Chez Talal in Newmarket

Unfortunately, the food served is not Middle Eastern at all. My 1 star review is based on the quality of the food. I can tell the chicken shawarma wrap has a lot of fat, and chicken skin cant say its 100 % pure meat. Hummus tastes unpleasantly not as it is spose to be, which is not made from scratch.

Beef shawarma wrap was fresh and delicious Will be back Food

favourite place to get food ever, nothing is better

Worst food ever! Chicken kebab meat was rancid, Harissa potatoes mushy and full of oil. Manager did not even attempt to rectify any of our concerns. Absolute waste of money also gave a tip of $10 for nothing

You get what you pay this is cheap and quality is terrible. Their chicken has a lot of not removed skins. Their veggies are always having dead bugs in there and you get and eat with your food. Not very clean and don t follow public health.

Chez Talal is an amazing restaurant with delicious food and very kind staff. This is my favourite shawarma and kebob place for 9 years, very fresh and high quality food. Ive been coming here for years and everyone who comes here knows the high quality food and how generous the owners are. The owners donate and help many cancer charities. The 1 star reviews are clearly fake

The food was delicious and I will definitely come back here again! The man that made our food was super nice as well!

the food was honestly good however my boyfriend and I got food poisoning the next day and we think it was from the chicken. Highly recommend avoiding their chicken.

Definitely the BEST shawarma Ive ever tried! The shawarma is fresh and flavourful, the portions are huge, and the staff are always friendly. The chicken shawarma plate and the garlic sauce is my favourite Last time I tried shawarma this good was in Dubai!

Ordered a mixed shawarma family dinner for 8 people and it was so delicious and fresh.

If youre a fan of shawarma, Chez Talal is an absolute must visit! The shawarma plates are generous and packed with flavour, well seasoned, juicy, and perfectly spiced! The variety of toppings and sauces allows you to customize your meal to perfection The restaurant has a welcoming and clean environment, the employees are nice and friendly, and the food is the best quality. Thank you to the amazing Chez Talal team for always making all the food so delicious Such a large selection of drinks you cant find anywhere else

Went for the first time in 3+ years and the quality has really dropped. I was served dry meat however the garlic sauce is still great.

So delicious. I bought a wrap one minute ago and it s so good that I felt compelled to make a review. GREAT PLACE.

My neighbour told me about this spot and it is the best shawarma hands down Try the chicken shawarma plate!

Been coming to this shawarma spot for a long time and it s definitely the best shawarma I ve ever tried! The food is flavourful and fresh, the portions are huge, and the plates come with a free pop and pita

High quality ingredients, tasty and very good price/portion. The shawarmas are seasoned and cooked perfectly, everything including all the sauces to the fresh toppings is made in house! Highly recommend!

It was my first time coming to Chez Talal today! I ordered 2 wraps, baklavas, and a Greek salad today and I absolutely loved it! The portions are HUGE and worth the money. I was looking for an amazing Shawarma place and I finally found Chez Talal! I will gladly come again! Food

The shawarma is great quality and the vegetables are always fresh. The food is fantastic and the wraps are really large, I feel so healthy every time I eat here. Well worth it!

Fantastic food, good value, big portions, and friendly customer service always! Once you have this its really hard to like other shawarma places. A Must place to try, especially the chicken shawarma plates! BEST and most flavourful shawarma my wife and I have ever had! I will bring my family & friends here too next time.

The best of the best! The chicken shawarma plates are delicious. Always fresh, flavourful, and generous portions! Came here all the way from Vaughn and it was amazing!

My wife got a family platter today and it was not edible. Chicken and beef old and dry everything else just seemed very old.

My friends and family absolutely LOVE Chez Talal! We order it all the time. The chicken and beef shawarma is so tasty, love the smooth hummus and the mix of all the sauces make the whole platter delicious. The most recent time I went with my family we ordered lamb and beef 12 pieces skewers with rice and it was extremely delightful. Definitely will be back!

