We are big Tahini fans, just not this location. We were so excited to see one open closer to us... but have been left disappointed 3 times. No more chances! Today we received food with black paint chips and what looks like green synthetic hair. Portions are not like other locations... all around just skip this location, we've had better experiences at the North Oshawa and North Whitby locations.

Very bad experience. Food tasted bad, gyro was horrible, chicken was dry, quantity was so little. I asked for extra tomatoes, extra pickles and they did not out anything extra as per my request. They did not have any containers for the hot sauce to be on the side, they did not have any knives so I can split my sandwich with my mother, did not have ketchup for the fries, no plates for dine in !!!! Will never go there again. Other locations are way better than this one

I’ve been a tahinis customer for a very long time and today when I came here for lunch,I don’t know if they just serve half filled large bowls. It’s half bowl that they gave me for 19$. I even asked them about the quantity before leaving and they said that’s what they serve. Such a waste of money. Never coming back here again. Everyone else who’s thinking to come to this branch. It’s better to drive 5 more minutes and go to a different branch and get value meal for the money you pay.

1st experience only to disappoint. Ordered 3 meals, asked to hold hot sauce onions and a few other items on a wrap only to find nothing was held. 2nd dish literally had one tomato even though I asked for more since it was a free topping. Order took extra long to prepare as well.

October 11, 2024

Went to this location last night. Ordered my food and I 100% put no tip in as I don’t tip until after I eat my food always. The price for my meal was around $19 but I noticed I was getting charged $23. When my food got served to me I asked for the receipt which took around 2 mins as the man wanted to print off a new receipt that said the $19 not the $23. I knew all along what they were doing as other stores close by warn be about how sketchy the 2 gentlemen working are. I asked and approached them and he said it was a tip. I said I didn’t give a tip and right away he gave me my money back. I won’t be coming back here as that is theft and will be reaching out to higher up in regards to this.

Food was amazing no doubt about that.. tried their jerk chicken rice bowl, gyro wrap and messy fries, everything was delicious, properly cooked. Ample space if you want to dine in, more than enough parking space outside. Only thing that needs improvement is indoor atmosphere/ambiance and the furniture; it's outdated and boring.

After having had a Tahini's experience at their Pickering location I was eager to have it again at their Oshawa location which recently opened. More or less the experience was the same but I do have to comment on how large and open the Oshawa location is. It's very nice and welcoming. The menu boards are easy to read even with a group full of people ahead of you. Today I ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and decided on "old school" toppings and medium level of hot sauce. The food did not disappoint. I find the chicken to have a nice flavour and the flavours of the pickled vegetables really is evident when taking bites out of the wrap. It tastes fresh and delicious. I have to comment on the wrap itself. It is just a great bread product. Very tasty. Has a great crunch to it after spending a small amount of time getting toasted. It's definitely the deciding factor over why I'd choose dining at Tahini's over other similar food joints.

I decided to give Tahinis a shot on their grand opening day to take advantage of their 50% discount. They were busy! But they had an efficient system and the wait wasn’t too long after ordering. The atmosphere is nice if you choose to dine in. My food was flavourful and they provided a lot of chicken in my Butter Chicken Bowl. My personal opinion was that the chicken was a little too jiggly for me and lots of pieces with connective tissue, which took away from the overall enjoyment. However, the portion size is generous and the rice, toppings and sauce were flavourful. I would good back to try a different bowl with a different protein when I get the next protein & rice craving.

I tried tahinis on Ritson Extremely disappointing. I dont like to throw out food but I had to ask i could not eat it. The chicken was all cartilage and the portion was ridiculously small.The best Tahinis is the Courtice location.What a waste of $15.00 Sorry but hope you take the feedback constructively so you can improve and not waste peoples money

December 1, 2024

tried it for the first time today. its ok, the sauces are pretty yummy but i found the sauce to be lacking even though i ordered extra and the meat has a lot of fat and cartilage on it (which i know some people like just not me). will probably stick to osmows for a shawarma chain

We ordered a few Shawarmas and a Maya Salad. Shawarma meat was served cold as we dined it. The bread itself was chewy unlike Osmows or Shelbys. Salad was horrible for $12, absolutely disgusting.

Ate in, had difficulty hearing the cashier as I placed my order and I think she had difficulty hearing me. Ate in, food took quite a long time to be prepared and was only barely warm. The washroom needed attention and when I told the ladies behind the counter as I picked up my food they just shrugged their shoulders.

