Middle Eastern Restaurants near Burnaby, BC

“Currently my favourite donair joint in the city. Found them by chance one night when most places around were closed. Their donair and plates are super delicious and healthy. I usually don't like falafel, but became a fan of theirs! The customer service is also super-friendly and courteous every time. The quality went down at the donair restaurant I previously frequented, so I am really happy I found Donair Delight! I am already a regular here.“

“Went there recently and ordered a lamb donair, and the new lady there made the best donair I have ever had, not just randomly slapped together, but built properly with meat on one side and the veggies on the other side, it both tasted fantastic and looked delicious.“

“superb cuisine, loved it ..“

“If there was more than 5 stars ⭐️ rating I would give them 10 stars ⭐️
The taste and the flavours are the OFFICIAL middle eastern cuisine
The price is lowest by far ( for the quality and quantity)

I am a middle eastern and I know exactly how to compare and select the real tastes of this cuisine in Vancouver and suburbs.

Way to go guys ?“

“I have had Donair from here a few times and when I did it slapped. There was a good amount of meat ?? and the sauce was pretty good. The big selling point is that the food here is cheaper then nearby competition yet it still filles you up ❤️??.

the inside of the restaurant is really off-putting though and it dosent look the best/aesthetic. The service is also, okay, like the staff do their job but aren't really frirndly/chill yk can't really give w them ? “

“Amazing food! Amazing staff! Cultural! Love it! Chef is the real deal!“

“Really good food. Pleasant staff.“

“Such great food! The servers are second to none and the live entertainment on Saturday was amazing! 10/10 would do it again!“

“Great food good service 5 out of 5“

“We drive up and down Kingsway daily but only noticed Zamzam a couple of weeks ago while sitting in traffic. We made it a point to go there last night (Saturday at about 6pm). We ordered one chicken shawarma wrap and one chicken plate. The restaurant was clean and the staff were extremely friendly. There were 3 staff behind the counter, all of them smiling, joking with us, talkative and friendly. Our order was to go, that was a mistake because our car smelled so good we almost pulled over to consume the food! We got home and in our opinion, the food was fantastic! We will be back again. Zamzam also provides a stamp card for free shawarma after 10 stamps! Wish we had come by sooner. :)“

“Homa restaurant has healthy and delicious food and its employees are kind, active and compassionate with new management. Thank you.“

“The food was amazing and excellent value for money. Also the options were a little different from what you usually get. The fried eggplant is out of this world good! Great service too.“

“This is an awesome place to be for fast and tastiest food . I was there with a friend yesterday who introduced me to this and today I woke up , got ready to get another box for my second day. With the food, the lady who attends to you is very nice as well. While you wait for the food , she offered me a hot chai tea and a snack to taste. Great service with a smile . #supportsmallBusiness . Thank you for great good“

“It's so good! Generous serving size, great customer service. ?

I've been living in the area for almost 2 years. I can't believe it took me this long to try this place. Definitely adding it to my regular New West eats.

Just wish they had more space for seats.

“Delicious Chicken Wraps. Loves the sauce (tzatziki). Excellent service. Portions are filling.“

“Friendly atmosphere and staff.Affordable and variety of menu.“

“Really good waffles and really good lattes“

“Got chicken rice plate. Reviews say huge portion but i guess due to inflation they no longer do. Portion is fair. Chicken was a little dry but edible. Sauce is great. Feta in the salad is good, salad is ok. Other than that i enjoyed it. Tasty. Top 5 donair of the 30+ places Ive had. Place is clean“

“This shawarma place and I had an incredible experience. The falafel wrap was an absolute delight—bursting with flavor and generously filled. The spacious seating provided a comfortable atmosphere, and the server's infectious smile and attentiveness added to the positive vibe. What impressed me most was the diverse range of wrap options, including Lebanese, Greek, Hawaiian, German, and Turkish styles. The combination of cold veggies and creamy garlic with the hot falafel made for a satisfying and memorable meal.“

“Made it from Portland to Vancouver after work before they closed. Super awesome.“

“I've been to many Pakistani restaurants but Karakoram Restaurant stands out for its authentic flavors and generous portions. The karahi was spicy and savory, and the basmati rice was fluffy and fragrant. The staff were friendly and attentive and the prices were very reasonable. I'll be back for more of their delicious dishes!“

“Ayam Zaman is hands down my favorite restaurant! The food was amazing as always and the staff made the experience even better with their kindness and warm hospitality. The service was exceptional, and I truly appreciated Diana for going the extra mile to make everything perfect. Thank you! Highly recommend! <3“

“I literally stumbled across this place on my way home from the airport. I hadn't had lunch and it was 2:30pm, I took a right off Night St, glanced to my right and there it was.
I had a chicken and beef wrap, the meat was thick cut and there was so much flavor from the other ingredients in the wrap. Highly recommended! Please note they only accept cash or debit, no credit cards.“

“I love, love, love their chicken! So juicy and flavourful! And I'm a picky eater, not easy to impress. By far, my favourite place to get lunch. I usually get chicken wrap but the dill rice in the plate dish is also very good (and I don't even like rice too much)!“

“Cheap and large quantity. The boss is very nice.
The taste is ordinary, a bit bland, the rice is not very good, and it is oily. If you eat a hair, it's not a big problem.
A large mutton platter and a drink cost 17 Canadian dollars.
There is no dine-in, but you can sit outside and eat in the open air.“

