Good shawarma here.... and oddly enough I love the eggplant. It’s nice to see shawarma done a bit differently here. Always friendly service too!

Upgraded my review from 1 to 3 because someone from the restaurant reached out and asked what could be done to improve things. I personally had a very poor experience and that could just be a one time thing, but the person behind the counter seemed annoyed that I was trying to purchase some food. That soured the experience quickly. Secondly, the plates are quite restricted to what you can have and adding even a slight bit of something extra costs. Let's be honest, an extra piece of something costs the restaurant a fraction of a penny. If a customer has a great experience, they're likely to convert and become return customers, increasing the value of that customer over time - but I got the impression that the person behind the counter was not only uninterested in preparing my meal, but also quite stingy. There are plenty of amazing shawarma places but I wanted to support this location as it is closest to me. I will give the restaurant another try and hope that they will be more friendly and less stingy with the shawarma plate.

Great food, hearty Mediterranean menu. Our visit was a little unconventional. We unfortunately had to wait for the beef to be cooked so it took quite some time. But the guy serving us was very good to us the entire time. We never felt ignored as we waited even with the constant onslaught of take out orders. Fantastic service. Reasonable prices too, I intend to come back to try a platter. Only neutral point is the lackluster setting but it's a grill joint you come for the food.

The best shawarma place in the city as far as I've had. Unusual, fresh made toppings like a great stand alone coleslaw (vinaigrette, not cream) and deep fried saucy eggplant. No extra charge! Do yourself a favour and eat here now.
