We had an incredible time at Sibel Restaurant on Avenue Road for our office Christmas party! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, elegant, and welcoming, making it the perfect setting for a festive celebration. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. Each member of our group found something to love on the menu, and the flavors truly exceeded our expectations. The staff at Sibel were attentive, friendly, and professional, ensuring our entire party felt well taken care of throughout the evening. They went above and beyond to make the event special, accommodating all of our needs with a smile. The ambiance of the restaurant was perfect for a holiday gathering—cozy yet modern, with a great energy that added to the festive spirit. It was clear that a lot of care and attention to detail went into creating such a wonderful dining experience. Everyone in our group had such a great time, and we couldn’t stop raving about the food and service afterward. Whether you’re planning a special event, a gathering with colleagues, or just a night out, Sibel Restaurant is a fantastic choice. It’s a gem on Avenue Road, and we can’t wait to come back again. Highly recommended!
We’ve dined here twice and both times the staff were courteous and not much lingering. The food is delicious, I tried their kebab platter this time which was a sample of all different kebabs and all of them were juicy and delicious. The kunafa was not to my taste but it was fine.
One of the best restaurants in Toronto we visited in the last 10 years!! Excellent food and great service in the airy comfortable environment. It has a large bar and a modern décor. We loved it and will be back for sure!!
The Turkish focused menu offers an array of dips. We started with the fatteh ($10), one that I’ve never had before. The pressed yogurt reminds me of a thinner labneh. Covered with oil, which the menu describes as infused with garlic and shallots, it tasted liked nothing except for the roasted cashews on top. The dip really needs more spices or seasonings to add interest. Luckily, the starter arrives with complimentary feta, butter, and hummus. Ultimately, with some feta on the fatteh it helps augment the flavours with a bit of saltiness. Maybe Sibel just likes to shy away from salt, as their hummus was also served neutral so tastes like nothing more than blended chickpeas with a bit of oil. Even the Turkish babaganoush ($9) was also relatively tasteless. There wasn’t the expected smokiness from using grilled eggplant any any onion, garlic, or parsley was muted. If anything, the sweet and tangy pomegranate glaze stood out the most. The best thing about the dips is having the pita. Freshly prepared in a wood burning oven, it was sizzling hot and delicious. Sprinkled with an everything bagel seasoning, it thankfully adds a bit of zest to the plain dips. Sibel’s fried kubbeh ($14) was surprisingly fluffy in the centre, the mixture of beef, bulgur, onion, walnuts, and spices crumble onto the plate upon breaking through the crispy coating. Dipped with pistachio it’s beautiful to behold and tasty, just a rather small portion (two per order) for the price. The mixed kebab platter ($38) is a great way to try several proteins: Despite the lamb chop being cut thinly and being overdone, it was still tender and well seasoned. In comparison, the cubes of filet were done a perfect medium rare but wasn’t as flavourful. While not necessarily bad, I’d recommend you having these first, so it doesn’t seem as plain. The full adana kebab was juicy and mixed with enough spices so it’s flavour without being overwhelming. Lastly, the chicken wings were done well, cooked through without becoming dry and having a nice char on the skin. Overall, for incorporating so many different types of proteins with bones and different cooking times, the platter came together well. Made to feed a sumo wrestler, it’d be a lot of food for one, so is ideal for sharing. Aside from all the proteins, there’s also a bed of deliciously saucy bulgur, fluffy white rice, bread, shredded cabbage, onions, spicy grilled peppers, and half a tomato. It’s not a lot of vegetables, so if you want something to balance out the proteins, pair this with a salad. On another visit, I stuck with just the adana kebab ($34) and it was equally juicy. It’s just surprising that by itself you don’t get much more of the kebab despite the main being almost equally priced to the mixed kebab platter. In my books, the mixed platter is a much better deal. At least that had more sides than the shrimp kebab ($35). It was almost comical how noticeably smaller it was than the other two mains, served with only bulgur and a roasted tomato. You'll only want to order this if you're in the mood for a very light meal. At least the shrimp were sizable and cooked well. Their pide are a great option for any pizza lovers. A thinnish chewy toasted bread forms the base and the chicken fillet pide ($24) was filled with a healthy portion of mozzarella and chicken. It was enjoyable, but a little plain since there were scant amounts of other ingredients listed on the menu (mushrooms, olives, and tomato). I would have liked more of the vegetables to balance out the dish.
It's a fairly new restaurant in this area, and I think the owner(s) has done a great job creating a unique atmosphere. The food was tasty, and a good service. The only thing I wasn't happy with was the wine, a good and knowing selection of wines, but it wasn't tasting fresh to us, and I am not sure why. Overall a good experience.
