“It was our first time at Jerusalam Shawarma Skyview, Calgary. Absolutely delectable! A must try for anyone seeking Middle Eastern Cuisine. The falafel was crispy on the outside tender on the inside. The beef shawarma wrap was a perfect balance of savory meat, fresh veggies, and tangy sauce all wrapped up. Thank you to Khan. His warm demeanor and genuine hospitality elevate the overall enjoyment of the restaurant.“
“We ordered 2 Chicken shawarma platters and dolmas. You definitely get your moneys worth. They give you so much food and the food is amazing!! They even gave us some Falafels to try. Awesome service and great food, we would highly recommend!!“

“Had an amazing lunch at Jerusalem Shawarma. Ordered the chicken shawarma plate and it was delicious. My order was prepared by Moslah, his service was wonderful and prepared my order perfectly. The ambience over there gives the impression of a family friendly fine dining. Overall I really enjoyed my experience there.“

The service was also so warm and friendly. Truly above and beyond in all regards. I highly recommend a visit!Vegetarian options: Delicious and fresh! Lots of veggie options.“
“Glad to see that Damas Cafe re-open after closing due to Covid-19. This place has the best Mediterranean food I've had and it's the only place in Canada who do fried chicken mediterranean style. The food is always fresh and tasty, especially the kebab, shawarma and falafel. The owner's enthusiasm and passion for great authentic test and quality food. I've been few times so far and it's quite clear that he takes great pride of providing customers with a quality dish every time. I wish I could eat food from here everyday. Highly recommend!“
“Went with family, all Jurasalem foods are great but this location was the top one so far. We really love the food specially fries taste like home made. Free tea and baklava was the plus. Amazing friendly staff. We definitely come back. Thank you for the great hospitality. Keep it up! Turkish crew.“
“I wish I could give 10 stars. Stumbled upon this spot randomly. The owner was fast, friendly and funny. We had some good laughs as he made up my donairs. Offered a sample of the beef with a different sauce. All around great experience. Would highly recommend and will be a return customer!“
“Recently, I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant for Sohour and was thoroughly impressed. The food was nothing short of amazing, each dish bursting with flavor. The ambiance of the place is perfect for gatherings, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal with friends or family. The staff deserves a special mention for their courteous service, adding to the overall positive experience. What sets this restaurant apart is its unique Egyptian vibe, which adds an authentic touch to the dining experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable meal.“
“Great food, I feel like its improved over the years. I love the chili chicken in gravy over veg hakka noodles. (The spice level here I find way hotter than other places and I can handle heat but the lowest "mild/regular spice for chili chicken is still really hot). The chicken korma was good and naan. Papri chat was good too. Still have to try their other dished.Dietary restrictions: Halal options, told me the chicken, beef and lamb is all halal except the chicken tikka dish.“
“This place is really special because they actually make their own donairs. If you eat at almost any given shawarma place, the beef donair you taste tends to be pretty similar across the city. This place you can actually taste that it's different and that it's their own recipe because it's a taste like no other in the whole city. Less spice and more beef. Their chicken is also really good too. Very flavorful and juicy. They sometimes do a lamb or bison too. Not much options in the toppings and sauces but they have your usual suspects. Pita is pretty generic but it works. Very friendly owner. Small place, busy during lunch rush hour but they make it pretty quick.“
“Amazing place loved it and i went there with my friends and we all are chefs working in the industry so just being treated so well and the service was so excellent and the food was full of flavour and cooked to perfection?Thank you for the lovely experience.“
“Came here with my cousin after a good workout and this place hit the spot like no other. Stavro helped us out with immaculate customer service even checking in after asking us how it was because he knew his shawarma is top notch. Both of us ordered a mixed shawarma plate and I would say that the portions are the most bang for your buck in the whole city not the mention that the flavour was incredible! I will most definitely be coming back!“
“This place has the best shawarma in Calgary. The chicken here is incredible and everything else is very good. The only thing I wish was better is the pita. It was okay. But everything else, amazing. Especially the chicken. I wish I took a photo of the entire platter but here’s my plate instead. I was just too excited to eat.“
“Went in for a late-night donair and was so impressed with the quality. I got a beef donair and they absolutely packed it with meat. The sauces were tangy, the vegetables fresh and crisp. They also added cheese for a fee, which was immense. Fantastic place, the gentlemen working were polite and friendly. I should add they even threw in a pastry, what a gem of a place.“
“Amazing experience. The food was incredible and the employees helped make recommendations and were super friendly! Highly recommend this place. The only thing I will say I think could be improved is when you first walk in and there is a line, it is a bit difficult to see the entire menu from the end of the line... Makes it difficult to see all the amazing options!“