I do truly believe that the owner is (paying for a 5 star automated reviews service) to beat the true real honest review from real customers. Unfortunately, my meal was burnt . If you see my review is honest, give it a like! Lets hit 100 likes The conclusion is never coming back, and I dont recommend this spot to nobody

Been a customer here for almost 6 years and the food is delicious and the employees are very nice! The owners are very hardworking people and do a lot donations and community work, they even give free food to the homeless in the Newmarket area. I love that the hummus, baba ganouj, and garlic paste is put inside the plates and wraps and you dont have to pay extra for these pastes. Other shawarma places charge extra for even hummus in the plates and they dont even offer baba ganouj at all. I can try any menu item from here and it is always so good, Im amazed every time.

Been coming here for 2 years and the portions are always huge! They always put a generous amount and the food is absolutely delicious. Definitely the best shawarma place, 5 star you have to try!

I would give this place 10 stars if I could Ive tried almost everything on the menu and it continually amazes me The food is always hot, fresh, and delicious, and the portions are huge This shawarma place stands out because wide selection of limited edition drinks phenomenal, the plates come with a pita & pop, the customer service is amazing, the meat is consistently super high quality, and the menu is huge with many options to choose from My personal favourites: Mixed shawarma poutine Vegan options: Garlic Potato Herrera, veggie supreme with falafels Chicken shawarma plate Kafta/kubida skewers with their house garlic sauce I come here once a week and always looking forward to coming back! Eating here is the best part of my week, would never go anywhere else!

A terrible experience at cheez talal. Afew days ago, I visited this restaurant and had a very unpleasant experience that I feel compelled to share. The interior of the restaurant was extremely dark and dirty which left a negative first impression on me. On top of that the food we ordered was not only tasteless but also seemed spoil and stale. This is highly concerning as it show a lack of care for the hygiene and health of customers. Worst of all the behaviour of the restaurant owner was extremely rude and unprofessional, when we complained about the poor quality of the food and the unpleasant condition of the restaurant, they refused to listen, also responded with rudeness and complete disrespect. We would not recommend this lebananies restaurant to anyone and believe that such places should be avoided.

Food is flavorful and the meat was juicy. The food portion is huge.

My friend took me here saying the Chez Talal has the most fresh and tastiest food. I was excited to try and it was the BEST quality shawarma Ive ever had. I ordered the cauliflower dinner with a side order of chicken shawarma and I absolutely loved it! The staff is friendly and provide great service! cant wait to be back :)

Quality has went down by a lot. Got chicken shawarma wrap and mixed shawarma dinner. Meat in both tasted like bread and had bad smell. Also got falafel. Was fried in atleast a week old oil. Tasted like burnt rubber.

Been coming here for years and the shawarma has always been amazing! The shawarma, kebabs, and vegetables is always fresh and delicious My wife and I tried shawarma everywhere from Aurora, Richmond Hill, and Mississauga but Chez Talal is absolutely outstanding One of my favourite places to eat!

The food is amazing and the staff are outstanding and kind

The food was totally spoiled. The worst shawarma i have ever had. the taste is not like shawarma at all, the food and lettuce and everything on the wrap was stale and bad smell. I don t recommend that restaurant. I regret I eat this food

Best chicken shawarma! Came in here for the first time and the quality of the food is amazing, great portion sizes and a variety of choices to pick from! Certainly the best flavoured shawarma and garlic sauce Ive ever tried! I highly recommend Looking forward to ordering catering from here for 60 people next weekend!

Had a fatoosh salad with a chicken skewer and strawberry drink. This location is a 48 minute drive from my residence but I think its worth the drive again! Fatoosh salad and chicken were amazing!

Pathetic shawarmas. Soggy bread and meat was full of salt.No sauce in shawarmas despite choosing options online.

The worst Shawarma I ever tasted !!! It was awful

Worst shawarma I ve ever had. Went after seeing the great reviews and it was extremely hot in the building. Ordered chicken shawarma fries and a shawarma platter and both dishes were extremely oily. To the point where the takeout containers were beginning to leak. My boyfriend and I both got food poisoning after so will not be returning.

Excellent

We came in at the end of the day looking for somewhere to eat and just devour anything and this place delivered. So good, giant portions and friendly staff

I do really like this small place. (Chicken kabobs, rice, little salad with * delicious homemade hummus.) I look for lunch places with tasty, inexpensive food that has gluten-free options, friendly staff and food serving area looks clean. (Not worried about the decor.) I ll sit outside to eat if weather permits and enough space for a quick lunch. Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free (no allergies). I d eat lots more items on menu if no dietary restrictions. Parking: Strip-mall type parking. Kid-friendliness: No doubt no issue.

