$6.50 - "cheesy poutine"

Poutine was underwhelming to say the least. Not much gravy. Not much cheese. & they don't use curds which is disappointing

I was craving a donair again but this time I heard about this place in Leduc called BASHA. Seeing as I work closeby I thought i would give it a shot. When I first walked in, the line up was 5 deep ( Being in Leduc there is no mask needed , nor 6 feet separation.. felt a bit weird but also back to being human ! ) . Looking at the menu board they have a wide variety to choose from... platters, kabobs, donairs and plenty of side dishes. There are regular donairs and specialty ones.. I saw one called the Sasquatch and was really intrigued ( More on that later ). Seeing 7 staff members in the kitchen prepping, slicing and frying up food showed me how busy this place is.. and it's not even a weekday ! So I imagine they are very well known. i ordered the Big Bite donair.. and looking at the photo, it is a big donair but the guy in front of me order the Sasquatch and seeing that was like seeing an elephant up close... this sandwich was MASSIVE ! So big even wrapping it up with the toppings takes an effort. WOW .. it feeds how many? I was told that if someone can eat this in 5 minutes or less , the next one is free .. ambulance you pay for yourself ! My donair was amazing... not dry, not overly fried to death.. perfect ! And even filling . I love a good donair and I have had my fair share of eating them but this place deserves a top spot. Definite worthy of a return. Prices are very reasonable too. My sandwich was $11. The behemoth sandwich was $15.50 Located in Leduc it is a bit tricky to find .. but it is in a strip mall just north of St. Peter's Lutheran Church . They also have 3 locations in Edmonton, 2 in Leduc and one in Kelowna BC. That should tell you this place is definitely doing something right. if you are in Leduc and need a good meal and want donairs.. this is the place to go .

Basha Donair & Shawarma is located at the north east corner in a strip mall on 50 St and 51 Ave. I've been to the other Basha in Leduc on Sparrow which is in the north sector close to the airport hotels. That place is a lot smaller than this location. This location has the look of having taken 2 stores and breaking a wall down to make it one big place. There's a menu on the wall and a line for the cash and then pickup. It's sort of like Subway but in reverse. You pay first then go through the pick up line where you ask for what you'd like to be added to your order. These Donairs seem to be of the "Canadian" variety because they have that sweet sauce. I ordered what seemingly was the largest donair they had to offer deemed "The Sasquatch". Sasquatch of course is that mythical creature kind of like Bigfoot. Well this thing was packed, packed with meat and the veggies and sauce were just to compliment because really this wrap is all about the meat. This thing had so much meat but I knew what I was in for. I added onions, parsley, tomatoes, as well as garlic sauce (yum) and just a little drizzle of the sweet sauce. I don't like too much of that stuff but a squirt is ok. Since I was taking this to go it was wrapped a bit differently. They wrap it and then they wrap it again and then they put the whole thing into a plastic pocket. This basically ensures it won't leak especially for those that have extra sweet sauce because that stuff is more runny than say the garlic sauce. This thing weighed a good 2 pounds. It was heavy and it was packed. It had a circumference of maybe 4 inches at it's widest point but it was really very good and very filling. I was having trouble finishing it towards the end but I was able to finish it. I imagine there's more people out there that couldn't finish it than those that could. It's really a generous portion of food and besides just quantity it's also quite delicious as well.

Eating my way through Edmonton's Donair shops!

Pretty damn good! On my way home from the West side tonight, I was looking for somewhere in the middle to try out. A friend recomended Basha. Donair...sure! Unasumming little place off Saddleback Road. 1st thing I noticed upon entering was how clean and well kept everything was. Signage all over promoting their products were of good quality. Kitchen clean and everything very presentable. Decided on a regular cheese donair and a bottleof water. ~$11. Really good. Fresh. Juicy. Lots of meat. Sweet sauce was quite good. Only "problem" was that there could have been a little more sauce. Staff were very friendly and upbeat. Even offered up a sample Baklava while I waited. Napkin dispensers on tables (good plan in a donair shop!) and there were even comment cards on every table. Really impressed. If I was in the area, I could see this quickly becoming a go-to spot!

a meal in a styrofoam container

My hubby and I picked up some dinner this evening. The service was great. I didn't really know what to get so I just said chicken skewers with Greek salad etc. Well the lady there made it happen. I think it was the Shish Tawouk. It was so tasty and very filling. My hubby had the Basha Chef Style donair and he really enjoyed it. Also the staff are very aware of changing their gloves between handling money/cash register and food. Fresh gloves before they handled my food which is so important. We will definitely be back!!

