New owner, same great donairs. Ask for some sauce on the side! They’re going hard on marketing.

Oct 30/24 - Just had a great meal at Samirs. They have soup now. OMG that salad was big. It was overflowing the container. I had to tap out. Love the garlic dressing.

Excellent service, very friendly but food was meh. Donair very salty and hummus on the felafel was very sour and over powering. All the veggies were very fresh though so that was a plus. All and all everything averages out to a 3 star rating from me.

Food was ok, not as authentic as hoped for. Only had beef on rotisserie. Tables and washroom clean, hostess was pleasant.

Used to be great. But the last 3 times they couldnt get the order right, even when it was written down in front of them. Screwing up the order once or twice, no problem. But 3 times in a row from the same server says a lot about the lack of trained staff. Sorry but I wont be returning.

Since under new ownership..the food I ordered a few days ago was horrible! The donairs had hardly any lettuce or other veggies and very little sauces! Had also ordered 2 Caesar salads which were put in same bag as donairs, both salad containers had opened & the salad all over donairs and plastic bag!! I cant see this business lasting long! Definitely not the great donairs when it was under previous ownership!! NEVER WILL ORDER AGAIN!!

These are the most authentic Halifax-style donairs Ive ever had outside of the East Coast! The staff is super friendly and the portions are very large. If you want your donair a certain way (more sauce, more veggies) all you have to do is ask.

If you don t know what a donair is, and you enjoy terrible food, this is the spot for you!

My girlfriend and I have been goin there for a few years until our last experience. On our last visit this past Friday around 4-430 in the afternoon. The lady working behind the counter greeted us as we walked in. We then proceeded to watch her fumble around aimlessly for 5-10 minutes trying to finish the previous order. In this time another lady walked into the restaurant. After completing the first order she then informed us that she will be helping the other lady first. I have never in my life had anything like this happen anywhere, let alone a small local business trying to compete with the corporate giants that make up the fast food industry. We walked out and went to subway, much better service we were in and out in under 10 min and it tasted great i highly recommend subway.

Dont like posting negative reviews. Each time I have ordered, (could also be really unlucky)..... it was bad. Brown, soggy, turned lettuce in my donair made me so sick I threw up in the middle of the bite as I tasted it. Took my donair apart to find the lettuce was super bad. I cant fix that... No one can fix that I cant eat donairs currently anymore, thank you....

If the donairs were prepared fresh I would consider giving it 5 stars but unfortunately. I have not seen this. All already pre-portioned out and kept in a warming pot. Interior is a bit outdated but food is good and fair prices.

Not sure how you re a donair shop when you struggle with making a quality donair. Agreed that if you score this donair shop more than two stars you have never had a quality donair. Pita from a bag, meat out of a slow cooker and microwaved and put together w basic toppings. Not grilled to warm it through. Wrapped and held together w scotch tape? Yup. I was hungry and ate it. Won t go back.

Delicious beef donair at Lunch today, very satisfying and decent value. Will definitely be back!

If you like this place its because you have never eaten a good donair before. I would never go back. The hack job done on the meat was made worse by the fact that they reheat the meat in a microwave instead of on a grill. The wrap was I placed on a warmer but not for nearly long enough and did I not help to soften the wrap at all. My donair was still stone cold when I ate it which was not appetizing at all. Theres no options to make a combo, which was dissappeared as well. The sizes are odd and there would have been no way I could eat the next size up but the size I got left me hungry. They advertise being fast, and they are, because they are putting out a sub par product. Would rather have to wait longer and get a better product. Will definitely go back to Antonios instead.

Stopped in on my way to Calgary. Ordered a jumbo beef with a bottled pop -$15. The donair was flavourful and they did a good job wrapping it so it didnt make a mess everywhere. It was only after I started eating that I realized they had 2 bigger sizes: monster and jumbo. Maybe next time.