Good food and excellent customer service. I had a chicken shawarma and a falafel.

Food is delicious portions seemed small. Dont know if its because I went it prior to closing but felt like it could have been more for the price.

This place is it!!!! Highly recommend, the food for me is outstanding and bursting with flavour!!, I go sometimes after work, hits the spot just right!! I also agree they are very reasonably priced. This place is phenomenal all around as well, service too!! Been going years and nothing changes in terms of delicious food and good service.

Deeply disappointed with my recent takeout experience at Chez Tala. This place is no longer what it used to be. Ordered 3 chicken Shawarma dinners and showed up early before everything was finalized. Despite bringing it to her attention and asking for the hummus to be put as a side option, the woman working quickly corrected me and insisted that the garlic sauce, hot sauce, and tahini could be on the side, but hummus has to go on top. Basically told me it is what it is and was too late to add? When we opened our dinners, there was NO hummus and MINIMAL chicken. Chicken was lightly sprinkled on. Half of the dinner containers were filled with gross tomatoes and onions. What a joke! Super disappointing not to receive hummus as requested and the excess of tomatoes and onions was very off putting. We will NEVER be ordering from here again.

I came here a while ago and it was really good and fresh. I went by yesterday n the food didnt hit my stomach good. I had stomach cramps all night. I think it has to do with the chicken not being fresh. The lady served me chicken from being in the container and dont know how long that was sitting there for. They should cut shawarma chicken from the stick n grill it fresh like all places do. Will not go back

Best I have ever had!! Enough said

Really good food and good proportions.

Disgusting falafel

Very good quality

Great work keep up great service

When we drive thru Newmarket its the families favorite. The only reason to stop in Newmarket! Vegetarian options: The Cauliflower wrap and eggplant wrap are amazing

Just got a salad and meat. Honestly, the presentation, taste and everything, went straight in the garbage.

We ordered beef and chicken kabobs for our office lunch meeting and everyone loved it! It was very fresh and delicious, everyone was asking where it was from and we gladly told them it was from the best shawarma and kabob place, Chez Talal. We highly recommend this place!

Legitimately the best shawarma I have ever had in my life anywhere. There is no question and no argument.

This is a great little local place. The schwarma dinner is excellent as is the falafel and the price is very reasonable. Great value and friendly service.

Chez Talal is our go to late night eat. The owner (I think he owns the place, he s always there) is so kind and does a great job every time! Always so filling and tasty!

Mediterranean Fan at One of the Best Mediterranean Restaurants. The manager is so humble and kind - I haven t tasted this kind of shawarma at Brampton, though it s far but worth the food.

After I decided what to purchase and servant packed my food, she told me I should pay either cash or email transfer since their machine doesnt work. I refused and came out of the store.

10/10 Newmarket classic some of the best food in town

Update: I went twice recently, and business has improved their quality and quantity of the food. Updating to 5 stars Original: I used to be a better managed business and my favorite place compared to other Mediterranean restaurants when the husband used to run the shop. Went yesterday, and the wife ran the shop. It appeared to be stale left-over veggies, and she was barely putting any in the wrap even on insisting. End result, wrap had less than half of the weight than what normally is when husband makes it. I understand things are going expensive, but cutting on food quality never helps a business and never will.

Amazing flavour and freshness.

Absolutely love this place. The food is always delicious and the staff... sweetest humans alive. I always leave smiling because the interactions are lovely.

The french fries are really good, as were the falafels! Kebeh, on the other hand, was a bit small for the price. I was also expecting a little more kebeh. It was a very thin layer compared to the amount of ground beef inside. Humus was a little runny, but tasty. Although it was a good experience in general, we were very disappointed that the falafel sauce was spoiled - it went straight to the garbage when we opened.

Tasty shawarma. Will be back.

Awesome food if you like shawarma and very friendly service.

Ordered the Cauliflower sandwich which was incredibly delicious - will be back for more! They generously pack their lunch plates and sandwiches. Tabule salad was fresh and vibrant. Chicken shawarma was well spiced. Food

Best shawarma in town, they add sumac on everything and its family owned too

Food is always good.

