50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Calgary

“Regular customer here. Food is great, service is fast, clean dining area. I would like to recognize Francis the "all-around guy" for being accomodative, friendly and excellent customer service! Highly recommended place to eat!“

“The best donair in the city.“

“We ordered the falafel shawarma for dinner and were told it would take approximately 5 minutes as it's made fresh to order.

The wrap was packed full of vegetables and falafel. I picked the garlic and sweet sauces and my only complaint would be that they put too much sauce on it, making it super soggy while eating.

Appreciated they put the wraps in a panini style wrap to give it a nice finish.“

“The best place to enjoy the art of shawarma“

“Friendly staff, excellent selections, and delicious food. The baklava is some of the best I've had. I'll be back.“

“The service in this place is second to none!!! So very friendly and helpful!! Tea while ordering and baklava for desert!! Was delicious and overall a great experience!“

“Best Shawarma in the town ❤❤❤“

“I just had the best chicken shawarma I’ve ever had. The meat was juicy and delicious with a savoury brightness that I’ve never before experienced - secret spice blend! The vegetables and pickles were crisp and crunchy with layers of flavour. The sandwich had the ideal amount of sauce to enrobe the ingredients without making the bread soggy - the toasting added crunchiness and enviable grill marks. The fries and garlic sauce were a great accompaniment! Hot crispy fries tossed with another secret blend were plentiful and piping hot! The garlic sauce was astounding - very garlicky and a wonderful consistency. Great value, superb food and very friendly service. I will gladly drive across town to eat here. I suggest you make the journey- it’s well worth it!“

“amazing service! they definitely take pride in their food. very accommodating for my allergies. highly recommend.“

“First time customer and wow, it was amazing!“

Affordable, fresh and delicious!!
Thank you!
We are now regulars“

“I chose the lamb meatballs and cauliflower. Totally superb food. See pics. We were a table of 8 and my only complaint was that they added 20% automatically to the bill (which I kinda get) but our server did not point that out. I find it bordering on unethical that she wouldn't mention it, because a couple of people added a further tip because they weren't aware. Hey management, it left a sour taste when you added 20% like that, so you should change your practice to at least mention it out of respect and courtesy. However I gave you 5 because the food and ambience were superb. Take a look at the pics of the dry aged lamb, yummy!“

“We ordered lunch for 20 people for a University meeting at Vet Med - service and food was fantastic! Never disappointed with this food!“

“Best Shawarma I've had in Calgary by far. Super friendly staff.“

“Very tasty food and I wish to visit“

“While visiting Calgary during summer 2024, my brother and I stopped by this Shawarma House. The owner was welcoming, and shared his stories with us and made us feel at home. The food was amazing and freshly prepared. He even gave us plenty of fresh baklava to take with us. If you are looking for great food with friendly faces and hospitality, this is a great place to visit. Thank you!“

“Really fun dinner spot. We came here for Valentine’s Day, and we had a really great time. We got the potato gems, popcorn octopus (with tzatziki substitute), lamb ribs, and the chicken souvlaki, and it was all amazing. The chicken souvlaki was definitely the highlight, I would recommend! The kitchen was willing to accommodate our request for a sauce substitute for the octopus, and we had an overall great experience with the staff. The vibes were great, and I would definitely visit again!“

“I think I would rate it as 3.7 for the food , the taste of the shawarma is decent, I think I forgot to ask them to heat my pita bread, the flavors of the meat were little bit toned down I think it could be made little bit more intense.

Very clean place and Staff wars also friendly

The guy who was making my food was very helpful and gave good service“

“The shawarma here is absolutely fantastic—juicy, well-seasoned, and perfectly cooked. The portions are generous, and the toppings are fresh, adding a great balance of flavors and textures. The service is quick and friendly, making it an ideal spot for a satisfying meal on the go. If you’re a fan of authentic shawarma, this place is a must-try!“

“So flavourful and generous with the portions“

“Extremely friendly people, aesthetic and clean restaurant, they pay such close attention to detail and the FOOD oh my god. My partner is 6’5 and everywhere we go now is such a scam, it’s seems he’s always left hungry. No value for your money anymore! BUT THIS PLACE SAVED US!!!! The portion sizes are amazing, you really feel taken care of by the staff and the food is beyond blessed. So tasty, nutritious and filling. I hope they never change the portion sizes or the service. It’s the sole reason we keep coming back. Keep it up guys! You are AMAZING! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Love the service there, valerie was super sweet and helpful. Thank you for the excellent service!“

“the absolute best shawarmas and donair in the city by far. shawarma palace is the only place that goes from rotisserie, to grill to wrap, never a steam tray. others will say hot and fresh , but shawarma palace is the only one that supports their claim consistently. always an awesome experience. thank you, shawarma palace for making your food the proper way , fresh and hot off the grill!“

“I absolutely love Doughlisous, they make the best pitas I've ever had hands down. My family goes out of our way just to get pitas from them. absolutely everything there is amazing not just the pitas. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.“

“So many options to choose from and quality is great“

“Wow, when you say extra hot, you're not kidding. I was thinking Canadian hot, not European hot. I will just order "Hot" next time. I had the super sized lamb wrap with the works. Can you say DELICIOUS!!! The best wrap I have ever had. I would suggest pickled jalapeños. Regardless, I will be back...“

“Great atmosphere with Kurdish music playing and a good feeling of community. The food was AMAZING, best in the city. Highly recommend.“

“I used to buy maamoul cookies in Montreal and loved them. I purchased some today and found them even tastier than what I remember!!! Everything we got was delicious!! We will be back for sure !!! ❤️ Smiling staffs that were all really nice and helpful.“
