Located in South Oakville Center, Laylak Oakville brings a high-end modern twist to traditional Lebanese cuisine. With an emphasis on quality ingredients and expert culinary techniques, Laylak offers a unique dining experience. Upon entering the restaurant, guests are greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with BOHO style decor and comfortable seating that create a sophisticated yet relaxed ambiance. Laylak's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the dining experience, from the carefully curated menu to the expertly crafted cocktails and extensive wine list.
Great experience, food was amazing, and the vibe of the place is perfect to celebrate a special occasion. Abby was our server and helped us with some questions on the menu and drinks. We ordered hummus dip which comes with pita (pita was faaaantaaastic and unique) for mains we had chicken tawauk and shrimps and both were great. Drinks are highly recommended, we had yalla, beirut rose, laylak and 1001 Beirut rose is my top pick !
Food and presentation was good. Atmosphere was cozy and warm. I took off one star because it was pricey for what your really get. For a party of 4, the total was $290. We ordered 4 dishes. Nothing too fancy that we ordered.
What a delightful dining experience at Laylak Lebanese Cuisine! Each dish was an exquisite showcase of Lebanese flavors. I particularly loved the fatoush salad, which was crispy and refreshing. The lamb chops were absolutely heavenly, cooked to perfection with a delicious blend of spices. The staff made us feel right at home, providing excellent recommendations and service. This restaurant is a must-visit for anyone who enjoys flavorful cooking. I’m counting down the days until I can return!
We had an amazing dining experience here last night. Good food, specially liked the vegan kibbeh. Hummus and toum were also both so silky. Chicken tawouk was good but the veggies were grilled better. Ofcourse the most memorable part of our meal was the date cake. So scrumptious, just warm enough to not melt the vanilla ice cream. Service was slow but they were busy. The hosts checked in on us when they could. The atmosphere is generally really good but i do have a suggestion the neon Laylak in the room inside is cool white and so disturbing to the ambience. Doesnt go with all the warm white light sources. If you have light sensitivity i would not sit facing it. That and the space was heavily scented, bugged me throughout.
We visited this location recently for my sister in laws bridesmaid proposal brunch where we did their set menu, and we were so impressed with the quality of service from both the manager and the staff. They made our special event feel even more special, tending to our every need! I’m a huge fan of both Laylak locations and will definitely be back again soon.
From the moment I stepped into Laylak Oakville, I was enveloped in an ambiance that perfectly balances elegance and warmth. The interior design strikes a beautiful chord between contemporary chic and cozy comfort, with soft lighting that sets a serene mood. Rich textures and muted colors create a backdrop that feels both luxurious and inviting—ideal for those Instagrammable moments. The dining experience is truly exceptional. Each course is presented with artistic flair, showcasing the chef’s dedication to both flavor and aesthetics. The menu offers a delightful array of dishes that highlight seasonal ingredients, each bursting with flavor and creativity. The attention to detail in each plate reflects a passion for culinary artistry. Service is impeccable; the staff is attentive without being intrusive, ensuring that every need is met. Their knowledge of the menu adds to the experience, making recommendations that elevate the meal. Laylak Oakville is more than just a restaurant; it’s a full sensory experience that leaves you feeling pampered and satisfied. For anyone looking to indulge in a truly remarkable dining experience, this gem is a must-visit. Perfect for special occasions or simply treating yourself to a night of exquisite cuisine and atmosphere. Special thank you to Benson who went out of his way to accommodate our large group!
What a beautiful place! The food was amazing, the service was spectacular, the restaurant itself was beautiful. The chef special tasting menu was so filling and had so much food to share with a larger group. The servers were accommodating to dietary needs (ie., gluten free, vegan) and were consistently checking in to ensure everyone was doing well. They also gave a complimentary delicious birthday cake which was a very nice touch. I must say the main dish was delicious but the portion sizes were quite small, as seen, and it was quite expensive for the amount of main dish you get, also the dessert was 1-2 plates shared between the whole group. However, they brought many appetizers which were all delicious and filling, so I feel this is where the most of the cost of the chef menu came from. Overall pleasant experience but definitely on the expensive side.