We had this at our office for lunch and it was flavourful and more than we expected. The variety and consideration put into our order made it a great luncheon!! Food

The food is absolutely amazing, most of the time we will drive out of the way to come here. Highly recommend!!

I ordered chicken shawarma, it was the worst shawarma I have ever eaten in my entire life. Chicken was smelly, vegetables wasn t fresh, taste of the sauce was very bad. One star is too much for this dish.

Tried chicken and mix shawarma today, very delicious!

I have to absolutely disagree with the last review. Chez talal has been phenomenal from day 1. Their food is one of the best Mediterranean restaurants Ive eaten in, Im sure there are bad days and thats what the last reviewer was complaining about but hey we all have bad days, I absolutely recommend them to give it another go at it. The owner is an absolute sweetheart, she is kind and cares very much about feeding her community. Im sure if theres a problem just reach out to the owner and she will gladly make sure you are taken care of, but I know from eating there many times that her food is tremendously delicious, may I suggest the kebeh next time its to die for. keep up the great work chez talal.

Great service. Super friendly staff. Ready on time and delicious!! Vegetarian options: Excellent

Overpriced, small portions, couldn t even have more than 3 bites without throwing it out.

Not the best, not the worse. I found their food salty and bland at the same time. The chicken was salty but lacked any other flavour. My meal was supposed to come with a drink but didn t. I might go back, I might not, but I won t crave the food. The price is ok but you re not getting a sweet deal. Very average.

SUCH AN AMAZING RESTAURANT, OH MY GOODNESS!! WE ATE HERE TODAY FOR LUNCH!!! I LOVE THEIR KEBABS, CHICKEN PIECES, RICE WITH SAUCES, ETC., YOU NAME IT!! EVERYTHING!!! I DO A LOT OF REVIEWS ON GOOGLE, CHECK OUT MY REVIEWS IN MOST OF THE HALAL RESTAURANTS IN MISSISSAUGA. I DO HONEST REVIEWS, WHICH MEANS THAT WHATEVER PLACE I GO TO, I WILL WRITE A REVIEW, BASED ON MY THOUGHTS ABOUT THAT PARTICULAR PLACE. I ALSO DO REVIEWS ON OTHER PLACES WHERE I HAVE BEEN TO, LIKE SHOPPING PLACES AS WELL. I also had Coca Cola with the food, which was great!! Soda is definitely recommended with the food Unfortunately (not the problem of the restaurant), what happened, is that I think we did not close the lid of the red hot sauce properly and it all spilled in the plastic bag when it was in the to-go box. So sad that I never got to try it, but I am sure it would have been scrumptious. I feel like I will never be able to have it, since we live in Mississauga, and we will not be coming here again for a long time since we are an hour away. Anyways, my honest review is TRY IT. IT IS RECOMMENDED. And for people who live in Newmarket, good for them. They should eat here at a regular basis whenever they can. RECOMMENDED GUYS, REEEECCCCOOOMMMEEENNNDDDEEEDDD!!!!!!!!!

Very much enjoyed the flavour of their sauce and chicken, would come again for flavour and price for the amount of food is very nice.

Every single time we order delivery from here the order is completely wrong. What is happening? I order fries with the meal, we get rice, I order eggplant appetizer, we get rice, we order garlic sauce on the meal, we get hot sauce. I m seriously not going to be ordering again because we never get what we order! So strange! Not to mention we were REPEAT customers, we loved the food but something happened and we never get what we order any more. It s really sad. We spent $80 yesterday through Uber Eats and we barely ate 1/4 of what arrived. Such a waste.

My wife and me enjoyed their so delicious Falafel sandwich. The host was very kind and respectful. Well be back soon again.

Big portions and tasty

Clean place, fresh tasty food outstanding service reasonable prices! Best middle eastern food in Newmarket. Highly recommended!

Been coming here for YEARS!! Always quick and friendly customer service... The best potato harra Ive ever had! Perfectly wrapped shawarma pitas and just the right amount of filling so it doesnt explode out! Highly recommended.

