Best Casual Restaurants in Dovercourt Village

I hear a lot of different feedbacks and mostly mention the restaurant is not consistent, and I finally have a chance to try it myself, the server is excellent and he was able to create the experience much better than I thought, food wise was ok maybe my expectations was too high, but overall not worth the money they charged

Had a wonderful time the food was top notch as always and the service was amazing as well. Shout out to our server Matthew, Amanda, Chef Aaron and the whole front and back of house Team. Thank you and see you soon.

Food was phenomenal, service from Neal and team was amazing, vibe was immaculate. Can’t wait to return. What we ordered, Endive salad - beautifully balanced and fresh Seafood tower - so fresh and amazing flavours. Only note is that the crab legs are very much whole so was a little difficult to shuck ourselves but we managed. Popcorn clams and mussels - light, crispy, delicious. Order it!! Skate wing - Cooked perfectly, surprising flavour combinations but worked so so well Surf ‘n’ turf - ugh, amazing. Perfectly cooked lobster, crispy sweetbreads, sauce was nicely seasoned and rich NY strip - nicely cooked and great flavour. Only note was that although cooked perfectly mid rare, the actual temperature of the steak was a little cold but not a huge deal English chips - best french fries ever eaten. Malt powder and beef fat, can’t go wrong Banoffee pie - very rich, could use a smidge of acidity to cut through it but still excellent Drinks are also great. Both alcoholic and non. Had too many of each to remember for this review. Overall, fantastic night. Will be back many times.

I only have great things to say about Levant! It was one of the first restaurants we visited after the lockdown. We were warmly welcomed by the owner and had a meal as fantastic as the hospitality. We recently had occasion to visit again - the experience did not disappoint. Our server was attentive, kind, and incredibly helpful in choosing dishes to accommodate our dietary restrictions. The cocktails were refreshing and novel. The baba ganoush was deliciously smokey and enough that we came home with leftovers. My partner and I both enjoyed our (not) pizzas. The crust is reminiscent of pan pizza from your childhood with flavour combinations that highlight the best of middle eastern fare. I cannot recommend Levant enough!

Well deserving of its recent Michelin Bib status, and only after 10 years :). Very creative and excellent cuisine in a casual and friendly atmosphere.
