Bought the Chicken Shawarma plate and it’s the first and the very last time checking this place out. Food was super cold and nothing like a shawarma. Trusted the reviews:(
OMG now finally a shawarma place that you can say that the food is authentic and extremely delicious! There is nothing I can say negative from the food prepared Everything is home made. You can tell it's been made with experience, love and care. Definitely worth stopping in to get a bite. To the owner of this business Thank you.
Fahda's in Moncton proved to be a delightful find during our recent visit to the downtown car show. Seeking a quick and fresh meal, we decided to step away from the hustle and bustle and try this spot. Located just out of the busy downtown area, Fahda's offered the perfect retreat. Despite the limited indoor seating and the sweltering heat outside, we found a cozy countertop spot by the window. What struck us first was the speed and freshness of the food. We ordered a falafel wrap, and we got to watch as they prepared it right in front of us at the counter. Sharing the wrap with my son was more than enough for a mid-afternoon lunch. The wrap was generously sized, packed with crisp veggies and flavorful tzatziki. Each bite showcased the quality and care put into the preparation, making our 10km walk ahead much more bearable. The food was undeniably delicious. The vegetables were crisp, and the seasoning was spot on, creating a well-balanced and satisfying meal. While I enjoyed every bit of it, my son, though slightly less enthusiastic, agreed that he would certainly return. In summary, Fahda's offers a quick, fresh, and tasty option for anyone in the Moncton area. Whether you're looking for a brief respite from downtown activities or just craving a good meal, this place is worth a visit. We left feeling satisfied and ready to tackle the rest of our day.
Stopped in to grab a chicken and beef plate for dinner tonight and was blown away by the friendly customer service given by Fahda! She greets every single person with a huge smile, making you feel so welcome (even if it's your first time in - which it was for me). Food was absolutely incredible - so fresh and satisfying. It's clear why she has her regulars, as we will definitely be back!
Great food, was very tasty, fresh veggies and moist meat. I had the mix chicken and beef wrap. Variety of sauce to enhance your wrap experience.
Fahda's is back at their new location just a couple of doors down from the old spot. The new restaurant is beautiful and an appropriate update, albeit a bit smaller. There's a bit less dine in space and the kitchen is more efficient too. I visited at opening at 11 am. Fahda's wonderful food is back too. Fahda is known for her super fresh food and caring service. Everything tastes fresh and amazing. Uniquely, she bakes her hand made falafel which is always crispy and tasty (and healthy!) This time I had the chicken plate. It included chicken, rice, salad and her baked fries. I had it with pita, baba ghanoush (eggplant), garlic sauce, and olive oil dressing. Everything was delicious! This meal was about $20 including tax, a great value for this high quality food. If you are looking for an amazing Mediterranean meal, don't miss Fahda's incredible food!
This was the first and last time that we go here. We got the mixed chicken and beef plate to give it a try. The beef was passable but not very good. However the chicken tasted like something I had even before but couldn't put my finger on it right away. After swallowing the first bite, I realized it tasted like fish. It was rancid. We also got a shawarma wrap but considering the quality and taste of the ingredients, we threw it out unopened. I just hope we didn't get food poisoning...
Read many great/positive reviews, and we decided to order several items from Fahda's. We ordered their Beef & Chicken Shawarma Dinners, a Donair Wrap, Falafels and some Baklava. Unfortunately the meal was disappointing. The chicken shawarma was extremely salty and was not fresh, but frozen, with a the same texture & consistency one would expect from frozen chicken. The beef shawarma was the same meat as their Beef Donair which they used interchangeably. The tabouli was tossed in and mixed with the salad.The rice was average at best. As a whole, the shawarma meal was far from what I (and my better half) expected, coming from a city which had amazing shawarma s and middle Eastern foods. The falafel were not crispy and nutty, were stored in their steamer and soft/spongy. It lacked love. The baklava were overly sweet and tasted unusual, and not what we expected when compared to other baklava we have tried else where. If you are used to high quality, great tasting shawarma and falafel from bigger cities such as Toronto, sadly this isn't anywhere close to the same quality and tastes as what you would expect. As I write this, I am left extremely thirsty from all the salt they used for their foods! We really wanted to like this place, but sadly our cravings for good shawarma will have to wait a bit longer. Edit/Update: I forgot to mention the Donair was pretty good. Lots of meat and fresh ingredients, it was well balanced and flavourful and stood out as the menu item to get. I have upgraded my review to reflect the rating due to the Donair!
