We were treated like stars. It was evident that the staff took pride in their work. There are a lot of options on the menu for vegetarians, and they are quite filling. The food somewhat is a resemblance to Middle Eastern food but with a bit of twist. I was surprised that the space was very quiet on a Saturday night considering such delicious food and excellent service.

Food was great service was great , Zehra our waitress was so professional and helpful. She explain almost whole the menu for us and she was so passionate. The Armenian dumplings was our favourite dish, it was made by owners Mom and was so delicious. We will come back for dinner and we plan to try the whole fish. Totally recommended.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Mayrik for the first time, and I am so glad I did. From start to finish the experience was incredible. The food was absolutely delicious. Each dish was perfectly prepared and with so much flavour. The service was equally impressive with friendly and attentive staff, who made us feel right at home! We will definitely be coming back and will be recommending this gem to all our friends and family. Thank you so much 🙂 - Yana

Wow! Wow! Wow! Impeccable food, service and atmosphere we cannot say enough good about our first experience here tonight. To begin with the food was delectable, from the humus, to the kibbeh, the meat all the way to dessert the whole meal was a delight. The chef Tony does a great job with his team adding to the atmosphere of the restaurant it’s great to see the open concept kitchen and get an insight into how some of the food is prepared, this paired with the aromas of the food makes for a treat for the senses whilst waiting for the food to arrive! The waiting staff are amazing and really added to the experience, our servers were friendly yet still Professional as well as being welcoming to children and catered to all our needs with above and beyond devotion. We Finished the evening off with tea and desserts which really was the icing on the cake the atmosphere was so lovely that we actually stayed up until closing. The best food paired with amazing service highly recommend you to try this restaurant!

The appetizers were delicious, especially the baba ghanoush and manti. However, the portions for the meat dishes were quite small, and the prices were high, making it not worth it. Additionally, the main courses lacked flavor. Next time, I will only go for the appetizers.

★★★★
July 20, 2024

Tried their summerlicious menu, the food was nice however the portions were significantly smaller than their regular food portions, for desert and appetizers I understand but for main course it was a bit unfair imo. However, the food was delicious and staff were nice.

We were looking to eat Mediterranean food and stumbled across Mayrik. We figured we would give it a try and we are sure glad that we did! The food was incredibly flavourful. We had a lovely lunch, which included the Trilogy (babagnoush, labneh, and muhhhamara)- so flavourful and the pita- AMAZING! We also had the grape leaves which were over the top with flavour and the vegetarian platter. The food was delicious and the service was awesome- our waitress was very attentive and the food came out fairly quickly. If you're looking to try out a new place that offers food bursting with flavour- then give it a try!

Thomas was our waiter and he was exceptionally polite and attentive, even during a peak dinner period. The atmosphere was romantic and intimate. Perfect date restaurant! The appetizers were among the best i have had at a Mediterranean resto. I am giving the food only four stars though because the chicken was bland and for the price of the meal, it should have been better. Other than the chicken, the food was excellent.

This place was very disappointing. I went with three others, and none of us were satisfied. To start, its not authentic Armenian food, and the prices are way too high $25 for a small portion. The atmosphere felt gloomy, the tables weren t clean, and the service was poor; the woman serving us kept giving incorrect information. I definitely wouldn t go back.

November 21, 2024

Terrible experience at this place! There was a large, rude man (seemed like he worked there, maybe the manager?) who completely ruined our visit. He was loud, had no manners, and didn t seem to care about the customers at all. When we politely mentioned an issue with our order, he dismissed us with an attitude and didn t offer any solution. It felt like he was more interested in arguing than helping. Honestly, it s not worth putting up with such unprofessional behavior. Definitely won t be coming back!

I have only ever ordered from Mayrik, and honestly, this place is a gem. In a city with a below-average food scene, Mayrik promises flavor, texture, and top-notch quality food. They offer fresh and crisp flavors, from their meat down to the dressing for the garden salad. Everything is a pleasure to eat. I am obesssed.

