Middle Eastern Restaurants near Richmond, BC

“Delicious grill shawarma and the ambience“

“🥰🥰🥰 good food. Many meat inside 🥰🥰🥰“

“I was here for lunch. The persian food and location is awesome. Its right on Stevestons village with beautiful ocean view.
The ambience and service is awesome. People are friendly and helped me to understand the authentic persian food.

We had appies cauliflower dish and eggplant dish with soft persian bread. The eggplant spread with bread is the killer. Must try. Loved it.

The main course lamb shark, prawn biryani and other chicken dish are good. Liked the saffron flavoured rice and well cooked lamb shank. The biryani is also good however it is different from
How Biryani cooked in India food. At the end we had Baclava dessert with persian Chai. I never had such authentic flavourful baclava. It has almost sprinkled on top and inside it is having cardamom flavour. Woow it was mouthful of flavour. Chai is also very tasty.
I would say, eggplant spread with bread as well Baclava dessert is must try at this place.“

As well, the personal touch and friendly vibe of the chef and team made my whole trip downtown feel worth it. I will build a trip to Mr. Shawarma into my downtown trips from now on!“

The food was amazing, and the family-style service allowed me to try a variety of excellent Palestinian cuisine. I cannot wait to bring my family and eat again at your restaurant. I HIGHLY recommend your food and restaurant.“

“The Place in UBC kyros kitchen is the most favorite place to eat Mediterranean food and Greek Food, The Restaurant Staff and specially the Owner were real good to deal with. They actually take so much care of choice and give perfect reccomendations which were actually so so good like Braised lamb, Lamb shank, Falafal Platter and then one Chicken shawarma wrap all were so so good.
There Drinks Mango lassi, Masala Chai and Lemonade are worth trying.
Most of all the food served is so so Fresh and Healthy.

Most recommended place to eat Best food around and inside UBC.“

“This five star rating is long overdue for all of your doner donair needs. After living in the area for over four years this place always delivers. With the option for a large portion for an additional price this place feeds the hungry .

“Really good waffles and really good lattes“

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

“I had the lamb Donair wrap. Outstanding. They put the correct amount of tzatziki sauce, lettuce, onion, and tomato on it. I’ve had Jeruss in Greece and Turkey. This place rivals the best. There is little seating outside And it could use a good cleaning“

“Picked up staff lunch today...generous portions! Delicious and fresh! Highly recommend this Granville Street eatery!“

“First time trying their food tonight! Great little spot. I was craving a koobideh rice platter (beef kababs) and this place is really close to home. They were really busy tonight but they were fast and efficient, considering the busy-ness. The kababs were so juicy and flavorful. Fresh veggies. Everything well seasoned. Handsome staff too.“

“I visited this restaurant recently and had a great experience. The food was delicious and well presented. The service was friendly and attentive, and we didn't have to wait long for our order. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxing, making it a nice place to enjoy a meal. Prices were reasonable for the quality. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and would be happy to come back again.“

“We ordered Best Falafel through Skip the Dishes and in addition to our order (which was delicious), they gave us a scarf to help protect us in times of COVID19. Such a sweet sentiment and a way to show support to those supporting you - thank you Best Falafel ♥️“

“Afghan Horseman never disappoints… my husband and I have been coming here for over 30 years and now it has become a favourite of our kids also. The food…delicious, the atmosphere… unique & cozy, the service… we are always treated like family and we were honoured to be included in their 50th Anniversary celebration this year. Tonight we enjoyed another fabulous dinner experience and we got to share it with our friend from Germany who loved it. Thank you to all our friends at Afghan, we look forward to dining with you in 2025!“

“This food, so fresh and delicious! I have never had Lebanese food before and was absolutely delighted at what I ate. My mouth and tummy are so happy! I have been visiting Vancouver for 6 nights now, and this is the freshest, most flavorful and beautiful food I have had. The service was absolutely lovely as well. Must eat here!“

“One of the best hidden gems in Delta! Don’t judge this place by its exterior—the food is incredibly fresh, clean, and full of flavor. The staff provided outstanding service and worked together like a well-oiled machine while remaining friendly and welcoming throughout my visit. The portion sizes are generous, the prices are very reasonable, and the overall experience exceeded my expectations. I would absolutely recommend this spot and will definitely be coming back. 100% worth trying!“

“Best shawarma and falafel on the westside!“

“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!“

“Best food in town“

“It's a small but generous place. The staff is very kind and generous. It's impossible for such people to serve you a bad meal. So, I recommend everyone who happens to be there to try it. And anyone who hasn't been there should definitely consider it. Stay well.“

