    After a long day at work and travel, I was famished when I looked around on yelp for some affordable place to eat. Donair Spot popped up and I decided to give it a go. The place is super small but oh so nice! The owner James is the happiest, friendliest person I've met. When he asked how I would like my Donair I thought it's about what I want off the menu, but no! He meant how can I customize it for u!! With my add ons and stuff he recommended what I should add more and all at usual cost. When I told him ive been out since 6 am and it's 4pm now and I'm famished, he said go take ur donair and sit I will get u something else. He made me a big bowl of surprise fries!! Crispy crunchy fries with homemade sauces topped with cilantro and they were divine! The donair was yummy too. Fresh salads and superb homemade sauces. Highly recommend that you ask him for his surprise fries too! Food: 4/5 Ambience: 3/5 Service: almost 5/5

    Sandwich board menu

    Delicious chicken, happy go lucky servers and great portions! This restaurant doesn't really jump out at you in W Broadway. I actually noticed the Subway sign and was walking over for an egg omelette on flatbread when I walked past their sandwich board in front of their store. As you can tell from my other review I love Middle Eastern food! Walked in and was greeted by 2 cheerful guys behind the counter. I was looking at their kebab menu on the wall and was told they're not serving that at the moment as it takes too long for lunch. The shawarma looked great but I asked for their largest plate as I was famished! I got half lamb and chicken on rice with garlic& hot sauce, tabouli, and humus with a full folded pita. I'm a big eater and the portion was amazing for under $13 with taxes. Chicken was nicely seasoned and salted the way I like. Lamb were flat slices that I wasn't too crazy about. Tabouli was awesome and cut away some of the saltiness when mixed into the rice with chicken. Humus I found a little on the runny side. I nice unexpected find and great value! They really need to increase their visibility from the street level.

    falafel wrap!
    Wendy L.

    Great place for falafels! Too bad I never paid too much attention to this block on broadway or else maybe I would've tried this place sooner. I ordered a falafel wrap $6.99. The falafels were pretty good; good flavour and not dry - I've had bitter ones, burnt ones, and dry ones before at other donair places... Ingredients for the wrap tasted fresh. Overall the wrap was tasty and I enjoyed it. Will probably ask for more sauce in my wrap next time. Price is good and portions are good. Will definitely come back to try their lamb!

    Good portions and ratio of ingredients.

    Delicious gyros with good variety of sauces. Solid pita bread. Smaller dinning area, good for 2-3 people in a group at most. Quick service overall, but it's popular at lunch so there may be a line. Good overall value with plenty of food.

    I have had the chicken and lamb wrap and platters and I love them both. Not many places in town carry pickled turnips or garlic sauce let alone both.

    The mixed chicken/lamb platter ended up being enough for two.

    The lebanese wrap is my go-to when I'm getting off the Canada line and need a quick bite to eat, somehow the tabouleh just ties it all together for me.

My coworker and I came here on a Saturday afternoon, we got a reservation ahead of time and I'm glad we did because this place was pretty busy. We got their aperol spritz for drinks which was very refreshing, would recommend this for the summer. For food, we got their dip platter and chose their hummus, labne, and baba ghannouj. My coworker was gluten-free so they were very nice to give us some gluten free chips instead of the bread with the dips. We also got their halloumi fries which came with a pomegrante dipping sauce - I LOVED IT! The halloumi fries were cooked so well! We also got their prawns which were really fresh and delicious. I would definitely come back! Their hummus was so good, it's for sure a very authentic Lebanese spot.

I ordered a hibiscus tea while I waited for my friend. It was incredibly refreshing and flavorful, the best I have ever had. For food, we shared a bunch of stuff. We got a dip sampler with labneh, hummus, and an eggplant dip. All were fantastic and came out beautifully. They brought gluten free crackers out for me as well. The shrimp was divine. Garlicky, flavorful, so good. Will be thinking about this for a while. Definitely order sides, as the proteins just come with the protein listed unless you do a lunch special. The halloumi fries were incredible and came with an amazing sauce. Fried in a dedicated gluten free frier- amazing. The food was paired with a lovely aperol spritz, a lovely patio, and a kind and attentive server. Would go back every week if I could.

    A very tiny yet highly acclaimed restaurant in Vancouver near Yaletown-Roundhouse SkyTrain station…read more We stumbled upon this place while walking right at opening, so we got first pick at one of the 3 tables for dine-in. Definitely try to go at opening or when it is not busy, as the dine-in experience is memorable - they place your order in a long wooden board to make it a beautiful spread. We got the Manoush'eh Special which has ground beef, pomegranate, etc and Sham Style which is shaped like a boat. We also tried the yogurt drink which pairs well with the dishes. The only con is that this place does not have free water, but it is no problem to have our own water bottles supplementing the meal. We also got the lentil soup which is pretty good. Definitely sufficient to share one to try, but the Manoush'eh outshines the rest of the items. I loved the quality and texture of the Manoush'eh and just the breads in general. It is a lot of food for 2 people so if you want a snack, you can definitely just share 1. Some people go here for the wraps too. Overall, an affordable restaurant with good food. We got the most expensive items and it was less than 50 CAD all-in, but a lot of the items are around the 10 CAD mark.

We were greeted with a warm embrace and a comforting welcome drink of chai tea paired with delicious finger foods. ​The Dine-Out menu was impressively extensive.

We felt like kids in a candy store, eager to explore the vibrant, exotic flavours. The mango-infused dishes were a standout! ​The service was impeccable. One server even followed us outside just to hand us cardamom cookies for the road. Many restaurants treat Dine Out as a budget-set menu, but East is East used it to truly showcase their best work. We left with new favorites and a plan to return very soon.