I recently dined at Mayrik, and from the moment I stepped in, I knew it would be a memorable experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a perfect blend of modern and traditional touches that set the tone for an incredible evening. The service was top-notch, with the staff attentive and knowledgeable, always ready to offer great recommendations and explain the dishes in detail. They made us feel truly welcome, adding to the overall enjoyment of the night. But the real star of the evening was the food. It was nothing short of extraordinary! Every dish was bursting with unique flavors, blending spices and ingredients in ways that completely blew me away. Each bite introduced something new and exciting, a true celebration of diverse culinary traditions. The depth and complexity of the flavors were just out of this world unlike anything Ive tasted before.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our food and drinks. My daughter has a nut allergy and they were happy to accommodate. Out of all the 5 star restaurants we tried in Toronto, none were as fresh and delicious as this one. The quality of each dish was superb and we are so glad we ventured out of the city to give this a try! We are visiting from the States and glad we dined here during our one week stay. The owner is engaging and a pleasure to speak with. Thank you, Aram!

Had a delightful experience at this Armenian restaurant. Had a weekday vegetarian dinner here and was happily surprised by the quality of food, ingredients and the visually enticing appearance of the dishes. The oyster mushrooms and loaded cauliflower were great but the winner was the babaghanoush dip. Very different and interesting from other Mediterranean eateries that I have tried and their Pita breads are soft and buttery. The owner Aram was a charming host who came down and chatted with us and told us interesting things about the dishes as well as the heritage . Were so intrigued by this place, we will definitely come back again for more and try their meats especially the fish and the kebabs as recommend by the owner.

We went to Mayrik yesterday for lunch. It was our first visit. Zara, our delightful and friendly server explained everything on the menu. The food was exceptionally delicious. The atmosphere is comfortable and relaxed. The salads have outstanding flavor, the chicken is brimming with deliciousness. The prices are very reasonable. My friend Martin talked all about the great meal as we walked up Bsyview. The fries were fluffy on the inside and crisp on the outside. Special praise for our server Zara who made us feel so welcome. We also want to thank the kitchen team for the outstanding food. Mayrik is now one of our favourite neighbourhood restaurants in Toronto. We look forward to returning there to try everything on the menu. Thank you again for such an enjoyable day.

Had an incredible time at this restaurant! Walking into Mayrik feels like stepping into a chic & trendy cabana party The restaurant pays homage to a mother s kitchen cooking traditional Lebanese-influenced dishes with a modern twist. The dishes I recommend: Start off with the Trilogy (hummus, babaganoush & muhammara) which are all dips made in house from scratch, as well as fresh pita bread straight from the oven. Also enjoyed the kubba filled with ground beef & halloumi rolls stuffed with the most high quality halloumi cheese For Meat Lovers Try their chicken kebab & my personal fav - the Lula kebab served with a special Aleppo red pepper pita! Outstanding and succulent kebabs that melt in your mouth. Dessert - Definitely recommend the Kunafa - katayifi pastry stuffed with Akawi and mozzarellla, orange blossom syrup, Pistachio crumbs. The best way to end the mea & truly exceptional. Loved my experience and definitely would recommend!

Our server was friendly, gave good recommendations, was attentive but not hovering. They brought out dessert with a candle for my friend who was celebrating a birthday. Would definitely go back!

May 21, 2024

The food is amazing for sure, but not worth all that money, like why is it that expensive? And you have $$ on Google Maps, why not $$$ to let people know. Secondly, I came last month with a family, the total on the reciept he gave us was 260 something, now Idk why it became 280 after he put it in the system, but I am assuming he took gratitude, but no problem. I make it split, so I pay via phone and give rest Cash. He even took another 30 dollars in Cash, and said that should cover it like bro, is the managment not paying enough? I dont understand, and you are just a server, why all that for the money? You couldve just asked us to tip, not just take it and pretend like I am an idiot. Because I am not, and I discourage everyone I know to go to that Restaurant. Aside that the food takes AGES to come, also he didnt say that, he said, 20-30 mins, took about an hour. Like I am not even disappointed, I just dont know what to say. Anyways. Food is good but be careful not to get scammed by the server and ask him more than once how much is the food. This is the first restaurant in Canada that I go to and they do this weird stuff.

