Besides the draft Beer and amazing kebabs, there is the biggest shawarma for 14 bucks in Canada!!!!! Keep Up

Karen Lam

I've been going to Belle for years! Since highschool. I only get one thing from here - the shawarma pita.. and I will never get anything else. The best shawarma I've ever had and will ever have. There are new owners now. Unfortunately, the don't cut the chicken from the machine anymore and sometimes it's not as hot as I would like it to be...but still very tasty! Also, the price has gone up :( Still a great recommendation!

I don't understand the glowing reviews for this place. It was recommended by a friend and we were very enthusiastic about trying it out. We were monumentally disappointed. The lady at the counter didn't break a smile when we entered (or say thank you as we left, after spending almost $60 for lunch for two!). Not exactly welcoming... I ordered the dinner portion dark meat chicken. Either the portions here are really tiny or they cheated, and served a lunch size portion, while charging the higher price. There were 7 tiny cubes of chicken breast (not dark meat as ordered), that were so over marinated and sour, you couldn't taste the meat just vinegar. The home fries (which are chips) tasted like they'd been sitting in a dirty fridge and had just been reheated. My daughter ordered the lamb chops and though the chops were a decent size, they were over cooked and lacking in flavor. Her comment about them was, it's was lamb (her favorite) so it was ok, but she would never come back. The rice was just bland boiled basmati. A total waste of time and money. Overpriced and underwhelming.

commencedani (commencedani)

Food quality meiocare! Prices high! First time trying this restaurant. The food quality is not the best. The staff are friendly but thats about it. The lule - or koobideh - is 12.99 and only one skewer! I dont know another place that even serves one skewer as koobideh meal nevermind charging that much. Overall i wont go back here, as there are plenty persian restaurants around yonge and finch area. As for the inside of the restaurant, i ordered take out however the setting was organized and clean.

Natalia Nickola

Absolutely the most flavourful food we have enjoyed so far! Generous portions, freshly prepared and served with love. We highly recommend this beautifully run family restaurant. You will not be disappointed. We had the opportunity to try several options available from the menu. We guarantee you that you will enjoy your meal as much as we did. We will definitely be coming back for more! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

The food!! The meat dishes are amazing.

Ali Honarmand

I have had a very good experience there :)

Max Maximov

Very good food (amazing lafas), friendly people. We go there for breakfast, lafas and lula. It's just that the bathroom is hard to reach for kids and there is no changing table for babies.

topfried Poker Boy

Nothing tasted fresh, and everything tasted old frozen precooked and reheated. I'm not sure why it got such a high rating; it was just a 4.5 at the time. In fact, I selected to try this restaurant because of the positive recommendations, and I'm disappointed because I trusted the rating. Lule kebab and chicken breast kebab were included in our order. The chicken had a tofu-like texture and was exceedingly chewy. Lule was even worse; I couldn't tell if the ground beef was genuine or not. We stopped eating after a few bites and I inquired about the bill. The lady at the front was surprised and asked if we had finished our food, to which I said that we had stopped eating because it was not fresh. We paid the entire bill, and she walked to the rear of the store, leaving us alone. She even observed us hardly touching our dishes and made no attempt to find a solution or reimburse us.

Dmitry Gorodnitsky

Wonderful place: cozy atmosphere, amazing food, large portions, good prices, good atmosphere and staff.

J Raissi

I go here frequently never failed me. Friendly owner and food is always amazing

Michael Feigin

Professional stuff.polite services. Tasty food. Thanks

Avallac

Give 3 stars only because of the food, which is 4. But service, cleanliness of the washrooms is 2. You can be small, inexpensive and simple, but clean and nice. People should consider you to come back next time, not searching for alternative options. Invest something, it will come back.

Rohan George

This is a amazing restaurant would recommend their chicken and their beef the lamb is awesome and the veal is amaaaazing

Frank Castle

(Translated) I often visit this restaurant. Very cozy place, warm atmosphere. Delicious mutton kebabs are prepared. Especially cool kebabs with home fries and inexpensive. Visited many Toronto restaurants but has the best value for money. I advise everyone! (Original) Часто посещаю этот ресторан. Очень уютное место, тёплая обстановка. Готовят вкусные шашлыки из баранины. Особенно классные люля-кебаб с хоум-картошкой и недорого. Побывала во многих ресторанах Торонто, но здесь лучшее соотношение цена/качество. Советую всем!

Max

Terrific lunch special. Beef tongue and bread and salad and pickles. 8.99. Awesome.

Shireen Shish

terrible PRICING and small portons of food. and slow service.!

Rafael Mazzeo Jr.

Nice place. The management is great and so is the staff. I love there food and esp the meat sauce.

navid

I've been to a lot of restaurants of various tiers across Toronto and Kitchener/Waterloo and I can say that this is one of the best ones for its location, price and target audience. I've been coming here for over 5 years since I graduated high school and even while I was still in school I used to buy lunch here as well. There aren't any very expensive and top tier dishes (lobster, etc) but the simple meals they have such as lamb chops, shish kebobs, couple types of fish and various salads are very high quality and can't be done any better (IMO). The portions are quite large and the selection of sides is reasonable (fries, home made potatoes, extra salad, rice, etc). For example for a 14$ chicken dark meat shish kebob you get a lot of kebob (i think 10 pieces or maybe 8, not sure, but I think its more than in a lot of other places). Kebob itself is marinated to perfection, is very juicy and tastes exceptionally well through the whole depth of the meat, not just on the outside (really good marinading). As a side can get a big amount of fries - and the fries are the best I've seen. I'm not sure how they make them but they look like they've been breaded and taste so good I come because of fries alone sometimes. A lot of other restaurants just have regular naked potato and compared to these ones it tastes rather dull and flavorless. The owner and/or cook (not sure if he's both) imports his vegetables from Israel since here they are all grown on growth hormones and aren't nearly as rich in taste as the ones from Israel. If you're looking for a decent inexpensive place without any very fancy food whilst having excellent quality I definitely recommend coming here.

