Anoush Middle Eastern Cuisine in North York

Dont ever waste your money for this place ,I have to wait 20 min just to get my food and my break time over at 6 .theres 2 guys work at this place and they dont know how to serve line up only 1 person works.food taste and quality is horrible.not coming to this place ever.

They pack up with salads, the price is not worth the amount.

AVOID at all cost! Garbage! FO NOT TRY!!

Food very delicious and good today i get the beef plate just one hour àgo its very delicious and staff very kind service

I had food from here its so good and delicious and very friendly staff..

Overpriced and tasteless food gaslighting customers

Standard take out place, decent prices

annoyed by the inconsistent portion. The portion is already small enough and the guy there always put even less.

Soooo good, like really good

The best beef shwarma in Toronto!

I had Shawarma plate from here. Is so delicious just the right amount of flavors will definitely visit again.

Tried both the beefband chicken shawarma over 2 weeks and must say both are terrible... thought maybe they had a bad day but beef was rubbery and chicken was dry. The person behind the counter shorts some ingredients and the distribution is also really bad. Probably wont ever come back. Orly grill 5 mins down on sheppard is a much better choice portion price and taste wise

Great value for price. Garlic sauce very good and flavorful. Meat was not dry and salad was very refreshing.

reliably good meals.

I was served by a nice lady by the name of Majda, who was very amicable and served everything to my taste. No complaints other than portion size vs. price. For the price, a little more quantity is probably what customers can rightfully expect.

Ordered the shawarma plate as a take-out here. Very generous quantities served - one plate could feed you for a day. The server was helpful and the food was fresh and delicious. Will visit again soon! Parking: Free parking available outside the store.

My favourite shawarma spot. You gotta try the garlic sauce.

Nice middle eastern wraps

Great shawarma. The baklava and fries are generous.

A co-worker recommended this place to me and I decided to try out the food from here. I do not recommend this restaurant. I was not too impressed with their food and the Jalebi. I will not return to this restaurant again.

A persian sharwma dine in take out restaurant. Food is tasty. Ive been there a few times for the chicken sharwma on a pita. Toppings are always fresh, and sauces are tasty. Service is fast, wait time is minimal. Try getting there before or after the school lunch hour. Lots of students. Prices are reasonable. I recommend for a tasty always fresh Persia meal.

Im not one to write reviews very often, in fact I believe this is my first Google review ever. However, after visiting a place Ive been going for years, today I was truly disappointed for the first time here. Anoush is situated right around the corner from my work so I would visit once every week or 2 to pick up a chicken plate. The food was always good, portion was fantastic and the price was very good. In the last year or 2, the prices like everywhere else, took a bit of a hit and thats understandable given rising costs and the current economy, but the portion never took a hit. Today though, was the first time I truly felt ripped off. As I ordered my usual plate, its almost as if the servers count every single leaf of lettuce, grain of rice and piece of chicken. I left with a portion half the size of what Id be given for years and to pay almost $15 for it is just insane. I shouldnt still be starving after dropping that kind of money on a plate of food. Needless to say, this will probably be my last time here, which is a shame considering its one of the only options in the area where you can find something somewhat healthy.

Very good service and taste of food is really wow

Great tasting food, awesome size portion and friendly service!

Worst beef, Shawarma I had in a very long time. The beef was just like rubber (See picture below). if you ask for parsley, they charge you an extra one dollar.

Foods great but the main server behind does not listen to the sauce amount and sometimes shorts on the portions,

unfortunately this has new owners and its just not the same. food is not as tasty and they do not honour the loyalty cards the used to. bbye anoush, we loved you for a long time. you just arent the same.

Very good food and reasonable price

Exilent customer service very fast lane very good taste and price is reasonable highly recommend

Very nice place for family dine in . Every dish is tasty.

Very good service and super food..

Tasty food, and sizable portions, friendly staff

This has been in the area for as long as I can remember (literally, I remember visiting this place back when I was still in high school). Their portions sizes have gotten way smaller through out the years, but they still offer great, fast and affordable middle eastern cuisine. Lots of parking in the vicinity, friendly staff and always clean.