What an amazing experience! Everything we ordered was delicious, even the complimentary dish as well. Service is wonderful :) five stars all around! Will definitely come back soon
Very beautiful place with delicious food. The food was fantastic, and the atmosphere was cozy. Their service was outstanding— they made the experience even better with attentiveness and great suggestions. I’ll definitely be back! 🤩
Place is new. Hope they are able to keep it this way. Food is amaziiing! Tasty, reasonably priced and the portions are huge! The service was stellar, they go above and beyond and that made the biggest difference. Place looked fancy, elevated, but still warm. Everyone was helpful and friends. And again, food was real good. Legit.
Wonderful food and amazing bar and bartender!
i went with my family and we had the loveliest time here. we ordered the vip fire tower for 4 and the manti. soooo delicious and the hummus at the top of the tower is amazing. you gotta park on the street tho :/
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Sibel Turkish-Middle Eastern restaurant, and it was a fantastic experience! The food was absolutely delicious every dish was perfectly seasoned, fresh, and full of authentic flavors. From the rich, creamy hummus to the tender, flavorful kebabs, each bite was a delight. Ali and his staff were warm, attentive, and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Their genuine hospitality added to the experience and made us feel truly welcomed. He is truly one of the best restaurant managers I ve ever seen. The modern yet cozy environment was another highlight. The decor strikes a perfect balance between contemporary design and Middle Eastern influences, creating a stylish and inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. Whether you re a fan of Turkish-Middle Eastern cuisine or trying it for the first time, this place won t disappoint!
One of the best restaurants in GTA
I initially had a disappointing experience at Sibel when I placed an order for pickup (2 lahmacuns and 1 Adana). The server who handled my order was rude and dismissive, even when I made a simple request to pack the lahmacuns separately to prevent them from getting soggy. When I arrived at the restaurant, her unprofessional attitude continued, and I felt disrespected as a customer. Thankfully, the chef, Halil, was incredibly kind and apologized for the servers behavior. He took the time to listen to me and made sure to let the manager know what had happened. I just received a call from the manager, Arshia, who personally apologized for the experience. His professionalism and sincerity completely turned around how I felt about the situation. It s clear that both he and Halil genuinely care about their customers and want to ensure the restaurant upholds high standards of service. The food at Sibel has always been good, and gestures of accountability like this from both the chef and the manager show a real commitment to improvement. Thank you, Halil and Arshia, for making things right!
The food and drinks were very nice. We were especially pleased with Ms. Denizs service.
I had an outstanding experience at Sibel Turkish Restaurant! From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the beautiful and cozy location, which is perfect for a relaxing meal or a special evening out. The food was simply exceptional authentic Turkish flavors with a modern touch. Each dish was prepared with care, using high-quality, fresh ingredients that truly set it apart. The bar also deserves a special mention, offering an excellent selection of drinks to perfectly complement the meal. The warm and inviting environment, coupled with the restaurants thoughtful decor, makes it a fantastic spot for both casual dining and special occasions. Whether youre coming with family, friends, or for a romantic dinner, Sibel Turkish Restaurant is ideal. What stood out the most was the impeccable service. The management and staff were welcoming, attentive, and clearly passionate about creating a memorable dining experience. For anyone looking for authentic Turkish cuisine in a cozy and stylish setting, Sibel Turkish Restaurant is a must-visit. Their attention to detail and commitment to quality make it a standout destination. I ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates amazing food and a great atmosphere!
First time here as I heard a lot about it, and we had to give it a try. Food was ok, however they forgot to bring one of our appetizers, their Turkish coffee was definitely not authentic and when we wanted to order desert they told us they only have a few items left. The place is nicely done and obvious they have spent a lot of money on but music is way way too loud for a dining restaurant and their lighting is like disco lights from the 70s which does gets you really annoyed as you re eating. Don t think I would go back unless they fix their lighting and their music which is so important for a restaurant. Vegetarian options: A few.
