About Byblos Downtown

Byblos Downtown offers an excellent dining experience with flavorful dishes. The menu features dumplings, fried chicken, jewelled rice, and cheese and truffle pide. The Eastern Mediterranean flavors are bold and well-balanced, beautifully presented. The atmosphere is warm and vibrant next to the open kitchen, creating a nice vibe for celebrations. Service is friendly and polished, with attention to detail and knowledge about dietary restrictions, offering alternatives and substitutions.

Highlights of the menu include the sweet jewelled rice, short rib kebab, ribeye, lamb burritos, and wagyu wood-fired pita. Customers praise the very tasty food, mentioning the short rib, lentil rice, hummus royale, and lamb pide. The octopus dish is a standout, while the Turkish dumplings are popular on social media, though some find them not as good as the octopus. The food was excellent, with Lamb ribs and Octopus appetizers, Wagyu Lahmeh, Brussel Sprouts, and Halloumi being dishes customers would order again. The lamb pide is noted for its strong delicious flavor, and the rice and Brussel sprouts help balance the meal.

Byblos Downtown is well-known as one of the best Middle Eastern restaurants in Canada and boasts an excellent wine list. The cocktail menu has also received positive feedback, featuring well-priced and interesting takes on some classics. The location is really nice, but this specific location is a bit small, so reservations are required as the restaurant is often full.