Crushed the sasquatch...Heavy sandwich. Still no meat sweats! It was very good.

Tried the sasquatch...crushed it in just 5 min flat! Was a good size with tons of meat. Kids had the chicken shawarma...They really liked it! Nice joint. Heavy on the portions. Pink pickles were a great touch.

Every time we decide to have donairs, it's always Basha. The poutine, is the kid favourite. Big bite or Ashley is great for any meal

I love Fatburgers.... I mean the first time I ate at one of their locations I was totally in love…read morewith this franchise. Having gone to several locations in L.A and here in Edmonton, the service has always been quick and with a smile. This place not so much. I was the only one in placing an order.. simple.. a burger meal deal and a chicken sandwich. The order was placed and twice I heard the SKIPTHEDISHES computer ding .. never mind my order.. they focused on getting those out first. I was not sure if they get priority or is it the customer inside the store who gets the priority. Do they not cook according to orders as they come in? Twice I watched the Skip The Dishes orders get made and picked up... finally my order was completed.. total time 21 minutes ! ( order placed at 19:23 .. in my hands at 19:44 ). No customer should ever have to wait that long for an order.. especially when there is no one else around. The lady who took my order was extremely difficult to understand.. and seemed to get annoyed when I asked her to repeat what she said. Food though was delicious.. a bit expensive ( $23 ). The burger was really overloaded with lettuce, pickles and a single tomato.. there was a lot of pickle juice all over the burger . Would I go back? As I said I love the franchise but this location really needs a bit more upbeat customer service.. too slow as well.

I liked it. It was my first fat burger. So did my kid. But she got diarrhea about 3 hours after…read moreeating it unfortunately. I saw them scoop vanilla ice cream and put in chocolate syrup to make our chocolate shake. It was pretty darn good. But yeah, the squirts really put my kid out of commission.

The value menu is pretty decent and for just over $10, I picked up 2 Jr. Bacon cheeseburgers and 2 large bowls of chili (Pro tip: always get the hot chili oil, in fact ask for extra!) While waiting at the window I kept thinking about the Summer grilled chicken strawberry & mango salad. I asked if it was too late to add it on and they did it in a jiffy! The full order of the salad is just over $10 itself so it doubled my total to just over $22. But oh my oh my... let me tell you, it was so worth it! Seriously the best fast food salad I've ever had! Honey roasted sunflower seeds and a honey citrus vinaigrette comes on the side so you can decide how much of each you'd like to use. The salad itself had a nice variety of greens including a few spinach leaves. The fruit and feta was perfect. Really and truly the best fast food salad I've had! Normally I'd give a success order at a fast food joint 3 stars but this salad takes it to 4 solid stars. Worth every penny! I will definitely be back when I'm in the area :-)

I normally wouldn't gripe since you can't burgers or food for that matter much cheaper at any other…read morefast food place, but I think it's a tipping point now. Like I said, it's cheap, so I'm not paying for quality and therefore I won't make any comments on that. However, I just dashed the same thing I've ordered over 10x now, and this time they send me two burgers without buns. I'm already getting a less than stellar meal, and the lady tells me that they probably did it because I might not have chose to option for buns. There's no such option to decline buns on door dash. It's a required choice, and there's only one: sandwich bun. They couldn't even be arsed to admit that they messed up and just told me to take it up with DoorDash. Told me instead it was because I selected the extra lettuce option.

They also have a decent sized play area for the kids so that's where they and all the moms were hanging out.
