“I lived in UAE, couple of years and the shawarma was the best I believed.
When I moved to Canada I never had a same taste of Shawarma. But the taste was from Fantastic was awesome. They have variety of sauces and filling. More over direct cutting from oven ... that makes different from other shawarma shops..“

“This place is similar to the concept of a combination of a coffeehouse, tavern, and dining hall in Turkey. It’s like a blend of three different places, something I haven't even seen in Turkey. I liked it; the prices are reasonable. There are about thirty people inside, but no women at all.“

“The best services and most polite and friendly staff with a very good quality of food and products“

“I first came to this place more than 15 years ago and it was amazing..a hidden gem.., then it changed owners and they tried to make it more "upscale" but it was just more expensive and quality of the food dropped..it was still "ok" for a change once in a while.. . I have not visited Belle for years now as I moved out of Toronto and then the pandemic and yesterday while in Toronto we decided to order take out .....very very disappointed The prices don't match the quality of the food and when we picked up we just saw a bunch of teens playing videogames not really customer oriented. We had to wait longer for the order and the food was cold. The Lula kebab was burnt, the home fries (that was the signature master piece) were dried up, the chicken was tasteless... Poor quality, poor customer service and expensive. Will not come back or recommend again“

“Haven’t been in a while, but every time I’ve gone I’ve received the best in hospitality and great quality food. The atmosphere is just amazing and feels authentic. I just thought I’d give a shoutout since some people are so low and petty they’d morally attack a restaurant chain over some Twitter comments. Don’t listen to these losers that have nothing better to do with their lives.“

““I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! Mina, one of the staff members, was very kind and welcoming. She recommended the kunafa with vanilla tea, and it was absolutely delicious. The combination was perfect, and her friendly attitude made the visit even more enjoyable. I highly recommend trying this place!“

“Amazing tasty value for money Shawarma.. Will highly recommend them..

Came again and tried the Mix plate Shawarma.. Amazing stuff and very good portions.. DENIZ was very Helpful very friendly and gave us an excellent customer experience.. Well done.. Thank u“

“I come here for a second time around. The food, Ambiance and staff are superb, this is highly recommended. Especially SACO our Server, he is so Funny and very approachable, always takes good care of his Table to make sure everything was fine.“

“This is an incredibly clean and DELICIOUS place to eat! The staff are amazing and friendly; they go above and beyond to satisfy your tastebuds and hunger !! Sooo impressed !! YUM!!!!!“

“Your food is the best, and very delicious, nobody make the liver like you,.the cream chap and beef tikka are perfect.. Actually all your food are so good, you are so friendly and you know what you are doing.. Just one point,. Why does your name not with the Uber eat?“

“Delicious food, great price, generous portion!“

“An interesting, varied menu that will delight your taste buds. Since the opening, we have enjoyed our meals. The service was good. Thank you. It was too bad this time that we had two loud young ladies close by that made it not as pleasant for half the meal. We were glad when they departed.“

“The food and service here are great! I always enjoy whenever I buy from this Ali Baba’s. The workers here are always respectful and polite. For anyone who is looking for a shawarma place to eat at, I would definitely recommend this location.“

“Perfect place and people, fast service with amazing food. This place is family owned by hard working Georgians with authentic food that has been made the same way for over 13years, I would highly recommend this place to anybody lucky enough to find it.“

“I come to York Shawarma during my lunch break sometimes and always receive great customer service and great food. They are very generous with their portions in both the plates and the sandwiches. For these reasons I keep coming back to this place on my lunch breaks and I hope it doesn’t change!

Vegetarian options: The typical options plus cabbage and red cabbage. In other stores I usually don’t see those two options so glad they have them.

Parking: Not a huge lot but can fit at least 12 cars.

Kid-friendliness: I don’t see a reason for it not to be kid-friendly but its location is within an industrial zone.

Wheelchair accessibility: It’s accessible as long as the chair fits throughout the door. It’s a normal size door.“

“I got take out last night, rushing to eat before work (salad and chicken shawarma sandwich). It tasted odd... shortly after,, I called the location to tell them, something was off with the ingredients. I wasn't sure of it was the onions, turnips etc. something was left out too long perhaps... and today I am sick as a dog. I've eaten here before. I think they need better quality control on the food... especially being safely stored.. perhaps temperatures..etc“

“What an incredible place to get a delicious Chicken Shawarma Wrap… The location @ Dongate Plaza - 751 Don Mills Rd is definitely the best..!!! The staff and food is unbeatable… i’ll be always getting my Chicken Shawarma Wrap from this location…“

“Asgar and team provide excellent food at a great value. The chicken dishes are made with the perfect amount of spices. The quantity of food is enough to feed two people per plate. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys great tasting food and great service“

“I went to Anoush on Rimrock last week, I mentioned it was my birthday and they gave me a free Lentil Soup. The wraps are chockful of veggies and the chicken...they make a great Shwarma!

