So far the tastiest shawarma in the ‘hood! It’s a hole in the wall - my favourite kind of place. Plenty of room for seating in the back. I always get it to go. I recommend the chicken wrap, spicy, with everything. Half is plenty, so it’s two meals for me. ❤️

I recently visited Alpha Shawarma, and it was an outstanding experience! The Mediterranean flavors were absolutely on point, making it one of the best places to satisfy a shawarma craving. The chicken shawarma was perfectly seasoned, tender, and juicy, with just the right amount of spice and garlic. The pita bread was fresh and soft, complementing the shawarma beautifully. I also tried the chicken shawarma plate, which was equally impressive. It came with a generous portion of flavorful chicken, paired with a side of rice, hummus, and a crisp salad. Everything was well-seasoned, fresh, and balanced, giving me a real taste of Mediterranean cuisine at its best. The ambiance was casual and welcoming, with friendly staff providing excellent service. If you're in the mood for authentic, high-quality Mediterranean food, Alpha Shawarma is a must-visit! Highly recommend it for both the shawarma lovers and anyone looking to enjoy a hearty, flavorful meal.

Alpha Shawarma’s chicken shawarma plate is an excellent option for a satisfying takeout meal. The portion is generous, offering plenty of food for the price, making it great for either a single meal or sharing. The chicken itself is well-marinated, flavorful, and juicy, with a nice blend of Middle Eastern spices that make each bite truly enjoyable. It’s tender without being overly greasy, striking a good balance in texture. The sides provided with the plate are a nice addition – typically including fresh salads, hummus, and rice. The hummus is creamy, smooth, and pairs well with the meat, while the rice is well-cooked and slightly aromatic. One of the standouts is the garlic sauce; it’s creamy and has just the right amount of kick, complementing the shawarma perfectly without overpowering it. Packaging for takeout is practical, keeping everything in place and warm until you get home. Overall, Alpha Shawarma’s chicken shawarma plate delivers on taste and value, making it a solid choice for a satisfying Middle Eastern meal on the go. If you’re craving flavorful, well-prepared chicken shawarma with classic sides, this spot is definitely worth trying.

Probably the most hyped shawarma place in Toronto. There’s always a lineup but they move fast. So this partly means you can’t really tailor the wrap to your liking, which for me is a big deal. Make sure you order and pay first, then wait for the food to get ready. In my opinion; the wrap is over hyped. Don’t get me wrong, this is a great shawarma but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it. The good part: the Saj wrap is super crisp. Bad part: meat has little to no flavour, the wrap is too thin and the hummus and garlic overpower anything else. The hot sauce has flavour but isn’t spicy at all. Personally, I prefer the old school shawarma pitas loaded with meat and veggies (like the spot 2 doors over) On the plus side, the shawarma on rice was much better. The rice was super flavorful.

Definitely one of my favorite shawarmas in the city of Toronto they have opened a little over a year ago and they have definitely secured their spot on top shawarma pace for a very good reason food is fresh , pack a flavor , super clean to eat , location is great their service is amazing . All in all definitely one of my favorite spots now in Toronto to go eat shawarma . I order falafel plate that came with 5 big size falafel with the most flavorful rice I have ever had at any shawarma joint that rice by it self reminded me of a Indian dish called” Briyani “ super fragrant and each piece of rice is richly coated with flavors super tender soft , salad is amazing fresh , sauces they all in house as u don’t just taste sodium in sauce their is actually flavorful and dont make ur belly feel wired after like some those franchise food joints . Hummus and garlic taste like heaven super creamy and if u lucky while u wait for ur food they cut fresh pieces of meat dip it in garlic and have people try that fresh cut meat from the rotisserie . It’s amazing and definitely experience that can’t be bought . Would totally recommend this place to any food lover and for anybody in city looking for a quick bite on the go service is super fast even when busy . Extremely organized the whole team kudos to the family running this joint with such passion hardworking and dedication . Love for food is what keep us united thank u for being those flavors of ur country to Canada 🇨🇦 .