The tastiest Shawarma in the city. Generous portions. Friendly service. I wish they had a bigger sign because I would have visited sooner. This is a somewhat hidden gem and you should try it!

Dont bother. Arrived hour and a half before closing, and the meat was already off the spit, and placed into a serving tray. While already a red flag, Ive been desperate to find a shawarma place nearby. Needless to say, the end result could probably be called a pâté wrap moreso than a shawarma wrap. Very mushy and every ingredient had no definition to it.

Best dine in with clean n calm environment. highly recommended!

A good and economical place to take away, delivery and dine out.

The taste shawrma in tha world

Chicken shawarma platter was great! I wasnt really a fan of their rice and potatos but the quantity and taste are awesome. Rolls are huge here! For the price, its worth it

Compared to other shawarma places in Toronto, Anoushs prices are extremely reasonable and their chicken shawarma plate comes with a LOT of food. Tasty, filling, and great prices too.

i went there approximatly 8 pm .they made wrap for me chicken wrap it was really very tastey . staff was really very friendly for sure go back

Please taste their chicken and potato .must be try really tasty

This place has reasonable prices and really tasty falafel i never tasted before their merinations r really tasty

Absolutely delicious.. great portions and good staff if youre in the plaza skip the mcdonalds and try it! You wont regret it

Damn their shawarma is so good! Been there twice, consistently delicious. Thank you!!

The Chicken shawarma wrap was very disappointing, very dry extremely chewy and hard, not fresh at all...

Our go to. Never disappointed.

Amazing food! Always bring my family and friends would definitely recommend

Tasty food, good prices and friendly employees!

being an 15 years in Gulf region states and love middle eastern cuisine. So, when I moved canada I never get that class and authentic taste. But fortunately I found this cozy restaurant where I find exactly same tasty of middle eastern food what I was looking far with beat service in the town. highly recommended.

I ate lamb kabab . It was delicious .

You get best taste

The food was so yummmy. I would recommend everyone to go and try their garlic potato. So amazing.

Really good

Best place I have ever visited and the food they provide was so good and place was very well organised.

Amazing food, everything is freshly cooked moreover service is amazing

Tasty food, wonderful ambiance, polite staff, perfect food quality Must visit

So yummy food...and quality is also topclass

Amazing place for food! Highly recommended place. One must visit here!

Good food, nice staff, best place to go!!!!

I got the shawarma platter. I found it very delicious with the wide variety of different salads to select. The chicken itself was very juicy and not greasy. Their customer service is really good. Highly recommend this place!

oh my god there food is so so yummy really loved it.. the customer service was excellent. i would love to go again there

The best middle Eastern cuisine in the town so far... Best in food service and also the prep time is so less.. I love the staff understanding amongst each other .. Much appreciated.. Must visit

I ordered a tabouli salad which was basically parsley that was not chopped a little bit of tomato and some onion there was no dressing or bulgur. The girl offered to add salad dressing, which anyone who has had Middle Eastern food knows it already should have some olive oil and lemon juice and you do not add salad dressing to tabouli. Basically I couldve gone to a grocery store, bought a bag of parsley and chewed On it in my car for a fraction of the price and the taste wouldve been the same. The chicken leg was cold and dried up and it was only 4:15 in the afternoon so if this was dinner it mightve been from the night before. Overall it was a horrible experience save your money.

I went there with my friends we had tabouli Its was really god and i think they have best in the town there saled make so tasty

Amazing place Amazing people Best in class service

Great shawarma!

It was a delightful dining experience with incredible tastes and top- of- the - line service. Food was delicious and atmosphere unique. Best dishes to eat and remember for a long time.

Very fantastic place, very delicious food with very nominal price, very cooperative and punctual staff.

Such a clean and a peaceful environment that everybody would like to have.. Available for everyone family,couples or friends.. One of the best place to have dinner!! I guess everyone should go for it!

Ill highly recommend this place for family specially, really luv the food...

