Lylac Restaurant propose une cuisine syrienne et moyen-orientale authentique axée sur des méthodes de préparation traditionnelles et des ingrédients aromatiques puissants. Le menu met en avant des viandes grillées au charbon de bois, incluant du shish taouk tendre et de la kafta assaisonnée, accompagnées de pains plats frais servis avec du houmous onctueux et du baba ganoush fumé. Chaque plat utilise un équilibre précis d'épices méditerranéennes et de produits de haute qualité pour offrir des saveurs robustes et savoureuses caractéristiques de la région du Levant. La cuisine privilégie des techniques artisanales, garantissant que chaque assiette conserve une texture constante et des profils aromatiques profonds. Les convives découvrent un environnement culinaire direct où l'accent demeure sur l'intégrité des ingrédients et la composition fidèle des recettes régionales classiques pour une expérience gastronomique authentique.
Le restaurant Lylac est largement reconnu pour sa cuisine syrienne et libanaise authentique, les clients soulignant régulièrement la grande qualité, la fraîcheur et les saveurs riches de plats tels que le pain pita, les mezzés et les grillades. L'atmosphère est constamment décrite comme chaleureuse, accueillante et dynamique, souvent rehaussée par de la musique live et un décor soigné. Bien que la majorité des convives soulignent un service exceptionnel, attentionné et amical qui déploie de grands efforts pour satisfaire les groupes et les événements spéciaux, quelques commentaires mentionnent des incohérences occasionnelles concernant les procédures de paiement, les attentes liées aux pourboires ou des interactions isolées moins positives avec le personnel. Dans l'ensemble, l'établissement est très apprécié pour son bon rapport qualité-prix et ses services de traiteur, ce qui en fait une destination prisée tant pour les repas décontractés que pour les célébrations familiales importantes.
Visited with my family 💙 we had a group of 10+ people, & everything was amazing from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, full of flavor, & you could tell everything was made with care. The atmosphere was relaxing, welcoming, & perfect for enjoying a meal together.
The staff truly went above & beyond to make sure everyone was taken care of, especially with such a large group. Their hospitality made the experience even better.
I'm visiting from NYC, & honestly I wish they had a location there because I would absolutely be back! Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic Syrian food & a great dining experience.
I went there yesterday with 17 family members because a friend of mine is always hyping this place up. We made a reservation in advance, & somehow no one thought it was important to mention that we'd be forced into a fixed menu. So we get there, start looking at the menu like normal people, & suddenly we're told we don't have a choice. At that point, it's not even about the menu anymore, it's the fact that no one communicated this beforehand.
What really made it worse was the attitude. Instead of owning the miscommunication, the staff immediately started blaming us, like we were supposed to just magically know. They even tried to gaslight us into believing they had already told the person who reserved about it, which simply wasn't true. No apology, no effort to fix it, just rude, dismissive, & honestly disrespectful.
We ended up leaving, which was embarrassing & a complete waste of time with that many people.
If this is how they treat customers, I genuinely don't understand the hype. The lack of basic communication & the attitude alone are enough to make sure I never come back. If you're planning to go, double check everything because clearly they won't bother telling you.

Karla welcomed me & my family as if we were back home in Lebanon. We felt nostalgic & it was amazing to be here, especially with the Saturday night entertainment.
Oh let's not forget, the food is off the hook. Dont miss out
Honestly, this is our go-to restaurant next time we visit in Montreal. We drove all the way from Ottawa, & I have to say, Lylac is a restaurant my family & I will go back to. To start, the service was unbelievable. They were checking our table every 5 minutes to see if we needed anything. Not only one person, but we had a rotation of different servers checking the table & bringing us this hot, amazing fresh bread. The food was absolutely amazing; the portions were great, & the taste was unbelievable. For entertainment, there was also lots of fun, especially the DJ between the singers. It was a great combination. If I have to say what was the best, it was the service with their beautiful, genuine smiles. The way they served was off the charts. I strongly recommend this place if you're looking for one place that has it all; you definitely cannot go wrong.
The food is great but there was an annoying family with 5+ kids running & crying around & the parents didnt even bother to contain their behavior insyead had them sitting away in an another table however the waiter was so helpful he managed it so well & accomodated & talked to the family, he deserves a raise!! Id it wasnt for him i wouldve requested a refund & left :)
Lylac catered our wedding & it was fantastic. We received so many compliments from our guests, they loved the food. We had family style cold & hot mezza, mashawi, & dessert.
In addition to the food, Jean & his team were fantastic. They went above & beyond on the day of & in the weeks leading up to the big day.
I highly recommend them for your event, they will not disappoint!
We had a beautiful event with friends & family for our daughter's first birthday. The owner was very collaborative with all aspects of our event, & very responsive to all our inquiries. Fantastic team. Thank you for a memorable day !
Restaurant Lylac is a good Middle Eastern restaurant. The food is decent, but the service is excellent. There's a pleasant ambiance & convenient parking available. I highly recommend trying the Baba Ghanoush; it's a standout dish. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, perfect for a casual meal with friends or family. While the food could be improved, the friendly staff & overall experience make it worth a visit.
