Middle Eastern Restaurants near Pickering, ON

“I have been a loyal customer of The Kabab Shoppe across GTA locations, and it remains one of my absolute favorite spots to dine.

The Tandoori Chicken Bowl paired with rice, fries, or salad is ridiculously delicious—easily some of the best food around. Having eaten here countless times, I can always count on top-notch quality and fresh ingredients, and the restaurant consistently maintains an exceptionally clean and hygienic environment, which gives me complete peace of mind whenever I order.

If you are looking for dishes to try, the Butter Chicken, Shish Kababs, and Samosas are all incredible and well worth ordering. On top of the food quality, having late-night hours until 3 AM makes it an unbelievably convenient go-to spot. Highly recommended!“

“I had an awesome experience at Tahini’s! The shawarma was fresh and flavorful, but what really made the visit memorable were the amazing servers, Suman and Daman. They were super friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. It felt like chatting with old friends! If you’re looking for great food and even better service, these two will make your day“

“Great food and super friendly, Highly recommend“

“Good spot for lunch, online ordering is fast and ready when we arrive. Consider giving an option for online ordering to put dining in so we don't have to waste the take away bag that the food is packaged in. Would be nice if extra veggies didn't cost 99cents“

“My visit to Crown Pita was made exceptional because of Abdul. While the food was absolutely delicious, it was Abdul’s hospitality and dedication to customer service that truly stood out and made the experience memorable.

From the moment I walked in, Abdul greeted me warmly and made me feel welcome. He took the time to ensure that my order was prepared perfectly and checked that everything met the restaurant’s quality standards. It’s rare to find someone who genuinely cares about a customer’s experience, but Abdul clearly takes pride in what he does.

I ordered the chicken shawarma with rice and salad, along with a pita shawarma wrap and falafel wrap. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The salad was especially impressive, packed with fresh ingredients and a great variety of vegetables. However, what made the meal even better was Abdul’s attention to detail and commitment to making sure customers leave satisfied.

His positive attitude, professionalism, and genuine kindness create a welcoming atmosphere that keeps people coming back. Employees like Abdul are a huge asset to any restaurant because they make customers feel valued and appreciated.

Because of Abdul’s outstanding hospitality and excellent service, I will gladly return to Crown Pita again and again. Thank you, Abdul, for making this visit such a great experience!“

“A clean restaurant, very tasty food, and very respectful to customers“

“This place has excellent quality food and friendly service. I ordered the chicken breast kebab dinner. The chicken is perfectly seasoned, juicy and tasty! The naan bread is soft and fluffy. In fact, I can eat it by itself. The Greek salad is so fresh and I love the dressing. I like their Greek salad better than those at Greek restaurants. Overall, I am just happy to have a quality restaurant near my home where I can go to get quality food anytime.“

“the kunafa was the most delicious dessert ever! Highly recommend and can't wait to go back!“

“This place was unexpectedly good. Me and my family just passed by for a quick bite from a long drive and this was in the same plaza as a TD bank. We had the chicken shawarma plate and it was tasty and fresh. The ladies behind the counter were also courteous and accomodating as they explained the promotions they had running so we got a great deal. I may not be able to come back as I live quite a ways away but I highly recommend this place.“

“Great taste of Middle East , authentic and fresh.“

“This Pita Land location is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is amazing, the food is even better, and the service is truly second to none. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and made with care, and the staff were friendly, welcoming, and attentive from start to finish. You can really tell they take pride in what they do. Definitely one of those places you leave already planning your next visit. 10/10 — highly recommend the Ajax Pita Land location!“

“Great food and super friendly, Highly recommend“

“Came in close to closing time and they made me feel SO welcome — honestly deserves way more than 3.9 stars.
Walked in near closing, grills already being cleaned, and the guy still greeted me with a smile. Order came out fast and everything was incredibly fresh — I’m talking an hour later and it was still hitting hard.
The portions are generous, the sauces and fillings are more than enough, and the deals are real deals. I only got one and immediately regretted after having it not grabbing two — trust me, get the deal for 2, you WILL want that second one once you finish the first.
They even threw in a free can of drink just because they were happy I stopped by at closing. That kind of energy is rare. This place deserves all the love — don’t sleep on it!“

“Good food 🥘 and I would come back with family again.“

“Absolutely loved the food at Tahini Mediterranean Fusion!
The flavors were fresh, authentic, and full of life. From the perfectly grilled meats to the creamy hummus and warm, fluffy pita – every bite was a treat. The service was friendly and welcoming, and the ambiance made it a relaxing spot to enjoy a great meal. Highly recommend if you’re craving delicious Mediterranean with a modern twist!“
