What a great spot! Fresh quality food, friendly service! Take out or eat in. Vegetarian available. Our fave is chicken shawarma. Lovely salads, and delish baklava ! read more

This review is for the Kingston Road location as I am able to enjoy the at this location more often. I've eaten here a few times. It's always fresh. The cabbage roll is like nothing I've tasted before! It's filled with falafel and lentils. There's a tangy sauce on top. The samosas are spicy and, like anything you order here, you can see the ingredients. I have enjoyed the vegetarian and chicken. Both good. The staff are conscientious and put each order together as they are ordered. There is usually a small line up of 3-4 people, so you know there are people willing to wait for the food. - it's that good. The only thing I would have different in a future order is to ask for my cabbage roll to warmed all the way through. It was warmed up, but given its substantial size, it was cold in the middle. It tasted fine (I was hungry), but I'm sure the flavours would come through even better when heated up longer. read more

Delish! So many flavours. So many sides. Really friendly people too! Veg & chicken options read more

The folks here are of the kindest one's likely to ever meet! I basically took home the entire menu on this day [Tuesday, June 6th, 2023] lol :D I can only imagine that this is a Leslieville staple because virtually everyone that came in while I was there (had to let my slow brain have some time to make an attempt at choice, while letting everyone else go ahead of me lol) were clearly happy to be there! They seem certain in addition to enjoying the highly fresh selection! : ) I ordered the falafel plate with kale salad, garden salad, and the bell pepper + eggplant roast; I also got beef wraps with all the sauces. :P Typical folks might be "oh, that seems like a reasonable amount...." Welp, my friends, I'm clearly atypical, for better or worse: I also got 2 sea bass, some chicken, 3 cabbage rolls, and 4 grape leaves..., 2 Jarritos sodas, and 4 seasonal thirst-quenching delicious watermelon juices--perfect for when global heating from climate change burns our forests and Toronto gets even more air quality warnings! Anywho, I was pitiful and the kind woman (Abeba, the owner) helped find a nice box to carry the paper bag of the sole joy left to me--food! Okay, the situation isn't really _that_ bad, folks! Long story short (or short story after long), I'm quite certain you'll find at least one of you favourite plates or wraps here, but make sure to have tried a few configurations to make sure it's the one you'll love most (that's right everyone--culinary adventure time!) : ) Case in point, I almost tried the whole menu and I'm gaga for this spot! Ambience, you say? Pretty and clean seating inside and a lovely little bench just outside, too! Feels very comfortable! read more

Amazing people and food! Home cooking everytime. Appreciate how they make me and my family feel each visit.

The shawarma plate is excellent. I have to admit that I haven't sampled the menu more broadly, but there's still time.

Great food, Wonderful service and very clean spot. I am a vegan and they have a tasty selection here. The roasted eggplant is so tasty read more

Chicken shawarma plate. I love how this works. You get to choose three items that you want to make your plate

We were excited to see Delina opening a second location on Kingston Road near Silver Birch, especially at a time when restaurants were only able to provide takeout. It looks like their confidence is paying off, and they certainly deserve to succeed. Everything I've tried has been fresh and tasty, and the servings are very generous. This is an excellent place for vegetarians: try a falafel platter with many choices of sides. And get a baklava for dessert. The service can be a bit slow, but I think that's the cost of food that hasn't been sitting over a warming tray. Friendly staff. read more

From the clean decor, lovely ladies manning the front and the delicious food, I would highly recommend this place. I ordered two falafels from here and they were absolutely delicious. Would definitely come back here again! read more

so yummy! ordered off of ritual and got $5 off. ordered the chicken plate with 3 sides of chickpea curry, lentil rice, and potatoes, carrots & peas. unfortunately, i only got one piece of carrot but everything else was fine. i had a pretty small appetite so i had this for a late lunch and dinner. read more

MUST TRY Chicken shawarma plate was tasty, healthy, and a great portion. Had lima beans, rice as side options. Recommended: Samosa was solid OK: Cabbage roll. For me, I didn't like this because it has no meat, and it was a bit too spicy I like how Delina herself was there behind the hot table, taking orders and talking to friends. Good budget option for the area, especially if you have a great companion with you. read more

Stopped by for a takeout snack and wow were we impressed! Tried the chicken plate with sides of eggplant, tabouleh, chickpeas. It was exceptional. This is the kind of place that deserves your business: fast, friendly, healthy, value-priced, great variety on the menu, AND delicious. It's rare to find places with all these things in one place, but Delina has it. Will definitely be back. read more

Ordered the veggie combo for $15 and everything was so good! Excellent quality beet, kale, lentil and potato salad for a very fair price. I'll be going out of my way to go back again! Truly comfort food. read more

Really good tasty, fast and friendly restaurant. The Falafel sandwich is delicious! A definite must try. Very fresh and not premade. Will have to try some other things on the menu but the falafel is too good to flip to something else. This will be a regular pit stop. read more

Just moved to the area and was excited to try/support a local restaurant . This place is great ! Good portion sizes , tons of options, well-priced and delicious! I'll be back :) read more

we stopped by here today and loved the shawarma plate! Also the staff were kind. Thank you

Great place to stop for a quick affordable meal (that isn't pizza) near the beaches if you are visiting. Just a 8 min walk from the boardwalk. Friendly staff. No frills restaurant with limited seating. Decent selection of salads and meats. Large portion sizes. I ordered the chicken plate with cabbage, eggplant and rice and was pretty satisfied although the chicken was a bit dry (although they make up for it with lots of sauces). My wife ordered the veggie wrap and she liked it a lot and mentioned that it was very filling. Overall I would come back if I'm in the area and looking for a quick meal. read more

