I love this place. Quick service, friendly staff, fresh toppings and really tasty shawarma. They’re also with Skip The Dishes should you want delivery and can’t pop by for pick up!!!
Although I don't eat Afghan or Middle Eastern cuisine regularly, I do enjoy it. With three vertical rotisseries, the house specialty seems to be chicken shawarma. It looked good, but I had a craving for beef so I ordered the Beef Kebab, served with with rice, salad, and a choice of naan or a drink.
The beef kebabs are made to order so it took a few minutes. At least I knew it was fresh! The included salad is also assembled as ordered, with your choice of ingredients.The seasoned rice was also freshly made. The entire plate was dressed with a variety of seasonings and sauces. Finally, the meat was placed on top and also dressed with sauces. Nice!
Everything was delicious and I could see that it was obviously freshly made to order. The meat was well seasoned, tender, juicy, and flavourful, especially with the sauces on it. I even enjoyed the salad, where every component of it seemed fresh. This was a very good, flavourful meal.
Beyond the good tasting food, the two fellows behind the counter were friendly and engaging. I think I'll have to come here more often!
Ordered the Shawarma platter and it was quite delicious, everything tasted fresh and the chicken was perfectly prepared with crunchy and moist pieces. I recommend giving it a shot anytime you are near for some tasty filling food.
A real hidden gem. Fantastic kebabs/shawarma plates. The rice is beautifully spiced with cardamom and is some of the tastiest I've had. If you like Middle Eastern food, check it out once and you'll be going back again