“We hired Jerusalem Shwarma for our wedding. The food is delicious and customer service is fast at responding. They went above and beyond to avoid my allergies! However, they were late to serve dinner and when I was eating leftovers the next day I found a sharp piece of metal baked into a slice of potato. When I told them about it nothing was done.“
“I regularly visit this store for my falafel shawarma and shawarma chicken wrap.Happy, Jasan and Navneet are the team members running the show. Always greet you with a friendly smile and properly discuss the ingredients and make your food with love.Vegetarian options: Falafel“
“We LOVE the Chicken shawarma’s at this location!! Customer service is excellent as well!! Sadia is always very friendly, and cares about her job and quality of food and customer service!! If you’re craving an excellent shawarma, head to Shawarma Passion!!“
“The staff are very friendly but it's the amazing food that keeps me coming back. Have been a long-time customer of over 15 years. Even though I live in a different province now, I make a point of returning here every visit. Without exaggeration, THE BEST falafel I've ever had in my life. They cook it fresh right in front of you. Highly, highly recommend!“
“Best shawarma in calgary i swear. Been going here since i was 6 years old and im 19 now, there obviously a very good reason why they are still in business and get reoccurring customers daily. Because there food is amazing The chicken is my favourite and everything is always fresh and flavourful, never tastes bad. And prices are hard to beat. Really, best prices all of calgary“
“i love this place. food is consistently high quality, like a dine in restaurant not just take out. beautiful decor. tonight i asked for a cup of tea and the staff person really went above and beyond and shared tea with all of us. what a nice place to get a good quick dinner.“
“If your ask for service and taste, then i will recommend for Avesta Shwarma. If you need tremendous service then go in the evening time. You can meet Mr. Navjoyt who will s always polite and great in services.I am sure you will recommend others once you will go there. ??Parking: Lots of parking space available“
“I decided to stop in here and try the fully loaded poutine. It was the best poutine I've ever had. The guys working inside were friendly and polite, the food was absolutely amazing and the portion was so large that I couldn't finish it in one sitting. My only regret is that I never went in there sooner. I work on the same street as them and have been passed this place hundreds of times. They are now one of my new favorite places. If you're ever looking for a good place to eat, I'd highly recommend Petra Shawarma. They would get more than a 5 star rating if I could. In my opinion, you guys are killing it, keep doing what you're doing. I'm definitely going to be back. Thanks for the great food and great service.“
“If I could give more stars I would. The portions are amazing, a medium is some places large. The ratios are perfect, would not ask for more or less of anything. I get the chicken shawarma and the seasoning is on point. The man who runs the place is super nice as well. I contemplated not writing a review because I wanted to gate keep my favourite spot but it's just so good“
“Couldn't decide what I wanted for lunch, then I saw someone go by with a donair and knew where to go. I had the mixed wrap with everything. It was delicious! The man that made the wrap (I think the owner, Sal?) was super nice as was the man ringing every one through. You can tell there were regulars which always makes me happy to see. In the +15 above the 7-11.“
“This place is amazing! So glad we have it in our area. The only complaint I have is 4.00 for a drink… that’s quite expensive. Lovely people though and the food is perfection. Service can be slow when it’s busy but I take it as they’re cooking it to perfection!“
“If you are looking for a delicious and authentic Middle Eastern meal, you should try House of Kabob. This restaurant serves freshly made stews, salads, and kabobs that are seasoned and flame broiled to perfection. You can choose from different types of meat, such as beef, chicken, lamb, or salmon, or opt for a veggie souvlaki if you prefer. The portions are generous and the prices are reasonable. Lori the staff is friendly. Food and service is awesome ?“
“Took my family here last night, hands down in the top 3 best donairs in the city. Great price and NO run to the bathroom when we got home. They have the only bison Donaire in the city and the owners are super friendly as well as have been making donairs for decades. It's a must have!!!“
“Yesterday we tried Rotana for the first time and won't be the last one. We had an amazing time, great food and service and definitely reasonable prices. Thank you Rami for your hospitality and generosity ❤❤we wish you all the best.“
“I absolutely love dining in at Luxor. The spicy chicken Mummy Wrap with a side of house tomato salad is my fave and they offer a lot of different sides with the wraps depending on what's behind the counter so don't be scared to ask! My toddler recommends the fries, the pita and hummus as well as the hot chocolate. Hours can be weird sometimes but it's a small business we're always happy to support.Vegetarian options: Falafel, hummus, salads, all very good.Kid-friendliness: The lady running this place is so kind to children and the atmosphere is unpretentious, great for families.“
“I ordered a very large group order with over 30 items and it was delivered perfectly, on time. The restaurant even labelled everything by name and called me to let me know the order was on the way. Above and beyond customer service and everything tasted great.“
