I was on a one day trip to PEI and by coincidence i had an absolutely wonderful experience at this authentic Lebanese restaurant . From the moment I walked in, the owners greeted me with warmth and genuine smiles. The food was beyond words; each dish was a delightful journey through the authentic flavors of Lebanon. The service was impeccable, and the owners were incredibly friendly and attentive. Thank you for this exceptional experience that combined outstanding hospitality with irresistible cuisine. I highly recommend a visit! I personally can’t wait to come back and sorry i was too hungry forgot to take pictures 😝

Love that they have such a big gluten free menu. I always get the gluten free fish and chips and they are sooo crunchy and good. I’ve also dived into the Lebanese platters and love how tasty and fresh everything is. I recommend this to anyone looking for delicious and healthy food.

The three course meal of lentil soup, beef shawarma and baklava was excellent. Their friendly service and courtyard area with overhead grape vines (fruit in season for our meal) made the meal and atmosphere most enjoyable. We were most fortunate to explore and find this lovely spot in Charlottetown, P.E.I.

Definately, one of the most delicious Lebanese foods I ever tried. Besides its fantastic food, Fateemah was above and beyond to make our experience a memorable one! I highly recommend their keebeh, the lamb kabob, and the baklava. It is to die for! 10 out of 10! Thank you so much, Fateemah! ❤

The food was good, but the Service was very bad, the lady who served us didnt knew what she was talking, and changed us so much extra money in the name of Service, the food might be good, but people wont come again if the staff is like that, my friends and I are never going here again, the lady even forces us to order more, that it was not enough, just so she could Earn extra money, we understtood why when the food arrived, the quantity was so so less compared to the price of the dish

*Such a great experience with amazing service* The steak was cooked to perfection and OMG the garlic sauce was to die for. If youre looking for a baklava bursting with flavours you have found it here. The server was very friendly and such a gem. Would highly recommend Dietary restrictions: I am someone who struggles with eating out due to having diabetes and they were able to accommodate my needs no problem!

The best Lebanese food Ive ever had!! The homemade lemonade was divine - with added mint and fresh fruit, I had the chicken shawarma plate and it was cooked perfectly with big portions. Homemade garlic sauce was a nice touch and we loved it so much we took a tub home as well as more baklavas. The baklavas were the best!! The service was impeccable - Fadia was so accommodating, warm, friendly and knowledgeable. She really took the time to get to know us and make us feel welcome to PEI. If youre ever in Charlottetown this place is a must!

I had the vegetarian combo (hummus, tabouli, falafel, moudadara, salad, pita) and it was excellent. Vegetarian options: They have a delicious veg combo! Dietary restrictions: I dont eat anything with legs or any cow cheese or milk and managed to eat a fully nutritious and delicious meal. The carnivores I was with raved about their kebabs. Everybody ate well! Kid-friendliness: There were children who were having a good meal and enjoying themselves.

We eat here often. Beautiful and delicious food, super friendly staff. Eating out is not cheap, especially for high quality food such as this. This the the pork Souvlaki. This plus shwarma wraps and apps for 4 will be $80 plus tips. But its comparable in price and much better that most places in Charlottetown. . Definitely worth a visit !

We had Shaddy s cater our wedding of 80 people, and they did an excellent job. Joseph was very professional, and the food was very tasty and well presented. All good was delivered on time and warm. He had warmers available to rent as well, to ensure food remains hot. All of our guests loved it, with many saying it was the best wedding meal they ve ever had. The cost was reasonable, much less than a full sit down meal with other island caterers. I didn t feel that there was a wedding tax that I experienced from other caterers. I would strongly recommend Shaddy s for your wedding or other large event! Dietary restrictions: Great options for everyone including vegans and celiacs.

Extremely bad experience. People are nice here in PEI. Thats why they got 4 stars. I came from montreal. Restaurant like this would not survive at all. Usuaully I dont leave bad comments. Unless... I dont even know what to say. Let me tell u my experience guys. And i hope the manager could see my comment as well and plz do some improvements otherwise u would never know your restaurant has so many problems remaining unfixed. First. We entered the place standing there and waiting to be served. One of their waitresses actually saw us standing there right in a open space but surprisingly she ignored us. My gf wanted to leave but i insisted. To see how long we shall wait till got treated like normal clients instead of baggers. We waited another 3mins and finally we got settled down. After I finished my order. I waited for like another 40 mins (I noticed that there werent many of clients by the time that I went there ) and the meal was also far from what I expected. I ordered something named by platters, turned out that 70% of it was fries. I wonder what took u guys so long to make such a plate of fries. My gf is a professional cook who works in PEI. Even she couldnt believe it and wondered why they mixed up beef sauce with chicken. And also its also very expensive.(especially for a plate of which the majority was fries) However, I was not planning to leave any bad comments. But what happened next after lunch really made me mad. The running water was not allowing me to wash my hands. Cuz it only came out HOT water and they didnt leave any notice at all. The water was extremely hot i promise u guys which almost hurt me. Evidently, this is an appearance of the lack of management. I hope u guys could see my comment and plz make some changes in the upcoming days.

This place is seriously underrated, and of all my restaurant jaunts, this is in my top 5 favourites in the world. I used to live in PEI and therefore used to live at this restaurant! The chicken schwarma is SO SO SO good!! And the garlic paste is the best. I have not been to a better Lebanese restaurant (even though I have tried to find another one) anywhere, ever. I think why its not as busy is because its not as fancy looking, but dont let that deceive you because the food is amazing. Do yourself a favour and eat here!
