Laylak is a very upscale Lebanese restaurant in Toronto — elegant, refined, and a great spot if you’re looking for a more elevated dining experience.
We ordered a variety of dishes, and while everything was solid, the appetizers were the real standouts. The kibbeh was perfectly crisp and flavorful, the hummus with beef was outstanding — the beef was so tender it melted in your mouth — and honestly, I’d recommend just ordering a spread of appetizers to share because they were phenomenal across the board.
The desserts were also a highlight: warm, crispy, and kissed with rose water, making them both indulgent and memorable. Easily the best way to end the meal.
The mains were good, but for me, the appetizers and desserts carried the experience and are what I’d come back for. Service was okay, nothing bad but not as polished as you’d expect for such an upscale space. Prices are on the higher side, but you’re paying for the quality, execution, and presentation.
Overall, Laylak is a spot I’d recommend if you want to enjoy upscale Lebanese dining in Toronto. Stick to the appetizers, don’t skip dessert, and you’ll leave very happy.
