325 Westney Rd S, Ajax, ON L1S 6M5, Canada
Busy, casual haunt with Arabic comfort food including manakeesh, falafels & shawarma plates.
It was my friend and I’s first time trying Laymoon. As per the chef’s request, here is our review. We pleasantly enjoyed our mains which were the fish shaped pizza and shawarma bread. My friend quenched her thirst on some mint lemonade and I enjoyed my mango juice. Our server was kind enough to give us complimentary baklava. All in all, chef’s kiss 😘
I had an amazing experience at this Lebanese restaurant! SJ, our server, was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was absolutely delicious, with vibrant, authentic flavors in every dish. The mezze platter was a perfect start, and the grilled meats were cooked to perfection. Excellent service and mouthwatering food made this an unforgettable dining experience! Highly recommend!
Food and service both were good. They have ample seating space and good service. very less crowded and peaceful place. I went afternoon.
If you’re craving authentic Middle Eastern cuisine that bursts with flavour, look no further than Laymoon. From the moment you step inside, the warm ambiance and enticing aromas set the stage for a truly unforgettable dining experience. The dishes at Laymoon are a celebration of Middle Eastern culinary traditions, prepared with precision and care. The falafel had a delightful crisp exterior with a tender, herbaceous center that tasted freshly made. The highlight, however, was the chicken shawarma- it was so juicy and was spiced and cooked to perfection. Laymoon isn’t just a restaurant—it’s an experience. The authenticity and depth of flavor in every dish are a testament to the chefs’ skill and passion for their craft. I’ll definitely be returning, and I can’t recommend it highly enough!
We tried the Dip Trio, Falafel, Zaatar Manakeesh, and the Mix Shawarma Plate—and honestly, everything we ate was outstanding. The freshly baked pita that comes with most dishes is some of the best we’ve had in the Durham region. The ambience is casual, with a cozy café vibe perfect for hanging out with friends, and they also offer hookah if you’re into that. The service is super friendly and welcoming. Just a heads-up—they don’t provide complimentary water, so either bring your own bottle or be prepared to purchase it.
Had the shish tawook plate at Laymoon Restaurant, and it was fantastic! The chicken was juicy and flavorful, cooked to perfection. Definitely a must try!
The food was tasty and came out hot and fresh. I gave the service a 4 🌟 rating because the service was a bit slow at the start. We would definitely come again to try other stuff on the menu.
This place draws inspiration from lemons. I really liked everything about this place. Great place to enjoy food while enjoying the company of your friends. The staff are very enthusiastic. The food was very fresh and delicious. Not being familiar with the cuisine, the staff provided excellent recommendations in a congenial manner. The food is very filling and flavourful. Suggest sharing in order to try the various foods. They also offer hookah. They have QR ordering but they also have a tablet with a menu, so do not worry. Their Pita is a fluffier style of bread, not flat bread nor dense not thin walled. My favorite type that I have only found here, after eating a similar type someone home made. It is heavenly with dips or olive oil.
Popped into this restaurant while running an errand in Ajax. Reviews looks good so I got some dinner to go. I ordered the chicken shawarma dinner and a mixed shawarma dinner to go. Service was pleasant and food was pretty good. The chicken was somewhat dry but ok. The problem is have is the state of the washroom. FILTHY! So gross. Smelly. Do better Laymoon. The state of the washrooms creates concerns about the cleanliness of the kitchen!
Great place for food and Shisha. They dont rush you and often check on you. Highly recommend, best Shisha spot in Pickering/Ajax
Highly recommend Laymoon. Food tasted amazing and very authentic. Really enjoyed the decor and music. The service was very fast and friendly. Would definitely go again!
SJ was an amazing server and the food was amazing! Would definitely come back as the atmosphere was amazing!
One of the best Manager and staff Hazem, humble guy and great shawarmas
Food is some of the best I have ever had. Literally everything tastes like heaven. Hamza provided amazing service as well. Will highly recommend.
Dietary restrictions: Halal Food
Wow! Super authentic and tasty food, hot and fresh! Absolutely delicious!! We had the best service, Hamza was amazing!!! Vegetarian options: Great vegetarian options!
New favourite restaurant. Food is amazing. Staff are wonderful. Loareen was a great waitress. Will definitely be back
Been here before and the food was great. Came back with the baby and couldn t sit because of the sheesha smoking in the open space where kids sit. It s disappointing they didn t create a proper space for people to enjoy smoking and others with children. Won t be coming back.
Really good food and customer service. Highly recommend the chicken shwarma!
This beautiful Middle Eastern restaurant in Ajax is a fantastic addition to the area. Their shawarmas are generously filled with beef or chicken, and the ambiance is lovely, featuring a spacious high ceiling. They also have a nice patio that will be perfect for summer dining. While the prices are slightly higher than typical Middle Eastern restaurants, the quality of the food justifies it.
Solid service, the beef shawarma was elite and they got shisha a nice chill spot
This place hits home for me outstanding service .. my favourite was the server serving sheesha .. this place is my go to from now
Its a nice & cozy spot to enjoy your breakfast and snacks. The staff is overly warm and friendly, which will make you feel at home. Food
We have been here a couple times now since we wanted to give them a chance. Consistently, their service is cold and distant, and their food is mediocre at best. It doesn t help that they charge for water, and are very inflexible with accommodating any sort of dietary requests.
We ordered the mixed grill plater, it was amazing and very filling for 2 adults and 2 kids
We ordered takeout..Very disappointed in this. Felt like I was eating cardboard. We have had this before dining in but this time they really did not make this well.. oh and it was burnt.

