Tabule Middle Eastern Cuisine in Toronto

Staff was great and it s a nice restaurante to dine-in. However, the experience with my dish and bill wasn t great. I ordered a kofta with vegetables (an add-on). It was disappointing to see such a small ration of veggies, despite paying more. They also charged me an iced tea that I didn t order (I only realized after leaving the restaurant).

I often find the food to be a bit salty, although it s otherwise delicious. The service started off slow but seemed to pick up and be smoother throughout the evening. Overall it was a great experience.

Top notch restaurant in all respects. Food and service excellent.

Always delicious, vegan friendly, good atmosphere Vegetarian options: Well documented vegan vs vegetarian Food : 5/5 |

As an uber driver I picked up 2 order with good manners in the evening time and it was snowing as well when i picked up the order without any reason they gave me negative feedback, i called them 3 times to remove it and they said maybe we did with mistake but no actually they are racist people i have ever seen because Tabule and burger slayer located in the same area and both of them gave me negative feedback i have completed hundreds of deliveries but only these racist people gave me negative feedback which actually they deserve.

Rude service never try to come here

Don t ever come here if you respect your self

Rude service never come here

Great food! Loved it a lot!

The food is delicious. We are regulars. The garlicky tomato dish is ridiculously tasty and their family dinner for 4 easily feeds 6!

The place is a well established restaurant offering quality Middle Eastern (Lebanise) food. Nice patio. Better quality food than many Middle Eastern restaurant. The restaurant offers convenient take-out. We are going there since 2007, back when it had only 1/2 of the current space (due to their success, they added the adjoining space.

Great food and brilliant service. A great selection of well-prepared and authentic dishes. The eggplant was divine! Vegetarian options: Eggplant is highly recommended!

Extremely disappointed with the experience I had today. Was turned away from staff because we were 8 people. Not even a suggestion on splitting tables. The worse? I had family visiting and we spoke greatly about this place. Probably not coming back after this.

Came to pick up order and he said they give it to somebody else. Didn t own up to his mistake. Terrible customer service.

The rice was so good, didn t think I could finish but it was too delicious to resist! Lamb chop was also cooked to perfection, love the charcoal taste.

There was a hair in the food and I asked them to change it but they did not accept and said they had enough customers and did not need anyone, they are very rude

Amazing service and food

Everything is good, and the staff is so helpful. Thank you for your patience

About a week ago, I ordered the chicken livers with Majura and vegetable skewer from Uber eats. I was extremely disappointed as I have had this meal in the restaurant at Bayview Village and it was amazing. This was overly salty mushy and also missing the onions that come with the Majura, I definitely will not ever have this again

OMG! what a place and where do I start?! I went to this place just yesterday and I loved the food, from the quality to the service this place is TOP TIER!!! My take out server/person Tasha was an example employee. She was welcoming, nice and took the time to explain everything! The freshness of the food was just a perfect pairing to the experience I had! As an experienced food critic I would highly advise all to visit this place and partake in the cultural dining experience!! Good job team and wishing you all the best in the future!

I had middle eastern foods before but never knew it can be this good. Service was great as much as the food

This has been my go-to for good take out for years now. The fried eggplant, falafel, and garlic tomatoes are some absolute favourites. They handle celiac s disease very well and offer fantastic gluten free options. Everything is fresh and flavourful. Dining in restaurant is very nice too - the staff are great and they have a fantastic cocktail menu. The one downside is they ve redone the decor at this location, and it s quite bright and sterile feeling now. I recommend takeout or going to their downtown location if you want a nice ambience. Dietary restrictions: Good gluten free options and careful preparation

Had dinner there. Food was fresh, delicious and plentiful. I suggest trying one of their cocktails. They are very unique and tasty. And the service was excellent. Definitely recommend this restaurant. Food

Tabule has the best best kebab that I have ever had.

Great food, great drinks, great service by the staff. Plenty of food in the prix fixee menu

Great food and environment. One of our favorite restaurants. Special thank you to Ryan who took our experience to the next level. We had a party of 10 and he made our night! Food : 5/5

Tender lamb, fresh tabboule, friendly service.

So good. Everything I ate was so good. I am impressed by the falafels. Highly recommend

Lovely atmosphere, very friendly staff, portions are quite large and reasonable prices

Superb. I have been coming here for almost 20 years. It doesnt disappoint. Great menu, good wine, fantastic service. Come and enjoy it!