EDITED on Dec8/24 Came yesterday with my hubby and brought my mother for the first time. When hubby and I came when it first opened the food was seasoned and had salt. Yesterday the food changed. We waited so long for our order, my mom s dish of veal and lamb kabob with rice and bulgar had no flavour or salt. As a result my mother did not ear her food. My salmon was okay very pricy for $44 considering portion was small and sauce was very spicy that my body start the itch the next day. My hubbys food had the tomatoe sauce with veal and same thing no flavour. Spent $161 not satisfied. We asked for the manager and lady said he would not come. She tried her best to help us, not her fault. But at the end she rushed us to leave saying we need the table and then gave us change back and short changed us. She was right over my head watching me count the money and waiting for us to leave. Felt very disturbed by this. Very uncomfortable experience! Was waiting for this place to open, and glad it finally was. We were served by Osharia, he was very nice and generous. We were presented with delicious bread, hummus, feta cheese and butter that was complimentary. We then ordered the lentil soup, kubeh and mixed meat entree. I must say everything we had was super delicious Then we were served baklava on the house. Such a beautiful, clean restaurant with lovely kind and generous staff!. Will definitely be coming back! Please if you have not tried this place, please go and see for yourself. You will not be disappointed!
I have dined here with my family 3 times first time was ok second again not so bad experience 3 time was a total disaster food was horrible undercooked service was the worst I have seen in my life was Saturday evening waitress didn t pay any attention waited over an hour for food very very rude staff and at the end waitress tried to rip me off and short change me very very rude staff horrible experience I recommend never to go here unless you love being punished and ripped off be very very careful to stay far far away
WHERE WE HAVE BREAKFAST EVERY SUNDAY, WE WERE TOLD THAT WE CANNOT GET IT WITHOUT A RESERVATION THIS SUNDAY. WE UNDERSTAND THIS IS A PERFECT NATURAL SITUATION, BUT I WISH A WARNING WAS SHARED ON SOCIAL MEDIA FOR THIS, WE WERE NOT THE ONLY DISAPPOINTED EVERYTHING IS PERFECT BUT THE PLACE IS PERFECT SOCIAL MEDIA AND COMMUNICATION IS ZERO..
nice place good food but service terrible this restaurant need serious work in service department otherwise will be gone Food
Food was spectacular and service was awesome! Huge thank to Nermin for her big smile on her face and her service was flawless! Definitely go back and highly recommended

The services were very good and the food was also very good. We were very pleased with the service of Ms. Deniz.
First of all, thank you for your services. Thank you especially for Ms. Denizs interest
Had the mixed kebab and Sibel salad. Both were great and came with complementary bread. Denise was a great server!
Great food! Our server Narmin was amazing.

Narmin our server was great
Great place , great food and great services especially with Arshia S ! :) he was very professional and charming who was taking care of us ! Dietary restrictions: . Kid-friendliness: .
Samria served us. Great service. Excellent food. A beautiful resturant with attention to every detail. Vegetarian options: The vegetarian dish was exceptional.
We had a wonderful time and loved the food. The staff are very friendly and considerate. We really enjoyed the mezze platter, the bread, the meats..all so good!
Buyer beware! Nice atmosphere but Mediocre service drinks and food took too long waitresses were nice but didn t seem too used to interacting with non Turkish clientele. Pricey for the amount of food served the platter for 6 was more like an appetizer platter no salad, rice and definitely not enough meat for 6 people. Drinks prices were higher than listed in the menu. We spent over $700 and left unsatisfied.
Wasn t sure what to expect. But we were greeted with amazing service by the owner and our server and the bartender and it was smooth sailing from there. Incredibly attentive service. Genuine kindness from entire team. And the food . Wowza. Outstanding. Highly recommend. So thrilled to have this spot so close to home. Instant favourite.
Great restaurant. The decor has a classic yet modern feel. The food was delicious and high quality. Loved the green beans and yogurt dip. The chicken kebab was flavourful and tender. Portions were a good size and price was good value. Our server was Narmin who was helpful and attentive. Highly recommend.
Seven provided amazing service
Wonderful atmosphere with a large screen of Istanbul, and live entertainment. Delicious and authentic. Mostly kebab style but a has some delicious veg only options that are outstanding.
Narmin was amazing. She was really friendly
Nermin is the best
Great food, excellent service. I will be back for sure
Very nice atmosphere. Love the food and service. Will definitely go back again Food
The atmosphere is amazing and the dessert is fantastic. The food can be better :)
We had ordered three items (two Adana Iskender Kebabs, one Sucuk Pide, and 2 beers), but only two were brought. However, since the portions were large, we didn t mention it.
delicious Breakfast
Amazing food and fantastic service!
We had an absolutely fantastic experience at Sibel! Every detail, from the food to the service and atmosphere, was perfect. The flavours were authentic and incredibly delicious, showing true dedication to Turkish cuisine. The staff was so attentive. Prices were fair, especially considering the quality and level of service we received. Sibel has easily become a favourite, and we re looking forward to making it a regular spot in our dining routine! Thanks to Tannaz for introducing us to Sibel.
