I love how they have different cabbage options instead of lettuce. The sauces are really good and the chicken is very delicious! Their service is super fast too. Highly recommend!

Last week, I visited Shawarma Bros Lawrence location and ordered two of their special chicken shawarmas. They were absolutely delicious – the flavors were rich, and the ingredients tasted fresh. It was easily one of the best shawarma experiences I’ve had! A special mention goes to Miss Manija from team member. She went above and beyond to make my visit enjoyable, showing exceptional courtesy and attention to detail. Her respectful and friendly attitude truly made me feel welcome. Kudos to Shawarma Bros for both the amazing food and excellent service. I’ll definitely be returning

I came on Saturday night, Great Mediterranean food! Yes, it's worth the hype. Had some good quality shawarma after a long time. Quantity is good. Service was also good, the staff are professional and friendly. Price is reasonable. Overall, Shawarma Bros is a must try!! Will definitely visit again.

★★★

Their service was very good and friendly. However, their shawarma doesn't quite match the quality of others in the area. While the ingredients are good, the way they wrap and grill it isn't to my liking. Overall, it's a good place.

I got chicken shawarma wrap form the store. It was super tasty and flavourful which cost $9..03 only. The little thing that they should consider is the interior of the restaurant they could have been done it better. Any way perfect shawarma

★★★★

Delicious shawarma and good customer service, with very reasonable prices as well. There are a wide variety of options available, and the staff are super friendly and quick at preparing your order for takeout. Prices are good for the portion sizes and you can customize your toppings as well. This is a larger restaurant primarily meant for dining-in, but there is takeout service available too. Definitely worth visiting for some tasty Halal shawarma in Scarborough!

I heard a lot of good things from this shawarma restaurant and needless to say, it met my expectations. I came here in the late evening when most places are closed. The food was still fresh and the temperature of the food was hot. They provided a lot of different sauces as well. I ordered a Saj mixed wrap which is quite big and satisfying. You do get decent value for $9.99. I would recommend them and return in the future.

Being on keto, I was only able to get the salad so I got a small because typically shawarma places load the meat but I didn't find that at this place. The meat portion was very small and was measured. I saw a lot of reviews about the meat being dry but with all the sauces, I didn't taste that. The hot sauce is actually spicy, which was great. I left feeling pretty satisfied, not still hungry but not overly full. My only small critique is, it would have been nice to cut up the cumbers more, add more lettuce and spead out the toppings when making the salad. Otherwise, I would go back but I also want to try one of the very many other shawarma places on the strip!

Ordered a chicken shawarma wrap, upon opening I discovered the wrap wasnt rolled tight enough or folded properly and was already falling apart before I picked it up. Making it very difficult and very messy to eat. Eglinton Ave E location is better.

Just ordered a chicken shawarma platter for take out. The shawarma chicken is not fresh, no taste and definitely not fresh. Either from a day before. I called to complain and the lady responded saying we are just sorry and hung up the call. I will not recommend this place and if you go make sure to check if their meat is fresh or from a day before.

First time customer and will be a returning one, again and again. The shawarma wrap i picked up was a mix of beef and chicken. My toppings alone really spiced up my wrap, giving it quite a kick and flavor boost. Garlic, tahini, and hot sauce will really wake your senses up Vegetarian options: Carrots and cabbage, salad, tomatoes, garlic sauce, hummus sauce, tahini, and other options available. Parking: Big parking area shared with another restaurant and next to a Tim Hortons.

I live in the area and have passed this location many times, and decided to give it a try today. I had the chicken shawarma and holy, it was honestly the best one I have had in a long time. The garlic sauce has a ton of flavour and there is a very good amount of chicken that is put in the pita. All of the veggies were fresh and flavourful, and the woman who was working was extremely friendly. If you haven t tried this place before, give it a try! The price was very good as well which made it perfect for my lunch since I haven t gone shopping yet for groceries this week.

Not a fancy spot, but the shawarma tastes right. Nice spice level. Good pickle and onion combo. And I cant stress enough what a difference it makes to have PROPER garlic sauce. Could have used a bit more of it in the wrap (which was grilled), but tasted good. 2 shawarma deal is a reasonable price too, at $17.

Where do I even begin? I had the opportunity to grab a mix chicken/beef shawarma from this place on Tuesday. Got all toppings but light lettuce only. During the final sauce phase, I told the gentleman to put a lotta hot sauce, and then decent amount of garlic and then tahini. He put a generous amount of hot sauce but barely any garlic and tahini. First issue-even with the amt of sauces he had put, there was no hotness or spiciness to the final product. Nothing! At all. Guess he put some sorta orange/red coloured liquid cus I sure didnt taste any spice. Secondly, the meat was dry. Even with the all the sauce, the meat was unflavoured and bland. The lettuce tasted old and water logged. The pickled turnip wasnt pickled at all. Do yourself a favor - if youre ever hungry and in the area, there are hundreds of other Shawarma places you can patronize on Lawrence Ave between Pharmacy and Birchmount. Go to one of them instead.

It was just fine. The variety in toppings was a little bit slim, and the place seemed a little disheveled, but the service was accommodating and the food was satisfactory. Some of the toppings were a little cold or too big resulting in a bit of a mess, but the meats were good and the wrap was crunchy. The fries were to die for, though, absolutely incredible fries.

The Chicken Shawarma plate is by far one of the best, if no the best, Ive had in many years. Each sauce is layered with flavour components that compliment the amazing thick pieces of chicken. There are no shreds of meat here, but healthy portions at a great price. I wish I lived closer so I can have it more often. I highly recommend a lunch or dinner from here

The restaurant is located close to the intersection at Warden and Lawrence. Ordered a take out here and the veggies and sauces were fresh and juicy. The shawarma was well done but a bit too dry. I felt the food was a bit too expensive compared to other restaurants nearby. Moreover noticed the store front was still covered with snow and if you aren t too careful you could slip. It annoyed me that the business owners did not care to clean the snow even after 2 days. Anyhow, the restaurant is worth a try if you like Shawarmas.

The shawarma were very tasty and substantially filled. You wont be hungry when done. Several sauces. Loved their hot sauce. The best in the area. We randomly chose this place. So glad we made a u-turn and went back. We will be returning....regularly. This place is worth trying. You wont be disappointed. Again, very clean. The tables are clean and not sticky like the guy across the street.

Extraordinary value! I got my wrap around 1:00 p.m. on a Monday. The veggies were crisp and fresh tasting. Tabbouli was one of the available ingredients which it a must! The wrap came in an interesting pie crescent shape and was nicely toasted. Perfect veggies to meat of 60/40. Had the works on the wrap including hot sauce. The sauces complimented the food rather than trying to mask it- just right! The store looked clean and well kept and the person behind the counter use gloves properly when making the sandwich, then taking them off to complete the sale at the register. Chicken came out of a hot tray and was slightly dry, although the other ingredients picked up where the chicken left off and made for a very satisfying and delicious lunch at a crazy value! Great experience.

Maybe i was there not in the right time. I was there in the restaurant around 8:30pm. No other customers. The chicken and beef left were only a small piece. Size of the shawarma was ok, and the meat was not so tasty. I should go in another rush hour time, when the foods can be prepared freshly.
