Amazing food and service. I always stop here when I'm in the area.
Have been visiting this store from the past 3 years close to my work, but recently the staff has been changed and they apparently doesn't know how to cater customers. The new service lady there is so rude and sassy, way too much to be working in the food industry. Will never visit this store again. Thank you for your service for 3 years.
Amazing middle eastern food and super friendly staff. The flavours are so authentic and delicious. Very happy we stopped in here. Chicken shawarma was quite a bit better than the beef shawarma though.
Our first impression, characterized by the delicious smell of the food prepared there, was counteracted by the condition of the establishment. The floor was filthy, the carpets dirty and the furnishings rather carelessly maintained. The vegetables were old, the mayonnaise and an indefinable sauce in the display must have been there for hours and showed clear signs of drying out. The meat on the skewers gave the impression of mummification. All in all, unfortunately, not at all inviting.
One of the last eateries that still sells a Shish Tawouk ! Excellent quality. Delicious sandwich.
I must have driven by this place millions of times and finally decided to stop in for a chicken shawarma. I went on a Monday so I was able to get two shawarma's and a coke for 20 bucks with the tip. The ladies were amazing friendly and helpful. The chicken shawarma was okay.
I used to seek out shawarma places, and every one I have gone to in the last 2 years, the product looks like this in picture. If I just wanted to taste pita, I would go out and buy a pack of pitas.
Beef shawarma platter. portion wise and tasted decent. Staff attended our order well.
The chicken shawrama I bought here is just ok Itt was lacking sauce.
Very welcoming the food potions are good size and it tastes great.
Kashar Karloz I will come to your shop, coach.
Not much to say
Great falafel
Mar ct channel like ali baba
Very dry food.
Amazing food!
Great food for the price
Good, friendly staff, tasty food
Friday special 2 chicken plates $28, great price compared to others around
The food and service is always great here.
I have nothing good to say about this restaurant.
Excellent beef shawarma
Not fresh veggies I would have given them -10 if I could get a chance
Tasty beef shawarma
Food was fresh and tasty, not all locations are good but this one was delicious.
Chicken is dried for wrap
Very poorly maintained property. The toilet was in bad shape. Service was about okay.
One of the best Shawarma s that I have ever had .
The rice is not as good as the one st weston rd and finch, but i was hungry
The food and service was great the employees was very friendly. The restaurant it self was a bit out dated. Highly recommend eating the food it wont disappoint!
I liked the shwarma, I feel the finch and weston branch has much better taste. I would still give this place a 4 star rating, set up is okay.
Friendly staff, great food.
If you want to have one of the worst shawarmas youll ever have in your life, o to literally any Ali Babas location. Trustt me. No offense it just really sucks for real.
Make sure on of the ladys make your sandwich. Great beef shawarma!
First time I went there was for convenience - close to where I work. But the food is great, and the owners give great service. Love their daily specials.
They call this a lentsl soup noting in it no flavor everything over priced would not go back
Horrible,, dirty and rude. Food Quality at lowest.
The beef tastes and looks like ground up dog food, it was brown mush, worse than Taco Bell. Maybe the chicken is better/edible.
Best falafel platter and wrap. Delicious middle eastern food.
They delivered falafel platter and chicken shwarma. Portion was smaller in both cases. Store at Finch/Weston had larger portions.
Food was okay not bad, however the quantity is seriously lacking. The amount that is being charged for items should be justified. York shawarma has the same prices and almost double quantity. This was a first and last experience with them .
Small portions and no flavour
Friendly Staff. Good food.
Not clean and portions are smaller than before
Excellent shawarma! Very good service!
Advertising as open on Sunday (at 4 pm), but noone at the location.
I heard good things about this place but was not impressed with the chicken shawarma
Great food. Theyre shawarmas are the best Ive ever had. Inside of store could use a makeover for dining in but other than that great stuff.
Ordered beef shawarma and the portion is better compared to other places. The taste is ok as well.
Delicious shawarma platter
Excellent chicken shawarma!!
The shwarma here is very tasty.
Quite a miserable area. The place was closed at 10 am however it says opens 9 am. The name says it all.
Poor service
Love their chicken quarter dinner, wish it was a little cheaper but good.. They are very generous with the salad at this specific location..
Shawarma beef is amazing
The best place to have a quick bite. They always have fresh everything and great deals for everyday menu. Would recommend Falafel Wrap if you are vegetarian always fresh.
