What User doesn't like about Rumi:
Visit this place last Saturday going from Toronto, comparing places here in Toronto this place was very average. very pricee, never recommend anyone to go there portions were very small like you are tasting something. I order chicken and rice and actually there were 5 spoons of rice in the palate and it was for $19.00 and two small pieces of chicken Not recommended View all feedback. What User likes about Rumi:
This restaurant focusing on North African cuisine is definitely worth checking out. We sat outside on their cute terrace. The food was very tasty with outstanding roasted lamb and tasty Cornish hen. Appetizers are unusual but definitely worth sampling. All in all an excellent neighborhood restaurant. View all feedback.

A visit to Rumi Restaurant offers a mixed experience. While some find the food underwhelming for the price, with small portions and lackluster flavors, others praise the delicious Mediterranean cuisine with Turkish, Iranian, and Indian influences. The cozy atmosphere and excellent service make it a popular choice, despite some inconsistencies with portions and quality. Dishes like Hodja, Kuftah, and unique ice cream flavors stand out, providing a delightful culinary experience. Overall, Rumi Restaurant manages to maintain a standard of quality through challenging times, offering a mix of both disappointment and satisfaction for diners.