The food is just alrite. Better Shawarma places

Updating from a 1 star to a 3 star New post: Came here after going to the sauna next door and gentleman working was very friendly and polite I ordered the chicken shawarma plate w. potatoes and my friend ordered the cauliflower wrap meal that came with a side of fries My meal was good and made fresh and potatoes were nice and piping hot. The cauliflower wrap was tasty as well however the fries were a weak portion size Despite the clean appearance of the restaurant, there was a strong smoky/burnt smell inside which was a bit off putting Original post: Absolute GARBAGE: Fatoush salad wasn t even a typical fatoush salad, it was merely iceberg lettuce with a few tomatoes, cucumber and carrots and 5 burnt pieces of unappetizing looking pita. But even worse the Chicken shawarma poutine DIDN T EVEN COME WITH GRAVY BECAUSE THEY DON T HAVE GRAVY! Can you even call it a poutine when there s no gravy?!? And they used shredded cheese instead of cheese curds? Don t waste your money coming here. We only came because Shawarmaland was closed.

Need improvement on interior and kitchen, food quality is not the best.

Yum yum, dredging tasting chicken shawarma platter, comes with naan a can drink. Was better than expected; shawarma wasn t undercooked nor overcooked

Great shawarma. I havent had one this good in a long time!!

Wow, simply amazing, best Mediterranean food I ve ever had, it s simply breathtaking. The guy that served us was welcoming and smiling, a real ray of sunshine, prices are fair for the quantity and the quality you get, I would recommend 100% to anyone.

Some of greatest customer service Ive had and seen, no problems with anyone and just a nice flow. The food? Delish

Excellent food, service and portion. I go out of my way just to eat here. Highly recommended A+++

Chez Talal has the best falafels. Everything here is so flavourful and well made.

The showarma was awful. I won´t go back there again. No thanks!

Very friendly service

Best food ever! Staff is friendly and restaurant is clean!

Dietary restrictions: Excellent Halal option Recommended dishes

Had the mixed shawarma wrap, excellent!

Great food, friendly staff!

Called ahead to inquire about vegan options, and received a very thorough list from the menu. The rice and lentils, baba ganoush, tabouleh, potato harrah, and grape leaves we ordered were fresh and flavourful, and the portion sizes were great - we had leftovers the next day that were just as delicious. We will definitely return Vegetarian options: Lots of meat-free dishes Dietary restrictions: Lots of vegan options Parking: Multiple parking spaces at location.

I love their food. Their fries are crispy and their non-veg options are great. If you love arabic food, you would love this place. And the best part is their quantity, for the price it is great value for money. Food : 5/5

Good food. Little too salty

The food was great, and so as the service. Staff were so friendly and accomodating. Vegetarian options: They have veggie falafel

The Family meal (4) for 67.00 once you add the tax cant be beat (Higher with tip obviously). Chicken/beef with a mix of fries/rice, veg and sauces... Delicious.... And so much more healthy than fast food. You just cant beat it.

I have been going to grab take-out from Chez Talal for a couple of years now. I have always been pleased with the food, taste, quality, and price. Good bang for your buck. I highly recommend the chicken shawarma and a side order of their handmade grape leaves. The owner is very nice and takes pride in her business and food that she creates for her menu.

Its about the really good food, not the atmosphere

food was really bad i hate it

WAY to overpriced, portions were so small , and food was not good, I think it s under new ownership

Very flavourful meal! It s so nice for them to have more vegetarian dinner options than just falafels. The cauliflower is tasty. Will go back again!

Ordered Uber eats delivery from this for a chicken shawerma dinner. The chicken tasted extremely old and gamey, almost inedible, followed by an upset stomach afterwards. It was a small portion even though it was expensive. I used to be a regular a few years ago.

I ordered a chicken shawarma dinner yesterday and everything was very delicious and the portions were huge. The chicken shawarma was fresh and so tasty. I love that you can get hummus, garlic paste, baba ganouj and a big selection of vegetables to go with the rice and shawarma for the plates/dinners which is amazing since other shawarma places charge separately for hummus and toppings.

Great good, great people and great service. Tasty, solid portions and very helpful staff. The beef is amazing, chicken brilliant and falafel is tasty!

Your basic Shawarma. Pretty good sandwhich. Market priced. Nice staff. Food : 3/5 |

Keba was out of this world!