Amazing food! Mutton Fish,Chicken Roast are the best.

Had dinner with them, fantastic service and food quality was very good. Thanks for your service.

Food is delicious & excellent

This is an outstanding place for real food lovers.Service is very good and smooth.Sitting arrangement and ambiance is quitr cool. Loved it. Above all the food taste is waoo.

I had Chicken Kabob with my friends and it was quite delicious.

Fresh food Very well mannered staff. Nice n clean environment Refreshing experience:)

awsm food awsm environment. Very friendly staff. Definitely I m trying again. You should go and try your self too.

Top food and well maintained place clean and nice.

The people Here are very friendly and the food tastes Amazing !! must visit place for middle eastern food lovers !!

Great food, good portions, and even clean bathrooms. This restaurant clearly cares about their food and their staff. Only two complaints is that my lamb was kinda tough and my potatoes were quite soggy, but they both tasted very good so its fine. Very satisfied with this restaurant and was an excellent way for me and my friend to start 2020.

Food quality leaves a lot to be desired. There are some smells coming of the salads that shouldn t. Meat is tasteless. Service was fast but the workers look super tired and stressed with grim faces and therefore the whole experience is unpleasant. Probably an ok place for an occasional bite but personally don t see myself returning, given much better choices in the area.

Its meh, will not bother going again.

I always come here for the lamb kabob plate when visiting Toronto. It is very good.

Good, healthy and delicious food.

Below average food taste and lady owner had attitude not friendly and zero customer service

Food is delicious, Specialty is Chicken Shawarma and Falafel I liked it so much.

this p;ace is very dirty ,,their portion is small ,rice taste so awfull, this was very bad place i have ever been..please everyone dont waste your money for this place.

Delicious chicken shawarma platter! Very large portion size, relatively cheap and friendly service

Their beef shawarma is good. Portions of meat is also good. However, I dont like the chicken very much, as it feels it could be done more -- because chicken fat still remains and worsens the taste.

High quality chicken and rice. Loved it.

Mediocre food. Bait n switch pricing. Price on overhead menu apparently negated by a small poster above salad bar.

Truth is it was the worst shawarma place Ive ever been to in my life. Disgusting after taste in mouth that I needed to rinse out with water ( seriously). I feel bad giving such a bad rating but its true ¯\_( )_/¯

Shawarma was tasteless, falafel was dry... wasted money here...

Great food, lovely staff.

Solid food, friendly service. Food is flavoured correctly and consistently. Portions are on point. Try it you ll be back again

Ive had better swarma elsewhere. But its not bad. It sure is better then McDonalds across the parklinglot.. I will eat here again.

Good food

Employees are rude

Not terrible but the food was lukewarm and the guy from Uber said he complained about it being lukewarm and the lady gave him attitude. I did wait 45 minutes to get my food, but I didnt realize when I ordered that it was closing in 45 minutes so who knows. Ive eaten here before it was great this time though there wasnt a lot of chicken shawarma and only 1 or 2 potatoes.

Good freshly made food

Ordered a chicken breast skewer. Chicken was not white meat like they said. Left a bad taste in my mouth. Staff tell you things cost extra, after they add it to your plate.

Great food, nice people, good value, great wifi too.

Great food. Great prices!

It was my first time there, I have ordered chicken shawarma but waiter didnt allowed me to eat there. She said that they are closing. I got my to go and wait outside 10-15 mins but they were still open !!! Another thing is there are 2 different bones inside of my shawarma. Taste was good, but customer service and bones are no.

There are better middle Eastern places that serve larger, and tastier plates for lesser ..

Good price. Good food. Recommended

Its good

Great place! And were gracious enough to let us bring our own containers and reduce disposables going into landfill

Good food. I like it a lot

Not bad , cold potatoes! Overall not bad but their potatoes were cold which didnt make this a pleasant first visit experience!

When you order a chicken shawarma, they give more potatoes than actual chicken. They put so little chicken its ridiculous..

The staff lady today was super rude, did not like her tone when I was ordering. Food is ok with a reasonable price. They need to treat their costumer with more respect.

