    Tasty Shawarma
    Terry C.

    Came across this restaurant and decided to give it a try. They had 2 shawarma for $10.50 so that sounded reasonable. Ordered a chicken and beef shawarma, non spicy. There was an extra .50cents for the beef. The sign didn't say the special was only for chicken and I wasn't told of the extra charge, only knew once I got the bill. No big deal, but would have been nice to know. The food took a while to receive, I think they were cooking a new batch of food so there was a bit of a wait time for myself and others. The place had a steady stream of patrons at 3pm. You do not know what they are putting on it as it is all assemble in the back. The pita was nice and well toasted, not too thick. The filling was onions, lettuce, pickles, sesame sauce, etc. All good. The chicken was good and tasty. The beef was a bit chewy and a bit lacking in flavour (like it was boiled) per the person whose option this was. Overall, it was good. I could have this again if I am in the area.

    I came here couple times for their 2 for $11.50 deal. I got their beef and chicken shawarma wrap and it always hits the spot and doesn't break the bank. Nice little place and will definitely come back again

    Got the beef shawarma plate and lamb shawarma plate. The portion size is decent for the price and hits the spot. I like that it opens until pretty late for those late night cravings.

    Tasty has become my go to for cheap but delicious shawarma! Their food is alwaysss hot and fresh. Chicken is never too dry with the right amount of sauce and when I ask for more pickles, they go to town with the pickles! The best part is they have a two shawarma sandwich special for $10! That's unbeatableeeee

    This place is great! The quality of food has never disappointed me. Their chicken is always fresh, soft, well-cooked, and very juicy. Their sauces are flavourful and rich. However, they do not put enough chicken in their chicken shawarma platters.

    I've been here a long time ago and decided to try to try it right when I got in the place was empty they had a deal two shawarma for 9.50 not bad I got the chicken shawarma spicy to be honest I thought it was going to be bad because of the lack of customer but it wasn't to bad chicken wasn't dry which is good but they still got to make a lot of improvements such as the decor in the restaraunt it's like I'm in a graveyard very depressing I like a restaraunt packed with people but I understand the owners are hard workers hope they take my review into consideration and make the improvements

    I am no Shawarma expert but I can tell how a shawarma should look and taste like with my limited experience. Tasty Shawarma's version is just nasty. I think they have it all wrapped up like a taco pie on purpose so no one can see what they put inside, which is hardly anything. I know $10 for tax for 2 sounds cheap but you really get what you paid for. I could only finished the Chicken one but just could not get myself to eat the Beef one because it was just so dry. Skip the shawarma sandwich for sure. Maybe other options is better? But I won't be wasting my time and money to bet on that.

    Dunno why the low stars. Delicious, fresh, and great value. Got 2 chicken shawarma sandwiches and they were loaded - didnt skimp on the chicken like other places. Only downside is You cant see them prepare it. But as long as its made right - who cares. Will come again!

    Quick service, fresh food, true that you can't see how they put the wrap together. 2 for 9.50 + tax good price

    2 of these schawarmas for $9.50+ tax

    This wonderful Syrian restaurant stands above most of the many Kebab shops in Pickering/Ajax. They…read moreoffer the standard Kebab shop fare (beef and chicken shawarma, falafel, and variously spiced skewers), but all with a unique, presumably Syrian, spin. My husband's falafel contained a variety of vegetables, and the wrap was toasted to crispy perfection. My son ordered the smoky chicken shawarma, which comes in a smoky, spicy wrap. He said that it was delicious, and unlike any other he's tried with its savory, smoky flavor. My daughter and I each ordered the Aleppo Kebab plate with rice. What a lot of food!! The hummus was so garlicky and well-seasoned, not the bland, pasty stuff that one sometimes encounters. The toum (garlic sauce) was a splendid accompaniment to the smoky beef. I really enjoyed my spicy bread (a flatbread that is dipped in some kind of sauce and then fried, I think). My spice-averse daughter was able to order regular flatbread. The Aleppo Kebab itself was quite mildly and subtly spiced, very flavorful, and exuded the smoky aromas of the grill. The rice, as it is in most middle and near Eastern restaurants, was superb, and flavoured with tumeric. It was a lot of food, and I have enough left over for lunch tomorrow. If you order the platters, I recommend That you order some extra bread to dip into the sauces. They offer a lot of sauce with these platters, all on the side in separate compartments of the take-out container. We were there for take-out, but it is a nice, family oriented atmosphere. The counter was busy all the time, with multiple people coming in for pick up orders. Despite that, the friendly staff takes the time to describe the food choice and make recommendations for future visits. And there will be future visits, at least by me! The parking lot is busy at certain areas, but there is plenty of parking just beyond the restaurant. If you are in the area and are hungry for some Middle Eastern food, the keep Aleppo Kebab in mind!

    We went just before New Year's to Aleppo Kebab for a meal…read more We were to meet up with my family for a meal that night but the roads and weather were really bad and we had to turn around We ended up at Aleppo Kebab that night Another great meal that came through last minute We started with their hummus Really really good I had the large fattoush salad I had probably about half of it and had to take the rest home My hubby's meal...:the Aleppo Kebab meal ....he got a ton of food I stole some of his fries Service was friendly and prompt throughout Will definitely come back again for a meal here
