If you enjoy only the taste of pita then this is your place. I ordered a large lamb and chicken pita, you pay and TIP prior to your food being prepared. I tipped a generous amount entering into the sacred social contract of good tip good service. Apparently this donair dude making my food does not perscribe to this tipping contract. Minmimal veggies. Less meat. He prepared it as if this was all of the food left on the planet, a strand of lamb and a piece of chicken. The entire thing tasted just like pita bread, very dissapointing. Will not be going back again, I recommend you save your money, things are expensive and i beleive in supporting businesses on the shore, but not when the quality is poor and the food does not even match the pictures.There are many other fantastic places to get a Donair on the north shore. The only reason that this review gets a star is that the guy who baged my food was polite and the restaurant was clean. read more

On June 8th, 2025 we ordered an early dinner at your franchise located in New Port, Port Moody. It was a disappointment! The lamb was dried out and flavourless, the salid was soggy, and the humas was runny. The doors were left open. Therefore, the temperature inside the store was the same as the temperature outside. Blackout blinds, awnings or air conditioning may be required to prevent the food from spoiling. I wish to remain anonymous and have no further comment. read more

Decided to come back and try this place once again after after already trying it one last time since DoorDash was offering a buy one get one free deal. The portion sizes are even smaller than the last time I went in and that was so small. Donair beef is just ground beef with some spices which is cheap. There are so many other good donair restaurants you can go to here in Van, so there's no point giving your money to these guys to get not even half the portion size. Hope it was worth losing a regular customer for $1 worth of ground beef. I'm actually done with this place for good now. read more

I'd give them 0 star if it was an option. Ever since they got taken over by new management their main goal is to profit as much as possible while skimping maximum on the food. DO NOT ORDER extra meat on anything, it's a total scam. I use to order Donair dude 3 times a week now I'll never order from them again. The below images are supposed to be Donair Fries with lamb and extra chicken. Do you see any chicken? Only 1 tiny piece. They've done this to me multiple times now so I started ordering two different meats to force them to add it but that didn't work. You just lost a long time customer over a few dollars worth of chicken. read more

The best donair ship in Vancouver Their Employees are perfect and specially Mr.Amir is so kind I highly recommend this restaurant and it is really one of the best restaurants read more

Ugh! I went to try this place through Good To Go. Smart business owners know this app is a good way for potential customers to try your business. However, the arrogant owner I interacted with gave me the poorest excuse for a meal he could. It was supposed to be $18 worth of food for $5.99. What I got was a cup of so-so rice, a few pieces of chicken and two small potatoes cut in two. This cheap, miserable offering wasn't even worth the $5.99! Don't wasn't your money here. Customers not important here. Lots of competition nearby. read more

Donair Dude - This was supposed to be their Good To Go offer worth $18! Pathetic - Donairs Near Me - North Vancouver, British Columbia

Great food, attentive service, extensive veggie and sauce options. Went in to try Donair Dude on Lonsdale this afternoon and glad I did! Picked up a falafel dish and now I"m a fan. Falafel wrap with four patties is $14.99 -- pricey, but I guess everything is these days -- and there is a three-patty option for $11.99. Loved the taste, the fresh veggies, the service. I'll go again! read more

Tasty, fresh and plentiful. Ordered take out chicken donair bowl and was surprised how much food was included for the price. The ingredients were great, the chicken and the sauce wonderful. I was looking for something to break me out of the pizza or fast food rut and this did it. read more

Donair Dude - Chicken Donair Bowl - Donairs Near Me - North Vancouver, British Columbia

I wish I had something good to say. I ordered a falafel pita, fries and dolmades. I couldn't finish the falafel because half way through my stomach starting hurting, I genuinely don't know how it hit that fast. It was so dry and lacked any melodies in flavour, just overwhelming cumin and a weird mace like spice. Next the fries were just bad. For $5.00+ I expected a little more. They were all very soggy and stuck together, not much more to say. Last I ordered two dolmades, these were good, but like you'd get out of a can from any store. Hands down the only enjoyable part of my meal though. I can't speak for any meat dishes but if you're a vegetarian I'd probably skip this place. read more

Used to be a good place to go but now new management changed its quality and taste. The food taste bland and very over salted (poutine). Unfortunately also serving size has went down. Wish new management the best and up their effort in pleasing their customers. read more

I frequent this location often. The staff is friendly, the food's not bad. Recently ( 2022 ) it has improved even more. This isn't really a 'sit down' place, more of a grab and go. The do deliver often thru Uber eats. It's always busy at peek hours. Needs a greater selection of drinks though. read more

the food and the service was very good and place was in very good condition overall 5 stars

Service - effective Price - perfect Food - best Donair pita in the city The only spot that grills their donairs perfectly. My go to is the tobouli and chicken pita Donair. I love it. After so many other places have started strong and faded, Donair Dude stays consistent. Not a fan of the rice, but I always order the pita anyway. read more

I'm sooo happy we have a Donair Dude on the North Shore now. Lonsdale Ave is cool but now it's even cooler. There's Donair Dude. I had chicken with all my add ons and it was delicious! This location presses them on a grill which makes it easier to eat. It's easy to hold. Unfortunately I've eaten here two more times after my first visit, and both times were disappointing, tasteless, and non satisfying. read more