You will get fast service, great food and at a reasonable price for sure!“

“Love this place. I come by at least once or twice for lunch during the week. I really enjoy the poutine and think the portion size is perfect. Not sure if there's different staff on the weekend, but shoutout to the two girls working there during the week - they're both so friendly and have excellent customer service skills“

“Excellent food and service! Perfect for large groups“

“I’ve had many Turkish dishes and this is by far one of the best. The owner is really respectful, nice, and professional, you don’t feel like you’re being rushed. He is understanding if you don’t know what you want, and will give you suggestions. The atmosphere feels very safe and welcoming. I would absolutely recommend coming here. 10/10 and will be trying again👍🏾😊“

“Glad that we have an ali baba's in the area, the restaurant itself is very clean and well maintained and food is flavourful and fresh. My favourites are the chicken shawarma wrap and the falafel wrap, the have daily deals that are a great price!The staff are friendly and courteous, but when they get very busy and there is a line, the service and attention to hygiene get looked over. Multiple times that I have been there and it has been busy I noticed that they didn't take their gloves off when touching the checkout machine and money and resumed to serve others with the same gloves on.Also, when busy, they rush to get everyone's orders put together and ingredients that I said I didn't want were put into my wrap. I'd rather wait a little longer and get the right ingredients.I will definitely give them another chance and hopefully by then this issue is corrected!“

“We come here a few times, but the quality was going downhill. Reluctantly, we decided to give Orly Grill one more chance. WOW, what a difference! The quality of the ingredients and the size of the portions were a huge surprise! The price was higher, but now it’s definitely worth the price! New owners, perhaps (?) because the difference is huge.
Highly recommended!!“

“Our meal was excellent. Fresh ingredients, well cooked meats, we will be back for sure“

“Delicious food, excellent service, and a cozy atmosphere—highly recommend“

“I discovered Red and White when they first opened almost 20 years ago. Smart phones and google reviews werent even a thing lol. I lived in an apartment just down the street.. single guy so it was a quick fix for a great price.. feels like it was a different life lol.

The shawarma here, was hands down the best I've had in Toronto.. I think it was my first shawarma too.. this is the kind of meal you want and could eat daily. There was no getting tired of it, it was that good.

Since then, I've moved, had kids, started my own business.. i've had LOT'S of shawarma from all different restaurants from all nationalities hoping, praying even to find another shawarma that was close and ive had some almost as good, but I've yet to find a place that can put together such a delicious shawarma as you get here.

A lot has changed in almost two decades since I came across this place.. and as luck would have it, I was in the area the area this afternoon. imagine the excitement when I saw Red and White still there! It had changed owners though.. naturally I asked myself "will it be the same?" I rolled the dice, ordered a wrap with everything on it like i always did, and AMEN! I was a 20 year old again.. the nostalgia.. it brought back some great memories with just one bite.. if youre wondering.. YES it was just as good as the first time.. I just finished mine and I'm ready for another.. I don't know what they put in it, but it's DAMN DELICIOUS! If you're in the area, treat yourself. Great price for a big wrap, but all the plates are generous servings.

Disclaimer: you won't be able to enjoy a shawarma anywhere else after this. So be ready for that..

A way i like to describe dishes with this kind of flavour is to say "itll make your mouth orgasm" lol.. yeah. It's that good. Don't take my word for it. The worst that'll happen is you'll be disappointed.. that you didnt try this sooner or that Red and White isn't closer to your home.. I know I am ?‍?

You'll remember this review and thank me.. you'll thank yourself too for trying it, I'll bet on it.

Enjoy!! Thank you Red & White for staying delicious.. until next time ???“

“Shawarma Istanbul, OMG a great place in a strip plaza on Jane St and Wilson Ave. Returning customers. Fantastic service each time. Very delicious food options and the condiment choices are always fresh. Drop by if you are in the area. Great for last minute lunch and dinner, after sport events or returning from a vacation. 👏🏻👌“
