It is very rare that a restaurant has this kind of effect on me.
For context - I'm from Toronto, I split my time between Toronto & Montreal, & I'm Lebanese/Armenian. My family has been cooking everything from scratch for generations. Because of that, I'm extremely hard to impress when it comes to Lebanese or Armenian food. I almost never prefer restaurant versions over home cooking.
This place? Absolutely phenomenal.
First, the environment. Clean, minimalist, not pretentious, but thoughtfully designed. It's not'high-end' in a flashy way - it's just done right. The service was exceptional. The two servers were attentive without being overbearing. They picked up on details. That level of care genuinely surprised me.
Now the food.
The fattoush was one of the best I've ever had outside of home. Crisp lettuce, super fresh vegetables, perfectly fried pita, & beautiful contrast with pomegranate. I was honestly shocked at how much I loved it.
We ordered kibbeh nayeh (raw kibbeh), which I usually never order outside because we make it fresh at home. It wasn't my mother's - but it was really, really good. That says a lot.
The hummus with kawarma (stewed meat on top) was phenomenal. Paired with the fattoush, it was unreal. I don't think I've ever fallen in love with hummus & meat like that before.
Batata harra - fried spiced potatoes with toum - amazing. My only note is I wish it had a little more heat, but the flavour was excellent.
The manti (beef dumplings with garlic yogurt, dried mint, sumac, & pepper) were some of the best I've had - & I've had them at very traditional spots. Exceptional.
My only wish is for the pita bread to be served warm.
& dessert.
Kanafeh pain perdu. Perfect portion. Crispy, sweet, balanced. The cheese was absolute perfection. 10 out of 10. Truly.
I haven't asked to speak to an owner to compliment them in over 10 years. I did here. The owner looked young - & he should be incredibly proud. With rising costs & declining quality in so many restaurants lately, this place delivered on everything: service, cleanliness, creativity, flavour, execution.
This was an exceptional meal. Truly a 11/10 experience.
The photos & videos honestly don't do it justice. I'll be back - & next time, I'm bringing more people.
We had high hopes visiting from out of town. But with our previous Armenian food experiences, this one unfortunately didn't fare well. Everyone was nice, nothing against staff. But service was very slow, & we had to get up several times to find a server. food was ok, but the worst was those dumplings, they were tiny, almost burnt, super duper dry. nothing to them at all, & the rest of the food was nothing great. Mains were tiny, The lamb was the highlight, cooked just right though. Highlight was the baklava ice cream dessert with cotton candy. it was unreal. that brought up this score for sure! for the price, not worth it nope.

Very unique & worth going, Armenian cuisine is amazing! The seasoning is perfect, not too heavy, the servings & all are just right & the dessert is wonderful. Have to be back !
We were two people for a Wednesday evening. It was recommended by a Syrian co-worker. The food was overall very good. The oregano fries were good but nothing special. The brussel sprouts were very tasty & had a good char. We ordered the rack of lamb & the shich taouk & filet mignon. Both were very good & well seasoned. The knafa french toast was the highlight. It was original & a nice twist. It wasn't too sweet & full of flavor & texture. It was very satisfying & a great way to end the meal. The waitress was nice but not that helpful in terms of ordering. We asked her what was good which is generally an opening to recommend something but she said everything & didn't offer any suggestions. We ended up deciding ourselves. The bus boy was actually more helpful. He came around often to fill water & take plates. He's the one who sold us on the dessert. It was a very good meal & will definitely come back as the food & value is very good.
Not really woow! Food was ok but nt everything. Kibbeh nayyeh not good at all! Fatteh has nothing to do with fatteh!
Service is very slow! Portions were very small in comparison to the price! Wasnt a pleasant experience! The dessert has a very cheap ice cream nt boza 3a eshta!
My new favourite Armenian/middle eastern restaurant! I tend to be pretty picky with this type of cuisine because i'm middle eastern myself, but Manti is top notch! I've been 3 times already & it consistently delivered delicious fresh food & amazing service (shoutout to Jenny!) They make the best fattoush i've ever had at a restaurant, & just their overall quality in each plate is excellent. Their manti plate is pretty great & it's their specialty, but my favourites are the kebe naye (raw meat), fattoush, hummus kawarma (unbelievable), & their shish taouk sandwich. Also do NOT skip dessert because their baklava ice cream is to die for. I cant recommend this restaurant enough & I will be trying their brunch menu for sure!
Extremely delicious! First time trying manti & it was amazing. We also tried the chicken/fillet mignon plate & that was great. For dessert, I can't recommend the knafa French toast enough.
First time I've been there since they expanded, but no change in the quality of the food or the excellent service. Party of seven on a Thursday night, not too busy but still very lively. We had a mix of manti, fried halloumi, borek, filet mignon, & of course fattoush, plus desserts; all were tasty with generous portions. Some found things a bit spicy compared to our last visit, but all loved it. Service was impeccable, staff were very friendly & attentive.
