    After a long day at work and travel, I was famished when I looked around on yelp for some affordable place to eat. Donair Spot popped up and I decided to give it a go. The place is super small but oh so nice! The owner James is the happiest, friendliest person I've met. When he asked how I would like my Donair I thought it's about what I want off the menu, but no! He meant how can I customize it for u!! With my add ons and stuff he recommended what I should add more and all at usual cost. When I told him ive been out since 6 am and it's 4pm now and I'm famished, he said go take ur donair and sit I will get u something else. He made me a big bowl of surprise fries!! Crispy crunchy fries with homemade sauces topped with cilantro and they were divine! The donair was yummy too. Fresh salads and superb homemade sauces. Highly recommend that you ask him for his surprise fries too! Food: 4/5 Ambience: 3/5 Service: almost 5/5

    Sandwich board menu

    Delicious chicken, happy go lucky servers and great portions! This restaurant doesn't really jump out at you in W Broadway. I actually noticed the Subway sign and was walking over for an egg omelette on flatbread when I walked past their sandwich board in front of their store. As you can tell from my other review I love Middle Eastern food! Walked in and was greeted by 2 cheerful guys behind the counter. I was looking at their kebab menu on the wall and was told they're not serving that at the moment as it takes too long for lunch. The shawarma looked great but I asked for their largest plate as I was famished! I got half lamb and chicken on rice with garlic& hot sauce, tabouli, and humus with a full folded pita. I'm a big eater and the portion was amazing for under $13 with taxes. Chicken was nicely seasoned and salted the way I like. Lamb were flat slices that I wasn't too crazy about. Tabouli was awesome and cut away some of the saltiness when mixed into the rice with chicken. Humus I found a little on the runny side. I nice unexpected find and great value! They really need to increase their visibility from the street level.

    falafel wrap!
    Wendy L.

    Great place for falafels! Too bad I never paid too much attention to this block on broadway or else maybe I would've tried this place sooner. I ordered a falafel wrap $6.99. The falafels were pretty good; good flavour and not dry - I've had bitter ones, burnt ones, and dry ones before at other donair places... Ingredients for the wrap tasted fresh. Overall the wrap was tasty and I enjoyed it. Will probably ask for more sauce in my wrap next time. Price is good and portions are good. Will definitely come back to try their lamb!

    Good portions and ratio of ingredients.

    Delicious gyros with good variety of sauces. Solid pita bread. Smaller dinning area, good for 2-3 people in a group at most. Quick service overall, but it's popular at lunch so there may be a line. Good overall value with plenty of food.

    I have had the chicken and lamb wrap and platters and I love them both. Not many places in town carry pickled turnips or garlic sauce let alone both.

    The mixed chicken/lamb platter ended up being enough for two.

    The lebanese wrap is my go-to when I'm getting off the Canada line and need a quick bite to eat, somehow the tabouleh just ties it all together for me.

    A very tiny yet highly acclaimed restaurant in Vancouver near Yaletown-Roundhouse SkyTrain station…read more We stumbled upon this place while walking right at opening, so we got first pick at one of the 3 tables for dine-in. Definitely try to go at opening or when it is not busy, as the dine-in experience is memorable - they place your order in a long wooden board to make it a beautiful spread. We got the Manoush'eh Special which has ground beef, pomegranate, etc and Sham Style which is shaped like a boat. We also tried the yogurt drink which pairs well with the dishes. The only con is that this place does not have free water, but it is no problem to have our own water bottles supplementing the meal. We also got the lentil soup which is pretty good. Definitely sufficient to share one to try, but the Manoush'eh outshines the rest of the items. I loved the quality and texture of the Manoush'eh and just the breads in general. It is a lot of food for 2 people so if you want a snack, you can definitely just share 1. Some people go here for the wraps too. Overall, an affordable restaurant with good food. We got the most expensive items and it was less than 50 CAD all-in, but a lot of the items are around the 10 CAD mark.

    we came here near closing, so i'm assuming maybe it wasn't at its best, and i honestly feel kinda…read moreguilty writing this review. but i have to be honest about our experience. the food tasted really bland overall, especially the lahm bi ajeen. it didn't taste well seasoned at all and honestly tasted nothing like the versions i've had before. coming from LA, i feel like i've had a lot of really flavorful middle eastern food, so maybe my standards are higher. usually lahm bi ajeen has this rich savory flavor with warm spices, slight acidity, juicy meat, and a crispy thin crust that almost has a little char to it. this one felt flat flavor wise and the crust wasn't crispy or well baked. it lacked that depth and spice that makes the dish so addictive. maybe we just came at a bad time, but overall it was disappointing for us.

    First (and only) Yemeni restaurant in town!…read more Came in for brunch for the first time and was immediately drawn in by the waffle photos I ended up ordering the savoury waffle made with potato instead of flour. The texture was great, just a little on the oily side. The charred beef had a nice Chinese wok-style flavour, paired with a giant tandoor bread--really interesting combo! Both hot drinks were solid, but I especially loved the cinnamon latte. It really warmed me up.

    I came here to try Yemeni food for the first time and I really liked my experience! The waitress…read morewas friendly and checked in on our table often. The interior of the restaurant was also very nicely decorated. I do think Saba Foods is fancier than other places I've been to while exploring new cuisines and I personally prefer a more casual dining experience. As for the food, the portion sizes were very generous (though I did see other diners ordering individually). I shared the haneeth and saltah with a friend as well as got the kunafa and bint al sahen for dessert. The lamb was very tender and fell off the bone and the saltah came in a bubbling pot. I think the presentation of each dish was beautiful and was representative of its quality. My favourite dish was definitely the haneeth; it had a good combination of meat, rice, and vegetables. My reason for the missing star would be price point (total came around to $55 per person) as well as flavour as I'm used to having very flavorful dishes from other cuisines. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who hasn't tried Yemeni food before though!