Honestly, from the moment I walked into Laylay in Oakville, it was the best experience. The ambiance of the restaurant was so enchanting that I chose to wear one of my most gorgeous dresses. One of the hostesses kindly took a few pictures of me before my friend arrived, which was a lovely touch. We ordered from the chef’s special menu, which offered a delightful array of options. While the food was quite decent, we were disappointed with the dessert included in the special. Overall, it was a great experience.
We ordered the trio dip, tabouleh, beef kibbeh, cheese sticks, octopus, brazino and the mahalabia. Our group also ordered the date cake for the table to share. Abdullah was very helpful in explaining our menu to us and providing recommendations. The trio dip was a group favourite, the kibbeh was crunchy and soft all at once, the cheese sticks were excellent with the drizzle of honey, octopus was very meaty, brazino cooked very well, and the mahalabia is surprisingly not as sweet. The date cake is also nice and moist! As a diabetic, would recommend! As the food is not as starch forward, and the mahalabia has no rice, and with a small bite of the date cake, at the end of the night, I was sitting at an 8.2 but dropped quickly!
Best service in laylak really recommend coming here and fantastic server named Abdullah!!!! 100/100
The service was great and abdullah was very friendly! :)
Abdullah was great! Loved the restaurant I celebrated my birthday here and will definitely come back! Thanks Abdullah
Very distinctive Lebanese flavor. My favorite drinks are rose syrup and Jallab. The desserts are good, the kids like big chunks of meat. Recommended roast lamb, lamb leg and beef cheek. The amount of For Two is really not very big.
Beautiful restaurant, lively atmosphere and insanely delicious food. I cannot recommend this hidden gem enough! A must try! Very fresh and flavourful food Well balanced cocktails Excellent service The general manager Hossep is very welcoming and personable. We cannot wait to come back!!!
Beautiful restaurant with exceptional hospitality! The food is delicious and filling! I would definitely recommend and cannot wait for another visit!

Oakville GEM. This restaurant is an oasis, the atmosphere, service and quality of food exceeded any expectation I had. They were incredibly hospitable, and I will be returning in the future to explore more of their diverse menu. Chef menu came with so many options, it was a perfect way to experience the restaurant.

Amazing Lebanese food and sweets with a twist.. Excellent service with Curtsies and kindness by our waiter, Nidal, and superior.. Recommended for occasions and big groups .
Dining at Laylak Lebanese Cuisine was an incredible experience! The moment we stepped in, we were embraced by the delightful aroma of spices. The mezze platter was an excellent choice to start, with a perfect assortment of dips and appetizers that appealed to all of our tastes. I especially enjoyed the falafel; it was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The atmosphere was vibrant and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Laylak is a fantastic spot for both casual meals and special occasions. Cant recommend it enough!
Theres always room for growth but Leylak has minimized it. Very nice experience.
This place is so amazing and the service is so welcoming. The food is really good and very flavourful. I have never been to a restaurant with this type of food so it was a really great first time experience.
You can t go wrong with the food! Everything from the food to the service is amazing 10/10!!
Laylak Lebanese Cuisine is truly a hidden treasure! From the moment I entered, the warm and welcoming ambiance set the stage for a delightful meal. I started with the baba ghanouj, which was simply divine, and followed it up with their mixed grill platter. Every bite was an explosion of flavor! The service was impeccable; the staff was attentive without being intrusive. I highly recommend Laylak to anyone looking to indulge in delicious Lebanese food. I m already looking forward to my next visit!
Loved this place! Great food and service
Very nice place, food is so delicious and the atmosphere is amazing too, very high recommended!
Laylak Oakville and Laylak Downtown Toronto both restaurants offer an exceptional Lebanese cuisine experience. The decor, service, and cuisine. its just remarkably stylish ! Also both locations are ready to accommodate a private or corporate reception and events.
