I absolutely love Amazing Shawarma! Their chicken wraps are always packed full and the food is, well, amazing. I ordered on DoorDash today, and unfortunately, the order got canceled. But that was a DoorDash issue, not the restaurant’s fault at all. I’ve had their food before and can confidently say it’s always fresh, delicious, and worth it. I definitely recommend checking them out if you’re craving a solid shawarma! The fries are delicious also! 🤤😋

I had high hopes for Amazing Shawarma, but unfortunately, my visit was far from amazing. The employee confidently assured me that I wouldn’t regret dining there, so I decided to try the chicken wrap. Sadly, it was one of the worst meals I’ve had. The chicken tasted off, as though it had been sitting in a refrigerator for a week. To make matters worse, the meat on display looked unappealing and far from fresh. It was incredibly disappointing to see such low standards for food quality. I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone. If you value fresh, flavorful food, this is not the place to go.

10/10 Our local shawarma joint and it’s Amazing (haha get it?) Hefty portions. Great prices. Fantastic flavour. We get food from here 2-3 times a month. Always consistent.

This place runs like a mom-and-pop shop and looks like one too. Super yummy food and the wait time isn't too long. The staff is friendly and have a no-nonsense policy, which is great when you've got a bunch of high schoolers who come in being rowdy. My family comes often and we really enjoy the food.

This is my first delivery order from this restaurant. I ordered Chicken Shawarma plate and it's not too bad I would give it 5/10. The quantity is very good but my concern is how the chicken Shawerma smells, for me it hasn't a good smell at all, Sorry but it smells like egg. The salad, sauces and rice were good. I would order again if they take care about chicken's quality.

This is my favourite Shawarma spot in Scarborough (and I've tried a lot). My metric for the food quality is how sluggish I feel after eating it, and I always seem to actually feel better after eating here. They provide good portions and are very friendly here. Highly recommend.

Simple shawarma, nothing special. I ordered a shawarma wrap and felt the meat portions were small. The good thing about this place was the price. We got 2 wraps for $15 total Wouldn't recommend or come back as there are a lot more other options around the area.

Ive been eating at this location daily for almost half a year. While I cant speak others, their service and food have been top notch and very consistent. I would say, Ilias (the general manager) and Nasir (tall with glasses) are the best employees there as they have always made my plate the same portions regardless of the circumstances. If youre lucky enough to see them working, Id recommend you ask for them specifically. They make sure to load my plate and have always given me extra portion sizes regardless of how busy it was. Thank you for the continued blessings!

August 21, 2024

The shawarma was average, but the problem was the service. They put very little sauce on my chicken shawarma plate. While I was in line, a girl asked for more sauce, and the server gave it to her without saying anything. However, when I asked for more sauce, he told me I needed to pay for an extra spoon of sauce. I should mention that the girl was Caucasian, so it seems she got the extra sauce for free because of her race? How does that make sense? A restaurant run by immigrants discriminating against their own people?! Is that fair? I recommend that the restaurant management ensure consistent service for all customers, regardless of their race, gender, etc. It would be great if they could put more sauce on the dishes initially and not charge extra for a reasonable amount of additional sauce. This small change could significantly improve customer satisfaction and fairness.

This place has become increasingly dissatisfying in both their service and their food. Have left this place extremely dissatisfied the last couple of time, the most recent one had to cancel my order as after waiting for 15 min they had not even started on it...Do Not Recommend!!!!

August 21, 2024

I ordered one chicken shawarma and i only got veggies in it, no chicken at all and no one was picking up the call.

August 21, 2024

This place has really gone downhill since the last time I visited. I ordered two chicken shawarma wraps and they were barely filled with chicken or any toppings. Very disappointing.

★★★
August 21, 2024

This used to be a great joint a few years back but recently the quality has dropped. Shawarmas are loaded so you get the best bang for your buck but they put way too much sauce, and the vegetables have been left out for a long time late night, really stale and not in good condition. One time they had old tomatoes really mangled up looking and threw a fresh batch right on top. Not the best for hygienic food handling.