Small cozy diner with delicious food.

One of the worst shawarma plates I ve ever had. Up there with Osmows. Poor quality meat and consistency. Cheap ingredients. Had instant diarrhea after I ate it.

One of the best shawarma places in ontario.. try their lamb and lettuce plate its amazing !

We ordered online for a party the next day and the process was simple and seamless. Our order was ready on time and the owner was there to ensure everything was perfect. The food was hot and well packaged to avoid spills in our car. Everyone raved about the food ~ it was tender, flavourful, and plentiful. This is a fabulous restaurant and earns top stars all round !

My favourite restaurant in Newmarket. Awesome staff and the food is halal! Favourite dish is the kafta kabob dinner Food

Ordered 2 wraps, 1 shawarma poutine and 2 drinks and it came to $45. The chicken was incredibly greasy, completely soaked through the wax paper and the poutine had a massive pool of oil in the corner of the styrofoam container. Got the runs within 20 minutes of eating it. The service was decent though. The restaurant was also very hot inside which probably explains the lack of people dining in.

Very dirty place. Meat is very questionable. I decided to stop by here seeing the 4 star reviews. I ordered a beef and chicken shawarma bowl. My son ordered aBeef shawarma wrap. My other two kids ordered the burger. I took a few bites and instantly felt something wasn t right. My wife also didn t take more than a couple bites. The burger was a frozen patty and it was way over cooked. Bathrooms were very dirty and the overall cleanliness is really bad! Try it for yourself, but I m not coming back!

The chicken shawarma dinner with fries and garlic sauce is amazing! I highly recommend and cant wait to go back. I get shawarma from here at least twice a week since its so good, try it for yourself :)

I used to love dining here. Service was great, food was fresh and flavourful. But in the past year or so, everything has gone down hill. It feels like they do not take pride in their food anymore. Salad was not fresh, meat tasted old. So disappointing to see this decline in what used to be my favourite shawarma spot. Take the extra 5 minutes and go to flaming stove instead. You won t be disappointed.

Good

falafel is bussin 10/10 mixed shawarma slaps fr Food

I rarely give bad reviews until I ve gone back a second time in case it was just a bad night. This is an exception because I won t go back. I believe there is a new owner. The food was greasy and overly salted. The eggplant pita wasn t cooked well so I kept pulling out pieces of tough skin. Too greasy. Even the sauces weren t the quality they used to be. I got baba ghanouj but it looked more like hummus. I believe they are cutting corners. The chicken shawarma was also poorer quality. Very disappointed because we used to love this place.

This was our first time at this restaurant which we selected for its reviews. We ordered 1 chicken shawarma wrap (no extra heat- all toppings except hot sauce and peppers), 2 mixed chicken and beef shawarma wraps- with all the toppings and med hot sauce on one and hot other. All of the wraps were the most bland wraps we have ever had. The meat had no taste, the garlic sauce and hummus had no taste, seasoned tomatoes and onions bland. The wrap was big and filling- but even the chain shawarma s have significantly more flavour. The guy serving was super friendly and nice.

I have been coming here for years and it s always been the BEST , Chez allows you to choose vegetables that are fresh and delicious. The menu is huge with many vegan and vegetarian options as well! The kabob skewers are my go to options and they also have wide selection of juices

Good vegan food, should have more! Love the baklava

I think it was normal, not very good, not bad

This place is dirty and prices are not as advertised! On the menu it shows $6.99 for a chicken shawarma! I was charged $9.99! Ridiculous! It s summer and the restaurant is so hot no air conditioning not even a fan! I wouldn t recommend this place! And the shawarma was mediocre very boring

Worst chiken shawarma that Ive ever had. The place is very dirty and looks like a homeless person put the tables together. Christmas decorations on the wall from last year. Mens bathroom is a black stained toilet bowl, broken soap dispenser and faucet doesnt work properly. This place gives off really trashy vibes. The complete disregard for this establishment shows that the owner really dont care. I saw good reviews of this place and something is not adding up.

So freaking good and I am not a shawarma fan. We got the mixed shawarma meal 10/10 baklava 10/19 hummus 9/10 and Potato Harra absolutely amazingly delicious. Very nice and friendly staff.