Another new restaurant that opened on Lonsdale recently. Love that you can get the wraps in pita or tortilla bread. I ordered the Lamb wrap in spinach tortilla bread. The donair was amazing and very filling. Their spicy paste and sweet sauce are nice touches. Bright airy place with decent seating space. Will definitely visit again when craving middle eastern food :) read more

I got the lamb grilled pita donair. The portions were large so I felt full when I finished the whole thing. The hot sauce was not as spicy as I expected but the donair sauce (tatziki) tasted extremely good with the other ingredients. This time I got the feta cheese as a topping and I think it went better with the tomatoes, onions, and jalapeño peppers. The staff was super nice, very patient when I was ordering. I thought that the price was a little bit steep (~10$) read more

Delicious flavors! I find the red pepper paste especially good. It adds a nice peppery sweetness to the donair. It's exceptional value for money because they load each donair with a heap of meat and veggies. My go-to donair spot! read more

Donair Dude is hands down my very favourite and best donair place - I am always very satisfied with the service, the food is super fresh and the restaurant is very clean - every location. The prices are great for the amount of food you can get and they have great combo options as well as vegetarian options. I have been to 3 of their locations and they are very consistent in quality and taste. Well done! To anybody who is looking for a great donair place - you must check this place out! read more

One of the best donair places I've been to! They give a great portion of food for the amount that you play. I always get the falafel with everything!! Yumm I always recommend them to friends and family, and get food from there way too often because it's so good. read more

For the hungry man or woman. Great lunch stop that, depending on selection, is actually a semi-healthy option that won't break the bank. Helpful staff, tastes good, well packaged take-out, and options. Not really an eat in place unless as it has more informal seating. Good for a solo mission. read more

Best Donair in North Vancouver! It's not even the best on the street! Went in to get a falafel as I thought a real Donair place might have a better one than wrap zone. I did not know this place was a chain. I ordered a falafel pita and was charged extr for cheese- oh ok....so I'm ordering wHat is basically middle eastern street food- one pita was $10.50. I have never paid that for a falafel in my life! Anyway falafels are all in the patty- fresh fried and crisp. It came out of the fryer promising. But, when I actually ate it it was somehow cold not crisp And over powering cumin taste- I hate that! After you pick your veggies they then wrap roll it up and squish it on a panini grill till it's half moon shaped and dry! Wtf??!! It was a stodgy mess and most was thrown out. Really terrible!! read more

I have been to this place twice. It is kind a sub-par for Donair shop, not to mention that they are about $1-$2 more per donair. The staff was friendly however they didn't listen very well as I asked for a beef don't air and what comes on it and they had to tell me what first comes the beef chicken lamb or falafel... Really???... I already said I wanted a "beef" donair. Sigh -- new or inexperienced employees? Maybe... they were hard to understand, and hard to read as far as their body language, they were nice but not very helpful. Getting information out of them was like trying to extract a quill out of a porcupine. I will not be back. My rating: 3 out of 5 stars at best! read more

It used to be good the first few times we had it, but the last two orders we had were absolutely terrible. Dried up pieces of chicken and too much oil in the rice. I'm definitely not going back unless they change their quality of chicken and pay more attention and give better food. read more

"Hey honey, should we get Donair Dude tonight?" That conversation happens at our house at least twice a week. We LOVE this place. We have perfected the mixture of ingredients we love and can't get enough. Staff is friendly and the owners are very nice. Space is always clean and service is fast. Good sized portions. I always get the chicken - delicious. BF gets a combo of chicken, beef, and lamb and swears by it. Don't miss out on the garlic paste or sweet sauce and always top with feta! Such a great addition to Lonsdale! read more

I had half chicken half lamb pita donair, it was Pretty bland tasting. Portion size was good and the place was clean, with friendly staff. I won't be going back, yummy donair is better. read more

insanely over priced for the blandest possible donair. this is what happens when you get a donair from a chain.

My go to donair place, was thrilled when they opened up in north van. Lamb is my go to, and I never leave hungry read more

Nothing about the quality or service was positive. Their donairs are actually a weird grilled calzone/panini hybrid and the fillings are super sub-standard. A big pocket of overpriced yuck. Sorry dudes, go to any of the 1000s of your competitors to check in on what a standard donair might taste like... read more

Love this place, great food and not so bad price. I love the box for a low carb option and it's loaded with veggies. Flavorful and filling, great prices too. read more

Super tasty very large. Lots of choice of toppings. Gets busy, but has a quick turn around. Not a lot of choices for veggies or sauces. A little expensive $12 with tip for a donair and pop. read more

So happy they opened a location in North Van! Great service, friendly staff and the donairs are delicious! I got a lamb donair, and I was full for the whole day. It was absolutely amazing. I don't understand why they have a tip option on their pos machine, but that seems to be the norm these days. Anyway. Food was delish!! read more

Best Donair I've had! They are not selfish with any of the toppings or tzatziki. Load me up every time for a great price, highly recommend.

Clean, delicious and friendly staff. The falafel pita is a must try. I go there at least once a week.

I had a craving for a donair and decided to give this place a try. I ordered a Grilled Pita Lamb Donair with most of toppings, most of the spreads, and all the sauces and I was NOT disappointed! Great fresh food with lots of options. I will definitely be going back soon! read more

Try Falafel King on Denman, then rate Donair Dude. The one star is for the staff/service. Food tastes very bland, boring and is definitely not good value for money. read more
