If you're looking for shawarma, you have to try Sana Grill (this location specifically!). You can't beat the quality of the ingredients. It's even better with the amazing customer service you get! And of course, it tastes delicious every single time. My boyfriend and I have been here here almost every week, he makes the trip out from Whitby just for this (and to see me too I hope). An easy 5/5 stars!

Of all the different fast-food places I go to, this is consistently the best. I am willing to drive past every other Sana Grill (and fast-food place for that matter) to specifically go to this one. Why, you might ask?1. Quality of ingredients- You can taste the freshness of the chicken, the crunchiness of the lettuce2. Value- For what I pay at other locations who often have higher prices, this location has lower prices considering the amount and quality of the food3. Service- The people that work here do it because they enjoy it and I can always see the passion they put into making their food. They care a lot about making sure you get exactly what you ordered, that its great tasting, and that you're satisfiedOut of the 20 times I've been here, I have yet to be disappointed once and every time I go, I am always eager to return.My favourite item on the menu has to be the Chicken and Rice Combo.

Just moved to Burlington and tried this place for the first time and it did not disappoint!Stopping mid meal to write this review. Really liked the owners, they were super cautious with gloves and cleanliness.Food is fresh off the stove and simply delicious!Okay back to my meal now.

Absolutely the most flavorful and fresh shawarma I've ever had. The owner is an absolute great guy and is super friendly. Prices are reasonable and the quality is off the charts excellent!

Everything we ordered was delicious.The shawarma was juicy and tasted authentic.The falafel was crispy on the outside and soft in the inside.Enjoyed every bite.Would definitely come back her again!

Located between Toronto and Niagara Falls lies a city lined with monotonous suburbs and an unending supply of perfectly ordinary days. Moving to a colourless city like Burlington has never compared to being surrounded by the fragrance of Halal takeout in Mississauga, but amid this urban desert, lies an artifact of an old home. Sauna Grill, my grandmother and I’s favourite shawarma place, sat at the end of Plains Road. Albeit having visited countless times, waves of excitement always rose through me at the idea of sitting down and listening to my grandmother's stories while indulging in the nuances of Arabian foods.My formative years living with my grandmother were marked by the smell of breakfast, as it would travel through the kitchen walls to embalm the house with its sweet scent. Until her legs grew frail, she would stand arched like a bridge over the oven preparing eggs and manakeesh for my brother and I to eat. After age took over and this proved too gruelling of a task, discovering Sauna Grill allowed us to continue making memories centralised by the food that she could no longer prepare. Saturday evenings were painted by the restaurant owner's bright smile as he served us heated plates of sharply spiced falafel and buttery flatbreads. Though my grandmother treated the food like she was Gordon Ramsey on Kitchen Nightmares, the laughs we shared at the dinner table filled our guts, unlike any cuisine.Among my caucasian friends, Sauna Grill was never a favourite. They would complain of the flavour of heavily seasoned onions that were thinly diced into the majority of menu items. Be that as it may, the humble food that was always cooked with love and affection is only complimentary to my memory of the restaurant. It also includes the comforting smiles of the employees, the flat walls of the original rental unit, the plants that lived under a layer of dust, and the pirated Bollywood music CD that has been on rotation for years. Most importantly, it was my grandmother's undeniable presence that turned the quiet atmosphere into a place where I look back and remember fireworks of different emotions. “It is what you make of it” is what she would always say sarcastically after finishing an underwhelming meal, yet growing up I realise this proverb applies just as much to experiences.My grandmother's funeral was held in the city of Nablus, located in the heart of Palestine where no day that goes by is uneventful, and where each street ever changes from the last. Though it was the coldest day to historically pass over the Arabian desert, her celebration of life ended with loved ones sharing warm foods over a quiet dining room table. Gone was her erupted laughter, and gone with it was the Mediterranean homeliness I found within the city of Burlington. It was following the stretch of two empty years that Sauna Grill had crossed my mind as a restaurant, and not as a husk of my grandmother's quick time in Canada. As I opened the fogged restaurant doors, unsurprisingly stared back at me the same smooth tiled walls, while my senses filled with a familiar deep scent of food and forgotten tunes that were left playing. I shyly walked to the counter and read my grandmother's order of Warak Enab and Koosa.Though nothing had physically changed, it felt as though the restaurant was an imposter to the Sauna Grill I had once known and loved. As I sat at the table facing the window, I was reminded of my grandmother’s soft voice that kept replaying in my head. Over and over again. The camera fades out. I am in a mental hospital. I keep hearing her voice. Over and over again. It does not stop. I long for Sauna Grill.

Best chicken and rice in Burlington ! Love love love their white sauce and they have the best rice with onions ! Great flavour and great portion sizes !

Delicious food. Very happy I came here. Also friendly people. Thank you for your work.

Came in last night a bit of line up but I don’t mind waiting for good food. Customer service was great the 2 gentleman working were fast and polite. Food was amazing I had chicken rice combo with extra white sauce, I’ve had shawarmas all around Burlington but this right here hits different. Keep it up guys

Not nearly as good as these reviews say. Service was slow but I'll give them a pass on that. A lot of orders came in when I was there so it was a bit of a wait. Customer service was great though.I got the chicken and rice combo. Chicken is pretty dry, kind of bland and not much flavor. The rice has more flavor to it. Salad is weak to say the least. A bit of iceberg lettuce, a few pieces of cucumber and tomato, with a tiny splash of dressing on top.I'd need a damn good reason to go back.