Not great. It was waste of money
The archtypical small independent downtown food place that should exist forever.
Very clean spot with lots of seating, big windows, and very clean restrooms. Ill be visiting this place again for sure The lady at the counter was very kind
I have a beef donair every Monday and they are delicious!
Best Donair. Best baklava
Excellent pita and she puts a lot of it
By far the best Lebanese food in Moncton, no other compares. I crave the wraps they are so saucy and satisfying, the best quality food everything is alwais fresh, all made from scratch. Vegetarian options: She has falafels and salads you can choose what you put in your wrap or plate.
First time trying Fahdas. The food was good and everything fresh including the salads. The garlic sauce was more salty then garlic and there was no hummus which was disappointing. We went in at 11:30 and it was getting busy by the time we got our order so expect a long wait during lunch time. Overall we prefer Casa k-bap but would definitely return to Fahdas as its close to home.
A great little shawarma restaurant. The food was delicious and authentic, and the prices were very reasonable. The owner/operater works with a limited inventory, so when its gone, its gone--very much a first-come, first-served restaurant. That being said, you know you can trust the freshness. There is limited seating (room for about 20-25); washrooms are available. All in all, a pleasant surprise!
Excellent good size portions
Fast service and great staff, I loved the food and will definitely come again
Rude staff
Amazing lunch spot, very tasty food!
Yumi! Fresh! Big serving! Lovely lady!
It is a warm place with fresh food. No free parking during the day. We had a problem with that. Food
LOVE this place. Food is made fresh daily and tastes like heaven. The restaurant is super clean inside, washrooms are pristine and the owner is super lovely as well. 5 star hands down.
The food was great but I was more really interested the desert! If you like pistachios you will love it I DID!
Delicios Food. Excellent attendant.. Congratulations!! Vegetarian options: Vegg wrap Food : 5/5 |
Great food, good atmosphere and friendly service.
Parking: Parking meters in front of the door Food
Sooo goood!
amazing every time !
Best Mediterranean food in New Brunswick! The owner is a fantastic lady with a great memory. She remembers peoples orders even if you return years later. Its always my first stop whenever Im in Moncton.
As THE Donair Master executive taster I was astonished when the gentle touch of the meat landed opon my tongue the sauce... oh man the sauce the bitter yet sweetness of it brings me flash backs the lettuce gives it that refreshing taste and the bread... It was bread I guess? And finally the severe state of depression that hits after finishing that master piece was absolutely flabbergasting I had to get a therapist after eating it because I knew I could not drive there. because I dont have a car...
Very good pitas! I had the donair pita and it was super flavorful, great place to stop by for a good and quick meal!
Delicious
Best Donair on the east coast thank you for the authentic and delicious food!
The service was fast and pleasant, the pitas were delicious and huge!
always great food and service
Ouffff really not good meeting mezza 1000 times better the Mrs super nice but her pita bread tastes like crepe and her chicken really not good and give your opinion if you put other sauce on your pita which is not typical Lebanese ....eeeeeeee puts what I like and your opinion doesnt matter to me 1st time and the last also I dont understand why it remains open????
Very fresh produce, sauces are homemade, meat is very tender and flavorful. Fahda herself is a gem in the downtown area. She knows her regular customers and their favorite orders. I highly recommend this restaurant. Vegetarian options: Good choices. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free available
We showed up shortly before close and was treated with grace and hospitality. Great food, generous portions and fresh ingredients. Will certainly be back!
Excellent donair! J ai adoré mon expérience. Très bon service à la clientèle. Les choix de salades sont vraiment intéressants. Grande sélections de donair et sandwichs. On peut manger sur place ou à emporter. On peut se stationner juste devant. Le temps d attente est très acceptable. On voit que la propriétaire est très fière de son entreprise et je recommande fortement.
Great food, friendly staff!
Quality food.really fresh ingredients.