First and most importantly our server Samira was so lovely!!! And the food was absolutely outstanding. The mezze platter was outstanding. Don t miss the beet mutabbal. And the wood burning oven made bread/pita is to die for. Unbelievable . Sooooo good. Decor is gorgeous. Service awesome. We will 100% be back.
The best Turkish restaurant that I have ever been in Toronto. Great ambiance, delicious food and amazing friendly service. Don t miss it.
We visited Sibels Restaurant on November 2nd and were truly impressed with the authenticity of the Turkish food it tasted just like home. Samira provided exceptional service; she was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable about the menu. The food was excellent, and all four of us enjoyed our meals and service. However, the music was less than ideal, feeling more disruptive than entertaining. I believe a change in musician could make the atmosphere even more enjoyable. Overall, a great experience, and we ll look forward to coming back!
After waiting for 40 minutes to be served, we left the restaurant.
Loved everything about this new Turkish restaurant, loved the ambiance and service was great, Nermin who took care of us all night was super attentive. Overall it was a lovely experience definitely will come again!
Great food, beautiful design, and fantastic service.
we had a great experience there. Varied and delicious food with high quality, a very pleasant environment, and excellent hospitality and service.
The restaurant is amazing, however the servers are overly attentive. By that I mean in a two hr period we were approached by her or others about 6-7 times . Very polite however , that was abit much We had the feeling for sure that the table was needed and we had been there long enough Otherwise the food and the soloist performer was excellent.
It was my first and probably only time being in this restaurant . The staff are very cold no welcome , no appreciation not even a single smile. Enoying and unprofessional behavior by untrained staff. The food was good The restaurant and the design decoration is beautiful, but because of those on train staff, the whole atmosphere of the restroom is so bad
Great atmosphere, tentative and amazing staff!
Narmin was an awesome waitress! Food was great and music was on point!
Awesome atmosphere! Awesome staff and the food was phenomenal!!! Nermin was such a pleasure to have for our table! She was so wonderful and so accommodating!! Definitely coming back!!!
Narmin was so fantastic! Thank you so much for hosting us and being such a great waitress. You made our night that much more memorable! Vegetarian options: Lots of options Dietary restrictions: None Kid-friendliness: Not really kid friendly Wheelchair accessibility: Not very accessible
Delicious dinner with an interesting presentation a tower of mixed dishes with authentic Iranian flavors, served by Iranian staff. Sometimes there s live music, though it can occasionally be a bit loud. Overall, it was a good experience.
Nice atmosphere, waiters are ñice and friendly. Samira our waitress did a great job.
It s a beautiful place little tight but ambiance and food is amazing. Must be on your bucket appetizer to main menu every thing was delicious. There is parking issue.
fantastic all around. 4th time here!
This is just simply a wonderful dining experience, the food was delicious, and timed to near perfection, from the appetizers to the mains to dessert and coffee. The service was attentive and very courteous. The atmosphere was quite pleasing and allowed for good conversation as wave after wave of deliciousness arrived at the table. It is well worth the price.
Food was overpriced and not that good compared to others. Service was very poor. Did not live up to a somewhat high end Turkish place. Would not recommend or go back.
Wow, we truly felt as though we had been transported to Istanbul. Don t be fooled by the website, the food is delicious and the interior is luxurious - would be the perfect space to host your next event. Everything was fresh and perfect, starting with the bread and dips. All meats were of the highest quality and my vegetarian friend had more options than he ever gets at restaurants in Toronto. 10/10 recommend!!!
Fresh, tasty and large portions! Thank you, Sibel! Wheelchair accessibility: Tamp that leads onto the patio and handicapped equipped washroom on the main level. Food : 5/5 |
Excellent restaurant! Everything was wonderful. The food was incredible! The service and staff were friendly, and professional. We ordered the VIP tower, it says that it serves 4, and it easily serves 6. The meats were cooked perfectly the theatrics were also an exciting part of the dinner experience. The ambiance was wonderfull with a talented young lady playing piano and singing. I cannot wait to go back
Delicious food and good service.
The food quality was decent, i wouldn t say the best turkish food i ve had , but definitely worth trying. Staff were attentive , friendly and polite , knowledgeable about the menu and they made good recommendations for us. The atmosphere itself was lovely, it wasn t so crowded which i liked , and the interior design was elegant and beautiful. In general i recommend this place.
They had a humongous breakfast that truly captures the Turkish breakfast experience !!!
