Bar Sybanne

Amazing service and vibe! Can’t wait to return to try the rest of the menu

The food was incredible and the drinks were excellent. The deep fried Brussel leaves were to die for!

Superlative service ambiance and delicacies .. the mushrooms are luscious and paired beautifully with the Israeli herb salad ... our party of three sampled 7 dishes and all were amazing ...Howard the chef/owner was charming and delightful as was Sam at the bar ... highly recommend the Bar Sybanne experience

We had another wonderful experience at Bar Sybanne. The food and service continues to be outstanding. A reliable choice for a perfect night out.

Wonderful ambiance and great, inventive food. Definitely not a typical middle-eastern restaurant; more “middle-east inspired”.

My favorite combination is the saffron rice + chicken tagine. Also great are the fried brussel leaves. And we kept ordering more of the Turkish flatbread, even after the hummus and eggplant dips were long gone... (BTW, the roasted eggplant is sweet and delicious — NOT baba ganoush, but its own great recipe.)

Second time there, food was really good, cocktails were really interesting staff are professional and have good suggestions

Dark and quiet

Consistently serving amazing food! Thanks to the team at B.S! :)

Had a really wonderful NYE celebration!! Love the share menu and the cocktails were amazing! Looking forward to eating more this 2019.

Really enjoyed the New Years Eve prefix menu, the wine, the service and the ambience. The food was fantastic!

First time at the restaurant, decided to let the waiter make all the selections.

He made very tasty choices however we had way too much food. We probably should have let the waiter know we did not want to totally stuff ourselves, we left 3 dishes unfinished. We needed to walk around the block to help our digestion.

Highlights - everything was delicious, though the tartar stood out. The Brussels Sprouts were also fantastic.

Service was very attentive.

Better every time I go. The staff is thoughtful and accommodating.

Having just visited Morocco we 4 were anxious for a follow up Moroccan meal. The lead in hummus/tahini was quite tasteless. The food was served as it was ready, so a dish of brocollini sat alone on the table for a few minutes until it was joined by another dish, then everything else came out. The basmati rice tasted quite awful, as if it had been boiled with plastic. That said, the fried Brussel leaves with figs and almonds were delightful! When we asked for another serving spoon (we had 8 dishes on the table) the response was "what, 4 spoons aren't enough?". If this is typical Ossington, we won't bother returning to the area, there are enough new great restaurants east of Yonge!!

Had a small birthday dinner here recently. Excellent service, delicious food. The staff was so warm and accommodating, can't thank them enough for ensuring we had a great night. Definitely recommend!

Amazing service. Riley recommended amazing cocktails and food. Marissa came up to us later to chat and ask how everything was. Super friendly and all around amazing dinner

Friend’ b-day

We had the most amazing meal here. Great atmosphere and service and the food was outstanding.
Highlights: beef short ribs, brussel sprouts, fried chicken, saffron rice
Highly recommended

Food was nothing special and way overpriced. Super slow, no atmosphere. On the plus side, the service was great!

First visit and the food was outstanding! Excellent choices to be shared by our group (4) and the service was excellent.

Will be back for sure!!!

We were there to celebrate a couple of birthdays. It was a new experience for all of us. Service and food were terrific. We'll be back!

It was excellent. I highly recommend it. I was hesitant after seeing some of the reviews but would believe the five out of fives. Jamie, our server, was tremendous. I highly recommend this place and will go back.

Excellent service (including sommelier who is excellent), delicious Mediterranean sharing plates, really good cocktails. Can be noisy but second time there and will go back. Just good food and service. They make you feel welcome and don’t take their customers for granted. I really appreciated being remembered even though we had only been there once before. Have the fried Brussel sprout leaves.

Great quality food, solid price point and good to share. I would go back for certain.

Food was very tasty but for the price, portions could’ve been a little bigger. While it says you have times for tables, in the future I’d come on a less busy night...not great being asked to leave on a Sat night, while table beside us was there before us and still hadn’t gotten their bill.

An under the radar gem - food was superb - everyone in my group was very happy!
I definitely recommend. Also great that corkage is an option.

My third visit and the food was delicious and very consistent with past visits. Nice to see new items on the menu and that the fried Brussels Spouts are still a go to item. Israeli salad is lovely and the tahini dressing balances the hints of sweetness. The lamb skewers are a favourite of mine.

Great cocktail menu with interesting flavours and not just sweet concoctions with interesting names.

Service was gracious and professional even though we were a high maintenance table, arrived late and took forever to order.

Food was ok. We ordered half of what was on the menu and only really enjoyed 2 or 3 things. There were a lot of dishes that were too sweet, without enough of anything else to balance it out. It took over 2 hours to get the last of our order out. By then we weren’t even hungry anymore.

We liked the simplicity of the menu and the house cocktails were original and very yummy Thank youHD

My daughter and I loved the food. Each dish was quite generous and so we probably over-ordered. We had the saffron rice, braised ribs, fried Brussel leaves, chicken nuggets with orange blossom honey and the labneh and we would recommend all of it. We are planning on returning.

Food was below par and it was very pricy. Would not recommend

It was amazing!!! Delicious food, excellent service

Great Mediterranean/Middle Eastern restaurant on Ossington! Food is exceptionally tasty and well presented. Staff are attentive and make genuine conversation while dining. Cocktails are refreshing and original. Reserve in advance or expect a wait as it's a small space

Delicious Middle Eastern Fare, good portions and wonderful flavours!!

Bar Sybanne was suggested by one of the people I was taking to dinner, I had not been before. We had a terrific time, the food was excellent, and the staff could not have been nicer. Thank you!

Each time we come, we are not disappointed. Food is EXCEPTIONAL. Servers are helpful and friendly. Favourites are the chicken bites and the brussel leaves.

A few of the dishes were great (Fried Chicken Bites, Cauliflower) but too many were average at best (lamb, beets, halloumi). Also, why charge extra for a few pieces of pita? Small charge but more annoying than anything, especially when you're going to be spending close to $100/person.

Great place! Staff was super helpful with menu selections. Each dish was delicious. We had a great night and would highly recommend Bar Sybanne.... Can't wait to go back!

Excellent food and service. The steak tartare and grilled fish were fantastic. A bit expensive considering the small portions. Very loud and noisey as well. However, the food was great, I would recommend.

Friendly, prompt service. Whole fish was cooked to perdection and the meatballs were delicious.

Atmosphere, service and cocktails were great. The food left something to be desired. We tried 7 dishes and didn’t enjoy and of them. Customer service isn’t their specialty either. Great for a cocktail.