I live in the United States, but have friends that live just down the road from this restaurant. They are going through a difficult time and I wanted to send them something to cheer them up. I wanted to order a gift card from Belle Bar & Restaurant and have it sent to my friend's house. When explaining this to the woman on the phone at the restaurant, she immediately got upset and started saying, "This is a scam. You Americans are awful people. We are not interested in what you are doing." I attempted to calm her down and slowly reexplain what my intentions were, but the woman hung up on me! I called back and spoke to a different woman who told me that "she doesn't know what a gift certificate is" and that Belle "doesn't do gift cards". All I was trying to do was give this local restaurant some business and cheer up a friend, but the employees here decided to insult my nationality and treat me poorly. Instead, I ended up purchasing a gift card from Red Lobster for our friends. The staff at Belle treat potential customers in a hasty, unprofessional manner.

Dan J

Nice place and good food but our order was messed up and we didn't leave happy. The fact that the order was messed up was ok but she even decided to charge us 4$ for the missing order. We left very unhappy and it's the last time we come back. I feel sorry for the waitress that's why I gave 2 stars

Sylvian L

very tasty :)

amir mousavi

First and foremost the food is excellent. The breakfast special is a great bargain. There's free parking in the lot steps away from the entrance and when that fills up there's plenty of street parking. Or you can get there by bus. There's a Finch or Bathurst bus arriving every few minutes.

This seemingly unprepossessing place is a true North York hidden gem. Their portions are the largest you will ever find in North America, short of Texas, and the quality and freshness of their ingredients is always above expectations.

Liza Troy

Got delivery during the pandemic, it was easy and quick. Delicious and good portions for a decent price. Will eat again.

Joe Valotta

(Translated) They cook very tasty chicken kebabs especially, they gave large portions one for two and one for three (Original) Очень вкусно готовят особенно куриные шашлыки отдали порции большие одна на двоих а той на троих

This is the best spot for Persian/Russian food and drink, a family-owned business with excellent and hospitable owners. The food and service is top-notch, highly recommend to try this place! 5/5

Michael Olatoye

Mediocre service but the food more than makes up for it. Love the lamb shish kebab, Lula kabab, and schwarma. The home potatoes are excellent when they're good bit are sometimes over cooked and too crispy. Will still keep coming back for years to come whenever I'm in the mood for Mediterranean

Great family owned restaurant. Great food quality with a very reasonable price. Highly recommended. They do Free Delivery for orders over $25 I believe. Compare to places like Me-Va-Me, way better and superior food.

(Translated) Tasty. I have been going to this restaurant for a long time. The owners change, turns, like the same. The assortment has not changed, except for the kebab. It looks more like cutlets ...) (Original) Вкусно. Давно хожу в этот ресторанчик. Хозяева меняются, повора, вроде теже. Ассортимент не поменялся, кроме шашлыка. Стал похож больше на котлеты...)

Perfect meal and laffa. Best Taste of Israelis Russian foods in this town

Amira Samadova

Awful new owners!!! I got food poisoning from uncooked chicken!! I ate one piece without noticed. Once I showed the waitress, the owner and the waitress started arguing with me and insisted that I paid for uncooked, unfinished chicken kabob. DO NOT EAT HERE! You'll regret it!!

Alexey Petrov

I've been coming to Belle for a couple years now and really think it's one of the best restaurants in North York. I've tried various dishes there and loved them all, but ultimately keep coming back for their tremendously tasty Lula kebob dinner. I'm a big fan of koobideh style kebobs and regularly frequent many of the places along Yonge between south of Finch all the way up to south of the 407, as well as others, and let me tell you the Lula kebob from Belle has risen through the ranks to the number one spot for me. It's a very generous sized portion, but what's more impressive is the texture and flavour of the meat. It's beautifully seared on both sides, making for an incredibly crusty exterior, but on the inside remains soft and so incredibly juicy and flavourful. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! The flavours of their Lula kebob are, to my palette, quite different to a traditional koobideh- and please forgive me if it's not meant to be a variation on koobideh-; the Lula has a more complex flavour profile and is, unlike most koobideh's, extremely juicy. It's just absolutely amazing, as is everything else there- but I really keep coming back for the Lula as it's hard to break away from it! I was sad to see the old owners go as I'd developed a casual friendly relationship with them, but the new owner is also absolutely fantastic- a very kind man who treats his customers with the highest level of respect. Sometimes he even includes a treat on the house. The staff are all very kind and courteous. I could go on and on talking about the restaurant to no end, but I'll end it here: you NEED to check this place out if you live anywhere remotely in the area... you will NOT be disappointed- the food and service is absolutely top notch. It's a hidden gem!

Roman T

Good and delicious food , friendly staff

Alejandra Cordoba

The food quality of this restaurant has gradually become worse. The shawarma served was not fresh at all and most pieces were hard and dried up. The chicken dark shish kebob wasn’t cooked thoroughly.. It was raw in the middle! Unfortunately we will not be returning.

Pzfski Sizstki

Good customer service and their lule kebab is the best I've ever had

Food was excellent. Service was quick. Prices are reasonable

Ava Younes

At least once in a week we either having breakfast or dinner at this restaurant. It is clean, friendly and gorgeous environment. As for the food, there is no other place that could prepare you a kebab the way Belle does.
