Les avis sur Hayat évoquent une cuisine libano-syrienne authentique avec des plats savoureux et généreux, comme baba ghanouj, shawarma, fattoush, soujouk, lamb shank et short ribs, servis dans un cadre chic et chaleureux près du Vieux Port avec une terrasse appréciée et une ambiance conviviale; le service est souvent salué comme attentif, professionnel et agréable, et les boissons, en particulier les cocktails, remportent régulièrement les éloges; les desserts comme les baklava pancakes et la glace syrienne séduisent aussi; toutefois certains clients trouvent le rapport qualité-prix discutables et estiment que les portions peuvent paraître petites pour le prix; les expériences varient selon l’affluence et la gestion, avec des critiques concernant la cohérence du service ou les temps d’attente lorsque le restaurant est occupé, et quelques réservations ou préférences de places en bar plutôt qu’une table; malgré cela Hayat est décrite comme une adresse à tester pour les amateurs de cuisine moyen-orientale, avec un fort esprit de découverte et de partage et la plupart prévoyant d’y revenir pour goûter d’autres plats et profiter à nouveau de l’atmosphère et du service.

We went for dinner with family members. We had a great time. The service was excellent, & our waitress was very happy to help us make choices. Her recommendations were perfect! The wine list was interesting, with private imports from Lebanon. We will certainly be back!
Nous avons passés une excellente soirée entre mère & fille. Le service était impeccable. Je recommande vivement si vous voulez une bonne cuisine libanaise & passer un bon moment!
Food & service was excellent. I had lamb shawarma with humus & I liked it. I recommend you try the eggplant beef as appetizer & the Sumac smash cocktail.
C'était réellement excellent! Super ambiance, service impeccable. Je recommande à 100%, vous ne serez pas déçu!! Coup de coeur pour l'assiette Shish taouk, incroyable !!
Tried it out recently... hadn't been in years, new ownership, new management... unique cuisine. Really enjoyed my visit. Good for datenight or small groups. Very nice decor as well
I made reservations here for my friend's birthday yesterday. There was a group of 11 of us. I loved the ambiance & decor of the restaurant. I ordered the lamb shawarma & hummus for myself & I got to try the shish taouk, Jerusalem artichokes, fattoush salad, shish barak, & the short ribs. My lamb shawarma & hummus was perfectly spiced & tender, while the hummus was creamy & velvety which paired great with fresh pita. I was also surprised by the Jerusalem artichokes, they were fried, I never thought artichokes could taste so good. The seasoning used for this was absolutely impeccable. The fattoush salad was also great & tasted fresh. The chicken shish taouk was juicy with a delightful char, the side potatoes that came with this was also amazingly delicious with the spices they used. The beef dumplings were mediocre tasting, I didn't find them to be a stand out. & the short ribs mixed with a creamy sauce was also an odd pairing of flavor. I found the service good as they were attentive & quick to serve us. I did bring a birthday cake in which they charged $5/pp cutting fee. There were these large chocolate pieces that were used to decorate the cake, in which I realized the server never asked if we wanted to eat them. I wish they would have considered this because it was part of the cake & a waste of money to be just thrown out as some of the guests would have liked it. Overall, I thought the majority of the food was well prepared & flavourful. I enjoyed the vibe of the restaurant, however it felt the space was a bit tight. & lastly, the service was good.
