    Fantastic Dinner at Lyla – 5 Stars Had a great experience at Lyla in Toronto. The atmosphere was lively but not too loud, making it a nice spot for both a night out with friends and a special dinner. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and the staff made sure everything arrived at the right pace. The highlight of the night was definitely the 36 oz ribeye for $165. It came out perfectly cooked, juicy, and packed with flavor. For the size and quality, it’s a great deal. The cocktails were another standout. Each one was well-balanced, creative, and made with top-quality ingredients. You can tell the bartenders really know what they’re doing. By the end of the meal, we were completely satisfied but still made room for dessert, which was just as good as the rest of the meal. Overall, Lyla is a place I’d highly recommend for anyone looking for great food, expertly crafted drinks, and a well-rounded dining experience in the city. I’ll definitely be coming back.

    What a fantastic first experience! The atmosphere was very chic while also feeling serene. The service was great! Our server was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. Finally, the food was delicious! The veal carpaccio is a must and the pasta (snow crab) and seafood platter were succulent.

    Went for my birthday and the space has definitely got a renovation since my last visit in 2021. The food was equally as delicious, service had changed a bit (I do miss the old cutlery) but I understand with the demand and expansion since the WELL deserved Micheline recognition. The food was FABULOUS the octopus was a stand out texture perfectly cook the sala Verda had heat, zest, and herbaceous however, the star were the beans! DESSERT was my favourite course strawberries are my favourite fruits so confidently the gelato was right up my alley. I knew it was incredibly well done when my brother who notoriously dislikes strawberry “ice cream” of any sorts kept matching my spoon for spoon (will be back for the Torta). My only wish was to maybe talk about more with the Som and the employees. I know it’s hard to sometimes be able too in service and some guest just rather not be spoken to during their stay. I kept looking for an opening with everyone who touched our table didn’t work out. CJ was a wonderful server, paced our dishes and drinks, took care of my family wonderfully. Also loved that the table was communicated that it was “ours” until a specific time. It was a wonderfully birthday, thank you.