“Don’t go to the other chains! This guy really cares and serves up the tastiest, most fresh, and highest quality donair. Make this the end of your night. Sooooo yummy!!!
Update: Don’t get the baklava. It was stale. Everything else good though!“

“I recently visited Donair Affairs in tsawwassen and it was outstanding. The chicken wrap was absolutely amazing, truly one of the best things I’ve eaten in bc. The staff were incredibly friendly, humble, and genuine, and the food was cooked to perfection. As someone from Calgary who came down for work, I can honestly say this is top-tier food. I’ll definitely be recommending DonairAffairs to all my friends in both Surrey and Calgary!”“

“We shared this dish and it was really tasty.“

“One of the best hidden gems in East Vancouver! The food was outstanding, with generous portions, fresh ingredients. The donair plates were loaded with perfectly cooked meat, rice, salad, and hummus, and everything tasted amazing.

The newly opened patio was a pleasant surprise, especially with the incredible beer specials—$4.99 pints and $15.99 pitchers. Great food, cold beer, friendly staff, and excellent value all in one place.

If you’re in the area, do yourself a favour and stop by Powell Donair & Kebab. You won’t leave hungry!“

“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.“

“The portion is 30% less than before. I have been ordering from this place for years, I understand with the inflation and everything that they have the price increase, and I'm OK with that, but I'm not OK with the portion size. I still do love the food is always consistent with flavor, but definitely not happy with a portion. The meat had very little amount in there, And I was gonna charge two dollars for extra hot sauce, which I'm OK paying, but the container was so tiny“

“Among all the halal restaurants in Vancouver , in my opinion,Saba Food is the best. 5 ⭐️“

“The warmest, kindest, people you will ever meet! The nice DJ played request songs we could dance to, the bison was amazing(!), the place was clean, drinks were tasty, and Veronica even made me a Birthday card, with complimentary cake and candle! Thanks to ALL for a fun time! :-))“

“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!“

“Really good Indian food — everything tasted fresh and flavorful. Portions were great too. Our boss from The Cycle City up the street bought lunch for the whole team, and everyone enjoyed it. Good vibes, friendly service, and solid food. Thanks for the good lunch, Josh and Indian Abroad! Definitely recommend 👍“

“I actually don't know how to rate this and have never rated on aroma before. I was waiting for the bus and if i had more time I would have gone in. The aroma was amazing and I don't eat beef or lamb. I looked back at least 6 times and when I have time I'll go back to try something.“

“Amazing food and even better service! I stopped by just before closing and only ordered a chicken plate. The owner was incredibly kind and surprised me with a free cucumber salad. Such a thoughtful gesture! Everything was fresh and delicious. I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!“

“I went there few days ago , was first time trying donair at this place. Young lady farah was super friendly and helpful. She helped me a lot I appreciate her patience and kindness. I would recommend this place for anyone who wants a perfect meal for the day.“

“I had an excellent experience at this restaurant. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, and ambience was warm and welcoming. What truly made the visit memorable was the outstanding service from Gurjeet Kaur. The staff
is very attentive, professional, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Their positive attitude and genuine care made us feel valued as guests. I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to coming back. Thx uh to the entire team, especially Gurjeet Kaur for such a wonderful dining experience.“

“A great late-night option for wraps and platters, my personal preference.

Chicken/Lamb/Beef platters are $18.49 each, and my portion was happily hefty when I picked it up in person versus ordering via DoorDash/Uber Eats. It comes with Greek salad, 2x domaldes, 2 potatoes, rice, and a heap of meat that gets covered in 2 sauces of your choice.

I also ordered a side tabbouleh that I wish was more dominant with parsley, but it’s still decent, and quite filling with the extra quinoa.

The location was super clean, and the customer service was sincerely warm and friendly. Not sure what’s with all the negative reviews, but in my opinion, if you enter with a smile, you’ll get served with smiles in return.

Thanks for feeding me!“

“Their portion sizes are amazing! This wrap is so huge and perfectly balanced with lots of meat and veggies. Not even joking it’s like 2lbs and it’s only a regular size not a large. The people that work there are the kindest too! Amazing flavours, so worth the price (which is 9.99$ before tax) for this MASSIVE thing.“

“Some of my friends had recommended Donair Dude for some excellent lunchtime meals.
I was very happy with my donair and pleasantly surprised with the excellent customer service at this donair establishment. As it was my first Donair here, the attendant was very helpful and patient.
It is also open late and close to so many performances. A great location for before a Roger's Arena or BC Place event.
They have a great chicken donair, or a beef donair, or a lamb donair, or... you get it, lots of selection! 😉
They also offer a discount for SOME students, so ask if they do.“
