“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.“

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

“I've been coming here for nearly 4 straight years. I'll get OhShawarma! Atleast once a week.

I always order the same thing. Chicken Plate, no potato extra salad. It's always delicious as the first time I tried it.

Easily my favorite Shawarma spot in the Durham Region.“

“I highly recommend Pita delites, I recently had the pleasure to experience a meal I soon won't forget, from start to finish with ever bite was a new experience. The meal was exceptional.

“I had an exceptional experience at this establishment, thanks to an outstanding employee named Meet. He was incredibly kind, welcoming, and made the visit even more enjoyable with a friendly chat. He truly deserves recognition, if not a raise!

Additionally, the food was fresh, served exactly as I requested, and came with all the necessary cutlery, napkins, and even ketchup packets. The service was impressively fast, making the meal even more satisfying.

Overall, it was a fantastic experience. I highly recommend this place, whether you're dining alone, with friends, or with family.“

“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“

I always come for the chicken shawarma, I’d like to try something different but I’m afraid I’ll be addicted to this place even more lmao. Love this place & its customer service.“

“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.“