“I ordered salmon kebab with shirazi salad on the side - I usually get their delicious Koobide kebab- and it was super! Great taste! Aref , the manager and the staff are so friendly, hospitable and professional. Besides, my portion was extremely generous. I definitely try it again.
“

“Delicious grill shawarma and the ambience“

“I had the pleasure of experiencing Mansi’s extraordinary service and her incredible shawarma. Mansi goes above and beyond to ensure that each customer leaves satisfied and happy. Her attention to detail and friendly demeanor make the dining experience truly special. Highly recommended ?“

“"I had an amazing dining experience last night! The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, with friendly staff who made us feel right at home. The menu offered a wide variety of options, and I opted for the chicken and rice which was cooked to perfection. The flavors were incredible, and the portion size was generous. I ended the meal with a delicious baklava that left me wanting more. Overall, I highly recommend for a wonderful night out. Can't wait to go back!“

“Amazing food and friendly staff. Thank you for the delicious meals! Always satisfied!“

“Very spacious and open indoors. Right next to Persia foods. Food is extremely great value for the amount you get, very fair prices. Chicken was moist, beef was delicious. It was a good place for a quick lunch. Only one thing was that service was a little slow, but we could see them working hard.“

“i've been going to Donair Affair quite alot these days. the price is right and the wraps i order (super beef or super chicken) always hits the spot. The ladies that help me are always wonderful to deal with and very friendly. Bonus is that this location is close to where I live. My order is always the super beef or chicken, light on the white sauces. YUM!“

“This spot is great!Service is always quick and employees are polite. I’m in a job site near by and have been coming here twice a week! If you’re keto the salads a delicious and if not even better. Tried the Mayan rice bowl. Today. Loving it.“

“It was very busy when I arrived and there was only one person working. But oh my did he work! I had to wait a bit but I haven't seen such fantastic effort for a fast food restaurant before. Not to mention the Super Donairs were absolutely stuffed to the seams and tasted delicious!“

“Excellent food and good service“

“The freshly made bread is the best. I stop by this family run business every time I'm in town!“

“This homey and authentic joint is awesome! Mediterranean food by far is incredibly underrated and absolutely delicious.Everything has that good old homemade with love, pride and outstandiny effort factor.I got a few Falafels to go for a light snack. Very reasonable fare for fresh, crispy yet super light and soft in the middle yummy falafel pucks.Support local businesses!“

“Consistently delicious, I've been coming here for years. Friendly and prompt service, wide selection of beverages, they play sports on the TV, and get this: THEY SERVE DELICIOUS BAKLAVA. Very concerning the lack of baklava at other donair/falafel places these days.“

“Amazing stop in tonight! Friends and I stopped in after a beach day in town, Kyra served us; great recommendations for cocktails and beer and food.

Started with crispy cauliflower with avocado tahini dip and lamb gravy poutine. Brilliant!

Then I had the lamb burger which was CRAZY and buds shared the lamb chops, also amazing, with the dip served.

Will be back to try more things, A++++

The cool cuke 10/10 alcohol taste blended well, refreshing, engaging

Bourbon sunset 12/10 booze forward, citrus plum notes, nice strong cocktail.“

“This restaurant serves the best Fesenjoon I’ve ever had! Every dish is packed with incredible flavors, and the quality is consistently outstanding. I keep coming back because they never disappoint, and their food is always fresh and delicious. The service is also top-notch! I absolutely love this place and will keep ordering from them!“

“I had a fantastic experience with Navjot and Yuvraj. Their service was exemplary, showcasing their commitment to personalized care and attention to detail. They went out of their way to customize their approach to meet my needs, resulting in a smooth and highly satisfactory experience. I highly recommend their services for anyone looking for exceptional customer care and tailored solutions.“

“Amazing traditional middle eastern products. Hummus, baba ganoush, tzaziki, ... All delicious. Have only tried a hand full of their products and looking forward to try some more. That homemade almond butter is in my list!Staff is super friendly, super helpful with recommendations and let you have a little taste of things to make the decision making process easier.If you are in the area and fancy to buy some delicious products, look no longer!“

“i went there today around 11am with my husband tried their Friday deal surprisingly the food was really tasty awesome food presentation too if anyone want to eat Indian food like home then must give it a try it’s worthy as well as delicious“

“The best Persian restaurant in town“

“Absolutely delightful to have a midnight snack option in this neighborhood. Food is great, service is good in terms of being prompt with no wait - but either your mild is way too spicy or I didn't receive my wrap as a mild - to be fair I was warned that the individual who made my order is known for mistakes. Will have to be back to see how mild 'mild' actually another day...

Vegetarian options: "Beyond Meat" is on the menu

Parking: Strip mall adjacent to a Walmart; parking galore“

“this place has one of the best doinar in new westminster, the chicken and beef are really good“

“Great place for a quick bite! Friendly staff :)

Vegetarian options: I could never be a vegetarian so I’m useless on that

Dietary restrictions: Add no meat, and no shell. Gluten free.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes sir“

“We loved the size and flavour of the large beef pita wraps! The restaurant seems to use really fresh ingredientes – we chose the discount sale on DoorDash and the food could feed us for two days. The pita bread was the highlight – the dough was really soft and tasty.“