I went in and ordered a Chicken Shawarma wrap and as I was watching, I saw the lady pack it in a paper and then grilling it and thought that it was weird. I did not question it then but after I sat down to eat it, I saw that the paper was literally glued to the shawarma. I pointed it to her and she told that I should have opened it another way and laughed loudly trying to blame me for what she did wrong. There was only one way to open it and besides, paper grilled to the shawarma is not going to change however I opened it. She did not apologize although she took it back and made me another one. I made sure that she grilled it without the paper this time. I wouldnt have had a problem if she had apologized for it. She laughed at a customer in front of other customers for not opening the wrap the right way when she clearly did not know how to grill. Would never go back.

Reasonable prices but the falafel sandwich was very bland and dry. There are much better middle eastern places in the area.

What a shame. Unseasoned, no sauce, and dry. We got both chicken shawarmas and falafel, and were disappointed. Lots of veggies, enough meat/falafel, but unfortunately no taste. Garlic potatoes were the only good things we got. A couple pieces were undercooked, but generally great taste. I hope they season and sauce their pitas the same way.

Good price, decent food, and a quiet place to sit for a chat. They have free wifi but so does Starbucks next door. Nothing really memorable.

best Shawrma I have ever had

Ive never eat bad shawarma like this in my life

I keep going back to this place to give it one more chance but it keeps getting worse. They have the rotisserie equipment, but Ive never seen them use it. They get the chicken from a metal bin instead of carving it off the skewer. They also dont have a pannini press anymore so they crisp the pita by putting it directly on a flat top without wrapping it in anything... this gave the pita a very musky smell and didnt really warm anything on the inside.

Quality of food is okay, not great, portion size varies wildly based on whos working (eg. 1 spoon of meat vs 3 spoons of meat, same dish different employee). Prices are reasonable, and food is tasty

Good shawarma place

Dont even try this place.

One of the best places to grab a quick lunch in the area. If you become a regular, dont forget to get a stamp card.

Amazing food made from scratch.

One of our favorite places to grab a delicious dinner and head home!

Great service and tasty food.

Huge portions

Great food and amazing portion sizes. Would recommend for a quick bite. Not much seating room unfortunately but its not super busy normally so its fine.

Tiny, bustling, delicious. I was lucky to get a seat.

Very tasty food Nice portion in less price Price is stable from long time Lots of verity . Very good

Excellent chicken shawarma. Decent price. Quick service.

large portions, good price. tasty food. so much variety on a single plate.

I had the Chicken shawarma in a pita. The woman working there does not speak English very well. It was not the best shwarma I have ever had but it certainly was not the worst I have ever had either.

Pretty solid chicken shawarma. Good bang for your buck

Food was delicious and fresh. Service was very quick. I wish there were more tables though because it gets very cramped

Go here 1-2 times per week for some good food and a quality price. The chicken and salad are both very good.... i also like the potatoes but they could use a little less oil (partially avoid by asking for potatoes at the top).

To be fair this is based on an Uber Eats transaction yet this is based on the food order itself. Recently, we made an order via Uber Eats for our food. The food selections did sound good. What came to follow was unreasonable. All our food orders were incorrect. A dish ordered, had extra hot sauce which was not required by one eater. Another had tzatziki to which the eater could not have based on serious allergy concerns. Its packaging was even labelled no tzatziki. The eater requested for no tzatziki. Another dish had hardened beef that was way overcooked. Plus, another eater that requested hot sauce and tzatiki, did not have hot sauce and tzatziki as that eater did request. It is awful that we experienced such lack of care towards the attention of the dishes. If it was one dish in error that was made, things happen. Yet, for every dish, it was too much to bear.

The young woman who served my friend and I was VERY rude. The woman was gossiping to her co-worker about us, but what she didn t know is that my friend speaks the same language. When my friend questioned her about it, she was shocked and said nothing. We still bought our food and left, but after going here for food for years...I will not back.

I think it may have changed owners or management. Used to go quite regularly but lately its completely different.

