Great for outdoor dining
Neighbourhood gem
Good for special occasions

In Lebanon, food is an essential part of all family and social gatherings, with bold flavors, colorful vegetables, and vibrant proteins fresh from the marketplace. Prepared simply and with passion, our cold and hot mezze, various grilled meats, kebabs, fresh seafood, and creative homemade desserts offer something for everyone, including an abundance of vegan and vegetarian dishes.
At Amar, small plates are meant to be shared, and we encourage you to soak up the aromatic spices and herbs of the Mediterranean and the Levantine coast with our handmade pita bread baked fresh in our wood-burning oven. Inspired by the creative souls who embrace old cultures and new experiences, our cozy space is the perfect mix between rustic and refined, the nostalgic and modern. The Kurban family and their attentive staff invite you to linger over a meal and experience their genuine hospitality.

A very attractive restaurant with parking in the back. We went on a Sunday night thinking few people would be there and it would be quiet. We were wrong. It was so noisy that you cannot have a conversation without screaming. It is also noisy in their outside eating venue. The food was very good but overpriced as are the cocktails which were excellent. The service was amazing. We did not have to wait long for it to be prepared and served. Our waiter so quick, knowledgeable and efficient.

Fab in every way. The place is gorgeous, the vibe is high energy and the food is truly novel and well spiced med. Loved our waitress, Nikki, and felt the warm welcome. Great find!! PS: The only knock is the high noise level inside. Outside is the call here.

The Lebanese food in this restaurant is not very traditional, or particularly good, service was average and the noise level intolerable. We love Lebanese cuisine, but will not be going back to this restaurant.
