With excellent support and services from the owner family and staff, we organized the inaugural Eid Social for a large group of BC Public Service employees at Syriana on April 19, 2024. The event allowed us to get together enjoying scrumptious food, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian. The buffet had wide variety of selections for everyone including appetizers, desserts and tea at the end. As you think of organizing your next party or get-together, consider Syriana. This restaurant is top-notch with great food and smiling service that you can only get from a family owned and oriented restaurant. Thank you ??

We’ve enjoyed lunch at Syriana twice and both times it was excellent!! Food is delicious, the staff is so friendly and helpful, prices are very reasonable for what you get. Loved the beef lentil soup with triple cheese flat bread today!! We’ll be back for sure!

Shawarma is one of my all time favorite dishes and I've had it countless times at many places across the country. I just had the best I've ever had! The pita/saj bread is delightful, the hummus is smooth and creamy, the chicken is tender (even though I sensed it was breast meat) and well marinated, the tume is rich but delicate at the same time! As a chef in my past life I cannot recommend highly enough and will be returning as much as I can!

Amazingly delicious food! I worked in Syria in the past and I missed Syrian food so much! I'm glad I found Safaa whom at that time was accepting take out orders from her home. The Syriana Restaurant is such a gem in Victoria. Shukran Jazeelan for satisfying my cravings!❤️Vegetarian options: They have wide selection of vegetable salads and I'm sure you will find something to eat there if you're vegan.Wheelchair accessibility: Very spacious and clean place and is wheelchair accessible.

Had a great time here, probably the best middle eastern food in the city! Very clean, nice music, and it was very affordable; without sacrificing quality, everything seemed fresh. The owner were unbelievably kind, offering us dates when she found out we were fasting and even let us stay after closing to finish our meal. Would highly recommend if you’re looking for a new restaurant to try.