We were there a couple of nights ago and had the most delicious meal. We started off with the trilogy appetizer and shared the chicken skewers, cauliflower (which is a must!) and falafel. We had a bottle of their Spanish White wine, which was not on the menu, but was highly recommended by Jonathan our wonderful and attentive server. Overall, a wonderful experience, from the initial greeting upon walking in, the VERY attentive staff, to the entire meal; from start to finish we felt as if we were the only ones there (yet we were not, as the place was packed). 5 STARS all the way!*****

April 21, 2024

Went on a Friday around noon for lunch. Took over an hour after ordering for our mains to come out as there were literally only two people working in the entire restaurant (one sever, one cook) during the lunch hour rush. We got duped into ordering the off menu sharing platter which turned out to be three meat skewers a bowl of rice and a salad. I was shocked to see that they charged $75 for this (before tax and tip). My fault for not asking what the price was. I didn t complain and paid my bill, but this was insane. Don t fall for this.

I was looking for a Mediterranean cuisine when i came across this place. I absolutely loved the environment and the service by the most welcoming host/server here. The food had unique recipes and i loved the variety of items on the menu. Few things to improve about this place would be staffing. They were understaffed for a weekend night and although the server made sure we are served on time and properly I could see that he had to rush and stress out. The kebab and the chicken was also too salty to the point that you couldnt really taste the food. The items were also overpriced for the portion. Overall experience was amazing.

March 21, 2024

Excellent meal and great service! We tried the mante (Armenian dumplings), brussel sprouts, seared akawi cheese, fatoush salad, lamb, cauliflower dish (qarnabit), Lula kebabs and fresh bread. Fatoush was well seasoned and mante was very flavourful. The beef and lamb were well seasoned and cooked to perfection. I would definitely recommend this place for lunch or dinner! Desserts were also great. We tried the baklava and kunafa and both were delicious without being too sweet.

We had a wonderful meal at Mayrik. We tried their hummus, Armenian dumplings-manti, beef and chicken, and fatoush salad. The hummus was delicious served with fresh bread (must try). Fatoush was well seasoned with fresh sumac. The manti was flavourful and you could tell the dough was homemade. The chicken was so tender and not dry at all with lots of flavour. Finally the beef was well seasoned and cooked. My partner and I would definitely recommend this place for lunch or dinner, the vibes are great! Service was quick and very nice!

Got their winterlicious menu. It was $55 plus tax. Restaurant is quite dim inside, but staff and service is top notch. The steak, Chicken, and Armenian beef, for the entrées were so flavourful and delicious. Dessert was just okay, portion was quite small. My suggestion, for the appetizer is to get the hummus, so flavourful and big portion.

My first experience at Mayrik was very memorable. I was there for a private party and left wanting to return very soon! Aram and his staff were wonderful: very personable and attentive. Each of the dishes served was delicious: appetizers included hummus, stuffed grape leaves, falafel with tahini sauce, and fattoush salad. And the main course, not found on the menu but which the chef developed for the person being celebrated was excellent: a much loved Armenian dish called kufteli yakhni, butter-filled kufte balls served in a yogurt soup topped with minty melted butter. If you like Middle Eastern cuisine, Mayrik is worth a visit for their unique takes on traditional dishes, including ones not often found on menus. I cant wait to come back on my next visit to Toronto! Vegetarian options: There are a number of delicious vegetarian options and I got to try: hummus, fattoush, falafel. Each of these was really good. The hummus was silky smooth. The fattoush was seasoned just right. And the falafel was perfectly fried: crispy on the outside with a soft interior and excellent flavor. Parking: Parking might be challenging at times for such a busy and popular area. That being said I was able to find free street parking less than a block away on a Sunday afternoon. Most of the time the only parking options will be paid street parking. Wheelchair accessibility: This venue is wheelchair accessible: from the entry to the wheelchair accessible washroom.

