I liked this place and the food, everything was good, especially the server, he was very kind and knows how to treat customers. For new customers I recommend one dish, it is Mirage Kebab, please try it, it is very juicy and tasty . At the end I had a conversation with the owner of the restaurant, he is a nice man and only cares about customer satisfaction and I enjoyed talking with them.

New discovery for me. Beautiful, cozy, restaurant. Stunning food.Sorry I didn’t make pictures of food as our party of five cleared plates to quickly. Service was exceptional and main chef introduced herself to us. They even accommodated my pregnant daughter with food adjustments. Highly recommend this place. It’s unique in every way. Whatever you order I’m sure will be great. We are going back any chance we have. Don’t miss it. Might need reservation at busy time.

I recently dined at Mirage restaurant, a charming Mediterranean restaurant, and I just have to share my experience! From the moment I walked in, the warm ambiance and friendly staff made me feel right at home. I ordered the kebab platter, and it was nothing short of spectacular. The presentation was impeccable—each skewer was beautifully arranged, showcasing a vibrant array of colors from the marinated meats and fresh vegetables. The flavors were bold and delicious. The salad that accompanied the platter was equally impressive, and let’s not forget about the bread! It was absolutely perfect—soft, warm, and just the right amount of chewiness, making it ideal for dipping. Overall, my visit to Mirage was fantastic. The attentive service and beautiful food made for a memorable evening. I can’t wait to return❤️

I had a fantastic dining experience at Mirage. The Fatoush salad was fresh and zesty, with the perfect mix of crunch and tang. The fried eggplant was crispy on the outside and soft inside—absolutely delicious. The lamb shank was incredibly tender, falling off the bone and packed with flavor. Service was top-notch, attentive, and friendly. Highly recommend Mirage for both the food and the excellent service!

Took out a star just for the pricing. But the restaurant is really nice. Food is tasty, and service is very accommodating. The manager or owner came by to help out their new server and also explained really well how we should order. The portions are pretty sizeable, and no dish is boring. Each dish is crafted to perfection, and you can see great effort was taken to keep the flavors true to the ingredients. The cuisine originally has influences from both South Asia and Europe, and you can see some restaurants tone it down but not Mirage. They kept the flavors and depth of flavors real and honest as per the original recipes. Will visit again but have to find an occasion to justify the price.

What a wonderful time we had at Mirage! We went there to celebrate my aunt's birthday, Matthew our host and the owner Essy were so kind and attentive. The food arrived hot and delicious. My favorite was the lamb shank in a tangine, the meat was soft and falls off the bone and the rice is so flavorful. Will definitely bring other friends and come back another time. ❤️

December 7, 2024

This hidden gem sparkles! You can tell the restaurant put a lot of effort into decor, lighting, and atmosphere. Its reminiscent of hip restaurants in the King West area and has become our local weekend staple. The food is consistently great (we always get the Koobideh Kebab) and its still relatively easy to get a table. The fact that a restaurant like this isnt covered in Toronto Life magazine and isnt on the radar is reflective of how little known the Bayview / Leaside area is for most Torontonians. Definitely our favourite restaurant on this stretch (along with The Daughter on the same block). Some of the best fries weve had in Toronto too.

This was a great find for us! Mirage is a fusion of many Mediterranean cuisines and had surprised us with fresh takes on classic dishes. We enjoyed the lentil soup, the tagine, the grilled fish, and the zaatar. The tagine really stood out for us and was unique for us. The service was excellent and they accommodated our family and baby as much as possible. They went out of their way to help reheat food for our child. The owner came out to greet us as well. Its worth a try if you are looking for something fresh! The interior is well designed and the ambience is pleasant. I did not like their coffee though, haha. Im a coffee snob though... Kid-friendliness: They had a kids menu but we just feed our baby the same stuff we ate.

I visited Mirage for Sunday lunch and overall had a mixed experience. The service was good, and the starters were fantastic, especially the Labneh dip, which was served with freshly baked flatbread that was incredibly delicious. However, my main course was underwhelming. I ordered the shrimp with rice, but the shrimp were overcooked and dry, and the portion was quite small, leaving me still hungry by the end of the meal!

This is an amazing place to come for a special occasion (one time I was there, there were simultaneously a 50th anniversary, an engagement, and a 7th birthday!) or any time you want to enjoy lovingly made, utterly delicious Mediterranean/Middle Eastern food. From the poetry carved into the wooden tables to the blue velvet banquettes and alabaster candle holders, to the friendly and professional multilingual service, to the expertise of chef Mary, you are in for a treat here. Mary and her husband are absolutely dedicated to ensuring you enjoy your visit. This is an undiscovered Leaside treasure. Vegetarian options: While this place comes through big time for people who love their kebabs, vegetarians can still enjoy the wonderful array of Middle Eastern vegetarian offerings from hummus to falafel to roasted cauliflower, babaganouj, lentil soup- and for lacto vegetarians try the labneh. For ovo vegetarians, don t miss the mirza ghasemi! Dietary restrictions: There are several gluten free apps and entrees. Unfortunately the Muhammara dip contains bread crumbs, but the hummus, babaganoush, and other dips are not to miss. Just ask for veggies to dip them with. Kid-friendliness: There s a kids menu and the servers are unfailingly kind to youngsters. And for birthdays of any age, they love to make it special - so make sure you let them know and order dessert.

