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.

    The DJ music was way too loud and extremely uncomfortable. I have been to Amal twice previously and the experience was much better compared to last night.

    Had such a great dining experience at Amal. The service, food, drinks and vibe were top notch. Each dish we tried was packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. Definitely some of the best chicken I’ve had at a restaurant in the 6. Highly recommend ordering the grape leaves, sea bass crudo, chicken shish kebabs and the sticky date cake. They even had a live DJ and a dancer, which gave it that extra touch. Shout out to Andrea for making it a memorable night!

    I recently visited Amal Toronto, and I must say it’s one of the finest and most beautiful restaurants in the city. The atmosphere is elegant, and the Eastern cuisine is exceptional. Their chef masterfully combines traditional flavors with a modern touch. The service is excellent and welcoming, and the cleanliness is impeccable. It’s definitely worth a visit and highly recommended for anyone seeking a unique dining experience. The prices are reasonable, considering the high standards of the restaurant. I recommend making a reservation, as the place is often fully booked, especially during peak hours. Also, it’s worth noting that the restaurant serves halal meat.

    Lovely place to dine. Great presentation with the platters. My only real complaint is the full glass of ice in the mocktail makes the drink watery and a waste of time not to mention massively overpriced.

    The foundations of a beautiful experience are there but something is missing. Maybe it's because it's winter, but the flavours were underwhelming. Would love to see more emphasis on the quality of ingredients - more organic, flavourful, local options for produce especially.
