    Thoughtful nite
    Lisa F.

    It was uber eats and it was delicious. I love that they had a gluten free option for the bread. They still gave the complimentary bread and a little note saying it wasn't gluten free and to be careful. Loved that thoughtful touch from staff. Everything was hot and the flavors were amazing. Best hummus I've had in a while with the perfect amount of lemon to brighten up the flavour.

    And that's how you pour water for patrons

    I had the lamb, rice and salad. The lamb I asked to be done medium rare. Juicy and tasty. Their rice has a gentle taste. I like the calm ambience of this place. Service is friendly and timely. I love the way they pour water! Try this place if you haven't.

    We snagged a last minute reso and came for dinner. We weren't too hungry so we started with the mezza platter, which allowed us to select 3 different cold dishes. We got the babaganuj, tabule, and labni. My favourite was the labni, which is a yogurt cheese dip. Tabule was also really light and refreshing. For our main, we shared the kefta, which is a ground skewer of lamb and beef. It's served with rice and grilled vegetables. I really liked the rice -- it's flavoured super well. We saved some of our mezza to eat with the meat and rice and it definitely enhanced the flavour. They have a patio that looks really vibey once the weather gets a bit nicer outside :) Verdict: good option for middle Eastern food in the midtown area!

    My sister and I visited her friends in Toronto, and we decided to walk from their house to somewhere to eat for dinner. As we were near Yonge Street, we decided on Tabule Restaurant for some delicious Mediterranean food. We sat outside (though there were indoor options), and our food, the service, and the ambiance were all great! The four of us ordered multiple appetizers and several entrees as family-style where we all shared everything. We started off with Mujaddara (rice and brown lentil with onions topped off with concasse), Falafel (vegetarian patties consisting of crushed chick peas, split fava, parsley, garlic, onions and spices served with tahini), Hallum Salad (baby arugula, onions & seared hallüm cheese tossed together in a pomegranate dressing), Hummus (chickpea purée, lebanese tahini, fresh lemon juice & a touch of garlic), Warak Enab (vegetarian home-made grape leaves, stuffed with rice, tomatoes, garlic, lemon and spices), and Arnabeet (flash fried cauliflower finished with a touch of tahini). We then ordered Tawuk (two juicy skewers of Ontario farm fresh marinated chicken breast) to go along with the Falafel for the main dishes. My favorite dishes were the Warak Enab, Falafel, Chicken, and Arnabeet though I tried each dish, and everything was tasty. I was also entertained by the water refilling that involved a container of water that refilled the water with small tubes of water that looked almost magical. The restaurant always seemed to be busy along Yonge Street whether it was the restaurant indoor area or the outdoor seating. The staff were friendly and open to sharing recommendations. They have their Habibi Happy Hour on weekdays from 3-5 PM with $7 snacks and sips. Tabule is located in the heart of Midtown on Yonge Street and was founded by Chef Rony Goriachy and Diana Sideris in 2005. Tabule Midtown rapidly earned its place among the finest Middle Eastern restaurants in Toronto offering exotic Middle eastern Cuisine in a warm and inviting atmosphere. My sister's friends were very familiar with this restaurant and have frequented it before. We look forward to coming back and trying it again on a future visit to Toronto!

    Came for dinner with friends. The service felt rushed as they came by many times to ask for our order but they were friendly. We asked for serving utensils several times before they brought it. The food was good and the flavours were good.

    My first visit to Tabule fully exceeded my expectations, so naturally, I went back and it was just as good as the first time!! The service is lovely and the atmosphere is impeccable for a nice dinner with friends and family. The restaurant is more low key and intimate (though not in a small space by any means) -- the ambience lends to a cozy dining experience where you can comfortably catch up with friends. I would HIGHLY recommend the kefta banadura. The kefta is seasoned well and not too dry, while the sauce compliments the meat perfectly! The portion sizes are huge, so you're really getting 2 meals for the price of 1. The kefta also comes with grilled vegetables and rice which is also delicious on its own. For dessert, I would recommend the kunafa ashta. I had never had this type of dessert before and I was hooked after the first bite. It is rather sweet but the dish is served warm so everything just melts in your mouth. I could eat multiple portions of it!

    Always finish with Lebanese coffee. The cardamom and strong coffee are delightful.

    Tabule is a small chain of Lebanese restaurants around Toronto. I've tried them all and can recommend every one of them. The Yonge/Eglinton location is equal to all the others. Great food options, great staff, warm and welcoming decor, all with that Mediterranean/ Lebanese flair. Fairly priced, many options for vegans, vegetarians and those avoiding gluten. I'm a fan of the falafel entree, my partner loves the chicken skewers but humus and any of their many dips will blow you away. We got great service from Joshua.

