  • There is no shortage of shawarma places in Scarborough and the competition is stiff so when I saw a new place pop up 2 minutes from my house about a month ago I eyed it on a daily basis. I finally had a chance to go in and give it a shot the other day. I went in for a late pre-workout lunch; I ordered 1 chicken shawarma sandwich with everything but lettuce and garlic sauce. My sandwich was thrown in the pita haphazardly and warmed up in a panini press. The sandwich was a good size (see pics) and only ran me about $4.25 tax in (they have a deal of 2 sandwiches for $6.99). The sandwich was a decent representation of what a shawarma should be but it did not blow me away. What I did like was that the chicken had a nice crispiness to it, the vegetables were all fresh and crunchy and the key to the whole sandwich was the panini press which gave the pita a very light crispness that I enjoyed. I do have a few complaints though; the gentlemen preparing my sandwich was simply throwing in the toppings without much care or consideration, a good shawarma sandwich will have the right balance of each ingredient so as not to overwhelm the flavour of the meat, the carelessness with which my sandwich was prepared resulted in big bites of nothing but raw onion or cabbage on a couple of occasions. Another complaint is that my sandwich was drowned in tahini sauce, this really overwhelmed the flavour of the meat, and their tahini sauce was too lemony for my liking. Lastly their spicy sauce was rather weak and had no kick to it whatsoever. Overall my sandwich was serviceable and I would put their food on par with that of a villa medina but far from some of the better places in little Arabia along Lawrence Ave. The restaurant itself is located in a small strip mall that is somewhat sketchy; the place is bare bones but cleaner than I had anticipated. The menu consists of shawarma, falafel and hamburgers all of which are very reasonably priced, one can get a decent lunch here for $5 no problem. If you are in the area and looking for a cheap bite this place is not a bad option but they certainly do have some improving to do. All foods served here are halal. *2.5 stars for now ** Cash only