Food had good flavour and portions were large but quite expensive compared to similar places. No tap water available, you have to pay for water bottles.
Came here on a Sunday while there was a 60 person party going on, among other customers. Despite it being busy, the service was impeccable, and food was great too!
We had a great experience! The service was top tier and food was amazing. Our waiter S was probably one of the best waiters we had! Highly recommend requesting him when you go.
Its good, try the lemon mint ask for extra sugar!! So good sahtain Food
Amazing food! Great atmosphere. Nothing can beat their shawarma platter
Very delicious food. Good quantities, authentic food, good atmosphere, and nice people.
Nothing beats there SHWRMA PLATES
Spent 14 years in Dubai UAE, atmosphere gave pure Arabian vibes, remind me Gulf food taste Food was delicious and fresh Hummus should have more better with Olive touch Otherwise 09/10
Great tasty food for a reasonable price range for all family members .
We went to this restaurant la moon, Ajax location for dinner and ordered bbq chicken dip platter & drinks. We have not experienced such an awful , racist customer service so far anywhere in Canada . The service was provided by a female ( tall, full on Botox with top hair bun) sorry did not get her name was so bad and she never bothered to serve anything for us , food was bad as well! not sure if she did something to the food and the drinks we ordered. Never go to this place dinner , just go for for hookah don t expect any service. We have been to this restaurant many times but today was the worst experience and we are never coming back or will recommend to anyone !
Good service and nice food and beautiful inside . Especially Felipe took care of us well

This place is so cute! Highly recommend for a quick bite or shisha. F
Excellent place for affordable nice meals and atmosphere that is family friendly and cozy
We go there for every big event or when we are treating a guest, great servers great food.
We visited LEYMOON yesterday with a group of 25, including kids, and had a very disappointing experience. The chicken we ordered was as hard as a rock completely inedible. When we raised the issue, the staff refused to replace it, claiming it was our fault for arriving late and that the chicken had been sitting in the oven. To make things worse, they offered us a complimentary tea, but it was just reused tea bags with hot water. Needless to say, we were left unimpressed and won t be returning.
Dry chicken the waiters response to this was dry because we arrived late basically trying to blame it on us they could of reheated instead of responding like that, as I said I did not like the food or the waiter.
Very bad food and disaster service!!You will get only rock-hard chicken which you cannot chew or swallow!!!They were saying it was our mistake to arrive a few minutes late, so they had to keep the chicken in the oven until it burned! What a strange excuse!!!They took away our food for checking and never returned anything eventhough they admit the bad quality!!!Never recommend this place!
The Shawarma pizza here is amazing. Its such a unique dish. I havent seen it anywhere else. The service is also amazing.
This place has great shisha and amazing drinks. I really enjoyed the strawberry mango shake and the arabic tea was amazing. The service here is also amazing. Aya was wonderful and made great recommendations. We will definitely be back.
Great customer service, amazing staff. Very sanitary place and if you want to have a good time come here. F