Initial thought.. Tahini as a brand is worth trying. Food was just average. We were served better Poutine in Costco than Tahini. It was double the salt and just too average. We also ordered Pita bread. Instead of serving on a plate, we were given 2 pita breads in a polythene bag to eat. Highly unprofessional and disrespectful. Not sure if we will ever visit this location again. Karan and Kabir were just too tired with absolutely no smiles on their faces. Not welcoming. Not Recommended.

I ordered chicken salad and there was not enough chicken in it. Maybe a few pieces. I ate literally normal salad without chicken. My husband ordered chicken shawarma plate and it was good.

Ordered a chicken shawarma wrap because the cashier indicated the gyro was frozen. After waiting about 15 minutes I got my wrap -not packaged securely to go very dry and over-cooked chicken, not flavourful, wrapped in a dry and crumbly pita. Waste of money I used to love Tahinis.

I got falafel wraps delivered today from this place and got large size. This thing was huge! I dont know if it was an error, Ill try again in the future, but if its consistent to what I got today, this place will become my go to place!! The wrap itself was delicious and I normally eat very slow. But today, I couldnt stop a beat while eating. If its not the same size in the future it will still be worth it and this review will be updated.

I recently visited this location and requested the Shawn Special after being informed by the staff that it included both rice and fries, unlike the Habibi Bowl. However, when I got home, I discovered there were no fries just rice. After some research, I found out that the Shawn Special is no longer on the menu and has been replaced by the Shawn Bowl. Additionally, there was only one staff member handling both orders and food preparation during peak dinner time. I hope they address these issues to improve the overall experience.

Tell that guy to change his attitude , you ll lose customers like this!!! Bye never to this location again

I ordered through Uber eats, I paid extra to add feta, didn t receive feta, and my lettuce was brown and cucumbers were soggy. I was very un impressed considering I spent $20 with Uber eats. This so also the second time eating at the restaurant. The first time my falafels were burnt . I wanted to give it another chance. Sure enough I was disappointed again. I will never go back!

March 22, 2024

Absolute nastiest food you can have . Don t buy from this place. They don t know how to make good wraps. I asked for the beef lamb gyro- disgusting !!!!! I told them to put extra lettuce instead of onions and tomatoes cause I can t eat those and they added a WHOLE lot of meat instead and a string of lettuce which was barely visible . It was so overly meaty- I wanted to throw up. On top of that, they added cheap hot sauce and there was no flavour. I rad the reviews beforehand was skeptic but still went . But never again. No wonder they are doing so poorly and the reviews are bad . They hire some young students in there that have no idea how to cook. Don t go here if you want nice food. Nasty!!!!!

★★
March 22, 2024

The quantity of chicken that they put in has decreased substantially. Earlier, the regular size was quite large with lot of rice and chicken. Now, they have drastically reduced the amount of chicken. Would not recommend Tahinis especially the one at Ritson Road. You could get better quality and quantity of chicken on rice in other restaurants. Also make sure they have put in everything that you ordered.

Delicious food and is probably the best shawarma place in Oshawa so far. Sometimes you might wait too long or get almost no sauce, but its worth it kind of

March 22, 2024

I ordered online and it was supposed to be ready at 6:55 from 204 Ritson N location. I arrived on time and they tell me it will take another 5 minutes. There was a lady infront of me who after a long wait asked the guy if the food will take longer and he told her another 5 minutes. She told him that she waited for 15 minutes already. He told her if you dont like it you can leave. This is when I was furious with the attitude from the server. I had to wait for 20 minutes too. This is not a way to treat customers, especially when you order a pickup the restaurant is telling you the food will be ready at a certain time. I told the guy this is not a way to treat the customers and he is giving a bad reputation for the cuisine. I think the staff need a lot of training, not only on how they should treat customers, but how to make the food. My fries were put in the fryer after my three sandwiches were fully made. So I had to wait longer to get the fries.

March 22, 2024

I order Jamaican chicken rice with skip to eat as iftar but its smelly, taste totally stale. May be 1-2days old food. Now I have to throw it in dusbin. If possibIe I could give them minus star. I will report this to food and safety board to inspect them.

Unpleasant Experience with Dishonest Staff We recently visited this restaurant and had a disappointing experience. The staff claimed that menu prices had changed from what was displayed on the screen, leading to unexpected charges. Shockingly, we witnessed a customer being threatened and asked to leave after complaining about the quality of his food. I strongly recommend the management to conduct an immediate audit of their staff to address such issues and salvage the business from such rude behavior.

