocktails are excellent and the décor and ambiance is first class. Special mention for my most recent visit where I had mentioned we were celebrating a birthday when I made the reservation over a month ago and forgot I had said anything. Amal brought us a delicious dessert unprompted and it was delicious.

    Beautiful restaurant and great environment but the quality of their food is not good. I tried grape leaves, zaatar, and bbq meat combo. Tbh, none of them were tasty but chicken was better than the rest but still not what I expected. I am quite disappointed. The service wasn’t also anything special no recommendations no explanation but they were quite fast and efficient.