Visited many times because of the quality and taste, but on my visit last night, I ordered the chicken shawarma, and the taste was average. They are charging 25 cents for each extra spoon of dressing sauce, and the spoon using is very small as compared to regular. The pita quality is the worst.

Iv been to 6 countries over the world. This shawarma place is probably the worst one. This is from my heart. Waited in line for shawarma chicken. The chicken was filled it was not done. It can feed like 30 people. Nope 1 guy comes orders and the worker says the guy infront of you is taking all the chicken. So get beef. I m like I just need 1 sandwich. He s like nope he s fasting. I m like brother I m fasting too. Obviously he s discriminating because the guy that wa ordering was a sheikh lookin and I was a regular guy. So he thought I wasn t fasting. No one stood up for me. Never gave me the sandwich because he has his favorites. 0

I ve come here for over a decade and all of sudden the they won t make my shawarma like they had for me previously. They also won t respond to me when I text the number they posted on the door for any concerns. Last time I tried to get a shwarma even that location that s out of my way refused to make it crispy even though there was nobody else in the place and they are there getting paid anyway. I m 60?? Do I not matter anymore even though I ve supported the place for a decade? Don t get old. :( I ve had time to chat with the owner. It didn t go well. Apparently 60 yr old French men don t deserve to be treated like they matter. All I ask is that they make my shawarma well done lone the last decade. They won t and Nasir won t ask his employees to treat me like I matter. I guess I don t matter. I m old and irrelevant. So I did what you asked and contacted you. I said that I don t want free food and only want you to ask your employees to take the time to make the shwarma like they used to for me for over a decade. You won t do that for me (costs you nothing to do this if you wanted) even though you pretend to be interested in helping me here. Am I too old to matter?? Too French Canadian? I m willing to post our conversation here if you d like. I m too classy to do that despite your last interaction. with me. I will if you want. Maybe I m in the wrong.

The name says it all! It really is amazing. We discovered this gem and frequent it for work lunches. The pricing is really good. The food is fantastic. The shawarma is always so fresh. Good toppings, and the sauces they use are delicious. I havent tried, but I heard the burgers are great also. The gentlemen working the counters are always friendly and they work very quickly. Definitely one of my favourite places for shawarma.

Ive been coming to this location for a long time, maybe 5+ years. Never been disappointed with the food or service, you just gotta be patient and ask if you need something. Ive been having the chicken shawarma plate with rice and salad and they fill them up properly. There are times where they fill a bit less but if you ask they dont say no and fill it up some more. Ask and you will receive but be kind as they are human too. The chicken shawarma Wrap is also really good as well, same thing they fill them up properly. Id say get all the sauces they are all good, I get them to put all the sauces but extra. The prices are fair especially for the portions you get. Like I said if you want something like a bit extra meat or salad, whatever it is just ask they wont say no but ask in a nice way of course.

Good Shawarma one of the many in scarboro good price and pretty fresh

December 21, 2023

Rude and terrible service. Food servers should learn how to have good manners - itll make the world a better place by putting it into actual practice. My kid has food allergy to the sauce and we asked them to separate sauce into a different container in the same amount - not more, not less. This way other people in my family can still enjoy the sauce. They are making the assumption that we are receiving more by using a container and called us fraudsters, and said they should charge us $5 for the sauce. First of all, if you are a skilled worker, you would know how to scoop a small amount or the same like how you would normally do when pouring into the takeout box. You do this at least a hundred times a day. You are in control of your own hand as to how much to give us. Learn to use your hand that is connected to your brain to do that. Calling names and accusing someone of something is not nice - we are all adults here. And be considerate to the health needs of others. This place is nothing of Amazing - just shawarma and bad service.

December 21, 2023

Dont trust the high reviews. Unsanitary. Dont wear mask properly. Touches money and food without washing hands. Disrespectful staff. Smaller portions and higher prices. Never returning. Dont recommend.

I went to Amazing Shawarma last weekend. It is very busy place, lined up for few minutes to get turn to order. I ordered 3 chicken shawarmas wrap and waited another 15 mins to get ready. We took out and ate in home. It worths what you pay . Just advise to keep the store cleaner.

