If you get me to do a 5-star review, you got something special in my books.
This place isn't fancy, have super hot gals in tight mini skirts serving you the latest cocktails, or have super duper interior design with exotic animal skin seats...all of those which would add up to a really weird place.
If you can provide me with great food, and an excellent experience - you got me at 5...stars.
The place is recessed from Hwy7 in a strip mall next to national sports near Keele. The recent roadway constructions made it difficult to to get to it from the eastbound traffic side. It's unassuming red and white sign and simple pictures of food on the windows doesn't say much to draw you in but you should go.
I walked in and a gentleman was cutting some shawarma as I stepped to the counter. A warm hello and an offer to have some of their own seasoned meats. I knew what I wanted but he promptly came around with a sizeable sample of his goods. And it was Good!
I asked for a shawarma on a pita and it took him no time to cut a healthy portion of meats onto the open pita. He wanted to know how I wanted it and I asked him to dress it as he would have wanted to have one. He proceeded to layer on goodness after goodness. He also put on all their homemade dressing. After he rolled it up, he told me to open by tearing around the top portion of the double wrap and work my way down.
I was on the way to a client office nearby and I was hungry. I lifted the wrap out of the bag and it was heavy! I unwrapped a portion of the top and it was going to explode and make a mess. I had decided to wait before enjoying it.
When I finally got to eating. I told myself this is way to big for one sitting...uhm...no...it was too good to put down.
The best Shawarma Wrap ever! Well so far!
Great food, great people - totally deserving on my 5 and their current 5 start Yelp rating!
Be prepared for a food coma after. I didn't even make it to my last meeting. :)
