“ Wow. This is the best shawarma I’ve ever had. The potatoes are cooked to a perfect crisp. The lettuce and salad is all super fresh. The sauces are made in house! Very tasty! Super clean dine in. Looking forward to being a frequent customer ”
“ One of the best shawarma places i have come across till date. We ordered 29.99 two person meal with chicken as a choice in our wraps. Portions were big and filling also veggies were super fresh (even for dinner). Love the way they served wraps with great amount of sauces unlike many other shawarma places. Thanks to Prachi for that (she did amazing job making our wraps). We also had a pleasant surprise with garlic potatoes. Baklava is at its best. Overall, It’s a must try place for shawarma lovers. Will go again and again!! ”
“ If you are thinking about coming here, just do it! We have been here three times in the past two weeks and have already recommended this place to our friends and family. We grabbed this place upon seeing a picture of their garlic potatoes. Didn't order it on the first visit but also didn't need to because their portions are more than adequate. I'm usually a red meat person and my partner adores chicken. However, Shawarma Spot made us question our choices. I got the Donair and chicken mix over rice and my partner got the chicken over fries. The pieces of chicken are large, not typical shreds of chicken and the portion of meat was very generous. It's white meat and super juicy. The pieces of Donair were charred to perfection and the portion was also very generous. Their meats are marinated for 18 hours! After our first meal, my partner was hooked on the Donair and I continued to order the mix. We had to add the garlic potatoes though! Our most recent trip to this establishment was with family. We ordered the meal that served 4-5 and received two party trays worth of food. One tray included the rice, potatoes, fries, and topped with Donair and the other tray included salad with the garlic sauce and hummus. Had to get a small side of chicken so the family could try it. We recommend getting the harissa, really flavourful and has a kick to it. We were only able to finish half the food but had to save room for dessert. They offer roll ice cream by the other wall and the texture was on point. We love that the toppings are customizable and also their minis were large enough to share. Can't wait for our next trip here! ”
“ We had an amazing experience with shawarma spot. The service was incredible and friendly specially Haily. She maid my shawarma in an excellent way. We can’t wait to come back and try more dishes. Thank you haily making my day great. ”
“ Absolutely loved this shawarma spot! The food was incredible—full of flavor, fresh, and the portions were huge (you definitely get your money’s worth!). What really stood out though was the gentleman working behind the counter. He was unbelievably fast, yet still took the time to make each order with care. You could really tell he put love into every wrap he made. On top of that, he was so kind and attentive—just made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend if you're looking for great food and even better service! ”
“ We’ve been here 3x since their opening less than a month ago due to both how amazing the food and service is. The owner is so kind and hands on each time we have come in. The garlic potatoes are by far the best I’ve had in any shawarma place thus far and everything is extremely fresh. All the sauces are made in house and it shows. I only have good things to say about this restaurant! We look forward to returning! ”
“ Amazing place, affordable prices, great food, portions are fair size and the customer service is above and beyond. One of my favourite places in Durham Region to Eat, the best Mediterranean food I have tried so far. Never disappointed at The Shawarma Spot. I highly recommend this food establishment as it's also very clean, quiet, respectful and very a enjoyable place to take your loved ones. I try to go here any time I have extra money and feel like eating out as it's always a pleasant dine in or take out experience. I accidently found them on Skip the dishes and I am ever so thankful as it's my favorite place in Durham now. Thank you for always being so kind, and being such an enjoyable place to eat at. Bless ”
“ I had the falafel plate and really enjoyed it—the house-made sauces were super smooth, especially the toum, tahini, and hot sauce. The garlic potatoes were perfectly crispy with just the right amount of herbs. The portion size was great too—I basically had enough for a meal and a half. Sunni was awesome, really attentive and got my order out quickly. Overall, I was really happy with the experience and I’ll definitely stop by again whenever I’m in the area. ”
