Not one to write many reviews but I went in on a random Sunday night with my wife and we were blown away. The best pita we’ve ever had, not an exaggeration. Such fresh ingredients and great flavours. We had the spicy hummus with feta, chicken shawarma dinner and gyro dinner. Will be back 100%

Delicious home-cooked tasting food! Large portions that could be split into two. I usually order by phone and pickup. Chicken souvlaki and the beef kafta dinner meals are my go-to. Salad is always fresh and pita is delicious. The ladies working there are so sweet and kind! Highly recommend.

Very welcoming, tasty and comforting, have been several times! Variety of sweets, and lovely chicken skewers and chicken shawarma! I love the salad and the star of the show is the fresh falafels which can be ordered individually (but you’ll want more than one for sure!)

This place is hidden gem, i loveeeeeee it What i like that the salad i asked he chopped fresh, not like the other locations the have it a day before. Sooo yummy and tasty. The owner is very generous and the quantity of the food was a lot comparing to the other locations in the area with very competitive price, other than the patio sitting which i love. Highly recommended

The food was so amazing, tasty and very well presented. Everything was perfect ! The Greek salad was like anyone I ever tasted, simply delicious ! We had the big platter for 2 but you could eat 4 on it easily, as the portions are very generous. We will definitely go back ! And the owner and staff are SUPER NICE people ! You will love it !

I took my father here for our first time and we got the ultimate platter. Very good food and amazing staff. Very friendly and have a sense of humour. Of course we had to get a dessert, so we opted in for creme caramel and that was also very good! We will be back to try more items on the menu. Thanks everyone 👍🏽🙌🏽 Update: As soon as I walked in our server from last visit called out my name! It was a pleasant surprise 😁 love this place 🙏🏽

Husband and I found this little gems in the city of Milton and it was an amazing find. Staff was friendly and service was fast and great. The food was great. The chicken and lamb were marinated and freshly grilled to perfection. They were so moist and juicy. We requested to have our rice replaced with salad and it filled up the whole plate. This place is highly recommended and a definitely must return place. 👍🏻 Update (August 2024): Never knew that they have BBQ during summer time (you have to let them know ahead of time when you and your party will be having it) and it’s amazing as their other dishes. There’s a lot of food and it’s not only the delicious food but it’s also the friendly conversations we had with the great couple who owns this restaurant, their family, and the staff. See the pictures for the great food we were honoured enough to enjoy. Thank you!

Have been going here for a long time. Shawarma use to be huge ! And cheap. Now shawarma is smaller and they charge more. Another business that doesn t understand it s easier to keep a customer than to get a customer back. I now get the huge stuffed patty at IN YOUR FACE FOODS located in Milton for like 9.50$. And it s Amazing. Hope it stays this way.

Updating again after the rude response from the owner: of course, I wont be ordering again. My review wasnt insulting but your response was very rude. Ive supported your business for years as I know youre a small Muslim owned business, which is important to me. My review holds true. You didnt offer a viable solution, and you expressed frustration towards me for a problem I didnt cause. Updating my review. I order over door dash and a few times, they missed parts of the order. This last time I placed an order for pickup but ordered through doordash, they insisted they didnt have it but as soon as I walked out (over an hour after placing the order), I recieved a notification saying they canceled the order. Frustrating, unempathic, and didnt offer a solution.

Terrible service. I came in to place an order and saw them yelling at another customer because they couldnt find her order. Immediately left.

This place is a hidden gem! Weve tried many Mediterranean spots, but the flavors here are truly unique. The food is freshly made and has that comforting, homemade touch, as its a family-run business. Its a small,cozy restaurant, usually not too crowded, so the atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. This has become our new go to spot, and we plan to come back often.The prices are very reaosnable & impressive given todays inflation, which has made dining out more expensive. here we can afford to visit more frequently, unlike some other places where the high prices and extra charges make it a one-time experience. I highly recommend their mixed grill platter. The food is delicious you wont regret giving it a try! Even their green tea is fantastic. I only have good things to say about it!

We ordered catering for our son s first birthday party. All the food was delicious (chicken souvlaki, Greek salad, rice & lemon potatoes) all of our guests loved the food! We will be ordering again in the future. Everything was fresh, flavourful and the portions were large amount to serve everyone. Delivery was on time as well. Thank you!