Fahdas is so clean. The chicken is AMAZING! and Ive never had better baklava!
Rice was hard,not fresh. Lamb was very over done. Salad was good. Sauce also good.
It s not halal restaurants jest them self said it s halal but it s not
Donair wraps are awesome
Delicious food always.Chicken shawarma and chicken slovaki are the best.
Great service...Super clean store ...Close to Avenir Center and always fresh Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to navigate Food : 5/5 |
Delicious shwarma and falafel wraps
Please for heavens sake stop turn around and go to Meza this place is a rip off and horrible selling chicken shawarma cold straight out the fridge worse place I have ever been too and demands a tip..terrible service slaps it together as if she as a line of a 100 people....honestly I would pick McDonalds over this place and I havent ate their in 10 years...
Simply the best donair wrap in town. Service is always amazing and super friendly, prices are great and portion sizes are fantastic. Location can be hard to park at depending on the time of the day but it is well walking a little bit if the on street parking is full.
Excellent food. 1st time here for me. I selected Fahdas for my birthday wish. Highly recommended
I had a takeaway meal, unfortunately within 5 minutes of getting home the meal was cold. And the prices are very high. However the service was very good and the food was good but perhaps eating on site would be more suitable.
Nice spot , friendly great food.
Excellent large order meat tray, including rice, fries and salad. Tried, tested and always great with everyone
Best shawarma in town.
Frankly, Im sorry to say my opinion directly: super disappointed! Firstly, the wrap (Lebanese Raghif) tears when the lady rolls it, which means it s not new!!!! Secondly, the taste of the food is far from what it is .. Not to mention the smell of frying and other ingredients that interfere with good tasting.
Best donair available in Moncton, and the best donair Ive had anywhere in New Brunswick. Absolutely amazing.
I stopped in there on Sat around 3. The lady was very friendly. The ingredients looked fresh. I got a falafel wrap. Ive had these many times before in other cities. This was the driest, tastless ever. I scrapped the falafel out and ate the wrap and veggies. Extremely disappointing
Gross. Everything was soggy. From the pita to the fries. This is not Mediterranean or middle eastern. Honestly gross.
Fahdas s is our favourite healthy take out in Moncton! Everything is always fresh and delicious, chicken shawarma and slouvaki are the best! We eat here every week and are never disappointed. 15/10 love Fahda and her food.
Pretty good Mediterranean food
Food was good. You can try !!
Hidden gem I wish they delivered.
If your really hungry for a good healthy meal Fahdas is a great choice.the garlic spread keeps me coming back!
Rude service, extremely low quantity and overpriced food Don t waste your time and money here
10/10 - I ordered the souvlaki plate - the chicken was incredibly flavourful, and incredible garlic sauce. The rice today was lentil with rice - delicious. The best part was that she makes you feel like the only person in the room when you re ordering. Felt personal and was delicious. My husband got the donair, he said it was tasty but nothing too wild! Sounds like the souvlaki plate is the winner.
Excellent food
Best in Moncton
Owner is kind and welcoming. The best donair and shawarma in town hands down. Their platter are very good as well
I used to work near here 14 years ago and frequently went to Fahdas with coworkers. I still go today whenever Im in town. I recommend the wraps, especially the donair. Theyre huge and stuffed full of delicious flavours. And get a baklava, if she hasnt sold out yet! Ive gotten plate meals a couple of times but the wraps are where its at.
Gigantic portions of delicious wraps made with very fresh ingredients.
Customer service was very poor, they dont know how to deal with customers and they are very rude. Food was very disappointing and disgusting, worst food I have ever eaten in my life, food was very bad and not delicious at all, taste of the food was like we are eating stale food.
Dont know where all these great reviews come from. Lunch was a complete mess and ice cold. Falafels arent supposed to be a crumbled up cold mess. Chicken shwarma wrap was also ice cold. First and last time.
Definitely one of the best restaurants in Moncton.
Her donair was magic for me today. Thank you.
Fast friendly delicious fresh food from Lebanon. The owner is really nice and always remembers you. Recommend the beef donair as she is generous with the meat and lots of sauce and ingredients.
Incredible Shawarma
Huge servings and great flavour!
