This place has got me saying OPA!!! From each time I clumsily dropped my utensils, to when our…read moreserver brings over a enormous plate of QUALITY & DELICIOUS Greek food. With its super reasonable price, even for seafood & lamb, I'm so glad my family & I had dinner here! SAGANAKI - so fun to watch the waitress light a piece of cheese on fire. The citrus topped on the charred cheese also gave it a tangy flavour to have with the soft pita bread. MEDITERRANEO PLATTER - easily feeds 3 people. For starters, it came with: -Moussaka (absolute FAVOURITE dish I had, it's like a Greek Shepard's pie with creamed potatoes, saucey ground meet, & eggplants & zucchini layered within) -Dolmadakia -Side Vegetables The main dish had: -Lamb Chops -Chicken Souvlaki -Pork Souvlaki -Potato & Rice (tasted buttery & seasoned) All the meats were juicy, not dry, and deliciously seasoned with parsley flakes, dill & citrus flavours. I especially liked the lamb and chicken. The tzatziki sauce was super thick and went well with the souvlaki. LAMB STEW- so warm & comforting. The tomato, celery, bell pepper & onion flavours all combined incredibly with the tender lamb chunks. PORK TENDERLOIN - lean meat but not dry, again a comforting and flavourful dish. //DESSERTS// Do yourself a favour and don't forget to save room for it. I learned that Greek BAKLAVA uses walnuts & honey instead, so it's not overly sweet or soaked in sugar like the more familiar Turkish version. We also shared the STRAWBERRY YOGURT CHEESECAKE, which was extremely moist & refreshing, yet rich. //SERVICE & ATMOSPHERE// Service was so nice and welcoming. I'm so glad we stopped by for casual dinner, the space also gave off a very relaxed European feel. There's tons of booth seating and long tables at the corners of the restaurant (especially good for private parties or large dining groups). Overall, an eye-OPAning experience! The delicious Greek food, well-cooked proteins, hearty portions, AND reasonable prices will keep me coming back for more. Next time, I have my heart set on their calamari & seafood (which only ranges from 20-$25)! Anddd ordering a heap of the Moussaka haha, it's seriously the best.

The waiter who took our order was much better but still was missing good customer service skills. Asked for water for the table and wasn't delivered until our 4th time asking. We ordered the Med Platter which tasted great. Food overall was good for the price. Souvlaki and lamb chop were full of flavour and pretty juicy. Gyro was slighlty salty for my taste. This was my first time having moussaka and it had. I felt the filling lacked spice but the bechamel was a nice, creamy texture.

I had the chicken with three sides and everything was delicious. The eggplant dip was the right kind of smoky, the chicken was crispy but soft, the rice was perfectly cooked, and the garlic sauce was out of this world. Hopefully I can try a different protein next time!

The place has a…read morelively Mediterranean-style ambiance that's casual but inviting, perfect for a quick meal or a relaxed bite with friends. I went for their Shawarma Supreme with rice. It came with grilled chicken, veggies, hummus, tahini, BBQ sauce, and pomegranate molasses. The flavors worked really well together, the chicken was moist and juicy, the sauces added layers of richness, and the veggies kept it fresh. Portion sizes are big enough to leave you full, with the small priced at $9.49 and the large at $15.29, which makes it a good deal. The staff was efficient and friendly, and my order was ready without much wait. It's always nice when service matches the food, and here both delivered. For anyone who enjoys hearty Shawarma plates with bold flavors, this is worth the visit. I'll be back to explore more of their menu.

However, there was much left to be desired and I'm saying this even though I was hungry. It is a watered down inauthentic wrap if I ever ate one. Watered down, meaning it literally tastes like water. If you like lettuce, this is the place to go. You can also taste the cucumber water. The chicken was dry, not plentiful and I did not see the chicken cooking outside, so not sure how they make it. There's no hummus or garlic flavour. If you like salad inside a wrap, with water taste, this is it. It wasn't as savoury as I would have wanted it to be. Plenty of parking and has a washroom, which is good. Food though has much left to be desired

If you held a frozen pillsbury cookie tube, that's how small it is. We ordered a Chicken $5 and a Falafel $5 wrap. My order was everything with garlic sauce and hot sauce. The taste was okay, very happy they has no MSG. But the lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion, cabbage ingredients very very little in the chicken wrap and I think my Falafel wrap was made wrong - swapped with the other box order. This new store opened in November and integrates the ability to online order but there is no pay function. So on arrival the order was not made until I showed up (which is a 6min drive from my workplace so it would have been nice to have it ready to pick up). The online function is supposed to help make less mistakes with order by providing the location order in advance but I feel like my order would have been better received verbally. :/ It was a two man operation with one guy making and one guy taking payments. The guy taking the payments touched his mask a lot. Washrooms were closed for guest, so for anyone with a weak bladder this location may not be accessible. It saddens me when I arrive to a take out location without washrooms available for handwashing, especially when you're eating finger foods. This location did not have hand sanitizer available for patrons. It's a rough first experience, but my bookkeeper said she liked it. So gotta give this place another try in the future.

The dips were all delicious and rich, and the pita was fresh and warm. The garlic aioli was also strong and creamy. The atmosphere was very family friendly with an almost cafeteria-like feel.

All in all, food was authentic, delicious, and reasonably priced. Definitely recommend.

I remember trying it (takeout) years ago but this is the first time I came in for dine-in. I love the cozy interiors and aesthetics. Decor is nice especially the booth seatings. Menu has a wide variety of options to choose from, but we opted for the family platter since it seemed like the best option for sharing. Portion was quite generous and a decent amount to share. We got the BBQ chicken ($74.99) which came with either rice or fries (or you could do half/half), salad of your choice (we opted for fattoush), 2 dips of your choice (we chose baba ghanoush & muhammara), 4 fresh pitas & a whole chicken. Restaurant has a lot of parking and seating. Staff were nice but it was a bit of a slow service (had to constantly ask for things, such as cutlery, plates, etc). The washroom had the A/C on blast and it was freezing cold but at least it was clean. Now for the food - everything we had was pretty good. I usually don't like garlic sauce but the one that came with the food was pretty creamy and delicious. As for the baba ghanoush, it didn't taste like it but it still had a nice flavour. The Muhammara was amazing, not overly spicy. As for the fattoush, I found it just OK. I've had better ones elsewhere and I find that it lacked the crispy pita bites, as there was only a few. However, it's worth noting that the chicken took around 30-40 minutes to be ready, which I didn't mind because it came well seasoned and well done. It was not too dry, but not juicy either but seasoned well. The rice was also ok and I like that the food wasn't too greasy, but the plate came with way too many onions... I'd recommend this spot and would come back if I'm ever in the area. Would love to try other dishes on the menu.

After walking inside you get the same cozy feeling and the smells just warm your soul up. They put so much dedication from the way they speak with you to the quality of the food, I was really satisfied. I didn't know this but you actually get $5 off your first order of $25 or more if you order online through their website shawermaplus.com - love supporting local! Since I was really craving mediterranean I decided to go all out and order. First, there was so much variety on the menu that there wasn't anything I couldn't order. Shawerma Plus has some of the best value meals so I decided to order the Saj Super Family Tray, Chicken Shawerma Poutine, and Baqlawah for dessert. My Saj Super Family Tray came out so crispy and flavorful - seriously filled with so much umami. I love how the poutine uses their own sauce and it really made for a unique combo. To finish, the baqlawah was the perfect finish with the sweet drizzle. For a Mediterranean craving, I will definitely be back. Thank you for all that you do!