Wonderful atmosphere , great food and service
Laylak is an absolute treasure of Lebanese cuisine that transports you straight to the vibrant streets of Beirut. From the moment you step inside, the warm hospitality and aromatic spices embrace you like a welcoming family. Their mezze selection is nothing short of spectacular - the hummus is silky smooth with the perfect hint of tahini, and the tabbouleh bursts with fresh parsley and bright lemon.
Ohhh, the service and the food was great. What an amazing experience. Will definitely come again !! Food
Laylak offers a wonderful dining experience with a cozy ambiance and attentive service. The Middle Eastern-inspired menu is diverse, and the flavors are bold yet balanced. The mezze options, like the hummus and fattoush, were fresh and well-prepared, while the mains, especially the lamb chops, were perfectly cooked and flavorful. The desserts, such as the kunafa, were a delightful end to the meal. Portions are generous, and the presentation is thoughtful. Overall, Laylak is a great spot for a flavorful and memorable dinner.
One of the best restaurants I have ever been to, amazing food preparations, excellent service and relaxing atmosphere !!
Very good
A truly fine dining restaurant, excellent food & amazing service.
I liked the ambiance, it is very enchanting, and very unique. They serve quality food.
I and my wife have recently visited this restaurant and I have to say it s the best food I have ever tasted, the service was excellent the ambiance was spectacular . I really recommend this place.
WOW, what a great experience at Laylak restaurant in Oakville, I was invited to a dinner recently, The food was exceptional, The service and the atmosphere were top notch . I definitely recommend this restaurant.
A truely wonderful restaurant. Opulent layout and beautiful decorations set this restaurant apart from others. A modern design all while keeping the old traditional middle eastern taste. Service is always impeccable and the staff is very friendly. I would definitely recommend.
very delicious and beautiful atmosphere
I had an amazing experience at Laylak. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was top-notch. The ambiance was perfect. Looking forward to dining there again with my family and friends.
Laylak Restaurant serves tasty, authentic Lebanese food. The staff are friendly and make you feel welcome. A great place to enjoy good food and warm service.
The food was average (some good) but doesn t justify the price tag. The ambience is amazing. The server however was very uninterested and it showed. She got the appetizers and mains at the same time no questions asked. The mains were reheated so the shrimp and falafel became a little dry and lost their crispness. Our drinks came later and had to ask for them (they forget probably). It was my wife s birthday and it wasn t the evening i expected, considering what we ended up paying. Could have ordered through an iPad and that might have been better.
food was fantastic and the service was amazing. The manager was super friendly and a very easy going!
Great food and phenomenal service by Abby.
Great evening only outdone with spectacular service. Thank you Abbe
The food was phenomenal. We had the kefta kebab, lamb tenderloin, grape leaves, and some dips. The highlight was definitely the fattoush salad. The service was excellent as well - our server Abby took very good care of us and the owner came in to personally check on us. Took one star off from the atmosphere because the music was quite loud and we requested for them to turn it down on two occasions. Besides that, it was great.
Amazing food. Wonderful staff.
My boyfriend and I came in for dinner and were really impressed by both the friendly staff and the lovely atmosphere of the restaurant. It was such a beautiful setting, and the food arrived quickly. Everything was delicious, and I ll definitely be returning!
First time here. Abby was our server. Such a pleasant girl and acknowledged a birthday at the table without being asked. I ll be back.
Abby our server was amazing! Very attentive and knew our needs. Made my birthday special

Every bite was delicious, and the presentation was beautiful. A special mention goes to our server, Abdullah, who went above and beyond to make our evening memorable. He was attentive, friendly, and made excellent recommendations. His warm demeanor and professionalism truly elevated the entire dining experience. Laylak is a gem, and I ll definitely be returning.

The service, food, and atmosphere were amazing. Arianna was our server and she was so sweet and mindful, particularly conscious of allergies at our table. 10/10 would come again.

Moe(bartender) is the man. He was quick and very professional and helped us with the food selection. Highly recommend this place.
