The first time we went there, we weren't as familiar with Donair items, so we ordered the chicken shawarma platter. We were blown away by how generous their portions were, the worker kept pouring the meat onto the box along with everything else (we really thought the box wasn't able to close!). Then as we come back more often, we tried out their other items, their lamb is now our favorite. The seasonings they put into their lamb is different than ones like Donair Dude, it is much more unique. Their platter's sides are just unbeatable, garlic potatoes, hummus, salad, and pickled goods! Every time my girlfriend and I go there, we only order one platter to share, and we still can't finish it! Regardless which worker is serving you theyll all treat you generously, must try!

Ended up coming here for lunch twice in one week. First time my mom had the Chicken Shawarma Wrap…read moreand I had the Vegetarian Denver Omelet Pan. Seems like the Pan items take longer to prepare, so it took awhile for the order to come out. Worth the wait in my opinion though. I loved my Vegetarian Denver Omelet Pan. It was piping hot, and the Omelet was so fluffy! This dish was a definite winner for me. One of the best things I've ordered in all the times that I've come here. Next time we came I ordered Fries and Cheese, with a bowl of Levantine Lentil soup. Mom had the Shawarma Chicken Pan, and my daughter had the Pesto Avocado Egg Wrap. The first thing that came out was my Levantine Lentil soup. I wished that they had brought it out later though. I don't like eating before everyone else's food has arrived, and it was quite awhile before the rest of the food arrived. Probably due to the Shawarma Chicken Pan since as I said before, that the Pan items seem to take longer to prepare. I took a few spoonfuls of my soup every few minutes just so I could enjoy at least few spoonfuls of it while it was still somewhat hot, but I would have much preferred for the soup to have been brought later, together with all the rest of the food. I felt guilty taking those few spoonfuls, but then the longer I waited...the colder my soup got. Next time I will tell them to bring the soup out later, when all of the food is ready to bring to the table. My fries and cheese came out after the soup. This also came before the other orders were ready. When it came, the server said she would bring some forks for us to eat the fries, and also some sour cream to go with the fries. Holy smokes...she took ages to come back to us. How long does a person need to go grab a few forks and a small container of sour cream?! I think the Shawarma Chicken Pan didn't look quite as impressive as the Omelet Pan I'd had earlier in the week. It was just chicken in the Pan. My Vegetarian Denver Omelet had been a lot more colourful than the Chicken. The dish did come with fries and they also gave my mom some bread as well. None of it very colourful though. I think if my mom wants chicken at this place, then we'll stick to ordering wraps for her. They seem to do very nice wraps at this place. My daughter had enjoyed the Pesto Avocado Egg Wrap before so this was her second time ordering it. For Pan dishes, I'd recommend the Halloumi Pan that I had on a previous visit and the Vegetarian Denver Omelet Pan.

I was really looking forward to trying Zaatar & Zeit as I love Lebanese food. The pictures on the…read moremenu looked amazing, which generated more excitement. There were samples of some kind of wrap at the front door of the restaurant. They were generous portions for samples but we didn't really like it. The inside of the restaurant was clean. With one person working at the cashier and another one only in the kitchen, the wait time was somewhat long. I get that the wrap/bread is baked fresh. Nonetheless, should they not have one more person working in the kitchen considering it's a Saturday? The chicken tawouk pan looked quite sad when i opened it up. Sad looking pieces of chicken breast with a tiny bit of mushroom slices. It came with some kind of cukes, garlic sauce and hummus. The menu stipulated juicy chicken breasts but the chicken was very dry and bland. Good thing my dish came with sauce otherwise it would have been difficult to have it passed down my throat. The kafta supreme was nicely presented. The menu definitely looked extremely tempting so my husband and brother both ordered it. Despite the nice presentation, both of them said it was extremely bland. My husband added sauce from my chicken to his wrap but my brother ate it as is. Yes the bread was freshly made and that was probably the best out of this wrap. Tim Hortons flatbread tasted better than this at a fraction of the price.

Return or not return?…read more Return, but.... Had combo plate, chicken bowl, schwarma pide. Liked both the meat and chicken, but rest of family thought the chicken was too dry. Other issue with chicken is it had skin and chunks of fat that detracted from the experience. Disliked the fact they charged to have sauce on the side vs in the food. Not cool. Menu also confusing between a platter and bowl. I was confused and literally a minute later another customer came in and asked the same question I did. What's the difference? Garlic sauce a little runny, but good. Liked their hot sauce. It's very vinegar-y and hot all at once. Pricing a bit on high side, but then again it's Vancouver.
