To be honest, well deserved five star. The beef was soft, tender fully cooked flavourful, they have everything fresh. The sauce were authentic. My experience, been very friendly. If you eat there hot and fresh you won’t regret. I wish I had taken some pictures to share. It’s new but they came fully prepared not gonna fall off easily.

People were friendly enough but I've had far better Turkish food. I asked for a platter with just shawarma, salad and rice - gluten free, no fries or wrap. I received this, with coated fries and a flour tortilla on the bottom and on the side too after specificly requesting none. They didn't have a menu available online or in store to order from. Can't comment on the food since it's inedible and too late to go back - set up is hard to view food being made. They also went to make chicken after I asked for beef. Hopefully things improve but I likely won't take the chance again.

Bayview Shawarma Turkish Cuisine is a gem on Bayview Avenue that you don’t want to miss! The shawarma and pides were absolutely fantastic, and the pizza was a delightful surprise. I was really impressed with everything I tried, and they definitely deserve a solid 5-star rating. The menu also features some tempting desserts that looked amazing, so I’m excited to try those on my next visit. I highly recommend this place to everyone—don’t pass it up!

The portions were awesome! The platter is HUGE so be prepared. They had cool Turkish drinks and the ingredients (notably the salad and vegetables) were very fresh 👌 I'd encourage them to explore creating their own in-house sauces (hot sauce and garlic sauce) since that makes a big difference when eating shawarma. The chicken was tender but some people might prefer more crispy chicken. The staff are very helpful and friendly. There is access to the washroom now which the previous Indian restaurant didn't have.

Bayview Shawarma is a must-try! The meat is incredibly tender, and the spices are perfectly balanced. Their shawarma wraps are packed with flavor, and the variety of sauces takes it to the next level. The restaurant is clean, the service is quick, and the prices are fair for the quality and portion sizes. Definitely recommend for anyone craving a delicious, satisfying meal!

There has never been a bad experience here, honestly a shawarma place is a great addition to the neighbourhood, not to mention the extremely friendly staff. The portions are very generous and reasonably priced, can t say I have eat in, but the atmosphere is cozy. If you are ever looking for a bite I would highly recommend this place

Overall the wraps where very impressive and stands out from all the dozens of shawarma places across the city. I wish I could have rated 4.5. They make/bake freshly each wrap in house which Ive never encountered before and not only tasty yet huge. Next came your selection of the usual sauces and veggies before the pile of sliced off typical shawarma chicken was put on and its a good amount... this wrap is huge and weighty. Hot sauce seemed hot and homemade. Next time Id ask for more sauces as it could use a bit more. The falafel balls were not our favourite for doneness and density. Lighter and more cook would be great. Well stick with the chicken wraps. Id have given a 5 star rating if 1: the process moved a bit faster. When ordering multiple wraps, or I can imagine when busy, I likely wouldnt stick around. 2: If the toasting of the finished wrap resulted in more crunch factor . We all found it too soft, can easily fall apart, so a purposeful multi-side toasting or grilling (like Boustan does) might send this to best shawarma wrap in the city. Very nice service experience, while slow, and Id overall highly recommend giving it a try in non busy hours especially if starving. Two people could easily split one wrap for a medium sized lunch.

Great portions of a wrap. Wish I got it toasted, but the ingredients were very fresh! The wrap looked homemade and thin so that was new. Lots of locals coming in to chit chat while ordering. Glad I checked out this local joint instead of a big chain.

Good but I don t see how it differs from any other shawarma place though the hospitality was nice. Ordered chicken shawarma. It was cut in half and could be easily 2 servings. Lebanese beverage was nice. I brought my own utensils for dine-in. Fork was needed to pick-up the bits.

First stop in and it s great Shawarma. Had chicken shawarma and will be back to try the others. They use a flat bread rather than a pita, like the flat bread more. Nice people behind the counter too. Will be back.

One of the best food that i had recently. Good food, good people. We shared a mix kebab plate for 3 and it was like good enough for 4-5 people. Highly recommended.

Ive had a lot of chicken shawarma wraps in my life and this place let me down. The layout of this place is awful--theres nowhere to stand without being in someones way. The first time I went here, I ordered a chicken shawarma wrap and only after they started making it they told me they were out of tahini and garlic sauce, so they substituted hummus. The wrap was dry (as you would imagine without sauce) and the tortilla tasted of raw flour. I went a second time to give them another chance, ordering the same wrap. This time, they had the sauces so everything seemed fine. However, the shawarma still didnt taste good. The tortilla had the same raw flour taste, the chicken was overcooked, dry, and full of gristle, and the sauces were not very flavourful. The other toppings were fine, but there was way too much chicken to get a proper mixed bite. The only value here is the price for the huge shawarma is a good deal, but only if youre looking for quantity over quality.
