Overall impressions highlight fresh, flavorful Syrian and Middle Eastern dishes, with standout items like kibbe nayah and a wide mezze selection, all served by a friendly, attentive team in a warm, elegant setting that suits celebrations and private events; while the food and service are repeatedly praised as excellent and the atmosphere inviting, a few reviews note occasional price transparency issues, some renovations affecting ambiance, and rare slower moments during busy periods, yet most experiences inspire plans to return.
The food is good & authentic. The service is acceptable. The prices are reasonable. Not much of a view. A pleasant environment & worth trying if you are interested in discovering authentic Syrian food with a slight commercial touch.
The food was amazing, the service was excellent, the place was very neat & clean, the prices were very reasonable, & the food was authentic - it tasted just like back home.

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.
Food: The spread was a delightful journey through authentic Middle Eastern flavors. Each dish was prepared with care-fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. The generous portions ensured that all our guests were satisfied, & many commented on the quality & taste of the food.
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.