Fresh food, clean environment. Fairly priced . My My only complaint would be for a wider selection of drinks. I love the food and I eat here often .

Good food, nice people and great service

Fantastic schwarma!

See edit at bottom.... This is the second time Ive ordered from Anoush and both times the food has been bland, old, soggy, and I didnt receive what I ordered. The falafel is dry and bland. The hummus is runny. The garlic sauce tastes like chemicals. The garlic potato sauce looks like cheese and is incredibly oily. The portion sizes are horrible- the plate isnt worth it. You get more bland, store-bought fries or salad than you do actual Middle Eastern food. Dont waste your money here- its not worth it. Edit: ordered from here 6 months after my original review. I wanted to give it another chance as others I had spoken to said it was good. Well, nothing has changed. The falafel sandwich tastes okay but could use more filling. The falafel itself is soggy though. Some of the potatoes were overcooked and some were undercooked. The garlic sauce was oily. The fries were basically frozen fries and the best part of the meal. Now, the baklava... It is the worst baklava I have ever tasted! It is pre-packaged meaning they dont actually control the quality of it. There were no nuts or filling in it- just a bunch of phylo. It tasted exactly (I am not exaggerating) as cardboard. I am not leaving this review just to complain- Im pretty easy going when it comes to food. But this place does not know what good, real Middle Eastern cuisine tastes like! Horrible quality and I will never give it a second chance.

Staff was not friendly at all. A girl with awful Indian accent works there and is not friendly. The food was not delicious.

Nice meals and seating

Amazing customer service! Friendly staff and comfortable environment. Delicious food, loved it. Highly recommended! Must go. :)

A good place if you want a quick bite. I recommend visiting, friendly sellers, wonderful atmosphere. Free internet access.

Good quality food for the price. I usually go for their kebobs plates and for $10 a plate with salad and rice/potatoes food is really good.

It was good experience

I personally liked the food. Priced nice . Nothing special.

This is one of my regular haunts. Service and food is always top notch.

I had falafel n it was my worst experience. I left that in plate n rushed out n i never wanna go back.

Not a good place for middle eastern dishes. Did not like the shawermas or the falafels.

Nothing spectacular and better options in the area.

Ok food not good not bad

Ive been there a few times but the quality seems to have gone down. Lots of better options nearby

Food use to be much much better, but now its just ok! Isnt worth the price for the quality given!

Found atleast 2 hairs in my food.. and had to insist they use gloves when making my food this place is gross do not recommend!

Food is just ok, but its not a clean place to eat

If you are looking for a variety in your regular shawarma plate, this is the place. I ordered shawarma plate abd it has so much different stuff in it. Total variety. Recommended

I had a chicken shawarma sandwich and I got 2 large pieces of cartilage in my one sandwich: it was disgusting. The costumer service was also terrible: the woman who served me barely spoke to me and it felt like she hates her life and doesnt want to be there. Well dont take it out on my lady: youre scaring away the costumes with your attitude.

I got the lamb kebab here, it was quite tender but didnt taste like much. The portions are big and the coleslaw is quite good. Not a bad place for a quick lunch but nothing really memorable either.

I usually get the chicken shawarma plate and its always been good. Everything tastes fresh.

Very tasty! Reasonably priced.

I came in ths restuarant for the first time. Both servers ignored me waiting for several minutes. When a man entered the restaurant he was served immediately. When I pointed out that I had been waiting first, the server who waited on the male client made a wide variety of excuses for her sexist behaviour. Eventually I got my food, the quality of it was good but I will never go there again. It was not worth the headache.

OK service, terrible shawarma. Contrary to some of the other reviews, I had no issues with the service here. However I really did not enjoy the chicken shawarma; the chicken had too much fat and cartilage in it. The taste was rather bland as well.

They forgot the garlic sauce for the garlic potatoes..the frigging key element of the place . I was also missing an item as well as cans substituted for the expensive price of a bottled beverage.. food is decent but very disappointed as I wanted to give you guys a chance!