Very tasty breakfast with many dishes from eggs, fruit salad, all kind of cheese. Would recommend
Turkish breakfast was so delicious, this is our second time and we will come again
The quality of the food was top-notch and served in the best condition. The atmosphere was amazing, and the servers were very friendly and attentive. Its truly the perfect place for hosting gatherings, inviting guests, or simply enjoying a family get-together. Highly recommend! Thank you, Cibel!
Too cold Tooo loud music No facilities for kids Dark place Spend a lot of time to find paid parking
We had a Turkish breakfast. Food quality was OK, far from great. Portions were also on a smaller side. The restaurant design and service were very good. Food
Had an amazing evening at Sibel with a large group on a Saturday night. Food was delicious and our entire group enjoyed a wonderful dinner. Would definitely return. Had to pay a deposit to hold the large booking but was returned to me promptly on the evening of our reservation.
Amazing restaurant amazing atmosphere. You should come here.
very bad. stomach growled all night. do not recommend.
Went for a birthday dinner midweek and our waitress, Narmin, was incredibly helpful and was so sweet! Food was delicious, everyone enjoyed their meal. Atmosphere was very nice - would definitely recommend!
Only reason the service was less than 5 ...they had a full house with my friends birthday group of 18 as well as all other tables were booked solid...including mine ..a table for three. The staff and manager were very pleasant and apologized for any wait .
The best breakfast ever
Generally mediocre and far too expensive for the quality. Service was also incredibly slow, there was probably a 20-30 min gap between us finishing our appetizers and getting our mains. The cold mezzes were great, especially the beet mutabal. Everything else was just ok. The mixed kebab is platter tasted alright but lacked any real flavour, there was barely any of that charred flavour you d expect. The pide was also pretty bland and the dough felt undercooked. I d expect to pay maximum 25-30 dollars per person for this quality and service, not 40-50.
Everything is fine, but if you come at a busy time, be aware that the kitchen service is late.
I have been at this cuisine twice for dinner and breakfast meals. The food quality was exceptional and staff were super friendly and attentive.
Very authentic Turkish food, we tried mix platter, and it was amazingly delicious. They invested a lot in the vibe and atmosphere of the restaurant, it looks very fancy. The only thing is that platters are not really platters in terms of size and portions, keep that in mind when you order.
No words, also confused why you say bread is complementary but charge $5 for it ?? Never again.
I recently dined at Sibel restaurant and had the pleasure of being served by Narmin. From the moment we were seated, she was professional, attentive, and incredibly kind. Narmin made sure we were comfortable, offered helpful suggestions from the menu, and was always quick to address our needs, all with a warm smile. Her knowledge of the dishes added a personal touch to the experience, and her service made our evening truly enjoyable. Thank you, Narmin, for your excellent service. We will definitely be back!
Excellent service with Narmine wifh fantastic food and ambience. Highly recommend.
Narmin provided excellent service during our visit, and we appreciate how she helped organize my sons birthday celebration. Everything was beautifully arranged, and the experience was memorable. Thank you for making the day special!
One of the best Turkish restaurant in Toronto!!!
We anbsolutely enjoyed our dining experience at this restaurant. The beautiful interior created a pleasant and ambient atmosphere, making it a lovely place to relax. The service was excellent and prompt, and the food was truly exceptional. We ordered the tower for four, and it did not disappoint. Overall, we give it a perfect 5/5!
Low quality food, poor customer service
Personally I found Sibel to Modern, bright, and the video of Turkey in the background was a nice touch. However, the volume of the music was somewhat loud for my preference. As for the menu I would have liked to have seen more fish alternative options. Overall, I found the food To be very good. The lamb and steak were very tender as well the garlic and various other spices did not overshadow the taste of the meat. I would go again.
Loved everything about this restaurant! Highly recommend. Food is fresh and quantity is good. My 5 year old enjoyed the pita, pizza and salmon! Kid-friendliness: Staff are super friendly!
Loved everything about this place the decor, food and specially the service.Sevin was wonderful and manager warmth really stood out. Can t wait to come back.
A wonderful dining experience. The Turkish food was full of flavor and expertly prepared. Our waiter Sevin was very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. Despite the shop being closed, we were served in a calm manner. It was one of the few restaurants with smiling staff. The kindness of the waiters made the evening even more enjoyable. I will definitely recommend this place to my friends.
I just passed by on my way to the Bank & it Looks Inviting & Regal - All Black & Gold! The Hostess is a young Blonde Beauty from Severn Trent Canal & I asked about the meal of the day & She gladly showed me the Menu - All hands on Deck very Classical Turkish Dinning! I wish it had a patio, may be sky roof! I might drop in for an odevere & a coffee with a smack of %, & if my purse strings allow, a pattissierie! Therese Abranches!
