I just went there to checkout the place as got recommended by many people but its devastating. I was just standing on the counter checking out the toppings and menu and saw rotten toppings right at the front. If you wish a good health please don’t eat from here.

Have been here many times throughout the years. Solid shawarma spot, very fairly priced. At times, the meat can be a bit dry but overall tasty. Food is very consistent and served quickly. A local Scarborough staple. Worth a visit if you’re in the area!

Place is really clean, I go to a lot of Restaurants because my trade and the first thing I pay attention is how clean it is in the kitchen area because I have the chance to be on that side and this place is pretty good. The staff also really friendly, and food amazing. For sure I will be coming back and recommend this place to my friends and family.

Never had a Shawarma before. Best place to have your first shawarma. OMG, this was the G.O.A.T tasting beef anything I have had in a long time. You will not be disappointed. As for Service? For a small place, they were above and beyond the level of service one would expect from The Keg. Friendly, accommodative, and very helpful in suggesting options. They even offered us complimentary coffee and tea when they didn't have to. I loved that. A great assest to Scarborough. Keep up with great service and tasty food. All the best. Collect points at every visit for a free shawarma. As Johnny says, "what's better than a shawarma? A free Shawarma." 😀

Johnny's Shawarma is a standout destination for anyone craving exceptional shawarma. This spot truly excels with its vibrant, flavorful offerings, making it one of the best in the city. The shawarma here is a masterclass in balance, featuring perfectly spiced, tender meat wrapped in warm, fluffy pita. Each bite is a delightful blend of juicy, marinated meat and fresh, crisp vegetables, complemented by a selection of house-made sauces that add depth and richness. What sets Johnny's apart is the attention to detail in every component, from the well-seasoned, succulent meat to the tangy, smooth garlic sauce. The result is a shawarma experience that's consistently satisfying and impressive. For anyone serious about their shawarma, Johnny's is a must-visit.

I ordered Mixed Shawerma plate it tastes so good. Zaater Mankousha is freshly baked and it's delicious. Garlic paste is 10/10, Also what I really liked how clean they packed my order with care. Recommended 👍

Great spot for Shawarma and since it is run by a Lebanese family, the flavours were truly authentic. The highlights were the service, the garlic sauces, especially the spicy garlic, and the generosity with the toppings. The only opportunity for improvement is the chicken. The chicken could have been reheated on the pan/skillet to give it the extra crispy texture. Otherwise brilliant spot for shawarma! Well done team Johnny’s Shawarma. Keep up the great service and food.