One of the greatest restaurants in Toronto. We live in Ottawa and whenever we visit Toronto we have dinner in this restaurant.

Beef and lamb mix is inedible and smells!

If I could rate 10 stars I would. Can t express how incredibly priced and delicious the food was! Incredible atmosphere for a date night, girlfriend and I both LOVED the food. The service was incredible too, great conversation. The manager even came out at the end at spoke with us for a few minutes and even brought us out a complimentary desert. 1000% recommend this spot

My boyfriend and I tried this restaurant for the first time today, and it s already our new favorite spot to grab Mediterranean food in Toronto!! The food was delicious and the service was incredible. Would highly recommend you try this spot, and we re gonna be coming here very often :)

Fell sick after eating here

Absolutely phenomenal tasting middle-easten food in Toronto. Great vibrant place in the heart of the City on Yonge, just N of Davisville. Offering classic typical middle eastern specialties on the menu and one cannot go wrong with anything your tummy craves that day, or evening. Crowd is somehow always mixed and full of positive energy, smiles and all, regardless of the age. Service folks are beyond and above, and weve been served by 5 of them! Good tempered and always with a genuine smile, pleasure to talk to and willing to assist. Notable mentions - Ryan & Krish .... Beyond reasonably priced. Eggplant anything is absolutely not to be missed, same is true for Tawuk, Lamb or Lahmeh! side note, Dont think I ever saw a place with that many UberEats orders; it was surreal how many drivers came out with huge carry-out bags during 2+ hours were there.

Physically, its a very nice place. Drinks were quite good. Food was very average, with even the Pita not being very fresh or genuine. One of our Pitas was burnt on the edge as well. At this price point, look elsewhere for high quality middle eastern food.

Surprisingly GOOD . Ordered for delivery and it arrived hot. Good sized portions and tasty too! Impressive.

Everything here was delicious

You guys made our night. Thank you

Wonderful dinner and the service was outstanding.

Ryan was such a fun server- great sense of humour, genuine, attentive but not too attentive if that makes sense! It made the whole evening and experience at the restaurant so much more enjoyable. I ve been here many times and this was my favourite outing!

Came here with a group of 8 and ordered the fixed menu and it was delicious with generous portions. Everyone loved it!

To begin the interior design did not disappoint, excellent use of color choices and full of natural light. We visited for lunch. However I would like to point out that this restaurant/ location was missing the warm welcome that we normally experience in traditional Lebanese restaurants in Lebanon and throughout the Arabian Gulf. Unfortunately there was a lack of attention to detail when our table was prepared and we had to request for it to be re-set. An unclean side dish was delivered to the table and our main courses arrived rather swiftly after we had only JUST begun to enjoy our appetizers (hummus bil lahmeh & halloumi salad). They were not generous with the bread selection. Lack of timing and attentiveness was observed. There could have been more effort to predict when we would be ready to enjoy our main courses or if the ability to predict was not a strong point, they may have simply asked if we were ready. Our main courses: Shish Tawook & Kafta bil banadoura. The French music was lovely, typical Lebanese influence was noted when it came to the art and decor of the restaurant. The smell of garlic infused the restaurant which I found absolutely lovely and had me very excited to enjoy the various dishes. However, there was definitely a sense of something that was lacking as we did not feel the traditional full Lebanese experience. Unfortunately, when brought to the attention of the wait staff regarding the main course that had cooled down while waiting at our table for quite some time, it was taken away to be re-heated . The wait staff realized while bringing out the main courses extremely early that it was too soon however delivered them anyways. This was a first experience for us in our dining experiences locally and abroad. At the time when we were enjoying our appetizers, the restaurant only had two tables occupied so there was no excuse for lack of attention and awareness. Another strange point observed, is that it appeared the managers were using customer tables openly to complete work on their respective laptops. The environment lacked true Arabian hospitality, warmth, kindness and friendliness that we normally observe whilst in Lebanon and throughout the Arabian countries. Families are typically well known in the Arab world based on last names in relation to the area where they are from and it is a very common question to ask. It is also something that middle easterners are proud to disclose and discuss with honour. Considering we spend much time there and share the same country of origin as the owner, I was curious to know where exactly the owner was from and his family name. However, when inquired it was taken very negatively by the wait-staff and we felt a sense of confusion from the staff as though they wanted to imply why we would even ask such a question. On another note, we did hear the kitchen staff on various occasions making excessive noise by dropping items so it seemed they were not being very careful to ensure they were creating a proper dining experience for the guests. Dining is all about the experience. We would have loved to witness more passion from the wait staff, more welcoming approach and less passive aggression when requesting for replenishments (even though we should not have to ask and whichever items are missing from our table should be observed and replenished accordingly).