Enjoyable Parking: After 6 street parking opens up Food : 4/5 |
Wonderful service and food..
Great food and service. Narmine was very attentive.
Came here for a celebration and was not let down. The service is extremely fast. The food is absolutely delicious and I will definitely be back again!!!
Never again! The owner must reconsider their servers. I have never encountered such a disrespectful, annoying and unprofessional behavior in the restaurants I have been. Moreover, it s extremely expensive. If I pay that much money, the servers should be respectful!!! However, they prefer to behave according to appearance of customers. If you don t want to waste your money and get angry, stay away from this restaurant
The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming. The atmosphere is outstanding. We sat at the bar and totally enjoyed the incredible singer. The taste treats were delicious. Turkish coffee is mellow and delicious. Definitely end with baklava.
This restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience with delicious food, impeccable service, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Every dish is prepared with great attention to detail, making each bite a delight. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a memorable meal.

We just finished one of the best brunches we ve had in a long time in Toronto. This is our first Turkish restaurant experience, and it was exceptional. My wife and I had the Turkish Rustic breakfast. Not only was it delicious, but the vast array of dishes and varied tastes was almost overwhelming(in a good way ). I consumed enough food to carry me through till tomorrow! The unlimited Turkish coffee was a treat. The decor and attention to detail was meticulous, and the service was exceptional !!! Excellent experience and worth every penny!!!!!!!!!!!!
AMAZING Turkish breakfast!! Great value.
It was my family and Is first time at this restaurant and WOW! We came here for brunch and everything about it was amazing. The service, the atmosphere and the food was fantastic...and more people need to know how incredible this restaurant is! 10/10
Low quality food, poor customer service. Two of us got food poisoning.
Good service by the Waitress Seven
From its stunning decor to its mouthwatering Turkish cuisine, this restaurant really has it all. The staff were very friendly and attentive, the waiters and the warm welcome from the owner made us feel right at home. If you are looking for a great meal in a stylish setting, this is the place for you!
A very nice and stylish restaurant with a warm and comfortable atmosphere. The Turkish food here is absolutely amazing rich and full of authentic flavors. Our waiter Sevin was very kind and attentive. A great place for a great dining experience
Even though this place has just opened, I leave satisfied when I visit. I went with my two children and it was good in terms of food, conversation and taste. The environment is nice, the surroundings are clean and the place is carefully furnished. Let me say that as much as a meal makes me happy, the employees are also very good and competent, they deserve 10 out of 10, they are friendly, thank you very much. Also, if you want to enjoy the delicious appetizers and meats of this place like us, you should definitely go. I would also like to thank all the staff, Mrs. Sevin and Mr. Bardia.
It has a great atmosphere. The staff is very attentive and friendly. Breakfast variety is plentiful. It is impossible to get up without being full. By the way, after the picture was taken, sausage, eggs and menende came to the table and I think it is the best breakfast place in Toronto. Thank you Sibel Restaurant
Went here for dinner with my family for a birthday celebration and thought the service, location and ambiance were top notch. The food was delicious, especially the lamb chops and veal fillet. The presentation was great. The price was probably 10% more than I thought it would be but it was worth it. Overall, we had a great time there.
Excellent food.
Great service, reasonable pricing, amazing food. Sibel is great, I highly recommend.
Great food and service. We ordered multiple dishes but my choice would be the platter with four different items such as chops, wings and kebabs.
Everything was delicious. Chicken, Adana and Pide. Beautiful restaurant on avenue road with excellent service ! Food
Delicious food! and our server, Seven, she was absolutely amazing and friendly
It was amazing food with incredible service, I cant explain how much I enjoyed my meal with the super welcoming attitude of the owner. I really recommend this place as a luxurious restaurant with a fabulous atmosphere
I had memeorable party with my friends and we got VIP towers,it was the best turkish meal ,Ive ever had in Toronto . It was exellent experience with that outstanding service becauce they recommend the greatest option and they meet the needs of everything which we want . I have to say, that fresh bread and incredible cold appetizer was number one in Toronto
The food, the atmosphere, and the service were over the top. This is a place you have to visit.
Great service, considerate and amazing food!
Great food and fantastic space!!!
The best food we ve had outside of turkey. Lovely staff we will be back for sure. Thank you so much for an incredible meal.
