We’re in the midst of Ramadan and for those who are unfamiliar, observing this holiday means abstaining from eating and drinking among other things from dawn until sunset, and taking the time to focus on prayer, charity, and spiritual reflection.
When the sun goes down, you break your fast, otherwise known as “Iftar” and restaurants across Toronto and the GTA are hosting spectacular Iftar dinners with delicious special menus.
Here are seven Iftar dinners to explore
Afghan Flame
You can’t go wrong with an endless spread of Afghani delicacies and this buffet-style menu features those bold flavours beautifully. It’s $45 per adult, children 5-10 are 50% off and children under 4 are FREE. There is a blackout period from 6:30 pm-9 pm for dine-in only as guests will be breaking their fasts, all at the same time – at sunset.
You can find them at two locations: 2555 Erin Centre Rd, Mississauga and 4910 Tomken Rd, Mississauga.
Naan Kabob
If you’d still like to sample those staple Afghani flavours a little closer to the east end, this spot features favourites like Tandoori Chicken kabob, Zamarut Palau, and Firni Pudding buffet-style. It’s $39.99 per adult, and children 4-12 are just $19.99.
You can find them at two locations: 1780 Markham Rd Toronto and 5042 Satellite Dr Unit F3, Mississauga.
Arbequina Restaurant
If you’re into shareable, this restaurant has a prix fixe menu for $95 per person with a Mocktail and eight included dishes like Taboon Chicken Shish Tawouk, Angus Short Ribs, and sticky date toffee.
You can find them at 325 Roncesvalles Ave, Toronto.
Sultan Ahmet Turkish Cuisine
This late night buffet boasts over 40 mouthwatering Turkish classics and some western dishes like pastas and salads. It’s heaven for the meat lovers with their signature barbecue on deck every night and at just $35 per person, you’ll be stuffed and your wallet will be happy.
You can find them at three locations across Ontario: 5055 Plantation Pl, Mississauga, 3505 Wyecroft Rd Oakville, and 575 Bank St, Ottawa.
Milky Lane Cafe
This tasty cafe is open for both Iftar AND Suhoor, the pre-fasting meal meant to provide all the essential nutrients you need to get through your fast, and they’re doing it right with this curated menu. Featuring rose matcha and pistachio crunch pancakes for Suhoor and a loaded Ramadan feast platter for Iftar, it’s the best spot to go to for the sweet tooth or for that family that loves to try a little bit of everything.
