A little "modest" looking from the outside, but don't let that discourage you. This is a top-rate little restaurant. Prices were fantastic, for $5.99 I got one of the best wraps I've had all year. Pictured here is the "Tandoori Chicken Wrap". Fantastic. A nice blend of East Indian and Mediterranean cuisine. My party of 3 were all blown away by their meals. Also, the gentleman working on our particular venture was excellent. Very highly recommend this place if you're in the area.

Got a gyro salad and a chicken gyro wrap through foodora. The salad was pretty spicy and small and hard to eat. My boyfriend said the wrap tasted odd. You get what you paid for.

Got the shawarma plate - not bad, but not great. On the plus side, the portion was huge and the staff was friendly and efficient. The down side was the lack of sauce (there was a small amount spread in the corner), and the huge portion was mainly due to a bunch of rice and lettuce piled up with a little bit of chicken on top. The vegetables also weren't cut well (so some pieces were massive and others tiny) , but at least that means they were cut in store. I also asked for no hot sauce yet somehow it was still spicy. Nothing terrible to say, but won't be going back, definitely had better elsewhere.

Not bad. (PRO) Taste is decent. I’ve had better shawarma but overall not bad. I will give them that. I order for the first time chicken shawarma plate which comes with chicken, salad and rice. Portion is a good size for your money! (CON) -Very small with only two chairs. -No washrooms. I had to go next door to pizza nova to wash my hands. -Only paid street parking available IF you can find any. Overall is an ok place to try.