First of all, very elegant decoration, well done Sibel. Good food and friendly service. Food
Amazing place. Great foot and great smiling staff
Food was absolutely spectacular, the best Turkish restaurant in the city. Staff and service were as good as it gets. Quick, attentive, and very polite. I think we had 4 different servers helping us at the same time. I never got my glass below 3/4 full! The interior decor is beautiful; very tasteful and the atmosphere is unique. Instantly one of our favorite places in the city. Well definitely be coming back!
Always a pleasure to be welcomed with such hospitality and very delicious selection of Turkish cuisine! Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie mezes and main courses Kid-friendliness: Kids love kebaps!
We went for a family member s birthday. It was wonderful. We live in the area, so we love the new addition to Lawrence Park. Food was amazing. We had tons of meze, the Adana kebap and the turkish pizza (lahmacun) all delicious. Just as delicious as back home in Istanbul. Also, the restaurant is beautifully decorated! Would highly recommend if you re looking for a taste of Istanbul!
Had a dinner at this restaurant and loved it. We got an Ali Nazik and a mix platter and both of them were super. Amazing staff. Highly recommended.
Tasty food, friendly service and great vibe. Will be back! Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating to allergies Parking: Lots of street parking on side streets
We had an amazing time! The food was delicious, the service was quick, and the staff greeted us with warm smiles. Huge thanks to Miss Irem, Deniz, and Samira. We cant wait to visit again!
A high end Turkish restaurant, in a good location with roadside parking in front. The decor and ambience of the place is very good. The variety of dishes and tastes are excellent. All the dishes are well presented and served in good crockery. we ordered fish, meat and chops and various starters and trileche as dessert. Every dish was perfect as expected. I can totally recommend this place for the best dining experience. We would also like to thank Sevin and Narmin who served us. everything was very nice.
Best Turkish restaurant in Toronto 110%!! Cozy and authentic with friendly staff! Fancy and high end, if you wish.
Great experience, had a wonderful Turkish breakfast, staff were excellent, helpful and polite. We will come back.
Best Turkish breakfast in Toronto!
One of the best Turkish restaurants in Toronto. Food and service were amazing. Definitely recommend it Food
We had Narmin today and she was absolutely fantastic. We had a service dog with us and she was incredibly gracious and provided us with a lovely table in the corner that accommodated our entire party as well as the dog. The food was lovely and we truly enjoyed the atmosphere. This is a fantastic restaurant if you enjoy lovely thoughtful service with and delicious Greek food.
Few restaurants on this neighborhood offer the quality of food and service Sibel boasts. Thank you again for a fantastic meal. Well be back.

The place is wonderful. Thank you very much to Ms. Deniz for her interest.
It was a great experience, it was a very enjoyable breakfast, the presentation and taste were very high, this should be your number 1 choice for breakfast, I highly recommend it to everyone.
Had an amazing experience at Sibel! Very delicious breakfast with lots of options to choose from. The service we received from Deniz was fantastic! She was very friendly and attentive. Definitely coming back :)
The team has been phenomonal . The best Turkish restaurant in town. As close as it gets in Toronto to fancy upscale Turkish restaurants in Istanbul .
This restaurant will not disappoint! The ambiance is phenomenal the food is delicious and the service is impeccable!
Food was delicious. We had the mix platters and Trio mezzo plater. Amazing flavors. Narmin was great. Service is on point. I was happy I celebrated my birthday here.
Great service from a very proffessional and polite waitress Narmin. Amazing food. Authentically acurate. Great for bday celebrations!!!
Everything is perfect
The perfect turkish restaurant
We came to this place for lunch on the patio because it had great reviews. And boy are they justified. Well presented and delicious food, great size portions and a beautiful vibe inside and out. Family owned and they are clearly proud of it, as they should be. Highlights are: the Pide dishes. They are huge and taste as good as they look. We also had the chicken kebab, which was juicy and tender and served on a bed of equally tasty bulgar. The vine leaf rolls were an unexpected delight as well. Looking forward to coming back with the whole fam
Absolutely Outstanding!** I recently had the pleasure of having breakfast at Sibel and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The service was impeccable friendly, attentive, and professional without being overbearing. The staff made sure we felt welcomed and well taken care of throughout the entire meal. Now, onto the food: every dish we ordered was a masterpiece and beautifully presented. It s clear that the kitchen takes great pride in their craft, as the ingredients were fresh, the flavors well-balanced, and the portion sizes generous. The atmosphere of the restaurant also deserves special mention cozy, inviting, and perfect for both a casual meal or a special occasion. The ambiance really enhanced the overall experience. I cannot recommend Sibel enough. Whether you re a foodie or just looking for a place to enjoy a great meal with fantastic service, this is the place to go! I ll definitely be coming back soon.