The food was amazing and it was tasty. The shisha is so good. The customer service was good too. Highly recommen coming here. F
My first experience here was amazing! The staff were super friendly from the moment you walk in. The service was fast. The place was clean even though it was pretty full. The shisha was on point, the food was even better! The shawarma pizza bread is a must. We ve been talking about it for days. Even the guy who was walking around putting coals on our shisha was super nice and friendly. My friend whispered, I wish I could get some honey with my tea. The female staff overheard and brought him a small container. Super nice! When we were getting ready to pay, we were surprised how little we spent. Everything was above and beyond. Highly recommend for a visit. Will be coming. Back again soon.
It was an amazing experience. Went out with my family last night. The food, service and atmosphere was all 10/10. What surprised me is that we had to pay for the WATER !! $2 for a bottle !! They did not have any other water....that was insane to me. Next time carry your own water guys !!
Amazing food! Friendly service! Best virgin mojito ever!
Amazing food & amazing service. They also have a cute outdoor patio.
We are usually visiting that restaurant with our friends and family , like the service and food

One of the best Mediterranean food we had. Everything is delicious, the chicken is so tender and cooked to perfection. Lekaa is so friendly and informative. It takes time( because they cook to perfection) but it s totally worth the wait. No complaints on anything. Made my day with the food.

The food was amazing! We got the dip trio and all of the dips were really good! It was the perfect size for two people. I also got the mixed platter with a mix of fries and rice the kafta was my favourite but the other meats were really good too. The Arabic ice cream was also a great way to end the dinner there are a generous amounts of pistachios in there. Dietary restrictions: Halal
Delicious food and friendly service. At times the servers mentioned bringing something but forgot, however they are apologetic when that happens.
Amazing service, incredible dining experience, and vibes are just good vibes :)
Great Shisha, vibes and staff!
Delicious shawarma !! Highly recommend the falafel
Seesha was not good at all , not worth at all Not worth going for seesha. One of the worst places I have visited in Canada as per all aspects , service seesha quality everything

Good local Durham place for middle eastern vibes. Decent food overall, chicken shawarma is what I usually get. And decent Shisha.
On Vacation and alot of my friends recommend for me to come try Laymoon Restaurant ,,and by far 10 out of 10 amazing service and delicious food, Thank u so much Laymoon Restaurant. I will definitely be back!!
Great place and service.
Great food !
Love the food and the atmosphere. Thanks guys!
Excellent customer service . Really amazing
Great food, I got the mixed platter it was such a good portion size for the price. Trio dip was a great app, will definitely come back.
Service was great, flavours were actually phenomenal. Pound for pound this place gives you a lot of food per price point. We went on a Sunday night and service was top. I would suggest the chicken shawarma bread as it was baked to perfection. My kid also loved it and he s very picky. It was a blessing to come and will be back!
A great environment with friendly staff. The food was fantastic! Flavourful and amazing portions :) Will be coming back for sure!! Vegetarian options: Falafel is offered and they also have seafood options - salmon & BBQ shrimp!
The first time at this place and had a good experience. We had the trio dip, and I got the chicken shawarma plate with half fries and rice. For the price you pay, the portion sizes are good.
Food was timely and the staff was super nice.
Terrific, Friendly service! Even more Terrific food! (Had the mixed shawarma plate)! Food
So far the most authentic shawarma place in gta
Food was really good. After a long time I enjoyed Caesar Salad in Canada. Seems like a nice place for hookah, but at the same time, that is a downside as well. The hall sometimes gets filled with the hookah smell if your table gets surrounded by hookah users. Parking: Parking has some reserved spots and not too many at that.
Laymoon offers a delightful taste of Middle Eastern cuisine with fresh, flavorful dishes and warm, welcoming service. Perfect for both quick bites and relaxed meals, it s a go-to spot for authentic flavors in a cozy setting.
Great food, excellent service
Splendid service and food 10/10 experience
Great food! Would definitely recommend!
Amazing service and good the swarma is the best I have had and also strawberry mango juice was good
Bomb food with great customer service!
Amazing service will come again 10/10
Amazing shisha, food, and staff. Felipe and other employees are very welcoming. Definitely would recommend this place.
The food, service and atmosphere of Laymoon were all great. It is a great place to come with family and friends. A middle east oasis in Ajax and now a neighborhood favorite for us.
The food is amazing! Service is great! Absolutely loved everything, sauses, flauvours! Staff are really awesome. Really deserves a 5 stars!!
Great service and Felipe in particular helped out a lot
Felipe was great. Thank you for the excellent service.

Tried chicken and beef shawarma; flavor explodes on every bite. Ambience is welcoming too.
Very good place for family and friends
Great food and friendly service. We ordered manakeesh, tabouleh, shish tauok, kafta sandwich, and the three dip platter. They were all delicious and the taste was authentic. The staff were courteous and attentive. Laymoon is highly recommended!
