A very nice, chic restaurant that has an ambient atmosphere with smiling and helpful staff ☺️☺️ We started with olives and pita for the appetizer and then moved onto Lamb kebab and Steak for the main course ❤️❤️ Very delicious and each bite was a gourmet’s delight ❤️❤️ For dessert we had the date cake which was just as delicious! Truly a 10/10 restaurant and look forward to trying other items on the menu ☺️☺️

Been there a few times, the food is always delicious and the service is amazing (they asked about dietary restrictions and guided us)! Great spot to share plates

everything about my experience at ayla was amazing. the ambiance is beautiful i love the soft lighting and seating areas are stunning. the staff was so friendly and great to make conversation with. all the dishes were curated with chef’s love and care, i highly recommend the scallops and date and walnut cake. the cocktails were to die for as well, my fave was the flor de luxe.

I had brunch here. They said they gave me French toast as a gift for the delayed food, but when I got home and checked the receipt, they actually charged me for the French toast. It's really surprising. I ended up paying $25 for toast I didn't even want. What a shocking experience!

Le restaurant est très joli, le service est attentionné et la nourriture excellente! Tout était délicieux, de l'entrée au dessert. Le niveau de bruit peut être légèrement trop élevé si vous vous trouvez près d'une table festive, mais c'est tout à fait acceptable. Un restaurant comme on les aime !

I ate here as part of a group of 6 last night. Resto has a great vibe walking in and we were seated in a nook with a round table - perfect for being able to talk to everyone there. Food was delicious; we shared everything. Service was impeccable — everyone was so nice and attentive. Reynald the sommelier was fabulous, as were the servers. Reynald even divided up the cheques 6 different ways for the shareables and added individual drinks. My American friends couldn’t believe the amount of food and drink for the price when converted to US. They were thrilled. I would definitely come back next time I’m in Montreal.

Great datenight spot for that kind of ambience . The salad and mezze platter was my favourite, it came with freshly baked bread . As for the mains i got the lamb chops and it was very nicely presented however came super cold so i asked for it to be reheated and staff kindly took care . Overall a fancy spot for a date night which could always be an option because of its Ambience .
I previously visited Ayla for dinner and had a pleasant experience, so I returned for brunch with high hopes. Unfortunately, the food was very disappointing, and the service was equally poor. I was recommended the French toast with ice cream, but it smelled strongly of egg and was burnt to the point that I couldn't eat it...The overall brunch experience was far below expectations, with unfriendly and subpar service. There are certainly better cafes in the neighborhood worth trying.
This visit felt like a waste of money, and I regret not choosing another place.

Sadly, we were a little underwhelmed by the quality of food this time around. Not sure if the chef has changed but several items were not as spectacular as before and hence one questions the value.
