A Hidden Gem for Authentic Syrian Cuisine!
This place is an absolute delight! The food is nothing short of amazing – every dish was thoughtfully prepared, bursting with flavor, and cooked to perfection. The chef is incredibly talented and welcoming; we had such a great conversation that added a personal touch to the experience.
The ambiance is truly unique and charming, making it a perfect spot to enjoy delicious food. Their chai was phenomenal – rich, aromatic, and a perfect complement to the meal.
In my opinion, this is hands down one of the best street food spots in downtown.

I decided to go here because of the good reviews and I have to say it did not disappoint. The man working there was very nice and friendly. The falafel sandwich and the zataar both felt super fresh and were delicious. Definitely the best falafel sandwich I have had in the city.
Vegetarian options: There were plenty of tasty vegetarian options available.

I cannot put in words how fire the food was. We got kabob wrap, and Damascus quesadilla. Quality of the food is beyond excellent.
Will recommend to everyone in Toronto, most probably the best shawarma spot in DT

Hands down the best shawarma wrap in downtown Toronto. Been to Pita Lite, Pita & Hummus, Alpha's, Salad House, Flaming Stove, but nothing compares to this.

Based on the ratings, I dined at Chef Harwash in early - mid September and was very pleased with this venue on the Street. The patron was friendly and treated this American well. The entree was delicious and his friendliness will remain in my memory.
I've come here for years now, and their food is always so wonderful. Full of perfectly balanced flavours and you can taste the home they've brought with them in each bite. They're the ones that made me fall in love with falafels! Before Chef Harwash, I actually didn't like falafels...but they showed me a whole new world with how theirs taste.
Also love their wraps with pomegranate molasses. It brings a type of depth that I felt was always missing for me elsewhere.
Their drinks are also so, so cozy and tasty. Try the karak chai–and if you're lucky enough that they have it that day, their sahlab is the most wonderful drink I've ever had. Tastes like a warm hug. If they don't have it as a hot drink, I think they have it as ice cream on their menu right now which is super unique and tasty experience too.
Also the most amazing and kind pair of brothers I've had the pleasure of meeting. They touch people's lives and have deep lives of their own. I wish them success in all their endeavours, and am so lucky to be able to experience them and their food here.
"Chef Harwash is an absolute gem in Toronto for authentic Syrian cuisine. The flavors are rich, the ingredients are fresh, and every dish feels like it’s made with care and tradition. The Toshka, with its perfect blend of kebabs and cheese, is a standout, and the falafel is some of the best I’ve ever had—crispy on the outside, perfectly seasoned inside. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service is top-notch. Whether you're trying Syrian food for the first time or you’re a long-time fan, this place is a must-visit!"

The food was the star of the show. I ordered shawarma, and it was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked, well-seasoned, and presented beautifully. The flavours were rich and balanced, and it was evident that fresh, high-quality ingredients were used.

That was the best chicken shawarma we've ever had. The owner is really nice, and he gives you such huge portions too! Also definitely try the homemade iced tea as well <3
