We got a few items to share: lamb shank with rice and the makanek and kashkaval manoushe. The lamb shank with rice, side salad and came with their signature pita bread along with the 4 dips: garlic, hummus, yogurt and baba ghanouj. The portion size was good and the food was delicious. I really like their manoushe. It goes well with the dip. The food was made fresh upon ordering.

My husband wanted to try the new Shiok Express stall that had recently opened up in the Lougheed…read moremall food court, so we went to have lunch there together. The menu at Shiok Express is limited and heavy on meat, which doesn't work so well for me as I'm Pescatarian. Consequently, we made a stop at Golden Pita just outside Lougheed Mall so that I could grab something there for my lunch while my husband would eat food from Shiok Express. It's a small restaurant but there are a few tables there if you'd like to sit and eat there. They've got one of those things that stands upright and rotates while holding a big chunk of meat on it. That's something I used to enjoy back when I was a meat eater. It definitely caught my husband's eye. If he hadn't already been set on eat at Shiok Express that day, I think he would have ordered some kind of meat dish from Golden Pita, so he could have the meat carved freshly from that rotating thingy...(I really need to figure out the proper word for that thingy!) I ordered the Vegan Special which came with 3 pieces of falafel, a spinach pie, stuffed grape leaf, tabbouleh salad, rice, pita bread and hummus and tahini dips. This was a wonderful meal and I highly recommend it. Even the rice was tasty. This one order gives you so much variety. The only thing I didn't like was the tabbouleh salad. There was too much parsley in this salad. Everything else was delicious and I really hope to go back there again sometime! Service: Fair Parking: Plentiful and free. Location: Convenient. Lots of shops and places to eat both at Lougheed Mall and in the surrounding area.

Why do I love the potatoes with the little garlicy crumble so much? Don't plan on being social unless you both partake, just saying . The staff are always friendly and polite. They work fast and efficiently but you don't feel ignored or passed off. You just know they are busy and trying to get to the next order. Thank you to you all. I see you and I see how hard you're busting your butt. The down side is the parking lot and you can't blame the shop for that. It's just a gong show on a good day, a nightmare on a bad. If you're lucky you'll also get to admire some cute animals as there is a vet in strip mall as well. I'm a sucker for any animal so seeing one wheb getting take out makes my moment.

Just stuck with some tried and true favourites, but came with some friends who hadn't tried it before. The huge slab of piping hot bread definitely raised their eyebrows just as it had done for us when we came in previously. I suggested we all share a small order of the Mixed Plate appetizer, so we did that and there was still plenty left over for me to bring home. My favourite dip in the Mixed Plate is the Babaghannush. I love it so much that I decided to have a separate order of Babaghannush as my main entree! My daughter ordered her beloved Cheese Lovers Pide again, while our friends ordered their own Cheese Lovers Pide as well as a Greek Salad and an order of the Lamb Chops. This is a great place to introduce people to Turkish food.

I got their Grilled Lebanese Arayes Akawi Cheese (Pita Bread with Akawi Cheese grilled). The cheese was nonexistent existent and the photo comes with veg which never came. I also got the Falafel plate (Five falafels with rice, fattoush and tabouli salad, hummus, tahini, a stuffed grape leaf, and pita bread). I said no rice which they offered fries instead! Great, yes. I said no pita as well and added sides of their garlic sauce and their spicy garlic sauce. This plate is huge! Easily 2 meals. Mines came with rice and no fries and pita. Also, their spicy garlic sauce was just hot sauce. The stuffed grape leaf was not fresh and was not right. The salads, falafel, and even rice are good. But would not make another visit.

(I asked him if there's a difference between donair, shawarma or gyro, and he said nothing except which country they originated from. Donair is Turkish, shawarma is Lebanese and gyro is Greek.) We ordered the Beef donair Lebanese style with extra hot sauce. We received 2 enormous donairs with lots of beef and veg and it was surprisingly delicious. (I'm a bit apprehensive with ethnic foods in the suburbs but this time I was pleasantly surprised.) The beef was very tasty and all the veg were very fresh. I ordered the Lebanese style and it came with a real creamy, garlicky hummus and fresh tabouleh which gave the donairs extra cred! I just wished that the beef was crispier and they had some pickled turnips or something to add more zip to the wrap. Overall, a real good donair/shawarma/gyro and worth coming back to.

The portion sizes here are genuinely some of the most generous I have come across…read more I ordered the falafel, mixed chicken and beef shawarma, lamb gyro and their new arrival kibbeh, paired with a traditional yogurt drink and soda. The falafel was crispy on the outside and perfectly seasoned inside. Classic and done right at $14.99. The mixed chicken and beef shawarma at $18.99 was tender, well-spiced and so generously portioned it could easily feed two people. The lamb gyro at $13.49 was rich, aromatic and beautifully seasoned, one of the highlights of the whole meal. The kibbeh at $3.99 is their newest addition. A traditional Middle Eastern dish made with spiced ground meat and bulgur. The traditional yogurt drink paired perfectly with the bold flavours of the shawarma. Refreshing and authentic. Everything came out in massive portions at great value. The food is fresh, flavourful and satisfying from start to finish. Palmyra Grill serves platters, bowls and wraps, so there is something for everyone at the table.