Amazing food and service! Loved it so much we will be hosting an event here with close family and friends.
Definitely recommend the dips! Abby, our server, was very helpful and friendly. Will be back to try the desserts next!
My family had a very pleasant experience, starting from when we got in to when we left with very full bellies. Our server, Abby, had every intention to provide excellent service and was very good with our son. Now, onto the food. Oh.. my.. goodness. If youve ever tried typical babagaboush or toum, completely erase what you know because these dips are honestly some of the best Ive ever had. The flavours culminate into this very complex aromatic blissful experience in your mouth. I have never been so on the verge of happy tears as when I came here. Of course, I was super hungry when I came here so that does affect my opinion but I doubt anybody would disagree that the food here is delicious as heck. My first time here but I intend to come back to try everything on the menu. If youre willing to experiment and try new foods, do it here. You will not be disappointed! Kid-friendliness: We brought our son to the restaurant and had a great time. As most parents know, its difficult to manage children while eating; with regards to that, Abby was very friendly and kept our son entertained with her waves and smiles. He was content throughout the whole of our meal!
The food are amazing. And our server Abby is so sweet. Food
Ambience was amazing! Food was so delicious and the service was impeccable. We had a great experience thanks to abby.
Abby was fantastic. Attentive and patient. Hallumi was great.
Great food and service, thanks to Abby!
Abby was the best server

Really nice place for a date night or girls night. Our server Abby was so welcoming and overall just amazing. Really enjoyed my time at Laylak Food : 5/5
Abby went above and beyond in service . Food quality was great .
Best food and service ever best Lebanese restaurant in Canada
Still here and had to give it 5 stars right away. The food is incredible. If I could give it 10 stars I would.
Gem of a place hidden on a strip mall on Rebecca St. Fantastic food coupled with impeccable service and chic ambience. Will definitely be coming back! Thanks Benson and team for a wonderful night.
Thank you to laylak for the amazing service, and beautiful atmosphere! Everyone was very helpful for a recent event I had and the food and space was perfectly set up! Will defiantly be holding more events here!
Visited here two weeks ago. Love the ambiance. Nice comfortable seating for the whole family. Meat was excellently marinated and cooked well. Dips and sauces were very tasty. Staff was very nice and pleasant to deal with. Will definitely be coming back again. Thank you for a lovely experience. Dietary restrictions: Full Halal Menu Parking: tons of free parking
The mix grill was so bad
I was really looking forward to dining here, but the food was a major letdown. Everything we ordered was bland and lacked any real flavor. The main dish was overcooked and dry. It felt like no effort was put into seasoning or presentation. For the price, I expected a much better experience. I don t think I ll be coming back or recommending it to others.
My husband I went for our anniversary dinner and it was the perfect night. Decor is beautifully done. Ambience was perfect for a date night. Servers were friendly and attentive
Amazing food and service. Ambiance was great. Service was quick and efficient
Food is amazingly delicious! Staff is so friendly and nice! We loved it here!!
Great atmosphere and super friendly staff. Had a pleasure to meet with Hossab, great person. Food is superb! Food : 5/5

It s one of the best restaurants I ve been food is really good and benson the manager of this restaurant he s really energetic fun and welcoming person, he truly made our experience better with his welcoming energy and if you wanna come to a Lebanese restaurant pls check this restaurant, the people working here and the staff are extremely nice people Love laylak!!

Truly a sewer person, had really fun time!
This place is so beautiful and food is amazing, one of the best Arabic restaurants in the gta. Our server Ariana was very polite and patient and the manager Benson gave us a very enthusiastic welcome, he is very energetic and funny. The restaurant decoration is very aesthetically pleasing, I definitely recommend.
10/10 totally recommend! thank you benson and ariana Food : 5/5
We hosted a private event at Laylak and the experience exceeded our expectations. The manager, Benson, despite being busy with other guests in the main room went out of his way to ensure everything was perfect, and his attention to detail made our guests feel truly valued. Excellent service, great atmosphere, and outstanding food. Highly recommend Laylak
Loved the atmosphere and the food
Benson was very pleasant. Service was very good
service was amazing, benson did an amazing job insuring we had a great time and was hospitable the whole time.