Great ambience, friendly and patient staff with great Turkish food. I really suggest trying this place. Have some live music during dinner time as well. Also the patio is great for traditional Turkish breakfast.
Highly recommend. Great food, service and atmosphere. High quality food, especially the meat - the VIP Fire Tower was amazing. Must try!
Fantastic food and great recommendations from our server Seven. Service was a bit slow when we first arrived but we were on of the first in before the dinner rush.
I had an amazing experience dining at Sibel. The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and made me feel at home with their extraordinary hospitality. The ambiance was warm and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a relaxing meal. Whether youre looking for a cozy night out or celebrating a special occasion, this place is a must-visit. I cant wait to come back! Highly recommend!
One of the best Turkish restaurants with great food
Excellent Turkish dishes, live piano music, a very attentive service! A dinner for four plus a child is worth some 270 dollars. You can also drink your own wine for 40 dollars fee. As the adjacent parking space is small, you can use a municipal parking nearby for 5 dollars from 6 p.m.
The food was decent, but the service needs improvement. Our hostess was very nice and our water was filled regularly, but those were the only positives. Please dont assume that customers who dont look like theyre from your community are unfamiliar with Middle Eastern food. We dont need to be educated, and it came across as quite dismissive. The restaurant also seemed to be understaffed so it was hard to get help when needed. Overall, we had an okay time, but we were very disappointed by the service.
Kid-friendliness: Very friendly place. Very delicious. I recommend Food
This place is a gem! The food is seriously good, with a menu that has something for everyone. The vibe is cozy and laid-back, making it great for a casual dinner or a special night out. Plus, Arash, the owner, is super friendly and clearly cares about making sure everyone has a great time. Definitely worth checking out, P.s if you a whiskey person make sure to try their old fashioned!
Food was very good and restaurant has nice decor. Music was too loud which affected the atmosphere. There were a lot of staff though they seemed to stand around a lot. They were very good with refilling water however the table was left quite messy for a while with dirty dishes sitting there.
Sibel Turkish Restaurant offers an authentic taste of Turkey, capturing the essence of traditional Turkish cuisine in a warm and inviting atmosphere. and food was very delicious Food
I visited Sibel Restaurant in Toronto on Friday, August 9th, after discovering it on Instagram. From the moment i walked in, I was impressed by the warm atmosphere and the friendly staff. The service, particularly from Deniz and Narmin, was exceptional and truly enhanced my dining experience. The food and drinks exceeded my expectations, showcasing a delightful blend of Turkish and Mediterranean flavors. I highly recommend Sibel Restaurant for anyone looking for a memorable meal in a welcoming environment.
Such an elegant ambiance with excellent service and wonderful cuisine. We will be back.
Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Sibel. The bar and seating area are modern and inviting. Our waiter Arshia was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The food was excellent and was served by the owner/chef who gave full guarantee on quality. Everything was perfect and we will definitely return.
A great night out , superb ambience , great mediterranean food tasty, real turquish food ,the food was abundant but very taste and great presntation with a lot of flavours the open kitchen concept is a fantastic touch of real grill restaurant, and the live music and the service was divine by our host Sebine very amicable and professional, a real gem in Avenue road , bravo
This was a feast of a breakfast. Great service with an excellent atmosphere. It was a perfect experience. I will return to explore the rest of the menu with live music.
Amazing restaurant! The Turkish food was so delicious. Would definitely come back. Lamb chops were a standout dish
This is absolutely one of the restaurants to visit if you like Turkish food. The service was excellent, and Feyza Hanim was incredibly helpful. Chef Arash hosted us in a traditional Turkish manner that we had missed dearly.
What a great restaurant. Truly enjoyed everything we tried. Right down to the dessert and Turkish coffee. I was treated so have no idea of the cost.
What a fantastic experience. First of all, the place is magnificent. First class. Attention to every detail. Great service. Water glasses never dry. Menu is incredible. Too many choices. We shared 3 appetizers. And the hot fresh baked bread loaves kept coming. Mains / Kebobs and house specials unique and flavourful. No wonder all our friends and neighbours are raving. And coming back again and again. Avenue Road just got that much better as a result of SIBEL opening here.
It is a nice restaurant to enjoy with friends or family. I like the atmosphere in the patio, I think bar was so cool. Nermin help us a lot. She was so nice and experienced person. Thanks Nermin
What an incredible place. Seven made our night incredible. What a feast and and a beautiful experience. Surprisingly, the tea was also a perfect finish for our meal. Would come again any time.