I went there today and ordered lamb skewer, specifically mentioning that I wanted it well done after I was asked. It took 45 minutes for my food to be served. What was supposed be well done lamb skewer was literally dropping blood. This was the third time I experienced this with Tabule (the other two were Uber orders, which went straight to the garbage). I am very considerate when it comes to reviewing businesses on Google, but I think Tabule deserved this review after the third awful experience.

good good

Renia was an amazing host and food was amazing! Will def be back

The service was 12/10! Renia is amazing!!! Highly recommend. Vegetarian options: Tons of veggie options Food : 5/5 |

Reina was AMAZING! The service, the food, the ambience was great. Would highly recommend visiting this restaurant.

Tabule was an amazing experience with 10/10 food! Renia went above and beyond to make sure our group was well taken care of! Will definitely be back!

Some of the best falafel Ive ever had. Overall everything we ordered was really good and we ll definitely be back. The customer service was amazing - Renia was extremely nice and went above and beyond! 10/10 recommend!!

The food was great but the service was even better! We were a large party but our server Renia was phenomenal, she was attentive, quick and kind! She definitely made our experience so much more enjoyable!

Authentic arabic food Very nice and helpful staff Cozy interior with plenty of space to sit inside or outside Definately recommend this place. Food : 5/5 |

We were group of 4 and tried, kubbeh, labor, fried eggplant and falafel. Cocktails were also reasonably price and tasty.

Nice place, good food, big portions.

Attention was amazing.

Ryan was an experience in itself... If you get a chance to be seated with him.. its a magical experience.. we love the falafel and the ever soo tender Veal... Fantastic ambience with comfy leather sofas and lovely chairs... We will be back and with all their specials. What a 20yr history and KEEP IT GOING!

Ryan was excellent server. Food was delicious and flavorful. Generous portions. Falafel were tender served on lentil rice. Babaganuj, hummus and labni were excellent dips with pita. Vegetarian options: Restaurant is very accommodating to individuals dietary needs.

Although the service and atmosphere was pleasant, the food was much too garlicky for me and I left with a terrible heartburn. I think the dish that was the worst for me was the fried eggplant although I believe there was too much garlic in most of the dishes I ate. If you are sensitive to garlic infused dishes, I would not recommend Tabule.

We were a group of 4 and we had an absolutely amazing experience at Tabule Yonge street . Our hostess Panteha gave us a world-class service. Our other servers were also very friendly! Definitely coming back

I really enjoyed this restaurant. The place is alive with energy, but the music is not loud and overwhelming. The food was spectacular. And, the server, Ryan was attentive and friendly... and he likes RED plaid. The dress code suggested that one might feel comfortable casually dressed up, so I wore my red plaid pants. It was the right decision. Oh... very affordable. I give this place two thumbs up. Signed, Kinga. Vegetarian options: I came with a vegan friend, so this place was perfect. Of course, if you are NOT vegan, there is still everything you will desire.

Tabule Middle offers a great dining experience with a cozy atmosphere and delicious food. The service is excellent, making Tabule a top choice for fans of Middle Eastern food and first-time visitors alike.

Our family loves Tabule. They have the best falafels in the city. They recently made a generous contribution to the Davisville school graduation celebration. The food was delicious and presented beautifully on platters. Received a lot of positive feedback from the parents in attendance. Highly recommend them for catering your events too.

Friendly service and tasty food! They had big portions.

A spectacular meal. Prompt professional service. Lovely calm atmosphere.

We recently hosted a family event at Tabule Midtown. The entire experience from start to finish was great. Kevin and his team made the evening a memorable one for everyone. The food and service were excellent! Many thanks.

