The beef shawarma plate tasted so so. And the bottle of the yogurt drink, it’s salty. It was my first time buying and drinking it because it seemed very delicious. If it’s sweet, it must be delicious. It’s my first time drinking salty drink in my life. It’s so salty that I had to take it home to use it as salt to make dishes.

Had to make an order for close to 30 people and the food, price and customer service was exceptional. They helped us with any issue we may have had. The order was made in advance and they had it prepared on time and it was hot when we arrived. The food itself was amazing and especially since it was a mass order it was exceptional. It met all dietary restrictions and had everyone satisfied with lots of leftovers. I would recommend Family Shawarma and if I lived closer it would become my favourite shawarma spot.

Seriously, this is the BEST SHAWARMA in Toronto. I’ve had it all. This one beats all. The beef and chicken are cooked beautifully, charred on the outside, succulent inside. My favourite part is that they have a jalapeño chilli paste that you can take as a topping - no worries it’s not that spicy but the flavour is out of this world. My usual is a chicken and beef mix, with lettuce, onion and the chilli paste (with garlic mayo, tahini and a tiny bit of hot sauce to add that zing). Seriously, the best I’ve had in Canada.

I have tried several kinds of dishes from this place . I personally prefer their Shawarmas over their other dishes , Their Tahini and Hot sauce is tasty and the salad is always fine ( only once it was not fresh ) . Overall you can have a good Shawarma for a good price !

We discovered this place in our neighborhood last night. Got 4 wraps and loved it. So we went back today to get their family special. Amazing portions and very tasty! We just became regular customers :)

Never knew about this place until recently... located in corner near Value Village. They serve a very decent chicken shawarma. Good value, because bread doesn't break and they don't skimp on meat and toppings. Also good friendly attitude by the 2 gentleman. The "any 2 sandwiches for 7.95 special" is not as good as the special at Tasty Shawarma on Sheppard, however, they also have a "3 for 11.95" which is cool. Decent sized small area inside to sit and eat. Lots of parking available. No wheelchair entrance.
