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.

    Amazing food, amazing service, great vibes. Only complaint is that it is a little too dim in the restaurant — would be nice to have better lighting in at least one area for pictures.

    The restaurant offers an exceptional experience with authentic Middle Eastern flavors, and every dish is prepared with great professionalism. Over several visits, I’ve tried almost all the menu items, and each time I became even more convinced of their excellence. The only remark I have is about the high prices of some dishes compared to the portion sizes, especially the seafood.

    I've been here 3 times now and overall I love it. I was excited to introduce it to my parents and siblings but for some reason the 3rd time wasn't as good of an experience. The appetizers were amazing, mains were just ok this time. We were seated next to the station where servers pull out plates/utensils and it was super loud because of this and just in general. Still really like the restaurant but would not want to be seated in the separate section.

    Service from greeting to payment was attentive and exemplary. The food recommendations were spot on and everything we ate was outstanding. We also loved the ambiance and are planning to return with friends early in the new year.