Went for my moms birthday with 20+ people. First off, the food was phenomenal. Pita is fresh made in house. It is the perfect combo of crispy and chewy. Labneh, babaganouj and hummus was delish. The dumplings were also very tasty. Lamb and fish were top notch. Everything we had was amazing. I cant remember the last time I ate that much or that well. The service was also fantastic. Servers are very attentive and friendly. The owner is also a great guy! Highly recommend!

We came here to try the summerlicious menu but so many things on their regular menu looked good too so we decided to pick our own dishes. The service was really good and super attentive. We got their dips, tabule, manti dumplings, akawi cheese, batata harra, adana kabab and lamb chops. And kunafa for dessert. The manti dumplings, and akawi were a stand out. The only thing we didn t enjoy is the kunafa only because we make the best at home. Their patio and vibe is really nice and we d def come again.

We live nearby and we are kicking ourselves for not trying this spot sooner. I ordered Mante (Armenian dumplings) which had a healthy dose of Sumac and Zaatar for lots of flavor, along with a Fattoush salad and Batata Hara. The Armenian beer was a nice little treat with dinner since I havent seen it elsewhere. Everything was delicious, and the service was excellent. We will definitely be bringing friends here to try it out ASAP.

This place used to be amazing. Went here in 2021 and 2022 and the food was amazing and the service was second to none (I believe the server at that time said she was the proprietors family member if I remember correctly). We returned recently and the prices have gone up by about 25-30%...which yeah fine, inflation and whatnot. But the drop in service levels that accompanies this is simply inexcusable. Like honestly, the older gentleman serving us...sorry, I mean man, there was nothing gentlemanly about him... made it feel like I made a personal affront to his honour by not ordering the steak (I LIKE the kebab and I always order that, I am sooo sorry that I ordered something thats listed at $30 on your menu as opposed to the steak thats $50...like if its such a loss maker why do you have it on the menu my guy?). Despite the guy treating me like I violated his family honor or something, I still tipped him 15% (do you remember when this was the tip for good service in Ontario?!) on a $110 bill, and the guys reaction was like I held him up or something!! And can I add this was on a weeknight when there was like 3 other people in the entire restaurant? Like, wow. So yes, if you plan on spending $200 here and tipping $100 on top of that for some judgemental douchebag to not judge you, please go ahead. The only reason I rated this 3 stars instead of one was the poor young guys in the kitchen who took enough pride in their craft to keep making amazing food. But whoever the guy was serving us, maybe he should retire because there is job for him on Canadian idol taking over the judgemental douchebag role. Find your calling, my dude...I just hope I dont see you in a customer-facing role elsewhere

The food was okay, very homey. Flavours across all dishes were very similar. Kebab main came with no sauce and I found it to be very dry. Dumplings were delicious, but presentation looked like that of my great aunt. Could be elevated. I would likely order take out again as I found the music and guests to be quite loud. At one point, there were 5 tables occupied and two of the tables had people on video calls (no fault of the restaurant), that combined with the loud music was not my vibe. Server was friendly but service was a little slow.

Absolutely two thumbs up recommended place to go for an amazing Armenian food. The restaurant is tastefully decorated with traditional Armenian pieces yet the place looks modern. The food knocks you down from the first bite, delicious and sometimes never tried anywhere. Again, highly recommending for ethnic Armenian food and a nice choice of cocktails, wines, and beer. Elegant place, reminded me some restaurants in New York.

Accidents happen right? Every now and then, despite a delicious meal, something happens over the course of the evening and that makes or breaks the experience. The evening we dined at Mayrik their payment system was playing up and we were charged for another tables meal. The restaurant staff handled it with grace and rectified it immediately. Not only did we enjoy a delicious meal which came in good time, as well as genuine and warm hospitality, our server made sure the issue at the end of the evening was resolved promptly, and she gave us a sincere apology for the mix up. Some businesses just know how to handle bumps in the road professionally and Mayrik is one of them.

