The service is repeatedly described as friendly, attentive, and professional, with staff going above and beyond during celebrations and private events. The atmosphere is warm, stylish, and inviting, making it suitable for date nights, casual dinners, or larger gatherings, though a few reviewers note that renovations or the room layout can make the space feel too bright or a touch noisy at times and a few guests found some chairs uncomfortable.

Coming from a Syrian family we have tried every Arabic restaurant under the sun. From California, to Hungary, to Spain, we have all come to the conclusion that this was the best we've tried. Every dish was a hit & the menu had such great variety. Not only this, the service & atmosphere were excellent. Could not recommend enough!
En attendant ma commande au Lylac, on m'a offert un café. Un petit geste simple mais qui montre leur hospitalité & leur souci du détail. & en plus, le café était délicieux ☕?. Merci pour l'accueil chaleureux !

So disappointed!! This place was muly favorite... last 2 visits, service was super slow even though the restaurant is empty & the drink menu has very limited options... 😕
We recently entrusted Lylac Restaurant in Laval with catering for our child's First Communion, & the experience was exceptional from start to finish.

Service: The team at Lylac went above & beyond to make our event memorable. From the initial planning stages to the day of the celebration, they were attentive & accommodating. The owner personally supervised the setup, ensuring everything was perfect. Their professionalism & dedication truly stood out.
Overall Experience: Choosing Lylac for our First Communion catering was a decision we won't regret. Their combination of delicious food, exceptional service, & welcoming atmosphere made the occasion truly special. We highly recommend Lylac Restaurant for anyone looking to host a memorable event.

What a fantastic experience. They catered my mother's 80th & they went above & beyond in both quality & quantity. Bren happily eating the leftovers for a week & the guests both young & younger loved the food. Jan was quick to respond & very accommodating. Food was incredibly fresh & flavoured beautifully. We had it all. Filet mignon, shrimps, chicken plus all the mazze. The kibeneyeh, fatouche & the hummus were almost as good as moms 😉
We planned our daughter's first birthday party at Lylac. We were a large group of 60 adults & 20 children. The owner, Jan, was so patient & accommodating with us throughout the process. He coordinated our menu, the set up of a children's play area & more. The food was delicious. Our guests are still talking about it! The service was attentive & exceptionally polite. Thank you for a beautiful day, Lylac Resto Bar!
