From the OpenTable editors: Amal dazzles diners with bright, stylish decor that draws inspiration from traditional Lebanese design. This alluring Yorkville restaurant backs up its good looks with an expertly executed Middle Eastern menu that touches on all the classics—dips paired with housemade pita, mezze, well-seasoned skewer platters, and shawarma.

Amal Restaurant delivers an exquisite Middle Eastern dining experience with "amazing food, atmosphere, and service." Guests rave about its "authentic Lebanese" cuisine and "beautiful setting." While the "truffle rakakat" and "sticky date cake" are fan favorites, the "hospitality was unmatched." Despite some noise, the overall ambiance is "elevated but not pretentious."

    Our third time at Amal and it was as good and unique as the first time. We highly recommend this restaurant and if you have out of town guests, you will definitely impress. The staff are so pleasant, attentive and knowledgeable. The cocktails are delicious and different. The outdoor patio is lovely. The occasional siren or horn reminds you that you are in the heart of the city but it's by no means a deterrent. The Fatoush salad is so fresh and good palette cleanser, definitely try the Rakakat. The entire menu is wonderful, you really can't go wrong. The chicken kabobs were perfectly cooked and so tender. Go often and try everything.

    Celebrated my birthday at Amal with my girls and it was honestly perfect. The vibe, the food, the service, the entertainment and music was top tier. They made the whole night feel so special and the energy was just right. If you’re looking for a beautiful spot with amazing food and even better vibes, Amal is it.

    The Hummus, Hummus Basil, Baba Ghanoush, Fatoush salad were very delicious. The pita bread is fresh and warm. I reccommend the BBQ combo, pita lox and chicken shawarma. Our server is very attentive and nice. We came here for lunch to celebrate my birthday. They gave us chocolate cake with ice cream on top. Very delicious. The atmosphere in the resto is relaxing and inviting.

    The place is absolutely stunning and the server who was helping us was amazing and very welcoming. The food however is average at best and for the price point, expected more value and taste.