Some items were over oily, servers were nice, a long time in preparation

Tabules delicious food never disappoints.

Garlic sauce is the best out there, rice with crispy onions and their meats are all delicious!

Great service and very fresh tasty food!

Kefta was great! Will return.

I like the food a lot and the service was generally rather good. What took me by surprise is that I had to wait some 10+ mins for a check...the place was not busy at the time, so I dont know what to think.

We love it! The place is very pleasant, the food was delicious and the service was impeccable with special attention to Manoela who was very attentive.

Great food and experience overall, everything is fresh and tasty, knowledgeable staff, we were helped by everyone throughout our experience everyone is very attentive, must visit if you love eastern food and try basterma

Vegetarian options: Theres plenty of vegetarian options, like hummus and falafel Food

I recently ordered the tawok for take away from Tabula Food, and overall, it was a good experience. The taste was excellent, and the chicken was delicious. However, I did find the portion size to be a bit small for the price. Despite this, I enjoyed the meal and would consider ordering again.

Unfriendly staff at pick up today

Great smelling food and generously portioned. Theyve also got a nice patio for the summer. Theyll be seeing me again.

The food is food, but portion are small and it is totally overpriced.

Overall, it was a great experience with great food

I ve been a regular since 2016 and while I keep going back for their beautiful, mega tasty food but their staff isn t as great. I ve had a couple bad experiences but since the remodel, it s gotten worse. We got seated at the table closest to the bar, staff kept bumping again my MIL (pretty hard a couple of times) and when I pushed back my chair a bit (like 3 inches, not even that much!) so I would get bumped instead of her, their staff was super rude, told me to push in my chair and didn t care to hear me out.

Vegetarian options: Several options available Food

Had a delicious lentil soup and kefta burger on a brioche bun. Really really tender and juicy. I was thoroughly pleased and the service Amber provided was excellent. Would definitely recommend to friends.

Amazing

A hit and miss on the service and on the food. On my last visit the service was slow and it was not rush hour, and the fried eggplant had a fish taste ( either the pan or the oil used) On average its a good option for Mediterranean cuisine. Food : 4/5

Great food, amazing service and lovely atmosphere. Our waiter was very nice and friendly. the fixed price menu was a good for the quality of the food served. We really enjoyed our lunch there today!

Paint my nuts yellow, their food is so good!

Amazing Mediterranean cuisine, great atmosphere.

Excellent food, will definitely go back@

I went there for my wifes birthday dinner and the food was amazing. We had Falafel, Banaganuj and Lamb skewers and everything was deliciously good. The right quantity at a reasonable price. The lamb skewers with rice is a standout. Had a really nice experience here. We also had a complimentary Kunafa Ashta on the house as a special treat for birthday. The menu at this place is straightforward and the drinks were fantastic, the food was also perfect, reason why they are always busy. !!!Definitely will come back!!!

Very nice place

The taboule could have been better, we added lemon juice and olive oil. The hummus had too much tahini. There are no spiced potatoes (batata harra) on the menu. Otherwise the rest was great, especially the chicken tawouk. Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian and even vegan options in middle eastern cuisine

Atmosphere was good, The restaurant is clean with middle eastern vibe. Well suited for gathering with friends and family. Food we order chicken with salad rice. Had good portion for two if you are a light eater. Felt chicken a bit dry and hard time chewing, could have been more tender and pulpy. Rice was best quality. Only part we loved was Falafel bites and garlic sauce that make up fr chicken experience. Complementary bread not to miss was good too.

Amazing Middle Eastern food, one of the best I had in the past in Toronto.

Alcoholic drinks are too expensive. Donot order. Meat platter was tougher than expected. Mixed platter was not big enough. Slow service as kitchen took too much time. Preset tip of 20% is against my rules I pay tip if service is worth it. Food

Decent size portions for the main. Highly recommend the chicken and lamb plus the babaganuj. Not a big fan of the baklava but the rest was great. Good service as well.

Their refurbishment has created an even better experience at this established eatery. The lighter colours make it brighter and more welcoming. The food remains consistently good and the staff is friendly, knowledgeable and appropriately attentive.

Both service and food are excellent. My daughter, who is very picky, loved the rice. The fried eggplant is wonderful Food

Highly recommended.