I ll not recommend anyone to go this place. They expect their customers to buy food here and use washroom somewhere else
Love it
Let me start with the food at Ali Babas is very tastey over all but there are some things that bother me...I was at this location (Steeles Ave near Weston) last week, where they have tables and chairs lined up in front of the food counter so as to keep customers 2m away(covid safety) but there is a gap in between. When I walked in there was a person standing in that gap for quite some time as he ordered many wraps. The staff said nothing to remind him to stand back 6ft. At the Rexdale location another guy was reaching over the glass to directly point at the toppings he wanted! I mean seriously!? And no one says anything to them!? The glass is see through and its there to keep contaminants out! Another thing that bothers me about them, but not many other places are different, is that they dont spread the toppings evenly through the length of the wrap... every bite is different! They also need to be a little more organized when serving customers I think... its like one takes your order and starts making your wrap then the other will move in and work in it, then the first person gets back in there to finish and take your money. Again though, very tastey food and my favourite shawarma chain in the GTA. Best tasting beef shawarma(some dont even have beef), best and actual tabouleh salad/topping (not just parsley) and pickled red cabbage topping are why I will be back!
Good place to grab a quick bite friendly staff
Rude Associate talking different way to other customers. Dont wanna say so much.would never go beck this place. I am doing this so they can learn and correct them self.give them same respect to all customers .
Food was delicious, the decor could use some work.
Food is decent for the price.
Great falafels!
Less quantity Zero taste Worst customer service Highly priced
Great friendly service will delicious falafels.....love this place. one of my favorite place.
Reasonable prices, friendly staff but the food is not fresh especially vegetables for the shawarma sandwich, old & saggy
Delicious, healthy, reasonably priced food served with a smile.
Food is very good. Went for lunch while it the area...
Near by location to industrial area!
Other Ali baba locations have better quality than this location
Nice service and great food
Veggie wrap was great, come back for sure
Doesn t looks fresh at all. Salad looks like dying and food portion is very less!
Super fast and tasty food.
Can be a better place, have more fresh salad options, veg garnishes, variety of sauces
Chicken Shwarma platters on Fridays are a great lunch!
Worst place ever tried for shawarma
Delicious food, amazing service!
We have been going to Ali Babas for a long time. We went to this location last month and wasnt satisfied by the service. The best one is in downtown near Dundas.
Food was horrible. No taste. Burnt chicken . Dehydrated
I love their everyday specials
Good food nice people
Great friendly, quick service, great food quality with a good value

Best shawarma
Good food and nice daily specials.
Nice food
They stuff clean giving good service
Good quality food
Very good. Spices were not what I was used to, but it was still very good.
Not good place for shawarmas. I just had Falafel wrap so dry, no sauce even though I asked for extra sauce. I called in to report and the lady asked me to come back but to be frank I would never go back to this place. I recommend people to be present while they prepare your wraps or even if you can avoid falafel it will be good for you.
My favorite location
Food is good but service very slow.
Amazing experience!! Will definitely return
Since their business started booming they are making their wraps and other servings smaller, a typical Third World mentality. I will NOT recommend this place if they are going to be cheap with the portions.
Very helpful staff in times of confusion
Absolutely delicious food. Great for people who are dairyfree!
I like ali baba, they have rice and lentils as one of the options for a side dish. Also their wraps are very full, this location is great because its on steeles ave on the way from brampton to Vaughan and markham
Good food for change, or regular lunch..
Goof
Food is great, there is a lady who provides good customer service and makes really good wraps as well.
Very nice and tasty food
I walked in and there was a rude customer and no one did nothing to help me while I was being disrespected by this rude customer who was yelling over the phone to The person on the other end . Selection of vegetables was lacking as the lettuce was brown and NOT fresh. I previously been another ali baba location in downtown and the quality is complete 360 as the vegetables and sides are not fresh but brown. And you expect me to pay for this??
Absolutely delish! We ordered some of everything and loved it all!
Food doesn t taste gd, they had no pickles which is common with shawarma. Garlic taste like mayonnaise. I am from lebanon and this doesn t taste middle eastern at all.
Food was great! Busy spot however the line moves quickly! Will be back
Worst. I reached through 15 min drive and it was closed. Although google mentioned to be open for
I am giving them 1 star because of their food quality . I got food poisoning from the beef shawarma platter . I knew something wrong with the meat when I had it . Seems they are using last days meat again . I have had shawarmas before from other Alibaba locations and had great experience.
Great tasting food, it my go-to spot when I am in Woodbridge.
Great.
A great lunch option. The food is fast and fresh. Im a big fan of their falafel and the shwarma is great too.
I visit this place quite often and never disappointed. However, today i ordered the falafel wrap and in return I got chicken wrap. I believe the person at the end of order processing line was new and it was busy, as usual, so made this mistake. I believe restaurants are meant to be busy during pick hours and the orders are to be served by the trained person. No complaints but the suggestion. Good luck!
Never had any problems with their shawrma had to wait 20 minutes to make a shawarma poutine today and the cheese was old. Staff served 4 other people after me.
Good price, Abbar makes good food everyday and price is very very good! Recommend for while entire family!
Ali baba food is very nice and amazing am so happy for that food successful service u guys nice chicken i appreciate that thank u
