Middle Eastern Restaurants near Whitby, ON

“Fair prices comfortable seating there's a decent washroom and the food is pretty good prices are fair there's free parking and also even if you eat there they don't even let you pay tip there's no option to do it they just tell you to tap and it's the price plus HST so the price is actually cheaper than other restaurants if you're eating inside .“

“Best salad and schwarma! Delicious! Great service!“

“As a Persian, I know good kebab — and The Kebab Shoppe in Pickering absolutely nailed it. The koobideh (sheath kebab) was juicy, flavorful, and authentic. The rice was fragrant and perfectly cooked. On top of that, the staff were genuinely polite, attentive, and welcoming. Highly recommend this hidden gem for anyone craving quality Persian cuisine!“

“Shelby Shawarma truly stands out for its delicious flavors and exceptional service! A special shoutout to Khushbu and Krisha for their dedication and warm hospitality. Their friendly demeanor and attention to detail make every visit a delightful experience. Keep up the fantastic work!

“Cyrus Persian Restaurant is a hidden gem tucked away in a modest house on Ritson Road, with almost no signage to guide you, which makes finding it a bit of a challenge, but totally worth the effort. We recently ordered takeout and tried their Chicken Shawarma Plate, Triple Koobideh Kabob, and Double Chicken Kabobs, and the experience was fantastic from start to finish.

The Koobideh Kabob was absolutely the standout dish, juicy, flavorful, and packed with spices that hit all the right notes. Each bite was tender and lip-smacking, easily the best koobideh we’ve had in a while. My kids couldn’t get enough of the chicken kabobs, which were perfectly cooked, tender, and mild enough for their tastes. My wife really enjoyed the chicken shawarma, flavorful with just the right balance of spices and garlic sauce.

While all the dishes were delicious, the koobideh stole the show for me, it was simply too good and had me wanting more. Considering its quality and the proximity to our home, Cyrus Persian Restaurant has quickly become a favorite for Persian takeout. If you’re willing to hunt down this little spot, you won’t be disappointed.“

“I have heard a lot of great feedback about this place so I had to check it out and I’m so happy I did. I had the mixed shawarma wrap (chicken and beef) combo with a side of falafel, and it was absolutely delicious and very filling. Without a doubt, it’s the best falafel and shawarma place I have ever been to. I’m looking forward to going back!!!“

“I went to pick up an Uber Eats order on Thursday at 11:25 PM. Even though the staff member working there was clearly busy with other tasks, he still took the time to help me place the order in my thermal bag. He was a very kind and respectful gentleman.

In times like these, it's rare to come across people who go above and beyond with such a positive attitude. Despite how busy the restaurant was, he had the order ready single-handedly while managing other responsibilities. His kindness and helpfulness truly stood out.

We need more people like him in today’s world. Thank you for your professionalism and warm gesture!“

“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“

“Best shawarma and best service ever! Seriously! Not only do they load the shawarma with as much food as you can fit into the pita, the owner is also so nice and friendly! And the garlic sauce, and garlic potato, there is no contest! We have tried other shawarma places, but this place is the best all around! If you are ever wondering where to go for shawarma, this place is it!
Consistently great every time!

“The girl serving food has no standard. I was coming from work, not dressed suit and tie. She served me half the meat which I normally get. Its true some nationalities judge people by their looks and change their standards.“