Shawarma was mediocre at best but the service was not great at all. If you pay cash you re expected to receive change, no matter if it your change is 5 dollars or 5 cents. nobody actually cares about 5 cents, I would ve left it as tip anyways, but the fact that you didn t give it back tells me that you re dishonest.

I dont know what these guys are smoking. Ive been here several times usually no problems but the last couple times its like they are asleep. they ask me several times if I want beef or chicken. I always get a plate this guy fills it up with fries and goes to skip the salad. When I ask for it he is rude and barley gives me any. I ask for light sauce and he smoothers it. I had half a mind to walk out and go somewhere else but I instead have decided to never go back.

The meat being used is not high quality. The chicken and beef. Not what it used to be. No longer returning. The fries is good though. Not the chicken and beef. Low quality. The grille is not warm enough to keep the meat warm. They are going the cheap route. Not giving you my hard earned dollars ever again. Thank God I didn t puke what I ate from here. Hard to keeping it down in my stomach. Please improve. Replying to owner: 1) I don t let a bad meal ruin my day. 2) I don t go to the gas station often. I don t need to drive a car to get around. 3) I ve been eating at your place since you opened up so I m familiar with your meat and your produce. I know where you get your produce from. I have friends in the shawarma business. 4) I SPENT REAL MONEY AT YOUR RESTAURANT SO ITS NOT A FAKE REVIEW. it s smart of you as a owner to claim it s a fake review or fraudulent. Look at my history of reviews. It s all authentic and valid. I hope you don t get angry when you eat a bad meal and I hope you don t take it out on anyone. I take it out in the washroom. To new and existing customers. You deserve better. Real food not fake food. I will acquire receipts from restaurants I visit moving forward so I can prove I purchased a meal from the establishment. I wouldn t make this up. I have better things I can be doing than write fake reviews. And last few words for the owner: It s time for you to receive fake money.

These guys are awesome here. The service is wonderful, the quality of food is delicious, the restaurant is fairly clean. I say that because unfortunately high school students frequent through here and as expected they are children, so it can get loud-ish at times when they are present! The only thing I DO NOT agree with is that these poor guys arent allowed to accept gratuities as per their leader. Thats ridiculous in my opinion because its the food industry, regardless on the Halal part. They are not begging for anything but im also not ok leaving my extra money that I wanna leave for them in that cash till! Soooooo I strongly recommend this place again because the quality and service is awesome! Parking: Depends on which time of the day you go. There is an international college next door so sometimes it may be tricky getting a spot!

Food is okay. The prices have increased but the portions have decreased. The quality is a hit or miss depending on who handled your order at any time of the week. As a side observation, some of the guys working behind the counter wear masks below their nose. Might as well cut a hole in your mask if youre not going to wear it properly. Update: Dropped by yesterday and was shocked to find that they jacked up the prices. Meanwhile, the quantity and quality of the food have gone downhill. Did the business change management/owner?

Use to love this place but in the past year, they raised prices and took two ingredients off their menu. That would be the peppers and that cabbage coleslaw type thing they had. I wont return till they bring back ingredients they charge me money for. Shawarmas there dont taste the way they used to which is why I stopped coming here.

December 21, 2022

There is no chicken just a box full of rice, i was there for delivery and i was so hungry i checkout this store but so disappointed, no taste please go for osmow,s

December 21, 2022

I would like to give this place not even1 star. Food was very bad and they just want to make money only. They don t care about customer values. Worst customer service. Last night I ordered with fries and chicken the box filled with 99% of fries, just little bit of chicken on top of it they charge almost 13$ so expensive and food was very bad. I don t recommend this place.

Been going here for a couple months now and lalalaloved it even recommended it to a few of my friends.. but i think something must have changed they use to give such big portions but now it s not the same anymore :( also, really loved the beets but have ordered a few times now and there were no beets i thought there was some sort of shortage issue but now cant be sure hope they bring back their good quality ingredients and most especially the BEETS.

Came to get 6 Shawarmas and placed my order first. Someone else came in after me and place 3 Shawarmas and the workers decided to complete their order first. The Shawarmas are good here but workers and their system is very very bad. This happened on July 3rd at 1:40PM. I hope management takes some action and retrain their workers on order processing.