This spot was amazing. Staff was very friendly and the service was outstanding. Benson, was very hospitable and ensured we were all satisfied.
I had an amazing dining experience! The food was outstanding, and Benson provided excellent service as our waiter. I will definitely be coming back again!
Very nice place. The atmosphere was clean. Service was amazing, and Benny was a great host, very attentive and kind. 10/10 experience.
Its a beautiful place. Food and service was great. Issues: -Their water is bottled. I wasnt provided the option for tap water. I was charged $9.00 for water -Tappas isnt my favourite style of dining.
We had a great date night out at Laylak! I had been to the Toronto location before and was so happy the one in Oakville was just as good. We enjoyed the beetroot labneh salad, halloumi, kibbeh, and moghrabieh. They have beautiful and very tasty mocktails, and an extensive menu of wine and other cocktails. A great place for a special occasion or date night out!
Choose this restaurant to celebrate my birthday. Never been before and was delighted with the experience. Friends came from 30 minutes to 2 hrs away to join, and all raved about it saying they would be back. Why? From the moment we arrived the staff were engaged, kind, helpful, courteous, and overdelivered on service . Left us feeling like VIPs. We choose the suggested sample menu to be served family style allowing us to try many of the restaurants offerings and there was not one dish that we did not enjoy. It was all amazing, tasty and artfully presented. The atmosphere was inviting, cozy and embracing. I left there feeling like I had eaten at a friend s restaurant, well looked after and not wanting to leave. So grateful, it was exceptional and I will be back again and again. If you re looking for a great option for date night, for family diner, for cocktails with friends, I could not recommend an option better to try and make your new favorite option!
I had my birthday dinner here and it was amazing. The food and the service were amazing. The restaurant itself is very very beautiful. The workers were all so kind and the manager is the sweetest man! Definitely recommend coming here for dinner !
Good food but way high prices, average $95 person, rethinking if coming back, there re few more Lebaneses restaurants can be 25-30 % less cost. Good luck. Kid-friendliness: Almost nothing for kids.
Nice place with nice atmosphere
Food here is excellent!! They have tons of vegetarian options and each dish was so flavorful - I can t wait to come back for brunch! Especially lots of options for vegetarians who don t eat eggs. Their cheese rolls were incredible and had truffle honey- to die for. Halloumi was another standout - I m not exaggerating when I say this was the best halloumi I ve ever had at any restaurant (or homemade). It was crispy on the outside but soft and melty inside, and the flavor/quality of the cheese was unmatched. The sundried tomatoes on the plate perfectly complimented it. We tried all the dips, they were all excellent - each one better than the last. I didn t like the whole wheat pita would have preferred a white flour pita but that s just personal preference; it was still well made. The vegan kibbeh was also delicious! Vine leaves & potatoes great too. Their tamarind mocktail was a little too sweet for me though and they said this was their least sweet option. I left most of it, I think they could adjust their mocktails to less sweeter options. We were too full for dessert but the options sounded delicious. Overall an excellent meal and a great addition to Oakville restaurants! Vegetarian options: Tons of options!!
Overall a great experience and I look forward to visiting again soon. The food was delicious. We had the cheese rolls and mix grill which were amazing. The restaurant is beautiful and the service was top notch (one of the best I have seen in GTA). The only reason I gave 4 stars was because the drinks were pricey for the quantity. They tasted good but the quantity didnt justify the price of mocktails for me. But other than the small hiccup, we had a great time and will be looking forward to visiting again soon.