The food at Delina's is amazing. The portions are huge and the prices are reasonable. I usually end up sharing the chicken plate as the portions are hearty. Best to order on ritual or for pick up. Overall 10/10 - it is so delicious and flavourful. Don't forget to order all the sauces! read more

The shawarma is okay. Very inconsistent in terms of taste and quality. Should not be the case. The restaurant is in a competitive area in the Beaches. They need to focus on consistency. read more

This is an awesome, affordable and healthy option. The staff is also so friendly and helpful! Love going here regularly

Fresh food and friendly staff. I tried a mixed meat wrap, chicken plate and vegetable plate. Everything is so delicious! read more

Delina Restaurant - Chicken plate - Middle Eastern Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Our whole family loves this place, even my 5 yrs old picky eater. He loves the fish which is sea bass and cooked to perfection. I especially love the eggplant which is full of roasted flavours. Their rice is mixed with many ingredients including fried onions which gives it great flavours. All their different sauces are super flavourful as well. I'm so glad this place is walking distance to us. Thank you Delina read more

First time here and can't wait to come back. Got the veggie platter and veggie samosas. All veggie tasted amazing very fresh and you can tell there is a lot of care and quality in each dish. All complimented very well. Portion wasn't massive but doesn't matter to me if the quality is very good read more

Super clean, great price for great quality food. I got the mix wrap + the beet salad before heading towards the beach and it was amazing.

There are no words to describe the love these women put into their food. From the stuffed grape leaves to the meat to the plethora of veggie options, Delina delivers quality all along the way. Thank you so much for keeping us happy even during these trying times. Much love from your Beaches community. read more

This place is fantastic for take out. Usually we get a container of mixed salads, tabouli, chic peas, beets, and eggplant. The falafel, cabbage rolls, and chicken are tasty! The service is always friendly and the food is great! :) read more

We were in the Beaches area and wanted to grab some take out with us to eat at the beach. We ended up going to Dalina's and I'm so happy that we did. All the food is prepared by Dalina herself ( who is the restaurant owner) . After having a short conversation with her it was easy to see that she loves what she does and prepares the food with passion and love. The food is middle eastern, the ambiance is very simple and casual. And when I say simple I mean V-E-R-Y simple....it's more like a casual eatery sort of place. I was happy to see that most of the food is vegetarian, so we had plenty to choose from. We ended up getting cabbage rolls, tabouleh, beet salad, delish lentil rice, and so much more. The food was unbelievable! So homemade and delicious. I literally can't wait to go back and have more of Dalina's delicious cooking ! :) read more

Great food. The plates are quite large. Hummus is delicious. Shawarma is excellent. Stewed Lima beans may be my favorite.

So the fact they're still in business is very telling.... other similar restaurants in the area have come and gone like the changing of the seasons.... If you're a fan of Lebanese/Mediterranean food you won't be disappointed with the offerings @ Delina... and we're not talking just falafel and shawarma here.. they have a wide assortment of options. Not a lot of seats, so plan on taking your food to go.... If you do decide to stay the environment is basic, but very clean, you may end up sharing your table though..... read more

To put it simple it's Freshii on steroids with a Mediterranean twist for half the price. The food was fresh, healthy and the women who works there is very friendly. Being a picky eater who goes to restaurants a couple of times every day and don't normally leave any reviews but I think this local business deserves 5 starts as you can easily tell people put afford in running this place. read more

Very fresh salad sides with colourful healthy vegetables on the chicken and falafel plates and baklava was really yummy

Ordered a ton of stuff through Just Eat! Everything was really tasty. - falafel sandwiches - lentil rice - potatoes - tabbouleh - bean salad - lima beans - eggplant The falafel balls were freshly made and not prefried. Super tender and fluffy on the inside and perfectly crisp on the outside. Great seasoning too. Favourful and not too salty. They were out of a few things (okra and cauliflower) and replaced it with salad and rice. While delicious, I would have appreciated a call so I could choose my replacements. Having said that, I'll still order from them again! read more

There aren't enough words to describe the heavenly, incredible food not the hospitality! We ordered the chicken and chicken/beef plates to go. It was crazy busy but the staff still made for warm welcomes and smiles. The portions are huge and the pricing is excellent. Did I mention the food is out of this world? read more

Everything here is freshly prepared and you can definitely taste the difference. Extremely friendly service and reasonably priced. Highly recommend the cabbage rolls and lentil soup! read more

I've always loved Delina but in the past year I've been nothing but disappointed. The falafel was so dry I ended up just throwing it in the compost and the lentil soup that I once adored is inconsistent and today I tried once more only to get a soup with a fully burnt aftertaste. So sad that it's like this as I love supporting local business but I think that's my last try. read more

So I ordered thru skip the dishes and the food was terrible. A container of dry lentil rice with tasteless hummus. Spent forty dollars and had to cook. I know we are in a pandemic and I am trying to support local restaurant but this was horrible. read more

Quick and fresh food. Everything is homemade and taste delicious. They also give you a ton of food. The restaurant is impeccably maintained. read more

The falafel plate was so good, and the staff were super friendly. $12 for food that fresh and delicious is totally worth it. I'll be back!

Hidden gem: a crazy amount of food (one box per two people is enough), delicious, super friendly staff...what else could you ask for?