The food is not that great and the hummus smelt old. Tried it twice and it s not worth it.

We like the chicken shawarma more than the beef

Food was just okay. Pita was stale, salad was old and chicken was okay. Wouldn t go back.

Very friendly service, large portion sizes and a lot of variety, more than most places around York region! Food is great and prices are very reasonable!

I don t normally do reviews but felt I had to do this to warn others. We had placed a party order for beef kebab. It turned out to have a rancid taste. Maybe it had something to do with the grill. We ended up apologizing to our guests. We understand mistakes happen but when we reached out to the restaurant to discuss the problem, they refused to hear us out and they cut off the call. Needless to say, we will not be ordering from this place again as we cannot rely on the quality of food for future orders.

Great food and very big portions!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at a Mediterranean restaurant that left me thoroughly impressed. From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The well-lit dining space created a welcoming ambiance, making it the perfect setting for a delightful meal. The star of the show, of course, was the food. The Mediterranean cuisine offered here was nothing short of exceptional. Each dish burst with authentic flavors that transported my taste buds to the Mediterranean coast. From the perfectly grilled kebabs to the aromatic falafel, every bite was a culinary delight. The menu showcased a diverse range of options for both vegetarians and meat lovers, all at incredibly affordable prices. What truly set this restaurant apart was its quick service. The attentive staff ensured that my order arrived promptly, allowing me to enjoy a satisfying meal without any unnecessary delays. Their efficiency was truly commendable. Moreover, the convenience of parking space near the restaurant was a big plus. It made my dining experience hassle-free and stress-free, knowing that I could easily find a spot to park. Lastly, the portions were generous, ensuring that I left the restaurant with a satisfied appetite. Its rare to find such a balance between quality and quantity, but this Mediterranean gem managed it flawlessly. In summary, this Mediterranean restaurant exceeded my expectations on all fronts. Great food, affordable prices, quick service, a well-lit dining space, and ample parking made for a memorable dining experience. I cant wait to return and explore more of their delectable offerings. If youre in search of a fantastic Mediterranean meal, this place is a must-visit!

Literally the best shawarma in Newmarket, hands down.

I thought I d give this another try since last visit was also a tad underwhelming. Unfortunately, I was let down again. The chicken shawarma was bland accompanied by brown lettuce and spoiled tomatoes. The establishment has a vast selection of food and I want to believe that the other menu items are more flavourful and fresh than the shawarma.

Poor service. Food is ok.

Once I tasted the juicy flavour Chez Talal brought to the table I was very glad. 10/10! Vegetarian options: Felafel and Salad Dietary restrictions: All Halal.

One of our absolute fave shawarma spots in Newmarket/Aurora. First off, the food is very flavorful and portions are large. Second, they are the sweetest, most accommodating people. And lastly they make everything from scratch with simple ingredients! We have a ton of allergies and dietary restrictions when we order sometimes and this is one of the only take out places we can go to because we know absolutely every ingredient. They are amazing and regularly do orders for us for 10+ people. Love them! Dietary restrictions: Fantastic with dietary restrictions as they know every ingredient in their foods.

Ordered a large order for a work lunch. They forgot one meal but that said the food was incredibly good the portions are huge and the price is right.

The chicken shawarma wrap was delicious and the lady at the counter was very friendly and thoughtful. They also had the crispiest fries around The overall atmosphere could be better but had a good time nonetheless. Food

Food was very delecious

Always check your order: I ordered Fries instead of Rice for kids. After coming home finding Rice instead of Fries. Management said it was too late for us to make fries so we replaced it. Never again - food and service both horrible. Dietary restrictions: My kids cannot eat Rice. So decided to feed my dog

Their foods quality was used to be the best in the area but recently visited and seems degraded a bit

The dinner options are really good.

Delicious, great portions! Definitely going again.

Trashy shawarma. Chicken tastes stale. Everything is just sour. Pathetic customer service. Avoid.

The chicken shawarma meal was amazing!! Highly recommend

Really good!

Food is always delicious Vegetarian options: Lots to choose from Parking: Big parking Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access in

Only reason i gave 2 is because they open late but food is pretty gross, not going back!

