    Chicken stripes
    Andy B.

    Simply used to be the best donair shop in Edmonton! But the portion size has gone down considerably and when my wife ordered chicken stripes all she got was a "chicken" burger cut into stripes. Hard to believe that our once favourite cheat meal stop is no longer worth our time.

    Well damn. That...was really good! I've been a Simon King purest for my entire adult life. Indeed...they are fantastic! But simply put. Simply Donairs... Simply awesome! Was in the neighbourhood and noticed that they have great reviews. Decided to put it to the test and expand my horizons. Very clean, bright and modern decor. Really nice for such a place. Friendly staff. And when it comes to what matters most...a Donair that certainly gives the competition a run for their money! Fresh pita, veggies, and a delicious sweet sauce topped my Regular donair. Meat was well seasoned and cooked perfectly! My eyes have been openned. Count on me being back! Update - April 2017 Not as good as the first time... Not enough sauce. Great meat. Either they messed up...or their garlic sauce is Taziki. Still good...but not as amazing as I recall. If it were my local shop...I could certainly work with them.

    I finally tried the donair salad. Yes. Salad. Under this mess of delicious donair meat is lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and olives.

    I have been to two locations of Simply Donair. The St. Albert one is great too. Their donair anything is my favourite in the city. I always get a small donair. The small is pretty big, it is similar to most regular size donairs from other places. Fries always are made to order. But the donair salad is my new favourite. All the things I love about donairs in a "convenient" tray to eat. It is much less messy, but just as delicious. Lettuce, tomatoes, onions, with optional olives and banana peppers. A never ending supply of donair meat drowning, in a good way, in sweet sauce. I have never had a bad meal here, just big, delicious ones.

    Solid food. The donair meat was the highlight. Sliced by hand, moist and flavourful. Perhaps a little too chopped up while fried for my liking but the taste was unchanged. The sweet sauce was tasty. They had a good assortment of vegetables including canned mushrooms which were better than I thought they would be. I observed that if you were ordering a burger they would fry the onions and mushrooms for you if you wanted. Nice touch. I would come back if in the area.

    I thought Id stop in here for lunch as my coworker could not stop raving about how these were "best donairs in the city" Meh Id hardly call them "the best" but I will say that they're the biggest I've seen in the city. One thing I found kind of gross though was how greasy the meat was... When I got to the bottom of the donair all the grease had solidified and become and orange paste... So the last few bites ended up in the trash lol. I will say however the staff were very nice, and the dining room was exceptionally clean. Plus it looked very classy! (A classy donair joint, who knew eh?)

    When you just want a good donair, this is the place. The place is very clean, has lots of seating, the portions are generous and prices are very fair. And the donair meat is dang good! It's a bit in the middle of no where in the east side but worth the drive.

    Really good quality burgers for a great price. It's that simple, which is why Let's Smash is my…read morefavourite Edmonton burger stop. Burgers are made fresh and smashed just right, not too thin that they crumble at the edges or fall apart in the bun. All burgers are two patty minimum. The most basic burger costs $12, and comes with cheese and a ton of fresh veggie and traditional toppings. A burger combo is $17 and includes a drink. Upgrade to a poutine or a milkshake for a couple of bucks. Their fries are really good, chunky and made fresh. Haven't tried the milkshakes. Proper old-school burger joint food. Compare with fast food and other small local burger places. A quarter pounder at McD's costs $8 these days, crazy. At places like Woodshed or Foxburger, you can't get just a burger, and prices start at $14 (single patty no cheese) or even $20. Drinks are extra. I love these local burger places too, but the burger quality is similar in my opinion, and I really like the style of burger served here. Let's Smash has the Goldilocks "just right" kind of smash, the burger buns hold up to the contents, and the toppings are fresh and flavourful though not as fancy as other places. One time though, I had a burger here that was topped with gyro toppings, specifically the pickled veggies, and it was delicious. We always sit in, there's plenty of seating space, and usually some soccer or European music contests on the TV at a low volume. Service is efficient, order at the counter and have a seat. No alcohol service means less trouble, which is nice for lunch or early supper on Jasper Ave. We generally get friendly service and have never felt forgotten or neglected for the steady stream of delivery drivers.

    Delicious burger! Served with fries. Was prepared in 7 minutes. The ambiance is pop music.read more