Well I wanted to give a better review but can t cause the value for money isn t there. And you have to make your own gyro when you order the gyro dinner and of course there s next to zero taziki not even enough to make your gyro and absolutely not enough to eat anything else with it. For the price you should really be getting a decent amount of taziki. Like a cup not a table spoon. Too bad I hear the owner is a nice guy. $45 for 2 ppl to eat and it was raised from $12 to $18 as you can see from the pictures so annoying that I couldn t even get a decent amount of taziki now it ll waste away in the fridge

Very disappointed. The chicken kabob was half decent but the rice had the completely wrong flavor and tasted very off...maybe the tzatziki was no good as it didnt taste anything like tzatziki. Wont be back

Rude staff to customers and not know how to speak very rude with delivery guys Thanks for your reply, for your kind information I am not Uber Driver, when u were talking to Uber Driver I was there as well as a customer, and I saw how you have dealt with that driver. What did he ask you? He just asked you for the big polythene bag but as a reply you said if you wanna take it then take it, otherwise you can cancel it and told him to get out of the store. This is how you talk with your customers or other drivers and show your professionalism? I didn t want to say anything but i was shocked to see you dealing with driver just for polythene bag!!!! Very much disappointed.

Update: Ok i got the price wrong but that does not change the fact that you reduced the quantity of the chicken because its cheaper for lunch special? Disappointed with the lunch special chicken souvlaki. The price mentioned was $14.99 and I got two of them for take out which ended up to be $38.40. How? Also the chicken was so little its like they reduced the quantity. Not worth my money.

Let s be honest, the food quality in most restaurants these days is sub par so honestly, I don t expect much but I was BLOWN AWAY by this restaurant, from the friendly greeting as I entered, to the food quality, prices and very cute outdoor patio. I ordered the Gyro dinner, the chicken souvlaki dinner, falafel & Calamari. I grew up in an Egyptian family, I ve tried hundreds of different falafels but the ones I tried today, were the best I ve ever eaten, omg, I hope my mom and aunts don t ever read this but seriously? delicious!!! Gyro meat was tender and seasoned to perfection, along with everything else. Also, the Calamari was really good! Actually tasted like it was from the sea and not tough & chewy. Food portions were huge for the prices!! Had leftovers. Also, I love the effort they put into their patio, totally adorable! Thank you for such an amazing lunch!! We will definitely be back.

I think the food here is delicious, I just moved to Milton and after a long day of moving we decided to get some food. Taste was great and the service from the older workers was amazing.

Unfortunately I was not able to enjoy the food to its full potential

I used to recommend this place to everyone who wanted to try shawarma. Unfortunately, the quality of the food has been going downhill over the years. I chalked it up to not seeing the same staff (maybe they are training new employees, growing pains, etc.) but now the quality of their service is also poor. I recently ordered two chicken shawarma on rice and they didnt even put any napkins or cutlery in the bag. I called them to rectify the issue and the lady who took my order said you didnt ask for cutlery... So now its my (the customers) fault that I dont have cutlery or napkins. Go to any restaurant that offers take out and theyll either ask or just provide utensils, its standard practice. The food was bland, there was a glob of some kind of sauce (not sure exactly what since it was also flavourless) right in the middle. There was so much water in the food, Im guessing they didnt drain the rice properly, the green peas were uncooked and hard. I cannot believe how bland and dry the chicken was, we had to throw it out and order food from elsewhere. Are they just reheating frozen food? Whats going on? Where is the quality of food and service that I wrote about several years ago? I dont recommend this place and wont be ordering here from now on.

Awesome, best food. Ordered the chicken souvlaki meal that comes with a huge portion of flavored rice, potatoes, good sized Mediterranean salad (with feta and real olives), a whole pita bread cut into 4 pieces, a small individual portion of white sauce (tzatziki I think) and individual portion of what I think is flavoured olive oil drizzle that I used on everything because it was so delicious! The chicken souvlaki was done to absolute barbecue perfection - large very very tender juicy perfectly seasoned pieces of perfectly grilled meat. The potatoes have this amazing light hint of lemon combined with a savoury seasoning, and they were perfecectly seasoned and cooked. The rice was amazingly delicious. The service and casual atmosphere was as wonderful as the food. They are really really nice people who tried to make sure I got exactly what I wanted and were very attentive to me. Very organized. The people at Koozina and especially the chef get an A+++++ from me. Definitely going back for more.

I ordered from here using Skip. I ve never actually been here so I can t tell you how customer service is or cleanliness. I m also going to admit that I ve only ordered the chicken souvlaki wrap from here. It might be one of the best chicken souvlaki wraps I ve ever had. It s simple yet delicious. Pita, chicken, tzatziki, onion. 4 ingredients. Just writing about it has my mouth watering. Only downside is onion breath but if that s the cost of admission, I love the show. EDIT: Came here again 4/6/22. I actually went into the store to see it. So today I ordered the chicken Greek salad, extra chicken. Im trying a low-carb thing. Chicken was very flavorful, as I said before - the chef doesnt miss. Salad was very flavorful - will definitely be coming back for the chicken salad. So I can now say that meeting the chef - he was nice, nothing to complain about. The salad with extra chicken was $19.49. Not the cheapest salad but it was worth the money. Inside of the store looked very clean. I also noticed there was a sign that said No Visa - so do with that information what you must.