Ok. Nothing special

Absolutely delicious food! Will definitely be coming back again and again!

we are regulars at this favourite neighborhood restaurant. Wonderful fresh middle eastern food. prepared to perfection. friendly staff

I had a bad experience when I went family day weekend. I was looking forward to having my usual (lamb skewers). The meal arrived lukewarm . The mujaddara was dried out and when I bit into a grilled zucchini it was mushy. They offered to reheat it but I declined because it was already too dry. The waiter spoke to the manager but the manager decided not to compensate. I was so disappointed

Always a reliable choice if youre craving something filling, fresh and homely.

If you love Mediterranean/ Lebanese food, you need to try this. We tried the falafel platter and tawuk. The food was savory. I found it to be very healthy and enjoyable. Food

Visiting Toronto from small town north and wanted to try some authentic restaurants. My daughter and I loved our meals, so much flavor and servers were grest too. Daughter had the lamb kebabs over salad and I had chicken/salmon kebabs over rice. All 3 meats were delicious, the veggies were cooked to perfection (flavourful and crisp) and the rice which to me us usually just rice, was soooo good!! Well be back next time Im Toronto!!

One of my favourites

Lebanese taste 100/%

Food is flavorful and fresh!!

I ordered from here on Uber Eats and it was BOMB!! The portion size was great, the meats were amazing! I got the tawuk plate and my boyfriend got the lamb pita and the falafel pita, both which were amazing. The food is sooo good and the spices and seasoning are on POINT. The meat is such high quality, the rice was good and not too greasy. I will definitely order again but more important now I want to come in person!

Kevin and Hailey were curated one of the greatest eating experiences for me and my work team. Phenomenal food and service 10/10 would recomend. Always a good time when I come to Tabule. Thank you!

Great service and amazing food

Delicious food and friendly service. The mains are huge. The appetizer trio was a good option so we could try different items and share. Would recommend. Vegetarian options: Vegan and vegetarian food on the menu, such as falafel, eggplant, baba ghanoush, tabule.

Tabule was amazing - from the top notch service to the delicious food, I cant wait to be back!

The restaurant is looking great after the makeover and the food is still amazing.

Angela P was amazing! Super helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. Her recommendations were perfect. We will definitely be back soon

I ordered the habibi cocktail and it was wonderful! The falafel was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend!

Everything is fresh, service impeccable.

One of the best foods I ve tried in Toronto so far!!! The dishes are veeeery juicy and delicious, it is hard not to notice good quality and choice of products! We were very pleased with the service as well, but the food it s something else. Just yummy! Thank you Tabule, keep up the good quality Vegetarian options: Definitely a place to have quality tasty food, considering vegetarian options

We had a staff get-together here and it was exceptional! The rooms are beautifully decorated -- very bright, clean & stylish. The service so friendly and warm and professional. The cocktails were gorgeous to behold and tasty to boot! No critiques on the food either - we had hummus, tabbouleh, baba ganoush & labneh, followed by fried eggplant and cauliflower and outstanding falafel, then platters of lamb, beef & kofta and more. Ended up stuffed and happy and no room for dessert. Recommended for sure!

Great Lebanese place with a lot of gluten free options, nice staff and cool good atmosphere Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options Dietary restrictions: Many gluten free options

My favourite go to for Middle Eastern dips. The food here is so good. The restaurant is tight. But well worth the visit.

My recent experience at Tabouleh left me with mixed feelings. While our server, Melanie, provided an outstanding level of service that truly elevated our dining experience, the same cannot be said for the managerial role undertaken by the hostess, who turned out to be the manager. Despite being visible at the front, there was a distinct lack of acknowledgment on three occasions, making us feel neglected. The first interaction with us was not a warm greeting but rather a hasty reminder about the 6 pm deadline, even though the restaurant was noticeably empty at that time. This initial encounter set an unwelcoming tone that persisted throughout our visit. Melanies professionalism and attentiveness were noteworthy, but unfortunately, the managers demeanor significantly detracted from an otherwise positive experience. Its disheartening when the front-of-house management doesnt align with the excellent service provided by the serving staff. Hoping for improvements in creating a more welcoming atmosphere in the future.

Food was amazing and the service was very attentive. Their pita is one of my favorites in the city!

