“Review Title: Beautiful Atmosphere and Great Food, But a Bit Chilly

Review Text:
I had a lovely experience at this restaurant in Yalda night! The atmosphere is absolutely stunning—thoughtfully designed and perfect for a family gathering. The food was delicious, with each dish thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor.

The only downside was the temperature—it was a bit colder than I would have liked, which made it a little less comfortable. If they could adjust the heating, it would be perfect!

Overall, highly recommended for the ambiance and food.“

“Hands down the best chicken shawarma we’ve ever had! We ordered the chicken shawarma on rice and were blown away by how flavourful and smoky it was. The meat was juicy without being greasy, and the portion size was generous. The tzatziki sauce was also fantastic—super fresh and a perfect complement.“

“Excellent food. Great staff! Highly recommend!“

“I have been coming to this location regularly for about a year now and I have to say, no other shawarma spot compares to this one.. it’s always clean, the food isn’t greasy like other spots, and the staff is sooo friendly! Shoutout to Ash, and the others who work the midnight shift ☺️.“

“Great food, we have been customers for a long time, a few years now. And the food is always fresh and amazing. Our favorite dish is the Greek salad with roasted chicken breast.never disappointed.
Thank you for serving good food like that. They got Uber eats, so the ordering is super easy .“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great Tuesday Deal!

Tried the beef shawarma on their Tuesday special and it did not disappoint. The beef was juicy and well-seasoned, the portion was generous for the price, Definitely a solid spot for a quick and tasty meal. Highly recommend if you're nearby on a Tuesday!“

“Update: Been coming here for years even after i moved to another area! Tried shawarma all over including other countries and this is still #1 place for me!
----
Love their shawarma and hummus tastes awesome! I wanted to try their take-out the other day and bought 2 shawarma boxes for 3 people... we still had half left when we were done!“

“Thank You so much for an amazing evening November 09, 2024 at Old Avenue. The food is amazing, The Service is so attentive and quick. The Atmosphere is welcoming and you can feel the love and care from the owner the chef and the serving young people. Defiantly will go again and again to try more interesting things on the menu.“

“Very delicious food - have been a couple times.

I usually get the Chicken Shawarma meal and if you are not feeling for salad, you can always request extra potatoes.

The sauce can be a little spicy, so be mindful - but it is very delicious.“

“Unbelievable! You won’t be disappointed“

“Best Shawarma in all of Maple right beside Wonderland. They’re open until 3 o’clock in the morning for your late night cravings and they always give a very respectable portion. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a little bit of Middle Eastern twist in Vaughan.“

“We enjoyed the food the staff was amazing . The falafel and the Habibi bowl were delicious!“

“Very happy with the food and service. Good job guys keep up“

“Not only is this the best Pita land in Ontario in terms of quality, speed and accuracy, the service is top notch.
Our whole family comes here often and we are always welcomed with a smile and leave with one.

Potato bowl and poutine are always on our trays and the wraps are top notch.
The employees here are absolutely wonderful and make the experience alone worth coming back for.

Thank you team for your hard work!“

“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..“

“These two brothers know how to do it right. I'm always greeted with a smile and treated with kindness. I've been coming here for years! I love this place, the price is very affordable and this place is legendary for shawarma quality. 15/10 would reccomend, I stop here every single time I'm in Aurora! 🤤🤤🤤🤤 the sound of the meat shaver is like lullabies to my ear drums. Man I love this place! 🏆

“Nice! Nice! Nice! Thanks! 谢谢 cảm ơn to Ka Ba Ba and ABC badminton Club for booking this place for celebrate Christmas dinner at this place.“

“One the best Kebob and Chicken dishes I've ever had!“

“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“

“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.“

“Stopped in for a quick bite while on a short trip and was warmly welcomed by the owner, who was incredibly friendly and hospitable. He gave us extra food and complimentary drinks when he found out we were from out of town. The Baba Ganoush was authentic and fresh, and the kebabs were tender and packed with flavor. Recommended if you’re staying near the Highway 7 area.“

“It’s really delicious halal food. If you are a food lover, pls have a try. Hope you will enjoy.“

“Best falafels in town, the young lady who works here is phenomenal she makes the best sandwiches and she knows exactly how I like it. It’s so delicious when she makes it. Such a blessing. These guys are the best store owner and everyone is down to earth, very friendly and it’s a great environment . I’ve been coming here for quite while now and I can tell you that it’s like home style and really fresh. You won’t be disappointed. If I can give 10 stars I will. Trust me on this one.“

“Always an amazing experience! Food is high quality and very tasty. Service was exceptional. Orla served us today and was very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend for any occasion like date night, family get togethers or a night out with friends.“

“Great quality food. Delicious. You need to try Rumi's!“

“The falafel wrap from Pita Land is a delightful blend of fresh flavors and satisfying textures. The falafel is perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, paired with fresh veggies and a creamy sauce that ties everything together. The wrap is generously filled and makes for a hearty, delicious meal. Highly recommend for a quick, flavorful bite!"“

“Mr. Zagros Shawarma is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic, delicious shawarma. The meat is tender and flavorful, the pita fresh, and the sauces are the perfect complement. Quick service, friendly staff, and great value make this spot a standout. Every bite transports you straight to the heart of Middle Eastern cuisine. Don't miss out!“

“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?“

“I've been visiting this place every Sunday, it's turned into a ritual. My Sundays are incomplete if I don't visit BRO'S. My favorite shawarma place and the shawarma is top quality. Quick shout-out to Mohammad his service is really spot-on and pays attention to every detail. A quick suggestion to add in just a fries wrap to your menu cuz sometimes I don't feel like eating chicken and only wanna have fries! Thankyou“

“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!

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 ordered takeout from Nohadra Restaurant, and it was absolutely fantastic! The food was hot and fresh and the portions were very generous.

The chicken shawarma was perfectly seasoned. I also tried their beef kebab plate, which came with fluffy rice, fresh salad, and a deliciously smoky kebab.

Everything was packed carefully, and the order was ready on time. The staff at the counter were friendly and made sure I had everything I needed.

If you’re craving authentic Middle Eastern flavors and need a quick, satisfying meal, I highly recommend Nohadra for takeout. I’ll definitely be ordering again soon!”“

“We had a great time here! Food was excellent and flavouful. Prices were fair and portions were generous. Our server Christina was wonderful. Looking forward to returning (especially for more Lentil Soup and Pita!). Thank you!

Vegetarian options: Lentil soup was delicious!

Parking: Many spots available in the plaza.

Kid-friendliness: Was a family friendly atmosphere. Many items for kids to enjoy on the menu.“

“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“