Great

Not bad

Great food. Love that they have vegan options that are actually equally delicious flavorful. Always fresh and tasty. Vegetarian options: Great options. Staff are knowledgeable about ingredients used and what is vegetarian or vegan friendly. Dietary restrictions: Great vegan options - the falafel meal is amazing. Parking: Lots of parking out front

Im not a fan of this place because the portion of meat they gave isnt good or enough. Its not packed enough. They have good fries. They gave you a pop with the rice platter. I wouldnt eat here again in my opinion.

NEVER AGAIN! We usually love Chez Talal, but I will never order from them again. My husband called ahead with our order for pick-up. After bringing home our wraps, mine was totally wrong. We called and the person I spoke to basically told us too bad, we could come pick-up and pay for a new wrap if we wanted something different. He continued to read off the wrong ingredients and kept telling me he was not in the business of free food, eventually telling me I could come pick up sides of my ingredients and pick out what I didnt like. Then he hung up on me. Sad, since Chez Talal used to be our favourite shwarmas.

Always my favourite shawarma when I come to Newmarket

I actually had a horrible experience here. I got the beef shawarma and it came out of a soggy container where the beef was sitting in. It was cold and tasted like it was a few days old. It was more so like a stew consistency. It was also super dirty all over the floors and in the washrooms. I wouldn t recommend or ever go back.

Thank you so much to Diana and team at Chez Talal! We had a catered lunch at the company, and they did an outstanding job!!! The presentation of the rice, salad trays and the garlic, hummus and baba ghanoush trays was stunningly beautiful! And the food tasted incredible! Everyone at the company enjoyed the food immensely, and Im still being thanked for ordering it! We will definitely be ordering again!

Potatoes are disappointing as they are fried and not traditional. Portion are ok, but light on actual chicken. But, still more enjoyable than some other shawarmas out there.

Decided to give another try to this old favourite restaurant - unfortunately it just proved itself yet again! Dry chicken in shawarma, kinda crunchy. They changed the recipes which is not good at all! When Talal or Mike used to own it - it was our go to place for business lunches and home parties. Not anymore! Tried take out twice and twice big slap in the face with bad quality food.

Excellent customer service, good price ,good taste. Highly recommended

One of the best tasting, best, best value places in the area. The family shawarma meal has become a tradition of sorts for any events in my family. The food is very flavourful and has kept us coming back for more many time over.

Shawarma is decent.

Love the cuisine & food. Their portions & services are amazing too.

*** I have given this place 5 stars before and used to take my friends here till Oct 1 2022, not anymore. The food used to be really Tasty, quantity was really large and great service they had. However this time, the man who served us- messed up the order. Didn t give what we asked, because he forgot to add what we ordered. He neither cared to add. And I feel that the bill came incorrectly and he charged us extra intentionally. I feel cheated. It s not about money, but about the approaches. The service was very poor from him and the quantity and quality was also poor. The ladies who used to be at the counter were so good, which was why we used to visit. Very very disappointed with them.. Wont visit again.

We were served very friendly. Dips including hummus and garlic were very good. Shawarma dishes were decent however just a bit too salty for us.

Best sharwarma in York Region!

Best shawarma Ive ever had. Portions r huge. Tastes homemade and not too heavy. Chicken is tender and the rice is sweet.

Came in for burgers and one was hard as a rock and the other was still frozen in the middle. Instead of making a new burger the guy working just took the burger and put it back on the grill. The burger was not only still frozen but hard as a rock. Won t be returning.

Delicious food, great atmosphere and very nice staff

Chicken shawarma wrap was very mediocre in flavor. Bathroom disgusting.

Everything here is super fresh and service is fantastic with lots of options

We didn t like the food at all ..

Great food, 100% better in every way than all the very average chain places around. I struggle to finish a whole dinner plate, which is priced comsideably lower than the chains also. And I can eat! Run by those that love the food, i have nothing but good things to say. Order online and pickup in store is fast, do not hesitate to try Chez Talal! Vegetarian options: Most of the food is veggie friendly and falafels are a great meat alternative! Parking: Large parking plaza, seems to have spots right in front of the restaurant at all times. Wheelchair accessibility: I believe the resaurant is wheelchair accessible, I dont recall steps and the door seems wide enough.