I was getting another food order near this place and wanted to get a Shawarma after from another location. As I was standing outside for my other order to be ready I realized Im standing outside of a place that also offers shawarmas so I said Ill give it a shot and see how it is. I loved the customer service as it was on point (honest, not fake) and when I got home and tried the food it was awesome. The taste hits the spot and this is now my go-to place for Shawarmas. Might try some other items on the menu next time as well.

Koozina has been our restaurant of choice since they opened. In addition we have done dozens of catering orders, each time the order is made perfectly with careful attention to details. Food quality is superb and most important service is above excellent.

Burnt, salty steak sandwiches + one missing order. edit: we ordered through Uber Eats. Unfortunately the steak sandwich was way beyond well-done and too salty to have. The missing order was extra chicken skewer which we could refund through Uber Eats.

December 22, 2022

Very Very bad food. How this restaurant gets 4.4 stars is crazy. I ordered 2 chicken Souvlakis, and one shawarma dinner. Potatoes were cooked badly and could tell they had been not made fresh that day. Rice was fine. Fries were very bad. Chicken was bland and dry. The worst shawarma I have ever had. I am not exaggerating at all. It was so dry, and had zero flavour. Even the garlic sauce I tried to choke it down with was a very artificial flavour. Salad was old looking and limp. Very very disappointed. I was the worst 65 dollars Ive spent on food in a long time. Service was friendly and very quick, but other than that I would never go back here. Not recommended whatsoever.

We went to Koozina Mediterranean Cuisine for a quick lunch and the food was awesome! We ordered Chicken Souvlaki and Chicken Shawarma on a Pita and both items were delectable, authentic and totally fresh with veggies and lots of tasty meat! I intend to return very soon to enjoy the Mediterranean lifestyle when I can sit inside and try another dish - I spoke with the owner on that day about their homemade Hummus and it sounds like a gastronomic delight!!

I ve had shawarma at half the price that s more than twice as good. The shawarma plate came with an abundance of rice that looks like I made it myself, the chicken was flavourful but some pieces were pretty questionable, and they gave the tiniest side-cup of sauce that left the whole dish dry. The salad was decent but where s the pickles and turnip? Since when is a shawarma plate just chicken on the rocks (with no sauce) with a smattering of wilted lettuce and two slices of tomato? I can t believe the ratings on this place; has no one in Milton ever been to Ottawa or Scarborough?

Okay, so theres a walk-in/take-out special - two gyros on a pita for $11.98. I buy two of the specials for my family - four gyros. Ive heard and read so many accolades about this restaurant I thought, Why not!. So the gyros meat, right off-the-bat, didnt look too authentic - it was on a spit in an upside-down cone shape as it should be, but it looked like spam meat. Gyros meat should look fluffy, flaky, chock-full of delicious spices and, well, especially..oily! This stuff was not. It really looked like spam meat that was compressed by one of those punch presses that stamp out Chrysler fenders in Detroit. Funny thing - its exactly the same gyros meat the guy uses in the food court only a coupla hundred feet away at Ako Greek. (Same supplier?) As it is a walk-in special, it is portioned exactly as such. Two thinnish pieces of this compressed spam are cut for each sandwich - and then cleverly cut in half again to make it look like four pieces in each sandwich. (Thats some astute marketing right there, but who am I to talk seeing as I bought into it?) Toppings are quite fresh, the Tzatziki other sauces were also quite good which gave these sandwiches a better taste potential. It was like having a Lamborghini in the driveway...and then equipping it with an engine from a Lada (i.e. compressed pink spam meat). Overall, a meh eating experience based upon my expectations from reading Google reviews. Take those mediocre gyros sandwiches to Greetown in Toronto and they would politely hand them back to you. Opa! 2 X $11.98 + HST = $27.07 for mediocre gyros sandwiches! It was a Monday and like the fool that I am, hindsight being 20/20...I could have ordered the Monday Madness Special at Memphis BBQ & Wicked Wings which would have come out to $28.00 all in. (Now THATS a meal!) Milton! We need some authentic Greek food à la Pape & Dan in Toronto! !

Trip 1: Superb food ...and excellent taste ! Nicely filled falafel sandwich with perfect layers of veggies and sauce. Edit updated Trip 2 : the first time was good , but not sure what happened this time.. went back for falafel sandwich for the whole family.. Was unlucky this time I suppose..usually the lady prepares it .but she was not there...the sandwich came out super dry...even though had asked for extra sauce inside. The pita bread used had many many layers-rolled (seemed xlarge size bread) and that didnt help with the already dried inside. Sorry I really hope they are consistent and produce the food that we had first time.. Will try again perhaps , but will go to other joins for now.

The owner was really nice, and it is a well kept resteraunt. The food however, was decent, nothing special, the chicken was a bit overly oily and the wrap had far to much lettuce in it which made a mess in my car. We got a few wraps, out of them, one was not wrapped properly and fell apart upon opening the tinfoil. Also, They sell Honeycomb from local bee farms and its delecious for sure try that stuff here, $10 for a big piece of honey comb.
