Burger so thin see through in parts steak pita half the size had to make my family a sandwich after we ate I never eat the fries at this location either because then taste dirty and gritty ? Old oil or blanching issue either way I usually love the burgers but it was basically a large meatball smached and burnt on the edges so disappointing paper thin my family laughed at me when I showed them it how ridiculously thin it was huge waste of money

Update after the gaslighting reply--I just left this review but the incident was during store hours. I have my bank records to show I ate here. Employees (in uniform) smoking directly in front of store front and door to the restaurant. Pretty disgusting. Love walking through cigarette smoke and then eating it.

Very nice staff and very good service…we ordered buffalo cauliflower pita was so delicious 😋 which I can eat again and again and mozza stick is also tasty with side of chipotle sauce. I will again visit this place soon..👌🏻👍🏻

December 13, 2021

So ordered loaded perogies and this is what I got… terrible. No sour cream, we ordered 3 other orders of mozzarella sticks and got 1 container of marinara sauce, don’t waste your time they just rip you off, we had an 80$ order and half it was messed up and in enjoyable, not like the resturant used to be when I live in Welland. Won’t be coming back next time I visit.

Ordered through skip tonight and it was the worse food Ive ever eaten poutine was just nasty pita had no taste to it just outright disgusting food tonight wont order again

March 23, 2024

Disappointed. Just ordered from door dash , a taco supreme poutine, and all I got was fries with gravy and ground beef.... no toppings. I got a partial refund but thats not the point. Im so upset. Im pregnant and wanted this supreme routine. First and last time ordering from here

★★★★★

We love you need a pita but this location is our favorite. The food is always fresh and the quality and care the employees put into making each meal shows. The bonus of their food cards makes it worth returning. This is our go to dinner on soccer nights when were short on time.

February 23, 2024

In my recent restaurant visit, regrettably, I faced an unpleasant situation.an Indian staff behaved very rudely This individuals consistently rude behavior significantly marred what could have My disappointment with the overall service was undeniably heightened due to this unfortunate encounter.

After spending over $24 on a double pork potine and a reg poutine Im smh. While the fries and toppings were tasty my $15.49 poutine had next to no cheese. No exaggeration, after stirring it around I found 4 curds. Definitely not worth the money! More cheese on Harveys poutine and much easier on the wallet!

mmm onion ring

December 23, 2023

Ordered a falafel wrap, I don t know what it was, but it wasn t falafel. Good god I was over the toilet for the next 3 hours. Never again.

December 23, 2023

Rice under cooked! Paper found in it! Number blocked. No refund. Have dined in berfore, it dosent get cleaned, a health inspector needs to be in this store!

December 23, 2023

The quality of their wraps are sub par. They should be ashamed of what they serve. They dont give what you request in your order. Never again!

They make pretty good food, its gotten pricier over the years but they still have okay deals

December 23, 2023

Ordered 2 rice boxes today, both the exact same size. When I opened them the one was filled to the top and the other had barely anything in it. The second didn t even have a quarter of what the first one had. Almost seemed like a joke. Rice was cold as well. Employees clearly do not care. Was a regular here but I will never be going back.

December 23, 2023

Worst fries saw guy put left over fries in New order how does a burger cook in under 4 mins worst food ever waste 17.10

Would be 5 stars if it wasn t for slow service! Do not come here if in a rush. Great food though!

December 23, 2022

The uneedapita franchise is good but this one sets the bar low. They dont mix any of the ingredients in your pita so each bite is a bite of one ingredient

Great food except they started half cooking the fries then re cooking to order wich has made the greasy and mushy but the rest of the food is fantastic

★★★
December 23, 2022

Always get the burger with cheese and fries. burger is always good but fries need to be cooked a bit longer as some still feel like a potato

December 23, 2022

Meh Small poutine soggy in gravy. Very small portioned out cheese curds. Brown powdered salty gravy but the worst was cooked in BLACK OIL. OMG This place used to be ok but its real bad now. Not going back!!

My salad box was half full and tasted terrible. No dipping sauce came with mac&cheese wedges & also also had 2 missing orders of the wedges.

Local Guide
December 23, 2022

Never again. Meat texture was like dog food, dry and flavorless. Pita fell apart, had to eat most of it with a fork and knife. Chicken fingers were nothing special, oil on fries and fingers left awful greasy bitter film in the mouth. Fries had zero salt. Spend $40 somewhere else.

December 23, 2022

The chicken was full of gristle and tasted off I had to throw it out

This place needs attention. You know who I am. I seen that black oil and asked how long its been since it was changed. Answer: a whole week... yea tastes like it.. but thanks for the honesty (points for that). Next time dont give me all the salt you got in stock either. This place is good if you want the same quality of food you make yourself at 2am while half in the bag.