Absolutely delicious
Delicious donairs/falafels/shawarmas/souvalkis, with fresh ingredients, fast service, a very friendly owner (Fahda), & large serving sizes... This place is great!
Great food and great service!!
This place serves amazing food. Fresh and clean. And if you havent discovered Fahdas yet...go! You will be pleasantly surprised. Her baklava is such a treat!
Excellent always fresh.
Great food and friendly service
great food, great prices too!!
always excellent food at Fahdas
Had a beef donair and it was loaded with meat,parsley,tomoatoes and onions as well as hummus on bottom with garlic. If you want a kick to your wrap ask her for a spicy sauce. Good quanitity and fresh ingredients. Good service too. Pros- fresh ingredients great spreads and sauces Cons- perhaps the prices could be lowered a bit
Lovely lady who s always working :) top notch food and service!
Excellent service but definitely not good food.
amazing hospitality and amazing food chicken and garlic was the best
Went here to get a Shawarma wrap after reading several great reviews, but the wrap itself wasnt as good.
Always delicious!
Freshest and best tasting wraps hands down. Her produce is always fresh. The donair meat is spiced right. The chicken swarma is delicious.The baclavas ooze sweetness.Curbside parking, plenty if seats inside.Fast and friendly service you cant go wrong eating here.
Disappointed with the quality of the food
Super fresh and generous portions!
The have the best beef donairs I ever ate in my life!
Fahda is amazing! Her food is delicious!
Excellent quality/price balance. Food is great but the service is even better.
Worst chicken shawarma and rice I ve eaten in my life. I mean it. And believe me, I ve eaten many. It s my soul food. I eat chicken shawarma at least once a week in my hometown, and wherever I travel. So if I have to give a ballpark number, I d say I ve had shawarma in at least 50 different places in 10 different cities, including Toronto, Quebec City, Montreal, Ottawa, Austin, Dallas, New York, Chicago, Phoenix and Denver and by far, this was the worst shawarma and worst rice. The chicken was bland and tasteless with no flavor as if it was BOILED and not cooked as a shawarma. It was rubbery. The rice were the same. They were of very bad quality with no aroma whatsoever. I thought this place would be authentic but was very disappointed. I repeat - Worst shawarma.
What a great spot for a quick lunch! Cant go wrong with the donaire! Everyone that works there is very friendly and always recommends great combos. Ingredients are always fresh and taste is unbelievable. It is a smaller restaurant so I find it better to grab and go! Always a go-to!
so fresh! everything from scratch. fantastic service and more importantly fantastic food. great vegan options.
Very good! Very good salad, all fresh, crunchy and delicious vegetables and chicken, hummus and tasty and spicy garlic sauce
Bland rice and bland chicken, would not call this shawarma
Good food at a reasonable price.
Fahda s is a great place for a good feed. We picked up 2 beef donairs for lunch and they didn t disappoint. Scrumptious.Been there a few times and we will be back.
Great food. A delightful owner.
From the outside this place doesnt look like much but well worth the visit. The inside isnt a wow either but, the food is delicious!!! And the plates are huges. Worth ever penny!!
Kelsey needs a chill pill. Writing this review to cancel out her bad review. Fahdas is plain AWESOME. Love everything on the menu
Excellent customer service, delicious food
Delicious!
THE best wraps in town!! Friendliest service!! We look forward to seeing Fahda and enjoying her food every weekend!!
Exellent great food great service
The Donair here was amazing. They also have homemade baked spiced French fries with a side of garlic sauce that blew me away. Sooo good!
We loved the chicken shawarma platters and will definitely be back! Everything very fresh :)
Donair wraps are amazing!! A little pricey but I highly recommend!
By far one of the best restaurants in the area. Not once have I was not satisfied with Fadhas amazing food! Prices are fair too! The owner is an amazing business woman!
If I could give this place more than 5 stars I totally would. Fahdas pita wraps are the BEST in town. I would highly recommend anyone to come here to try her food. She makes all her sauces, and desserts from scratch. She doesnt only sell wraps, she also sells her famous garlic fries, donairs, and also has Lebanese plates. Her food is also under the healthy food guide as well. She will always have me as a loyal customer for years to come
Super friendly. Great food. Good size servings.
