From the OpenTable editors: Amal dazzles diners with bright, stylish decor that draws inspiration from traditional Lebanese design. This alluring Yorkville restaurant backs up its good looks with an expertly executed Middle Eastern menu that touches on all the classics—dips paired with housemade pita, mezze, well-seasoned skewer platters, and shawarma.

    Really wanted to give this a higher rating. But….for a Michelin star restaurant service and details were lacking. Food good. We were a group of 7 to celebrate my brother in laws birthday. Ordered apps but one was forgotten so had to wait. My mother in law accidentally spilled wine on herself and plate and asked for a new setting but was forgotten even our server kept noticing but removing her dirty ones. Dirty dishes left on the table for a very long time between apps and dinner. We had to pour wine ourselves and kept asking for more water instead of an automatic pour. We didn’t even wait for dessert we just wanted the bill to leave from this frustrating experience. They are not able to handle bigger groups. An automatic 20% tip added on but didn’t feel it was justified. Even our oblivious 16 year old son noticed the lack of detailed service. Trying to be high end - nice ambiance, Molton Brown soap in washroom, etc but service lacking. Perhaps need more staff needed during dinner service. This was a Sunday.

    I took my mom out for a belated birthday dinner this evening. It was her first time at Amal and she thoroughly enjoyed herself. The server went above and beyond to make sure our experience was special. The food was absolutely delicious! We can’t wait to come back!

    Everything was great but service was slow. We waited a long time for our drinks. We never got the coffee we ordered but tried to charge us. We had asked for condiments when dinner came but our server never brought them. Despite that, we loved the restaurant. The food was excellent and a it was a lively enjoyable atmosphere. We will come back.

    Incredible food!! Very energetic atmosphere, the belly dancers were beautiful and the waiters were great and so sweet. The drinks were 10/10, espresso martinis were amazing and I’m not a big alcohol person!