I would love to share this amazingly awesome shawarma joint in Scarborough. Both my fiancee and I (he had a falafel wrap and Mines was chicken with an extra scoop of chicken) and it was super delicious! Also amazing service and our order was well taken care of with Mahumood (Saturday July 30, 2022). Planning another shawarma run soon! Vegetarian options: The falafel was very well portion! Very pleased! Parking: Lots of parking!

Their sauces are also very good! This place is definitely a hidden gem in Scarborough. Workers are always very kind and make sure to properly make your meal. Would recommend to anyone that is looking for a delicious shawarma!

Have been to this restaurant many times in the past three years and every visit has met my expectations. Food prices are always affordable and never too over the top for each item on the menu plus I often get discounts on my orders. They have never increased their prices and neither have they ever decreased their quality of food. Each and every item on the menu always tastes delicious and is exactly what you expect from Middle Eastern food culture. One of the reasons their food always tastes great (which Ive personally noticed myself) is that their toppings are always fresh and they have a really good variety of toppings well, which you cannot find in a lot of other Shawarma restaurants in Scarborough. Not only the food is great, but the dining and packaging is also clean and proper. The employees are completely respectful and kind towards customers. They are also extremely understanding of the customers demands or conditions (such as changing gloves immediately for vegetarians). Overall, this is pretty much the best Shawarma restaurant in Scarborough and if youre craving Shawarma Id highly recommend going here rather than other places!

I think I m being generous at 2 stars. My son suggested this place which while he was attending school nearby often used his lunch money to get a good meal here, and I truly believe that it was good 2 years ago when he attended. We ordered the 2 shawarma special and a third shawarma sandwich for his brother. The meat is cooking on a spit like you d expect in any typical shawarma joint. Toppings is where I saw the first red flag. They had generous amounts of onion, turnip, lettuce and I guess coleslaw. There was white sauce which I ll assume tahini and hummus and some other garlic concoction. We ordered rice and fries as well. Let me start by saying I ve never seen this much meat put on a single shawarma sandwich, ever, without asking and paying for extra. Had I done that it would have been far too much for even two people, as it was I could not finish more than half. The same applies for the veggie toppings, this was one solid wrap/sandwich and significantly more than enough for one person. My issue was when ringing up the meal, we were charged for plates that also come with a drink, which we did not want or request. The falafel was cooked well and was crispy but had way too much curry for my taste, well that s what it tasted like. Will I go back? Well as Soon as we got outside my son said before I could comment, never again. Made me smile because we were on the same page. If you are looking for quantity you likely won t find a better place but as for quality, I ve always had a better Shawarma wrap any place else.

Weve ordered from this restaurant twice before, third times a charm right? We were not so lucky. Our uber eats order was 2 plates and a shawrama wrap. After it arrived lukewarm, we cautiously proceeded to eat and chalked it up to the delivery travel time. The food was not fresh, certainly not as we experienced it in our previous orders. The meat seemed like it was rotating on the shawarma contraption for one too many days. No one finished their meal, it was too risky a task even though we were all hungry from the days adventures. Not so bad right? Except everyone got sick and I interrogated the food consumed throughout the day by each member, it was definitely the not so amazing shawarma. Note: it was difficult to post a 1 star review given the current climate for small businesses, but I had to share my poor experience. I will continue to support small businesses, just not this one.

We previously ordered from the location on Eglinton and we were quite pleased so, we decided to give this one a try as well. We ordered two Shawarma salads and they both were fresh, crispy, flavorful and filling. We used Uber Eats and, this location had more choices for the toppings like Stuffed Grape Leaves, Mixed Beans, etc. so that was much better compared to the other one.

Ive ordered in the past pre-pandemic and the kebobs were a lot larger. Ive noticed since this pandemic has started that the sizes of the kebobs are much smaller. The only consolation is that the price hasnt changed. If they start to charge more for less quantity then I will have to take my business elsewhere. On a side note, you have three guys working the front counter wearing masks. However, two of them have the masks just up to their noses. Whats the point of wearing a mask? Might as well cut a large hole in the mask and wear it like that. I might stop going to the Midland location because of this.