Healthy and delicious food Friendly service
Excellent food always freshly made wraps
Always been my favorite. I would give it more than 5 stars . Amazing food amazing service fresh ingredients so tasty . Love you fahda !!
Delicious food and wonderful service!
best food ever feel like home flavor will sure go back every time I am in moncton
Its different and their fries are good.... not like the ones at McDonalds
Nice restaurant, and you can eat there healthy food.
FOOD WAS AMAZING SERVICE WAS GREAT EXTREMELY CLEAN ITS A MUST IF YOUR IN DOWNTOWN AREA
That has nothing to do with shawarma or gyro. Fries were like rubber.
The best best best shawarmas and Souvlaki in a long long time...the best in Moncton so far ! 110% recommended !
Best Donairs in town!
I have been here many times and have never been disappointed. The owner is the sweetest little lady you will ever meet, she is very hands on to ensure that her high standard of quality is met. She makes everything from scratch, including all her sauces and a spreads. No chain restaurant will ever compare to this type of mom and pop, scratch kitchen.
Love the food here itttts greattt
Honestly the best place in moncton you will want to go back everytime your thinking about food
Large portions. But the chicken in my chicken shawarma didnt have any flavor it was very bland.
You have to try, its french and unique.
Great food
We ordered chicken shawarma plate, chicken shawarma wrap and a salad. Everything was great tasting, Fahda takes pride in her ingredients, cooking etc . Awesome Middle Eastern Food and she doesn t scrimp on the greens and instead load the rice! Lots of veggies and Chicken and only a little rice.
Awesome donairs
Super friendly, food is delicious and made with a lot of love!
Consistently great.
Good place for a chicken shawarma or tasty donair. Great place if you plan to visit the Avenir Centre... Before or game an event.
Food was fresh and good. I had a large chickpea salad, but it was a little light on the chickpeas and very light on the dressing
After living in a big city full if shawarma places, I have been on the hunt for a good place for a chicken shawarma in NB. By far the best I have had to date in New Brunswick. The garlic is done well and the portions are more than generous. The service was amazing and the lady was very sweet. A definite must try if youre looking for big city Ontario style shawarma!
Try the baklava - Highly recommended
Here you can have a various pitas, taste was delicious and good in all sense.
Best Pita wrap, hands down.. ALWAYS a great customer service and trust me i am very picky with food and service
Delicious, there is nothing else to say. The food speaks for itself.
Huge portions, very reasonable and delicious. The beef donair I had was massive.
Great service from Fahda. Very friendly. Great donair and the baklava is to die for
Amazing flavours, fresh and healthy food. Go go go!
Excellent food for the money
Great food and great service
Absolutely delicious.
Portions were amazing
Amazing as always. Make sure to get the #2.
Excellent quality with fresh ingredients. The service was personable and genuine. Highly recommended.
Best food! Owner is so kind and knowledgeable about everything she makes, gluten free is never a problem!!!
The best shawarmas in the Greater Moncton area, along with the friendliest owner! Everyone loves Fahda!
Always great service and food !!
Amazing
Top notch! Best donairs in Moncton!!!
So tasty!
They re trying to do too much at the same time. Got my order wrong multiple times. I ordered a shawarma and in the end I still don t know what I ended up with, but it wasn t a shawarma. I ll never go back. I went and got lunch from a different place afterwards.
Excellent Donairs, great service. The owner is a great lady who values her customers and is so nice. I highly recommend this restaurant. You can have great Baklava here, homemade by the owner. Very large portions.
When I googled Falafel and Moncton, this place showed up. Im so glad it did. Food was delicious and stuck to my ribs. It kept me full and strangely I had no night time food cravings like i usually do. Quick too. This was my first visit but certainly wont be my last.
Best Donair in town.
Beef Donair is the best in town. Delicious!
Fantastic restaurant. Unbelievable food.
Chicken shawarma was fantastic. Love the owner too!
Good food. Home made. Faddah is the best.
Best Shawarma in the city! Hands down!!!
So delicious, best Shawarma in Moncton!
Friendliest service, best wraps in town by far.