    Struggled immensely to decide on what to order but feel content and satisfied in my decision. A great spot for a north York dinner (midtown lunch)

    Menu as of June 2022
    Andrei A.

    I can't imagine how someone would have a negative experience at Tabule. The food is always fresh and the staff are all super nice. When it comes to value for the money, I think their food is overpriced by around 10-15%. For example, Tawuk costs $21 and consists of 2 chicken skewers. However, there's no way 11 pieces of chicken are equivalent to 2 skewers. Also, instead of so much rice, they could reduce the amount of rice and add fresh veggies to balance out the meal. I also recommend the restaurant owner to add dark meat chicken thighs to the menu, because folks like me don't eat chicken breast. The mere fact that they serve mennonite chicken is HUGE!!! Very few restaurants prioritize the quality of their ingredients to the point of going through the trouble of procuring chicken from the mennonites - the best source of chicken, lamb, beef, etc. I have to admit that the sampler platter for $21 is really good. That's what I'd go for on a hot summer day. I'm not sure if I'll be back at Tabule anytime soon, for I have other favourite places in my neighbourhood, but it's a suitable destination for quality middle eastern food.

    Chick Tawuk Hummus with Beef
    Alaleh P.

    We went here in the summer when the city had dedicated extra patio space to the restaurants in the sidewalks and Yonge Street. We arrived late for lunch (3 pm) and they were done for lunch time and not ready for night either; and, we were welcomed by their friendly staff. After asking for advice, we ordered Chicken Tawuk and Hummus with Beef. Hummus tasted good, especially with the in-house baked pita. Chicken was flavored with the right amount of spices and was cooked well.

    Had a business meeting here and I personally enjoyed my meal. We all ordered the cauliflower to share as an appetizer and two others ordered the ground beef and lamb meatballs in tomato sauce, while I ordered a House salad with chicken. I really enjoyed the fresh, simple flavors of my meal. But one of my colleagues enjoyed the meatballs, while the other did not. The one who claimed to not enjoy the meal, finished eating the entire meal but claimed to get a tummy ache after dinner that he attributed to the meal. I believe the tummy ache was from not really enjoying the flavors of the meal, as opposed to the meal being contaminated with something. So I personally wouldn't take his experience into account when deciding whether or not to eat here. The service was also very attentative and super friendly. I definitely would be returning when given the opportunity.

    With three locations across the city, Tabule Middle Eastern Cuisine is the place to go for authentic Lebanese dishes with plenty of vegetarian options. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, especially the silky hummus or farm-fresh Tawuk skewers. Family meals ($75) and meals for two ($50) are available.

    Almost went into a food coma just from the smell alone when the food came out. It was utterly delicious! I have no idea what they did to the eggplant to make it so good, but it's clearly got me addicted. The juiciness of the eggplant, combined with the tang of the nutty tahini sauce and the crisp texture of the mujaddara had me savouring every bite. The spices complimented one another perfectly: aromatic, rich but not overwhelmingly so. My friend was also quite pleased with the kefta: if you're a fan of lamb that's not too gamy, this is the to-go order. The portions were excellent as well, and the prices quite reasonable for the location. Oh right, almost forgot to mention the pita bread they served at the start of the meal - definitely some of the best I've had! Was almost tempted to ask if they'd consider selling it in bulk haha. When I first entered the place it seemed quite small. Only after a while did I realize that there was actually a whole bunch of seats on the other side of the wall; enough space avoid crowding. The ambience was cozy and pleasant, dimly lit and well decorated enough to give off a homely and slightly romantic vibe. However, the warmth of the interior was not at all reflected in the staff. We had to try innumerable times to grab someone's attention to take our orders or to get the bill. At one point our request for a water refill was simply forgotten. It wasn't as if the restaurant was packed either...the service was unfortunately quite disappointing. That being said, I can absolutely see myself coming back here again! The food was just that good :)

It was also huge, and I had to take half of it home with me. The focaccia bread is excellent, and serves as a sort of bowl for this deconstructed kebab. My husband had his usual Cobb Salad, which he thinks is particularly well done at Landwer's. Our other dining companion had schnitzel, which came with some angel hair pasta. He enjoyed it very much. Service is, as I said above, "relaxed". If you are planning to see a concert or show afterwards, then plan ample time to allow the relaxed service to unfold (a.k.a this is not fast food!!) We had a 6:00 reservation, and we were able to make our 7:30 concert time with about 10 minutes to spare. The University location is conveniently located near Thompson Hall, the subway, and Union Station (Via Rail and Go).
