| - The first thing to note is the Eglinton Pita and Grill is NOT the same franchise as the pita and grill by Dundas/Confederation. This one's way better.
I had their chicken shawarma (2 for under $15 is a really good price considering the average price for a shawarma is $10).
Their shawarmas are, BY FAR, one of the most authentic, not to mention filling, shawarmas around. Their pack their pitas to the brim with chicken. A single bite from their shawarma will get you a mouthful of crispy seasoned chicken, savoury garlic sauce, a hit of fresh veggies, and a subtle kick of spice from the jalapeƱos and hot sauce. They don't use lettuce, they use tabouli (which is how it should be). The pitas are grilled and keep their structure (they don't fall apart) and the aftertaste is a unique garlicky-chicken taste. No place has come close to the flavour profile of the Eglinton Pita and grill.
This place is definitely one worth checking out. For $15 for 2 shawarmas, they definitely don't short-change you here. You'll be full after one.
Im no shawarma connoisseur, but this place, by far, has the middle eastern shawarma experience down to a tee. Definitely worth the drive.
