In the land of chain restaurants, Yasmine’s offers an original and unique take on Mediterranean cuisine. Dedicated to showcasing the full spectrum of flavours that Lebanon has to offer, expert chefs use the freshest ingredients to create exquisitely delicious dishes that range from classic favourites to innovative creations with unexpected contemporary twists.
Over centuries, Lebanese cuisine developed a somewhat familiar but unique character through Turkish, Arab, and French influences. Based very much on what was available through the seasons, what was borne through necessity became treasured comfort foods, and always with a creative eye on opportunities for ways to enhance each dish in the most pleasing way.
The Scene
Hospitality is as crucial to Lebanese culture as the cuisine. Enjoy the warm Mediterranean ambiance as you pass by the generous patio and are transported to Lebanon as you enter Yasmine’s. Shades of blue and teal and evocative wall art fill the bright and airy space. You may be greeted by owners Bilal or Farah. You’ll soon understand why Yasmine’s was so honoured by last year’s Trip Advisor’s Travellers Choice Award and rated so highly locally in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern Restaurants, International Food, Fine Dining, Caterers and Take-out. Everything is designed for a truly complete culinary experience.

Menu Highlights
Lebanese cuisine’s ancient roots are grounded in traditions that enhance the community through the sharing of meals together, and Yasmine’s continues that practice. A number of the mezza — appetizers — are perfect for sharing, but there are other dining options designed for a couple, a family, or a larger group.
Choose from main dishes such as the beautifully executed Mixed Grill Platter or one of Yasmine’s specialties like their Lamb Chops, marinated and charbroiled French-cut lamb chops served with truffle mashed potatoes, sautéed vegetables and gravy.
Lebanese and other imported wines or a special cocktail will complement your meal, and be sure to leave room for dessert. Crème Brûlée … Lebanese Ice Cream … Homemade Cheesecake … The choices are sublime.