★★★★★
December 23, 2021

Best place for those who love burgers, pita and poutine. Ingredients are always fresh. Fresh cooked meat. No frozen. Staff is very polite and welcoming. Always made my order right and on time. Must visit to make your day wonderful

December 23, 2021

I don t understand the inconsistency of this place. I get the same thing every time. Chicken souvlaki rice bowl. Every time it s been made up differently. This last time the lady argued it was a salad ??????? So it had no rice. Even after I asked for rice. I m confused. And will go elsewhere. Response to owner: I realize there are 3 different bases .. and the RICE BOX was asked for .. no need for further contact, I am not arguing about my order .. it could have been a simple mistake or they didnt hear, but even after the fact she was not changing it to a rice box and argued it was a salad.

★★★★
December 23, 2021

Went there last week, service was fast and friendly, pita was huge and delicious!!!

December 23, 2021

I wish I could share the pics and the video I just took of my order. For the second time now my fries are completely soaked in grease to the point they are just mush. On top of that a long black hair was stuck to the grease on the inside of the container. Both our burgers were just chunks of meat not a patty and were swimming in a overwhelming amount of mayo and chipotle sauce. To say Im disappointed is an understatement as I live across the street and used to enjoy the food. I wouldnt serve this to my dog let alone my family. What a waste of money and now I have to make supper anyways.

★★★
December 23, 2021

Hit or miss most of the time. Sometimes it s amazing, then other times the order is completely wrong and they take so long it s not even worth trying to have it remade.

Fantastic! The service was amazing and the food was delicious. Big portions, fresh ingredients and made to order. Ill definitely be back

December 23, 2021

If I had known that your buisness was able to encapsulate despaire in a box, I would have braced myself properly before ordering. The porogies I ordered were still slightly frozen inside, crammed into a small box and left for dead with a single strip of bacon on top. The Poutine my daughter wanted had 3 cheese curds and the most generic gravy ive ever had the chance to try. The cheese cake may as well had been a great value brand toaster struddle. We were expecting some sort of treat, but in true Welland fashion we just feel robbed and ill.

★★★★★
December 23, 2021

Just got a loaded poutine with bacon and it is by far one of the best poutines I have ever had. An ample amount of authentic cheese curds, delicious gravy, chip truck style fries and a whole slew of toppings choices, what else could you want! This was my first time trying something from here and I cannot wait to return in the near future! And to top things off, the service was prompt and very pleasant, thank you for a delicious lunch!

Ordered Steak Saturday Pita it was great just a bit too much on the sauce as it got too wet in my bread. The fries were also delicious however lessen the salt on it will make it better and lessen the quantity as it was way too much for one single person. The fried cheesecake was meh not the worst or the greatest it was whatever.

Stopped in for a burger. First thing I noticed is that this place looks and feels filthy. I still went ahead with a food order. Grabbed a double burger with bacon and cheese and while it was ok, it wasnt like I remember pre-pandemic. Is this place under new ownership?

★★
December 23, 2021

Used to love this place. The salad needed more dressing and well lettuce. Had to ask for more and got a pinch. Disappointed

Just amazing! Gluten free & dairy free choices are slim pickins for myself and this place does it so well. The vegan poutine is amazing. My family loves this place too as they also have some of the best burgers in the region. For fast food, these burgers are probably the best. The pitas can be made into salads, and the choice of toppings are great. Can order through Skip the Dishes but Uber Eats has a better selection of choices for toppings for each selection.

★★★★

Great burgers

December 23, 2020

Slow service made wifes pita than i had to wait 10 minutes before they started my poutine. Then they didnt listen to my order and i had to wait again for them to make my kids food. 25 minutes in total for one pita and 3 poutines and not a hair net or mask in sight

Local Guide
December 23, 2020

Waited over 30 mins when only one other customer was there. My pita was more of a soup then a sandwich. By the time I got home the pits bread was mush from all the hot sauce. And there was almost no chicken. The side poutine was also the same. Way to much gravy. And my girlfriends chicken way dry and over cooked. I uses to come multiple times a week before covid but being the second time during covid, not to mention the lack of masks, gloves and sanitization (cutting board was a disaster) I dont think Ill be back. The food here uses to be amazing and one of my favorite takeout restaurant. But sadly the quality control isnt there anymore. I worked in the food industry for years. And things happen but this is inexcusable...

Delivery person was awesome... 12.99 burger was terrible... cold and didn t seem like a double burger with sautéed onions and mushrooms as advertised... 9 philly pita was cold and not 9 it was the same size as the others... chicken Caesar pita had 3 small pieces of chicken in it and all the food seems like it has been sitting... Terrible

★★★★★
December 23, 2020

I was more impressed today and my pita was made exactly as it was suppose to. I figured out last time they made it they used pulled prk which i was very unimpressed with. Hopefully they keep this standard that was presented today as it was years ago when the others owned it.

December 23, 2020

Usually decent service but they just served me a raw Beyond Burger and a regular poutine instead of a vegan poutine which is obviously unacceptable. While I was ordering the employees made another order wrong aswell. Staff was nice but clearly need to work on the accuracy of orders.

Came here last night to order takeout for our family, and the two guys working (Connor and Karan[so sorry if i butchered the spelling]) were absolutely fantastic! They were fast and efficient, pleasant to talk to, seemed knowledgeable, and handled being quite busy very well. Food was made perfectly, even the ridiculously specific pita my husband sent us for. Keep being amazing boys!!