“I think I may have found my new favourite Falafel Wrap spot for when I'm on the go!!!! ?Falafel are formed and fried fresh for your order (so important - other places get the frozen ones in, or microwave/flash fry their in-house made ones).Hot sauce is to die for. It's actually spicy and flavourful; so much better than all the vinegar of Frank's or whatever that faux-racha is that some places have now.I'll definitely be making excuses to rip downtown just to pick up a Falafel wrap. So good!Parking: Parking can be tricky, as there is a bus stop directly out front, and no parking across the street, on the street. Just read the signs on the road and you'll be able to figure it out ?“
“I'm their regular customer..Avesta's food is soooo goooooood and delicious..they give extra sauces as well if u ask them to and they dont even charge u extra for it..i love their food soo much definitely recommended!!!! the quality and quantity is awsomee!!“
“Honest unpaid and unsponsored Review after almost 3 months of weekend visits:1. Staff is friendly and greets you well.2. Order preparation is hygienic and exactly per request. Never will you ever see them handling food without gloves, which is great.3. Food has always been consistent in terms of taste and quantity.4. Pricing is amazing. Your Shawarma platter will last you two whole meals.5. There is no judgment when you ask for some extra veggies or sauces.Shawarma platter Hack: Get your free pita and buy 1 or 2 falafels. Make a burito with your pita, veggies and falafel, this is your meal 1. Rest is your meal 2.“
“We were hungry after spending the day looking for a replacement vehicle. Pulled into a lot with several restaurants. Never had Yemeni food, so went into House of Mandi. Warm welcome. Ordered what the hostess recommended. Tremendous food. Excellent hospitality. Great prices. A long ways away from where we live, but will go again. Thank you.“
“This was a seriously good plate of food -tons of chicken, I counted 8 types of veggies on the whole plate -turnip, onion, pickle, chick pea in a hummus, parsley, tomatoes, lettuce, and potato. It had rice and a lovely side dish of warmed and toasted pita. It was enough to feed either 2-3 persons.“
“Had a beef donair with my husband and it was pretty Damn good:)love how they use regular dill pickles and love that they use chilli sauce instead of the siracha. Definitely a game changer. Staff were very friendly and informative. will be going back to try more of the menu:)“
“We went with friends of ours and had the Saltans Feast! It was the best array of the best tasting food we have ever had! Everything was so delicious and melted in our mouths! We highly recommend this hidden gem in South Calgary! We will be going back again and again-atmosphere is very tasteful and comfortable -“
“Cafe Med is an over the top amazing experience. 17th Avenue can be outrageously popular on a Friday evening, so it was refreshing to not have to stand in line, wait for service, and yell across the table to your date over dinner. Furthermore, it's not always necessary to have libations. Ahmed, our server, was so helpful and very engaging in conversation. Fortunate for me, they were doing the menu photoshoot so check out the display of food!“
“Comforting food and SPICY! Be careful of their hot sauce. You’ll love it if you like spicy!I would give 5 stars if the portion is consistent and bigger. They give bigger portions when you come in person compared to ubering. But the portions get smaller and smaller these days. Shrinkflation?“
“Wow this place is great!! My husband is working across the street and I went with him to work I really had to use a washroom so I used theirs. I assumed that I would have to buy something as I used their washroom but all I had was 4$ the young man working was so kind he let me go and he even gave me a sample of their deserts when I get paid I’ll definitely be coming here to support this business that’s the kind of love that I like to see from people“
“I ordered falafel from Uber it took an hour ti get my food and they messed up my order too. I didn't get what was shown on the picture. Garlic sauce all over my falafels while it wasn't not like that on the picture. I called to complain they didn't care. Last time order getting anything from them. I do not want surprise I want what I ordered.“
“The Filipino guy who’s making the Shawarma today morning March 19, 2024 but I forgot to ask his name was excellent making shawarma, we order beef lamb wrap and chicken wrap plus 2 order no. 12 platters it was so good and yummy this 2 ladies all the staff this morning did excellent job keep up the good Taste of and good employees environment, this better than Jollibee.“
“Good place to have a quick Mediterranean meal. If you love Mediterranean food, it could be your comfort food. In terms of service, it depends on the location. I have had both good and bad experiences. Nonetheless, it is not a fine dining establishment, so don't expect exemplary service. While bad service should not be tolerated, it is best to try to ignore it as much as possible.“
“Food, and service are excellent. Booths are a bit aged but it is clean, well upkept and obviously a hot spot for locals! We were visiting and found it online. Steady stream of customers staying and to go and ordering out. We had the bbq family plate for 3. $60. We were all stuffed and there was still lots left to take home. Our server Mohammad was super friendly and constantly on point with making sure we had everything we needed. They greet you with fresh pressed juice, hot tea and a piece of baklava. Will be back for sure. $60 for the 3 of us. Well worth it. It just made our list of go to's“