Wow. Just wow. Heard quite a bit about this newer Oakville restaurant and our experience tonight did not disappoint! This was my first experience and my wife s second. As you enter the restaurant the host greeted us warmly with a big smile. The manager, Hossep, greeted us as if we re longtime friends and quickly promised us a phenomenal experience. Our main waiter, Nidal, was fantastic and responsive and took great care of us. The other severs were also friendly and efficient. I read a few reviews about the lacking service but clearly this restaurant has demonstrated how serious they are to become an Oakville/GTA favorite because the service matched the outstanding beautiful decor and food. The food was beautifully presented and tasted so fresh. We ordered the Tabouli salad, warm Kibbeh appetizer, and had the Orfali Kebab and Chicken Tawouk mains. Last but not least, the date cake dessert topped with ice cream, pistachios, and drizzled with caramel tabelside was everything I heard it would be. Thank you Laylak for making our date night so remarkably memorable. We will be back!
Laylak Restaurant in Oakville is a hidden gem! From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by Nidal, who was an exceptional host. His attentiveness and friendly demeanor truly enhanced our dining experience. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish beautifully presented and packed with flavor. The service was impeccable, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and satisfied. The atmosphere was equally impressive cozy, elegant, and perfect for a night out. I highly recommend Laylak Restaurant for anyone looking for outstanding food, excellent service, and a wonderful dining ambiance. We ll definitely be coming back!
We dined at Laylak and chose to go with their set menu since we were a large group. The set menu had a lot of appetizers, multiple dips and hot and cold apps. The variety honestly really enjoyable and what I think makes the set menu worth it. By the time we got the main course I was already quite full. The main was a mixed grill, although all the meats were good I would say the lamb tenderloin was the best (really juicy and flavourful). Lastly the dessert was maybe one of the best parts. The toffee cake served with ice cream was incredible. The other dessert was a cream stuffed roll which was also tasty, I liked how wasnt too sweet. Our server, Abdullah, kept up with our table and did a great job at making sure we got water refills, take out boxes and anything else we needed. Images: Baba Ganoush, Beef Tartare, Table of Apps
Definitely recommend this place to anyone seeking an authentic Lebanese experience. The food and service is outstanding at every level. Thanks to Hossep and Benson! Food

Food was amazing Abdullah service was impeccable
Honestly had a great night. I ve been here before with groups, but this time we went out for a date night. We got their signature drinks, the kibbeh neya & batata harra. The service is great. The vibes are right and everyone s having a good time. We finished our night at the bar with Mo, who was so fun and friendly.
Customer service is over rated , they make you feel like a king for the first few minutes and once you get your table they disappear. Ordered food from here which was pretty average, not worth the price tag at all. Came here to celebrate a birthday but kept ignoring my table. I had very very high expectations of this place, but it was very disappointing. They also forgot to get the drinks we ordered, we had to mention that we were still waiting for a drink.
Great authentic cuisine and amazing atmosphere!
We stopped in here as a last-minute choice and were so impressed with everything! The food was absolutely fresh and delicious, not to mention the generous serving sizes! The ambiance was cozy and welcoming. Benson, the manager gave us a brief explanation of the traditional alcohol drink from Lebanon: Arak which we tried for the first time. What a fantastic experience!!
So called Finest Lebanese restaurant but if you are looking for authentic Lebanese taste its not your destination. No Lebanese chef at all. We tried Chefs special at 65 per head, waitress warned that it would be too much but ended up in small portions of dips, few stale Falafels and. Main meal was not disappointing but was very small portion for three, you can get it for one in other similar restaurants. Its only ambiance with less clothed waitresses and liquor in the name of Halal is not a perfect match. Chicken and beef is not good as it should be only big names and show off in run down strip mall area
High end Lebanese restaurant with top class food and ambience. GM Hossep is managing hands on personally welcoming all guests. Very efficient and friendly service.
Excellent service
Food is amazing, staff is too good.
Vegetarian options: They had excellent grilled vegetable salad, hummus and grilled Cauliflwer and Tahini. Food
Best meal weve had in ages. Exceeded all expectations. Tapas style. Benson the manager was excellent at explaining the menu and making recommendations. Loved trying Lebanese wine. We plan to return soon & often
