Middle Eastern Restaurants in Scarborough, ON

“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.“

“They serve great food and amazing hospitality.“

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

“Great restaurant for chicken shawarma Sandwiches and platters.“

“Wanna get full for $10 and have a quick nutritious meal? This is the spot to be. It's not the most mind-blowing shawarma I've had (they don't claim to be anyway), it truly is some of the best bang-for-your-buck food in the area with well-balanced portions that hit the spot.

The guy working the counter gave rockstar service. There were quite a handful of people including myself, yet he was able to get all of our food out in a timely manner considering he was the only employee- all with a smile on his face. He was also kind enough to go out of his way and grab me water without me asking. It was such a small but thoughtful gesture and I appreciate it a ton.

The chicken shawarma rice plate was well seasoned & portioned, you get 3 veggie toppings and a variety of sauces to choose from. A medium has 4oz of meat for $9.99, or you can get a large for 6oz of meat at $12.99.

I like that they have actual toum and not just shawarma yogurt sauce (although I got that on my food as well and it was delicious). They also offer weekly deals which are pretty cheap imo considering how expensive food is nowadays.

If you're looking for parking I'd look for a curb on Dawes rd and just walk on over. The shop is super tiny and only has two stools for seating so it's best for takeout.“

“Great food and service! Would 100000% recommend😍“

“I’ve had nothing but great experiences here. The food is always fresh, flavourful, and consistent every time. the staff are friendly, welcoming, and the service is excellent. The place is clean, portions are generous, and prices are fair. It’s become one of my favourite spots, and I definitely recommend giving it a try. The only downside is that there is one older lady who works during the daytime. I’ve interacted with her several times, and unfortunately she has been consistently rude, impatient, and unfriendly. She really takes away from an otherwise great experience. I highly recommend visiting in the evening instead, where the staff have always been welcoming and professional.“

“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.“

“Best Shawarma ever! Emad is very welcoming & friendly. Have tried many other places, but no comparison. He is the best!!“

“I think it's safe by now to say that everyone has heard of the term that abs are made in the kitchen... I will add something to this by saying that it doesn't have to be in your kitchen at home or by eating bland and boring food! I had the opportunity today to pass by and visit my old friend Johnny at his shawarma restaurant on Kennedy Road not far off the 401... @johnnysshawarma is consistently ranked in the top handful of shawarma restaurants in the city and I can honestly say that I've never had better shawarma anywhere (not even when visiting Israel!)... And that says a lot considering with my middle eastern roots (my Dad was from Egypt) this is one of my favorite foods as it's delicious as it is nutritious especially when given the option to swap out the starchy carbs like the insanely good rice and potatoes with equally amazing salads and dips... Make sure to stop by and grab a bite if you are heading anywhere East of the DVP off the 401 and let them know Andre sent you 💪💪💪“

“Great food. Fresh & healthy. Excellent service. 10/10 would recommend“

“I had an amazing experience at this place! The shawarma was absolutely delicious — packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and super satisfying. What really stood out was the excellent customer service by Nisar. He was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was just right. Highly recommend if you're looking for great food and top-notch service“

“I love this restaurant. The food is always tasty and they serve you a great portion. The quality is consistent which makes my family and I returning customers, possibly every week lol.
Just to put things into perspective, I’m writing this review eating a shawarma wrap I ordered about 2 hours ago. It still tastes delicious and fresh as it would’ve when I first bought it.
The employees are always friendly and follow instructions carefully.
The atmosphere is so chill and quiet. Amazing Shawarma is the perfect place to grab a bite and catch up with a friend.“

“great staff,tasty food🤤🤤🤤“

“Best in town .We enjoyed hospitality and customer service of staff.Must visit.“

“Habiba is the kind of neighbourhood shawarma spot that feels like a warm invitation the moment you walk in. It’s a family-run place with a genuine, welcoming energy. the owners and staff treat every customer like a guest in their home, and that kindness shows up in everything from the way they take your order to the care they put into each plate. Slightly pricey, but worth the money. Go on a tuesday when they have their shwarma deal going on.“

“Thanks for the clean and delicious food. Fantastic شكرا علي الاكل النظيف واللذيذ .روعة“

“Great food and super friendly, Highly recommend“

“I love it so much it’s so good“

“Food portion and taste superb. Price excellent, a lot less than most places but the portion was well worth the money. Very friendly and accommodating, fast service. If you're looking for good food at a low price that's healthy, visit Shwarma Boss“

“The guy here is working alone, but even though he was busy, he was still very attentive and was able to help everybody and give their food right away at on time, literally, our favourite place to go ever since we moved out of Scarborough we’ve hardly gone to the spot, but I’m so glad that we were able to come today because it’s literally the best Shawarma!“

“fairly small store, but the food is SO insanely good that i have to rate it 5 stars. i could swim in that garlic sauce oh my gosh and their chicken shawarma is SO juicy and fresh and not dry at all im in love with this place and its really well priced tbh“

“We love the Shwarma , we enjoyed the food. even the line was long but Service was excellent.“

“The best doubles in the east end and the city!
3$ doubles can’t beat that price ,6polouri for 1$ mawdness ! Soooooo good ! I’ve heard the jerk chicken is good too ! I drove half way across Scarborough to come here when I crave doubled“

“Had a really good experience at Sumaq Iraqi Charcoal Grill in Scarborough. It’s a nice, casual spot with really generous portion sizes. I ordered the falafel plate with half rice and half fries, and it was honestly amazing.

The flavours were great, and I asked for it to be spicy, which they got exactly right. Everything was flavourful and satisfying. Definitely the kind of place where you leave feeling like you had a proper, full meal.

Parking was also convenient, although the place is usually pretty busy. Overall, a great spot for a hearty and flavourful meal. Would definitely go back! 🌶🍚🍟“

“The service at this location was incredibly fast and efficient. The food tasted great and was prepared perfectly. A huge shoutout to the employees, Manjot and Daroon, who were extremely polite and provided excellent customer service. The overall experience was amazing, and the staff made sure everything was handled well. I will definitely be coming back here again!“

“perfect food and yummy taste“

“This restaurant has the best dishes I have ever had. I am always impressed with the freshness and quality of food. They’re always generous with their portions and the service is excellent. I recommend the qabuli palaw with lamb shank, kofta ghorma, choinaki, dopiaza, kabob barbecue platter. I also recommend the sheer yakh, it’s top notch!“

“Excellent service and delicious food! The shawarma was fresh, flavorful, and made with quality ingredients. What really stood out was the kindness and understanding of the staff. I was a little short on money, and they were incredibly patient and accommodating instead of making me feel uncomfortable. That level of customer service is rare and truly appreciated. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and even better service.“

“Today, I purchased chicken shawerma from here, the lady who served us was absolutely friendly and cooperative. She made the shawerma delicious and perfect. I truly recommend this place. Guys if you wanna have real taste then visit this place. Thanks for making my day..“