I gave one star, just because there is no option to give 0 stars! This was one of the worst restaurants I have ever been to in Toronto. They aced every feature that a horrible restaurant might have. - The atmosphere is depressing - The staff are rude - service is super slow, we were the only customers today, and had to wait 40 minutes for our food. - The portions are ridiculously small, maybe like an appetizer in a normal restaurant (see photo) - The beef plate had 4 small pieces of meat, and was 23$. The stake plate, which was supposed to be 6 oz, was barely 3 oz. Too late for us, save yourselves.

Our diverse team from the University of Toronto Scarborough viewed the menu and immediately decided that this was the place to be. The entire experience was incredible. The owner, management, wait staff, chefs, bartender ( need to shout out everyone) treated our team with care and respect. They shared stories about each item so that we could make meaningful connections and treated us like we were family. Nothing was too much to ask and the portions were generous. With each dish we continued to say we are coming back! A GIANT THANK YOU to the Mayrik team for treating us with such hospitality, grace, and care. Truly a place we will visit again and again!

We came here for Sunday brunch. You could smell the downstairs bathrooms in the eating area. We all ordered Americanos and the Shakshuka. The Americanos seemed very watered down and were translucent. They werent listed on the menu but we were shocked to get the bill to discover they were $4 each. The Shakshuka was horrible - completely unseasoned, flavorless and dry. It was basically hard-boiled eggs on a plate with no sauce - see pic attached. My friends were shocked by the womens bathroom as there were no functioning toilets (one was missing a handle altogether and a broken stall lock) and no hot water was available to wash their hands. Both bathrooms also appeared to have not been cleaned in quite some time. I would not recommend going here for their brunch/lunch service based on our experience. But I cannot speak to their dinner service or food.

Went on a Saturday. The staff was super nice and kind enough to prepare brunch dishes for us, despite them only doing brunch on Sundays. Our server recommended we get things to share. We got the hummus, Shakshuka and khachapuri. The pita with the hummus was a little small in portion, so we had to order some more. The hummus was very smooth and has a great texture. The khachapuri and Shakshuka were also both very tasty. It s not easy to find khachapuri in the city, but this place has a great version of it. After our meal, we were super stuffed and despite wanting to try some Armenian dessert, we had no space to do so. Overall, I recommend this place for their exceptional service and great food. Vegetarian options: None of our dishes contained meat, but did have eggs.

Omg! I don t know how to describe my experience in Mayrik. I wanted to treat my friend so I reserved the table in advance. I went there, no one was there to welcome us. I saw chef was walking around and he did not have a menu to give us, he told us to choose from website. Anyway the waiter/server came and gave a menu. We asked for real Armanian dish from breakfast menu. He suggested Fuller or something which has chick peas. After half an hour, he told us, sorry, there is no chick peas so we have to choose something else. Why could not he come to us right away and said this? He waited half an hour to tell us that. That means we had to wait more time in there. Our choice was already limited and it was hard to choose what else to order since we could not order anything with chick peas. The food came really late. You will see the photo of my order which was garlic yogurt and poached eggs. It cost $18. I did not find anything special on that dish, it s so plain, I bet I can make it better. My friend ordered Shashuka, it tasted good though. Just to let you know their cutleries don t include spoon, just imagine having poached egg with fork and everything is falling in between the gap. I just wanted to leave the place. I asked for bills. He brought the machine. I was looking at the receipt and machine amount, don t match. I asked him why my receipt is $46 something and machine shows $54. I asked is tips included which is not showing in the receipt. He said I might press the tips on the machine which I did not touch yet. Anyway I saw Shashuka costed us $20(I think I saw it was$16 or $18 on the menu), plus he charged us $4 extra for Shijouk(I don t know the exact spelling) which he did not mention before that he will charge extra. We ordered Shashuka only, we did not know what Shijouk. The place was kind of empty. I did not have to reserve in advance. I don t know how famous this place is. I chose to have an exceptional experience. Yes, I had an exceptional experience which was so awful that I never had in life. I rarely write bad review of any places. If I don t like any places, I skip the review. After spending $54 for nothing and I had to come home and make my meal to fulfil my hunger, so I don t want anyone to waste their money on this. It s waste of time also, waiting that long for food. Come on! How do you run a business without having your ingredients?