Tabule is beyond five stars!!! Everything tasted incredibly tasty and authentic! The restaurant, the music and the vibe is fantastic, the salad, the food, drinks and desserts were all top notch!

Great food. Falafels are amazing and so is Tahini.

Food was OUTSTANDING. Food unites us all. Please patronize these peaceful people and break bread together. God Bless Toronto and all of its diversity and cultures.

The falafel were pretty dry otherwise this would ve been a 5 star visit. Loved the service and ambiance

Highly recommend this restaurant! My husband and I ordered the kefta and it was flavorful and tasty. The cardamom honey latte was delicious. I have to give regards to the server- he was so professional, friendly and provided good suggestions as we tried to navigate the menu. Five stars!! (Parking - street parking)

Would recommend!

Tabule restaurant exceeded our expectations. Every dish was a delight, the service was outstanding, and the atmosphere is perfect for a date. Highly recommended!

Amazing food great drinks

The service was excellent, love the lamb chops and shrimp.

Its an amazing restaurant with good price and tasty cuisine and super friendly people. Love the decorations and lights , food was so well-garnished, we ordered orange blossom lemonade which was great , they have many unique juice options .

Our favourite for over a decade!

Loved most of the night except for right at the beginning. We arrived about 20 minutes before our reservation. We initially were greeted by a young woman with red hair, who told us our table was wrapping up and were invited to sit close to the entrance while they wrap up. While they organized that, an older woman confirmed that information. After seated at our temporary table, the same young woman with red hair came by and said unfortunately we cannot seat you at a table inside . We both reminded her of what she told us, which was that our table would be ready soon as the other guests were wrapping up. She swore up and down she didn t say that. After she left, we signalled the older woman (who wound up being our server) and she was quite surprised given that she was clearing the table for us to be seated there. The younger woman came back around and said there s nothing I can do , but immediately we said well we were just told that table is being prepared as we speak. She remained pretty adamant that it was not our table. But we stood our ground. She then pivoted and said honestly i don t know what I said, I m really busy . I found this pretty unprofessional. Thankfully, the older woman who hosted and served us got it all figured out. The rest of the evening was wonderful. And the dishes were fantastic. The rest of the night just made up for the first 25 minutes. Not sure if she was a new employee, but perhaps she needs a bit more training.

This place is amazing. Hard to understand why it s not full 24/7. The KUBBE will change your world. We had one of the best servers in any establishment and love the water pouring glass they use.

Food is always great, I had the egg plant as a appetizer. Nicely cook and great seasoned. The kafta Burger and fries was good, but I found the sauce for the fries very new, even though it was garlic sauce, meaning it was different from a fries with garlic. Overall it was great food.

Best grilled lamb chops ever.

Their food is very good

Amazing experience at this restaurant ! The food was very good, staff are so friendly and attentive !

Loved the food and the staff. Very reasonable.

Pretty good, nothing ground-breaking. Service is awesome.

Good food, great atmosphere!

First time trying Tabule.. definitely a surprise! Lots of gluten free and vegetarian options. I had the baba ganoush, falafes, and the eggplant plate. Everything was delicious. Portions are huge - I would recommend going with a group and share (and please note that warmed it up the next day doesn t taste that good)

The lamb and veal grill was amazing ..we had garlic shrimp as the appetizer and it was super tasty. The service was outstanding.

Went to celebrate my birthday with my closest friends, and it was a great experience. The food was delicious and very generous. I ordered the Tawuk and the chicken was so tasty and juicy, same with the salmon kebab. The vanilla rose tea was so flavourful and aromatic. As for the service, Ryan was absolutely the best, an exceptional service from him, very attentive and friendly. He went above and beyond with our experience. Thank you so much for my birthday dessert! Definitely will come back!

The food is not tasty, very dry. We ordered 2 plates:kufte and other meat. The plates came with a huge portion of tabule salad without taste and the meat dry without any sauce. We did not like it. Also it is pricy for this quality. We did not enjoy. The atmosphere and service are good but without a good food, not worth it. Never again.

Excellent food, we have been to the restaurant and have done catering with them and extremely satisfied. Thank you for the fresh food and your exceptional services.

The food here is good. It s simple and you can just enjoy a solo meal and enjoying the decor. The lamb dish with rice was my go to choice. The cocktails on the other hand is quite dilute. Food : 3/5
