This is our all time favourite shwarma place! We have been coming here for years so I thought it was about time for a review. I can’t even eat shwarma anywhere else now because it doesn’t compare lol. But honestly it so so good! And the portions are huge! They pretty much carried us through covid, we were getting it every two weeks. We still get it about once a month and we are never unsatisfied. This is a little hidden gem and they for sure know what they’re doing! The pic may not be pretty but I always get extra sauces and any shwarma lover knows that may not be as photo ready as it tastes lol. But oh man this picture is how shwarma should be. I get hot sauce on the side but hot sauce is bomb too! So good! good job folks?

Well to start..the rice+chicken shawarma was flavorless, i was having a hard time finishing my food.. the lettuce was alot better than the dish though... and to add insult, our wrap came unwrapped at the bottom of our bag, sauce everywhere dripping and was super soggy.. this was our first and absolute last time buying from taste of shawarma.. I would not recommend anyone to this place. Horrible food and service.

Tried this joint for the first time for lunch. Old, old and older, dried up mess supposed to be "chicken". Tasteless, not even warm enough, employees so disinterested, not even a greeting. Overpriced and let's face it, if we allow these restaurants to treat us like crap, so be it. That's on us. Can't believe what they charge us. Buyer beware...read reviews and take the crap back to store. Always get a receipt because they will dispute. I am feeling sick. Will call health dept.

Just a fast food shawarma place, doesn't have real middle eastern shawarma options. Platters and shawarmas are full of lettuce, sauces and rice.The only plus they have it's chicken quality, tender and juicy. But wouldn't go just for that... Really need middle eastern options. Has good service for just a quick run when nothing else around.

My FAVOURITE Shawarma Fries on the whole GTA.DAY TIME PORTIONS is superior

Out of all the Shawarma places i been to, hands down these ppl serve the best chicken dinner plates. They don’t cheap out with their portions either. My fav is chicken plate, white rice, all toppings with shwarma sauce + hot sauce.Pro tip; eat it sideways from the veggie side to chicken side so you get a good mix of food on your fork.

I ordered on Doordash. Most disgusting, burnt chicken, dry fries and tasteless sauce. First of all, they gave me the wrong order. I paid for two Shawarma chicken plates and one small fries. Doordash wanted them to redo the order but they said "Sorry, we're no longer accepting orders from Doordash". So I ended up getting a full refund. It's a few times they mess up my orders. Never ordering from them again.

Wow, tried Taste of Shawarma for a change and your plate is not even close to as good as Two Brothers. Smaller Portion. No Potatoes. No options. Very little sauce. just overall poorly seasoned and disappointing. Would not spend money here again

I really liked the food here, the meat was not too dry and not too wet, it was perfect. The sizes are good and it is much better then the previous shawarma place I was going to.

I walked in around midnight on a Saturday and this girl was working, she said she was going to make me the best shawarma. She wasn’t lying, it was delicious!!! Highly recommend this place, and I’ve tried many different places!
