    Kebob (beef and lamb) in a laffa.
    Geremy S.

    I came here with a friend for lunch. I love middle eastern and mediterranean food so I was pretty excited! There was only one other occupied table, though parking took a while because the lot was pretty full from the other businesses in the plaza. There was only one waitress working, which made sense considering the number of patrons in the restaurant. She gave us the menus and brought out the usual side dishes but we had to ask for utensils...but it took a while to be able to ask her because she kind of disappeared after bringing out the sides and our waters! As a result, there were a few minutes where we were just staring at the food, contemplating whether to eat it with our hands out of desperation because we were so hungry, even though the lettuce was kind of wilted. Luckily we were able to hold off until our utensils came, which is when we ordered our food. The waitress was nice enough but the service wasn't particularly friendly or memorable. I got a kebob (beef and lamb) in a laffa with a side of fries, and asked for fries to be put inside the laffa too. My friend got something similar, also with fries inside. Of course, when the food came out, there were no fries to be found inside either of our wraps. We had fries on the side anyway, so we didn't bother waiting for the food to be remade after telling the waitress that there were no fries inside. But seriously, we were two of four customers inside the restaurant and the other customers already had their food. There's no excuse to NOT have the order done correctly. I'm still giving three stars because even without the fries, the kebob in a laffa was really, really good. The laffa in particular was really nice and chewy. The fries on the side were also good, but it's hard to mess up fries. Despite the issues I had, I would consider coming back here one more time to see if this was just an off-day.

    Well I don't know where to start, while I read a lot of the other comments I wonder why everyone is it only giving it two stars. I had an excellent dinner at the restaurant and as I looked around I noticed everyone around me was too. My girlfriend and I started by being greeted with an assortment of crackers, pickled vegetables, and lightly pickled beets. As someone who doesn't enjoy beets I found myself finishing off the bowl that I was given. After being served water I began to look over the menu, I read a lot of the reviews on this site about the shawarma in a laffa and I had to say while it wasn't the best chicken shawarma I've had. It was still decent, what blew me away though was the other food being served in the restaurant as well as what my girlfriend got. Taking a look around I noticed a lot of people getting the beef ribs which looked absolutely amazing. (Made me regret my choice of getting shawarma) My girlfriend got the chicken schnitzel which was fairly decent, average fries that are served at most restaurants around the GTA. The Chicken Schnitzel is served with a complete laffa, a salad (decent size), and as well as a side choice along with the schnitzel my girlfriend ended up bringing half of it home due to how much food she received. Lastly what impressed me the most was the owner who dropped into our table (as well as everyone else's) and proceeded to ask if we had been there before and if we lived in the area, after the small chit-chat he offered us free dessert. While we were so stuffed from the meal I was unsure of how I would be able to fit in anymore. Well I managed to as the baklava as well as the other dessert we were brought were fantastic. The baklava is one of the best I've ever had, it was a little sweet but otherwise amazing. All in all a great restaurant i really like the vibe, I don't know if they have recentely stepped up but this has become one of my favourite restaurants in the neighbourhood.

    Amazing kebabs (especially the chicken) and beef ribs, which are hard to find in other kosher restaurants.

    I believe Aish Tanoor may have changed management. Otherwise I couldn't explain the stark contrast…read morefrom my first dining experience there. First of all, the place is dirty. Second, it's completely empty, whereas the first time I was there it was bustling. We placed a large order for takeout for a dinner party. We placed the order via their online ordering system. When I came to pick up the food, I was greeted with "what order?". It took them 5 minutes to finally bother looking up the online ordering system to find the order there. Then they said it would take 45 minutes to prepare. At the time that I have hungry dinner guests waiting at home. At which point, I opted to leave. But before I left, I tried to get my money back, and the attendant was useless. He told me that he cannot do it without the manager. He called the manager and I spoke to him, and he told me that he will issue the refund the following week. The following week, the refund was not issued.. surprise surprise. I had to chase the manager for several days before the refund was finally issued. Yikes. Yikes. Yikes.

    Very basic atmosphere, not dancing nor dining room look, large colourful paintings on the wall,…read morehowever, the food each time I have been there or ordered take-out it has been delicious ! Have never been disappointed . The service was fine, they came to take our order in good timing and were also able to make some adjustments to the menu.

    Why do I like Shalom India?? Because it's neither laffa nor pizza! I know our kosher choices in the…read morecity are slowly growing, but these guys are really giving it a go with something very different, and need our support. They are also very customer centered, sadly a trait missing from other kosher options. For our first visit we sampled mostly from the indo-Chinese menu. The Manchurian stir fry (came with rice) was tasty but could have used a bit more curry. The chicken pad Thai was good but the flavor was not classic pad Thai, more of a tasty Asian brown sauce. We tried the combo Indian appetizers which I think would have been tastier right out of the fryer and blotted a bit more (takeout fried food is always a challenge!) But I still enjoyed the offering I'm looking forward to going back and trying the straight up Indian menu. I'll also take advantage of their weekly FB specials! Such a treat to finally have that option in our city!!

Of particular note is that when I was there, there were a few clients of middle East background. They did not seem to know anything about kosher, and were highly critical of everything and refused to pay. They were clearly trying to agitate. The amazing thing is how the owner treated them with great patience and dignity. I will definitely be going back. Amazing.
