| - Good, simple brunch in a sunny and cozy restaurant.
My boyfriend and I came here two days ago on Saturday at noon on a recommendation from a friend from Montreal. It wasn't our first choice, but by the end of our meal we were glad we came here.
After a 10 minute wait, we were seated and given some English menus, which was nice since we were coming from out of town and didn't know much French. The food on the menu looked really simple - sweet bread, eggs, omelettes, jam... But as I've often heard, a good meal doesn't have to be complicated, and that rings absolutely true for the food we had here. The feta cheese, nuts, and fresh herbs paired really nicely with the different breads they served on the side. The feta omelette that others have written about previously is also really unique and delicious. We also enjoyed the Iranian tea that came in individual teapots. For two, the bill came to just under $25.
We came in only for a quick breakfast before doing some sightseeing, but Byblos does seem like a place to read, relax, or have long conversations with friends. The restaurant was bright and nicely decorated with blankets over the benches, plants near the windows, and books and artwork on the walls. Service was nothing special, but we'd definitely come again for a relaxing meal.