Stepped into Tahinis as in the past, we have had pleasant experiences in Scarborough, Vaughn, etc. We were quite surprised to find this one completely empty as weve always lined up in other branches. Anyways, we proceeded with placing our order and picked Kafta large plate and Shawarma wrap. We were told regular came with 2 kaftas and large came with 3. We picked for the large size. We sit in the diner waiting for our turn when the server who took our order approaches us. He mentions hes new and wasnt aware of the fact that the rates displaying on the screen were old and as per the new change...large comes with 2 instead of 3 kaftas. My husband was upset, but I asked him to let it go as it seemed like an honest mistake. The shawarma was below average, dry meat, khubs bread was chewy, and the kaftas were literally questionable interms of taste and quality. As we were stepping out, we saw a customer complaining that the food he received was unsatisfactory and he wanted to speak to the manager bout it. One of the servers literally lost his mind and started yelling at the customer charging on the customer saying that If you like the foood you eat, if you dont like it then throw it but dont come to us saying our food is not good! By this time there were 5 more people in the restaurant and all of us were shocked ! The server was extremely frustrated and irritated at his job. I honestly dont get it...why do you work when you hate what youre doing? Zero customer service. The customer was handling the matter very well so none interfered, but boy...that was embarrassing to encounter. Never ever stepping into this place again. Well, they wouldnt care either as thats what was told on that customers face! SO WELL...

Just left with a $15 chicken poutine. Get it hone to find huge chunks of clear gelatinous material covering the food. The gravy looked like it had been sitting out for 2 days. Never again. The chicken looked good, but I wasnt digging through clear slime to get to it.

Quantity is a joke, barely any chicken in the bowls.

January 22, 2024

Absolutely a rip off for the price they charge you and what they serve you. Food was not great but ok thats why I used to order and now they suddenly change the bowl and size of the bowl is so small that it wont have the half of the food what they served before they serve in a baby bowl which hardly contains any food like common even to give rive which cost literally like less than 50c they dont want to give that and forget about the chicken some shreds here and there while each dish is more than $15 + Its all dry rice you get and they dont want to give any sauce. Seriously never going back and not recommending to anyone. At least you should get food what you pay for. Very bad experience. Disappointed.

January 22, 2024

Worst service en Oshawa!! They took forever to make my order even toogh the store was practically empty. For some reason they started to make the order for people that came after me, when I approached to asked why my order was taking so long, the girls response was your order is not ready, take it or leave, is your decision Avoid this place.

I m done eating, still waiting. Told it ll be a minute. Goes on and on. They re taking time out of my day and won t even discount the food such that they could provide change with what they had. I won t be back. Definitely avoid it.

Disappointing on the VERY little amount on my shawarma. For $9 will not go back. Smaller shops around Oshawa that are way better in taste and size for money.

Very slow while waiting to receive my order. Ordered a Maya salad bowl that I was charged 5$ more for than what is on the menu. Asked what toppings I d like on the salad and was charged for those too without being told the are .50 per topping. I was also charged for toppings that are advertised on bowl.

First time trying this location. Generally they have tasty food and a great selection to choose from. The jerk chicken was delicious. Their poutine us also is amazing. I really like this place and their dishes. The chicken was cooked perfectly. They really listen to what you order and we had 6 people in our party.

Just one suggestion for the owners. Please dont over wrap the shawarma, the extra pita layer is like rubber when trying to take one bite, and everything falls out. It also shows your saj pitas are not always fresh. Thanks.

December 22, 2023

When you order online. It isnt ready for pick up. After half hour. The reciept order just sits there and then you need to explain the order to them. What a disaster, wont order from here again!

Amazing experience, customer service was excellent, and the food is good as always. Vegetarian options: Falafel wrap/bowl Samosas - vegetarian Parking: Strip mall parking with plenty of spots. Note, it does get busy during lunchtime, which then limits the spaces Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible wheelchair door and everything is on the ground floor.

One of the worst shawarmas ever I bought shawarma bowl fries and a side and shawarma they didn t even grill it the tortilla was so cold the chicken. Taste like they threw it in the garbage and then the served it to me it smells so bad to the fact that I got sick the same night after I ate it. The worst shawarma ever and worst experience in my life and never going back their

Ordered at 1:45pm. At 1:57 I went up to see what was going on. Find out they tossed my order slip in the trash so it never got started. There were 3 other people in the restaurant who were already eating and no orders before me. I try to give local restaurants a shot since recently moved to the area. Im going to go ahead and pass on this place indefinitely. Your experience may be better, I dont know. 2:03 I got the order. No apologies or anything.