Excellent service, I would say, one of the best hospitality, variety of delicious foods! Totally different from other places! I am so glad that my niece who is a food lover recommended Mirage.

August 21, 2024

I have never been more disappointed in a dining experience. The food was bland and tasteless, resembling cafeteria leftovers rather than authentic cuisine. The service was shockingly slow, with waiters who seemed more interested in chatting amongst themselves than attending to customers. The ambiance was dismal, with outdated decor and uncomfortable seating that made me feel like I was in a forgotten corner of the 90s. To top it all off, the prices were exorbitant for the quality of food and service provided. Save your money and your taste buds steer clear of Miraj Restaurant unless you enjoy wasting time and money on mediocrity.

Visited this restaurant for dinner based on the amazing reviews and was not disappointed! As a Persian myself, I have tried many Persian restaurants around the city and was extremely impressed by the quality and the flavours of all of the dishes we tried. I love that they offer not only traditional Persian dishes, but they also add different cultural twists to the dishes. We had the beyti kebab, ghormeh sabzi, Moroccan kebab, and mirze ghasemi, all amazing making it impossible to pick a favourite. The kebabs were tender, juicy, and fully of flavour and portion sizes were excellent. Aside from the quality of the food, the service was excellent.

Safa and Maryam, the wonderful owners, made us feel incredibly welcome, as if we were part of their own family.

We came here in a big group and it was a great experience for us. The restaurant staff were very helpful and the food was amazing. We got the Fattoush salad and the Special Kebab (chicken with beef) and they were amazing. I recommend getting the kebab if you come, the salad was done in a way Ive never seen before where its inside a bread shell and you have to break it. Overall everyone enjoyed their food and no one had any complaints. I recommend giving this place a try if youre looking for a spot with good food and a cozy vibe.

the food is not tasty. The waiting time for an order is 40 minutes, the ventilation is poor, there is a smell of food from the kitchen inside the restaurant. The cocktails are not worth the money. Looks more like a canteen. I do not recommend visiting this restaurant. WASTE OF TIME .

Amazing food, and very kind owners. He came to our table to introduce himself and explain the concept of the restaurant. The food has a more modern take on persian food with touches of lebanese and turkish cuisine mixed in, the kabob still has an authentic taste. The interior had beautiful decorations. Would definitely get the pomegranate ice cream too. 10/10 would go again, they make sure you have a good experience there.

Came here with my family after walking by it a couple months back. We ordered the Mezes dip platter (with Baba Ganoush, Hummus, and a roasted pepper dip), Koobideh Kebab with rice, whole Sea Bass, and Kebab wrapped in bread with cheese. All our meals were delicious, and honestly that may have been the BEST Persian Kebab I ve ever tried. Definitely check this place out, the food is top notch, and our waiter s and the owner who said hello were complete gentleman. Oh how could I forgot the Baklava it was freshly made that day and very tasty.

Most of the food was wonderful but the cheese pide was pretty dry, I think it needed a different kind of cheese that would still stay a bit runny, so you don t feel like you are eating fresh, but plain bread. I wouldn t order it again. Also a bit of flexibility would be appreciated: the lamb kebab costs 45$ and is marked on the menu as served with potatoes and vegetables. We asked if they could replace the potatoes with rice and the answer came as no, sorry. I would eat here again, but it wouldn t be my first choice.

It was okay. Went with high expectations after reading other reviewers and seeing the 4.9 rating. The meal actually started off great with the kibbeh and dips. The 2 apps came out quickly, they were delicious and the presentation was beautiful. But then we waited over an hr for the mains to come out and the restaurant was not busy. We ordered the rack of lamb and chicken kebab. The lamb while the flavor was good, it was over cooked. The chicken was okay. Considering the price of the 2 dishes I thought the portions were going to be much larger. The bill came to about $200+ for 4 people and while the women were fine the men were somewhat hungry after. Mayrik down the street was much better in my opinion, larger portions and the food was cooked well. Dont think Ill return.

Everything was just perfect - from the food, to the decor and the staff! We were a group on 10 celebrating a birthday and the staff was so incredibly patient and kind. They went out of their way to put their own sparklers and candles and played happy birthday on their speakers throughout the restaurant which was so incredibly thoughtful. We tried about half of the menu and everything was incredible! My favourite was the lamb shank and the fattoush salad. This place is a must-visit!

★★★
December 21, 2023

This is a mediocre food with a fancy price. We had a visit, the place was nearly empty. The server was nice however too attentive. The food was ok, we ordered mezze platter and bread for appetizer, the platter had 3 dips, baba ghanush and humus and both were meh, and a spicy walnut one that was delicious. We got special kebab and a Mediterranean kebab as our mains and both were meh, the portion was relatively small and quality nothing worth mentioning. We had two cocktails, very limited options made with cheap liquor. Oh and there are so many off the menu items so not so transparent. I wont try again as there are tons of better options in the neighborhood.

Beautiful restaurant, magnificent food and such welcoming service. The portion sizes are quite huge so we were able to feel three people off one appetizer, one main and one dessert. We were in a rush and the waiter prioritized our order in the kitchen as to accommodate our tight schedule, so I am deeply grateful. Would recommend any time, and wish I lived in the area so I could go back more often. Dont miss it!
