Leyle’s Restaurant & Lounge

Leyle’s understands what clients want, good quality food, good service and reasonable prices. My family and I first went to Leyle’s for dinner and we were very impressed by their food! It was clearly made with good quality ingredients and beautifully presented. We went back again for their brunch after a friend recommended it and had to wait few minutes before getting seated. We were there with a toddler but they immediately brought us a high chair and gave us a private and comfortable table. The restaurant was packed and people were clearly enjoying themselves. Once we sat down we knew why it was so popular. There was a variety of delicious Iranian and western breakfast options and my husband and I both agreed the eggs Benedict were spot on! It was wonderful having a variety of Persian delicacies available since we had non-​permian guests with us and they could try yummy dishes that take forever to make at home like their tasty haleem! We have since been back several times with our parents and their friends who have come to love the idea of a Persian Brunch on a Sunday morning. We recently celebrated Iranian New Year there and once again Leyle’s didn’t disappoint. It was good to see them putting their customer’s interest ahead of their own and their staff were so gracious and kind. Would we go back again? definitely!

I came here for the karaōke event on a Wednesday night. The karaōke is just Persian songs and on the stage. The place was not crowded but they were busy from 10pm + till 12:30. I ordered shock top beer (served with too much foam) calamari and sweet potato fries
The bill came up to $ 65 which included 2 glasses of wine
There was also a $ 10 cover charge for the karaōke night (Wednesday and Friday nights)
Everyone was mainly Persian and it seems best to go to this place with a group. The service was really good, we loved our waitress she was really attentive!
The atmosphere was nice, they should add candles on the tables as an extra touch

No star — horrible experience. I went there for brunch/​lunch and Manager has no flexibility as to an expired groupon i had and said i had to come back for dinner. No I’m never going back.

Wow we picked up a groupon deal for a 4 course meal. We had tried the escargot and bruschetta. Both we excellent. We had the garden salad and the dressing was very good with fresh tomato sand spring mix. My date had the pan seared salmon and I had the angus steak. Both were generous size and delicious. We shared the tiramisu cake with fresh berries. I highly recommend this place. We will be back.

Very pleasantly surprised by this upscale Persian/​American restaurant. Excellent food and service. We are bringing friends here Saturday evening.

Despite the negative comments from the groupon experience, they must have changed the menu. We had the salad, shared the calamari, had the steak medium rare and awaiting the dessert now. We found it to be very very good and would definitely come back or refer friends.

Tried Leyle’s for my moms bday dinner. I had the chicken fajitas and my mom had their persian vaziri dish. I was definitely satisfied with this place ! huge portions & delicious food. Really nice looking place too, spoke with owner & he invited us back to try their new buffet brunch starting in 2 weeks as well, which i am looking forward to! if its anything like the dinner it will prob be amazing. Recommend Leyles for sure.

Unethical! This place has truly awful business practices.
— read the original Unilocal page for this business before it moved pages.
— pay attention to the writing style on the other reviews for this business.
We came here using a $ 69 for a 3 course meal for two ($ 119 value). Incredibly misleading as the Groupon leads you to believe you get to choose items from the menu (which is posted on the Groupon site as well) In reality you are forced to choose from steak, salmon or chicken.
The food:
— cleanliness: so many flies… one landed on my food and I snapped a photo of it.
— value: not worth the a la carte prices, not even close. The steak we had was the cheapest cut you could find at the grocery store. I’ve had better steak in a steak and eggs meal at a 24 hour diner.
— food quality: doesn’t even come close to a lower end chain restaurant level (think Applebee’s, Jack Astors, Casey’s)
Will never return.

Excellent quality ingredients, a lot of heart and passion in the making of dishes, and generous portion sizes!
Owner gets into the kitchen himself to make the food, and comes out to get feedback and ensure that customers are satisfied.
Beautiful dining lounge, servers move and behave in a way befitting a fine dining steakhouse.
A real hidden gem in Thornhill — will come back as often as possible!

Tried leyles with party of 8 on Sat night, truly great experience, steak was so tender with chapagne demi glaze and rosemary roast potatoes. Every one enjoyed their food. Salad dressing which it was served with steak was so deleicious. My parents both had seafood which they were raveing about it, vegetables were done right. The décor and service was amazing. Excellent service. I will give them 5 out 5. Thanks for making our night a memorable one !!!