★★★★★
December 22, 2023

The food was awesome, more than I expected, Ill come here again, I saw theres one guy who added a review of getting the order late cuz his receipt was mistakenly thrown in the garbage, nd im guessing that he only added the review of his order being delayed named by the name plus bones but he also added that he didnt got apologies for that, i was standing right beside him, the guy actually apologized maybe he didnt listen, but Im sure he liked the food and he will definitely come back next time wearing some other dress just to not get recognized, as he looked willing to eat the wrap again I saw him eating wrap in the parking very gladly like a child with Tahini dripping from side of his mouth.

Great place for shawarma , food is fresh fast and made to order. Extensive menu. They have gyros, shawarma butter chicken , and jerk chicken as wraps or bowls.

December 22, 2023

We ordered more than $110 and had 2 fries in the order when we got to the store they said they are running out of fries and they offered a soup. The fries were for my kids they didnt want the soup. How a big shawarma store is running out of fries on a weekend ? Very poor management and the food was also cold at least 2 of the wraps and 2 of the wraps had wrong toppings so totally waste of money and disappointment!!

After my son ordered, the employee told us we could have how the gyro comes or customized. We answered and she didnt seem to accept our answer easily. Too simple I guess... While making she kept asking us if we were sure we didnt want xyz.. While we waited we went to sit in a booth however both booths were not cleaned Open area clean. When she came around the counter her shirt and pants were highly filthy. While my son was eating, I noticed the can of aerosol bug spray on top of the soda fridge . Signs for Uber Eats, Skip the Dishes, and Door Dash were displayed. Wifi password for displayed. A Bitcoin ATM is located inside the restaurant!

They are slow as like crazy like there were just 4 people infront of me with 4 wraps and fries and thats all still i had to wait like 30 min for my one habib bowl they really need to improve their customer services and wait time. I tried to call the store to place a pick up order however there is no one to pick up the call. They really need to work on their wait time.

Honestly do not order large it s all BREAD! Not with a single penny if you ask me I would advise to avoid this entire chain and go to Lazee*** atleast you get taste and decent food but this place is to cry about 35$ for two shawarma s and it was all bread no fresh veggies no taste. Again AVOID this place at all cost.

Your shawarma wraps are more wrap then ingredients! I have been at this restaurant 3 times and I will not be spending my money there again! There is more bread wrap then ingredients! Minimal meat and veggies and therefore I WILL NEVER buy anything from this store again! The chicken in my wrap was hard. As I ate it it felt like I had boned chicken in my mouth which was disgusting as it was just extremely dried out chicken! Never again will I eat here!

Decent shawarma, needs hotter sauce and would do well to add some Fattoush to the wrap, but over all pretty decent for a chain. The falafels are made fresh and probably the best I have had, very crispy and delicious!

Dishonest staff. We were lied and as a result, we will never buy from this establishment again. Before ordering, we specifically asked if the chicken served was white meat or contained dark meat. We were told that we would receive white meat, and thus we proceeded to order. Only upon getting home did we realize that we were not served a single piece of white meat. Totally uncalled for. We would have happily ordered vegetarian if we were advised that the meat was not white meat as we were told. Never again.

This rating is solely based on the website. Looks organized and well designed but what a useless garbage dump. Why would you make it so you cant remove items from the checkout? Oh and why the hell cant you go back a page 90% of the time? And the 10% of the time you can it sends you right back to main screen kicking you out of the ordering menu. Rediculous! Since i have never eaten here and as i said the website is a giant mess Im now going to have to go in to order and wait i really hope the food is better than the website.

I am a professional chef who has moved here from Toronto recently and I have tried many shawarma spots and both my wife and I absolutely loved Tahinis. We found the saj bread and toppings to be very fresh, the falafels and gyro were extremely tasty. We found the portions were good as well. Friendly staff and nice establishment. I would say give them a try!!

December 22, 2023

This is one of those where I wish 0 stars was possible. I came in at 9:56 pm on national shawarma day (Oct 15) and the staff was busy making other orders so kept me waiting 5 mins or so. He served me just after 10 pm and when he came to take my order, he states the $5 shawarma deal is no longer valid. This makes no sense. It s still October 15 and the social media posts have said nothing about a 10 pm limit. I drove 15 mins to the restaurant and couldn t even get the deal due to the failure of proper advertising. Really disappointing.

Unfotunaltey if you order through Tahinis online website they overcharge you even when you physically pick it up. I payed $71.99 online when in store it was only 59.99. Just be warned.

December 22, 2023

If I could give ZERO STARS to this location then I would happily give, I spent over $50 for 2 wraps and 1 shawarma plate, chkn was amazingly stale no taste , chewing saj bread was like taking a bite from a tire thts how rubbery was the bread, I asked the lady for some ketchup and utensils and to my surprise they didnt have any stock SHOCKING! and she wasnt even apologetic, the attitude was like take it or leave it!
