Absolutely delicious. We got a falafel and chicken donair and a Greek salad. The green salad is probably the best Greek Salad I’ve ever had from a restaurant!

I'm no donair expert but the beef donair was probably the best I have eaten to date. This was a meal in itself but my Mama didn't raise a quitter and I destroyed it all. Out of sheer curiosity if the chicken tastes just as good, I'll be back for more.

These were the best donairs we have had in years. They were so delicious and huge. The greek salad was yummy.

ordered the big mama Donair ... more like a open face taco if I call it that ... missing my toppings and can't eat without a bowl ... as I'm in a hotel this will be the last time I order from them $27 dollars down the drain ....

I'm always impressed with this place. They've become my new go too for poutines. The big mama poutine is amazing. Also amazing Greek salad. Very traditional and generous. No salad filler, just tomatoes, green peppers, red onion, black olives, cucumber and feta- likes it's supposed to be. Very friendly staff and big portions for the price. Great value. 👍🏻

Got the big mama donair and poutine. The donair was very good, veggies were crisp & fresh, big donairs. Didnt have to wait long for my order. The staff was really friendly. The poutine was also wicked, lots of cheese, and lots of gravy. The cheese curds and gravy had very good flavors. I will 100% be going again. This is a donair youve gotta try

Tried this franchise once again last week while I was visiting Fort St John. I have also visited the Airdrie location. Donair was very fresh and tasty. I also ordered fries with a side with gravy - amazing! Lastly, I love Greek salad and a lot of take out restaurants cheap out on the ingredients. This Greek salad was LOADED and extremely fresh! Would highly recommend. For those complaining about the donair being messy . I totally get it! but it s a donair, their always going to be slightly messy. Donairs are meant to be eaten out of the wrapping.. you peel the wrapper as you eat, making it less messy! Lol I noticed the big mama size donair is far more stuffed than the regular size. As an experienced donair eater, I ordered the regular size and loved every bit of it! Hope this review helps. Parking: Big parking lot, no problem with parking anytime or the day.

Sorry, WORST Donair I have ever had. My 1st and last visit. Friendly people, but 20 bucks for a regular donair and can of pepsi. Wow! I asked to check price. They forgot to mention the what kind of cheese do you want? alludes to its included. Nope! $2.50 extra. They just add it at the till. I know things are getting expensive, but it was piled with romaine lettuce and almost no tomato or onion, I am not even sure if it had the $2.50 cheese i paid for...lol...idk Just too much for what I got. I cant wait for Busters to open. This place will probably tank...Just saying!

Took almost a half hour for a Greek salad and donair. No table seating inside. Pita and tzatziki was fairly bland tasting. That being said, the Greek salad was probably the best Greek salad Ive ever eaten and the husband enjoyed his donair. Vegetarian options: Greek salad, falafel

Just make sure to dont order big mama-size donors, The way that they wrap it is so wrong I ordered it for take-out and then all the food was just in the plastic bag because that didnt wrap it well Food : 3/5

Chicken donair tasted and smelled like seafood. Absolutely disgusting and made me sick for the rest of the night.

Amazing donairs! been hearing so many good things from friends and family. Everywhere I go someone mentions how they ve had a donair from Big Mamas and that they did not dissapoint! Planning to order my staff takeout lunch from their every Friday!! If you haven t tried one yet I highly reccomend you check it out. P.S their TZATIKI sauce is something special!!

Tasted good. Friendly staff. 2 donairs with no sides, no drinks $40 seems a little steep lol.

December 22, 2022

I m really disappointed. It was recommended to me by somebody. The donair tasted good however, I ordered the largest size and added extra meat. It came to over 22$. I was expecting one monster of a donair. Instead I received a very small-average sized donair. Extremely disappointed. For that price you should be getting way more product. Terrible value for your money. Tasted good, but so small for what you re paying. Not worth it
