  • I don't know but when we lived nearby (about a few years ago), my husband used to go in there once in a while and get us beef shawarma sandwiches. They weren't the greatest since the meat didn't seem like it was cooked on the spit; however, it wasn't the worst either because it did have a lot of garlicky flavour, it was real meat and tender and the toppings were always fresh. OK so fast forward to present day. I had the worst craving for a beef shawarma but there was no way I was going to drive out to either Tarboosh in Mississauga (best ever) or Armenian Kitchen in Scarborough (second best ever) and I've just dismissed Ali Baba. Then I remembered this place so I figured I can't really go that wrong. When I walked in, I saw a huge spit of chicken shawarma. I would have ordered that but it looked like it was a lot of dark meat and I'm not really a fan. I asked the gentleman if he had beef, which I just assumed he'd say that he ran out since there was an empty spit. To my surprise, he said he had some. I figured maybe it was all shaved and ready to go so I ordered it. Then I see him slicing something off the spit and it looked like raw gyros (the colour of Spam) but then he put it on the grill. I so wanted to run for my life but he was really nice and I had already committed to the order - luckily it was only $5.00+. When I got back to work, I was reluctant to eat it but I took a few bites and it was nasty. Although I don't like gyros and doner, I've had it many years ago but this had a way more mushy texture - I kind of felt like I was eating grilled Alpo. It was very greasy to the point where my fingers were getting oily just from holding the pita. I'm not sure if the hot sauce was oily or if it was from the Spam. They must have changed ownership because that was NOT anywhere close to what we used to order a few years back. It wasn't cool how he serves a gyros/doner thing and tries to pan it off as beef shawarma. Anyway, 1/5 but I'll post it as two stars since (a) the gentleman was nice and (b) I can see people liking the chicken shawarma. Plus, I saw some samosas there and they looked pretty good - should have just got a couple of those ...
