This is probably the BEST review I have ever written but OMG WOWWW!! First of all we worked with MONA for a catering order and she is an absolute GEM, Mona is honestly a talented, sweet, hilarious jewel who was so professional and just INCREDIBLE overall. She put us at ease and we just trusted her from the get-go and provided a whole new standard to quality customer service. I do not know this woman nor have I ever met her but she was sooooo easy to deal with throughout this process that I felt I knew her forever. NOW let's get into the QUALITY of the food/dishes AND the presentation, one word, STUNNING. Everything was presented in a very elevated and custom fashion, suuuuper clean presentation, not to mention the food was mouth watering delicious, definitely one of the best middle eastern food we've had, and we're Egyptian so that's saying a lot. I honestly can't say enough great things and could probably go on and on! Lastly, unbeatable prices for the QUALITY and the QUANTITY. So glad I found them, we're customers for life. read more

I came in here for an early dinner between work periods and was greeted in a friendly way from the staff. They were very helpful, diligent, and personable. I ordered the chicken shawarma platter and was greeted with a large amount of tasty food. I don't know if it ate it all properly. Don't get me wrong, it all made its way into my belly, but I wasn't sure if I needed to make my own shawarma with the bread, rice, chicken, hummus, pickles, and onions. I tried it making it and ate the items separately. I think the price was great for the volume of food I received and the service provided. I'm a fan and will return. read more

Not bad shawarma, pretty average. The hummus was great, perfect texture. The chicken was sliced a little thin, and didn't have the crusty char we love from shawarma. The fattoush was tasty. The kefka was a little over cooked. Good portions sizes. read more

I love Shawarmas and while i was driving around south London area and had driven by the sish big place. The place is large and the cooks were at same time cooking and getting the food out as fast as the waiter could get it out. At the beginning I was alittle uneasy but the place was really busy for a Wednesday evening. Place seems popular among the people living around area. Most were eating there, but also others were coming to take shawarmas to go actually Atleast 10 or more in my 1hr their. We ordered our shawarmas and they were really tasty. But we enjoyed the most was the garlic sauce, the guy gave to us. We even had to ask for extra and hot sauce, hehe. I have to always order hummus everytime however this time changed it up to Bubba ganoush (smoked egg plant hummas), just added extra olive oil and more hot sauce, broke my nice warm Arabic bread which I think is made on side. Delish ^^ He - the whole staff, very friendly. What seem to be the guy in charhe was telling me the whole story of the restaurant and was also interested how i knew so much about Middle Eastern foods, after 10min chat i had made a friend for life! I highly recommend this place, just wish I could find more time to explore his menu more!! Pros - Staff, food, cleanliness, menu selection and willingness to help. Cons - none noticed but will update again later I'm sure. read more

Times Visited: 4 times Customer service: Not professional at all. People that work there have no clue what customer service means but they are nice people they just dont know how to interact with customers. Food: Usually good and fresh. They offer shawarma, manakeesh(middle-eastern pizza) , and wings. read more

Seriously, who doesn't like pitas? When I walk into a place known for Levantine cuisine nothing makes me happier then seeing meat on a spit, and those gigantic pillows of warm, freshly baked pitas positively steaming with happiness. The Shish is such stuff pita dreams are made. Friendly service, short wait times when we were there but they were not normal lunch/dinner time hours. I'd stand in any sort of line for this place so Barakat, watch out. Such delights that were sampled were the Tabbouleh, Fattoush, and various shawarmas along with copious amounts of freshly baked pitas. I was told that this is the closest to authentic Lebanese as it gets, with the Tabbouleh recipe almost mirroring what "mom used to make" back in the day. My only wish is that the Toum (garlic sauce) and Hummus were in bigger containers, but that might just be a personal issue with my own insatiable obsession for both items. Someday I'll hit up the bakery, if I can ever walk out of there without busting at the seams full of great food. read more

Went to The Shish, because I've never heard of it before, and wish I never heard about it. Their food was below average. The waitress couldn't explain the menu properly. The meat was dry, the rice was over spiced, too much lemon in hummus, and the lettuce was untouchable (it had a rotten taste to it). It was a waste of money. I should've walked out when I saw that the only people in there were the employees. read more

We went here hungry enough for anything to taste good. We went around 2 o clock and were the only customers in the restaurant. A super friendly waitress took our order. Here is the review of my order. 10 piece wings, medium- medium was completely mild, cold-warm, and did not taste fresh. Burger plate- driest burger pattie I had in my life. For 11.99 I was expecting at least a decent eatable burger. Beef shawarma plate- shwarama meat extreamtly over seasoned and cold. The lettuce was bitter and seemed rotten. Waitress switched shifts and we asked the new girl for pita bread, we never received it. Beef shawarma wrap- decent, but no where near as good as some other cheaper places in town. Total about $40 Not coming back. read more

I love anything on a pita, so I felt excited to try this place out. The woman who took my order was very rude, when she made my wrap, she only wore one glove (hadn't washed her hands after handling my money), and I overheard her being rude to the customer ahead of me. Two people behind the counter were aruging loudly. My chicken shawarma was tasty (albeit a bit greasy), but the experience was awful. Lots of other great shawarma places in the city I'd rather give my business to, which both taste great, and have wonderful service. read more

The Shish catered a work event I was at in January and it was the best Lebanese food I have ever tasted. A coworker said it was very authentic, tasted like what her grandmother and mother would have made. I have ordered take-out for my family twice now and it has been excellent. I believe they have recently changed ownership. Based on the other reviews, it has improved 100%! read more

I've gotten take out falafel sandwiches from this place on numerous occasions. It is true that the staff aren't always warm and friendly but they do perk up after a few compliments on the food :) I love LOVE the falafel sandwiches they make me....some are better than others, probably depends who's stuffing them. The grape leaves are very good as well but they always seem to run out of them after I've ordered and paid for them. Last time they gave me the baba ghanoush to replace the grape leaves I'd ordered and it was so so yummy. They gave me tons of fresh pita too! So good! Also I usually have to wait a bit for service but it is always worth it. read more

I go here often for lunch as its close to work and the chicken shawarma and kibbeh are very tasty. Portions are a reasonable size. Staff has always been very friendly. It's often busy at lunch time when I go, but I still get served in a timely manner. read more

Best middle eastern food in London, ON. I could eat the mixed shawarma platter every day for lunch. Friendly staff, clean location. Highly recommended. read more

Move over Barakat...We have a new player in town! Our favourite shawarma place. We usually split a chicken shawarma platter with fattoush salad or baba ganoush on the side (both fantastic). They also serve speciality bakery items spanning both the savoury and sweet spectrum, made in-house! They make their own pita bread in a brick oven, it comes out warm, fresh and soft. Staff is very friendly, service is fast and the prices are fair. Next time you're in the mood for some tasty Mediterranean food, make the trip to south London and try out The Shish, you won't leave disappointed. read more

Fresh, delicious, and authentic Middle Eastern food. Received amazing service from Najeeb, behind the counter, who really helped me with my huge take out order for the whole family on a busy Saturday night. He took the time to explain how food was prepared and what it came with like Hummus, garlic dip and all with a friendly smile. I am definitely going back as this will be my new "go-to" HEALTHY fast food place. You must try the kabobs with rice and salad as well as the kibee and tabouli. Bonus... the kids loved their chicken and beef Shawarma plates!! The menu is incredible and if you need help... just ask for Najeeb! ‍‍‍ Fast/Healthy/Yum read more

I am a regular at The Shish. They have lots of great food for great prices. The staff is friendly and helpful and the decor is great.
