“I've been coming here for nearly 4 straight years. I'll get OhShawarma! Atleast once a week.

I always order the same thing. Chicken Plate, no potato extra salad. It's always delicious as the first time I tried it.

Easily my favorite Shawarma spot in the Durham Region.“

“Today was our second time trying out this location of Tahini’s, and it was truly amazing. (the first was the day they opened, it was super crowded!).

The food, as always, was exceptional. The service was great, quick and thorough of course. The owner himself came to serve us our order and made sure we were well taken care of, even gave us complimentary appetizers and drinks while we waited for our order, that was so sweet!

We would highly recommend this Tahini’s. It’s definitely our new favourite location. Great job, you guys!“

“Best shawarma in Oshawa, maybe perhaps best ever? The answer is probably.“

“I stumbled upon this hidden gem and was instantly drawn in by their vegan-friendly options, like the lentil soup and a beautifully crafted traditional falafel plate. I decided to dine in and was absolutely charmed by the serene ambiance—quiet, spotless, and refreshingly free of TVs or blaring music. It’s the perfect spot to unwind and truly savor your meal. The lentil soup was hearty and flavorful, warming me from the inside out—exactly what I needed on a chilly day. This is a rare find for anyone craving a peaceful dining experience paired with wholesome, delicious food. I’ll definitely be back! 😊

“Barg Wrap (Steak)
Shawarma Plate

We stopped in today and ordered take out for lunch, after a friend had recommended this place to us.

We spoke with the hostess and she was an absolute sweetheart. We did not know they have been around since 2008! However, there is new ownership this last year. I must say there's a reason people are recommending the food.

There is free parking in behind the restaurant. The interior is cozy and has tables for dining in.

We opted for a wrap and a plate; splitting both. The plate was loaded with rice, garlic sauce, hummus and lots of chicken shawarma. Topped with another sauce, this was the perfect combo. The meat was juicy and flavorful. There were multiple dressings to choose from for the salad.

The Barg wrap was a steak wrap and my hubby commented on how tender the meat was. The wrap was an ok size and was a nice mix of veggies.

All in all we had a solid experience and will definitely be back to try more of their menu.“

“I had an exceptional experience at this establishment, thanks to an outstanding employee named Meet. He was incredibly kind, welcoming, and made the visit even more enjoyable with a friendly chat. He truly deserves recognition, if not a raise!

Additionally, the food was fresh, served exactly as I requested, and came with all the necessary cutlery, napkins, and even ketchup packets. The service was impressively fast, making the meal even more satisfying.

Overall, it was a fantastic experience. I highly recommend this place, whether you're dining alone, with friends, or with family.“
