    Beef shawarma plate
    Pranjali P.

    Doesn't look inviting from outside but the ambience inside wasn't bad. We ordered beef shawarma plate, beef burger & chicken burger. Food was fresh and delicious. You could taste the freshness. The meat wasn't dry and didn't smell like most of the other shawarma's out there. The highlight was the garlic sauce!!! So good! It was all very filling and we enjoyed our meal. The service was kind and attentive. I will be grabbing quick shawarma's for busy lunch or dinner times. Must try!!

    Beef Plate
    Lee M.

    Located in a business complex with plenty of parking. Can get busy, depending on the time. The restaurant was clean and it wasn't busy during my visit. The food was okay... the beef was on the dry side. The garlic and the hummus were good. The salad was standard and the pita was a little hard. 3.5

    Beef/lamb platter with rice
    Eric C.

    Ordered the beef/lamb rice platter. Pros: White sauce Salad Cons: Meat portions Meat is on the drier side Highlight of the dish is the sauce which is outstanding conpared to all other shwarma places. The salad is well dressed and the rice was plentiful. On the otherhand, the meat portions compared to other shwarma place was lacking. In addition, while it was fine for me, the meat can be a bit too dry for other palletes. For 19.99 it was on the pricier side, but otherwise good.

    My go to spot is Raffi's in Glendale but whilst I'm stuck across the border the closest decent place was Zeitoon in N.Van and for take out we usually get Daddy's Grill in Richmond. I was craving koobideh beef skewer and tabouli and then I had a promo on uber eats and decided to give this place a try. I'm so happy we did!! Portions and price are so cheap, also include a can of soda and either rice or fries. Even walked out and the girl chased after saying she forgot give us fresh fries. You won't be disappointed and quick and great portions and most important, low price and clean!

    Chicken Shawarma ($13.99)

    Over a number of visits, the customer service has been a hit or miss. This visit was another miss. We stood there waiting to be seated and ended up seating ourselves. The only server asks if we have been helped when there were two tables of customers (table of 2 and table of 4). She was on autopilot and could not keep track of the customers. She dropped off the menus. Then she preceded to sit at the corner table by the cash register and eat her dinner and look down the whole time....My date got up and ordered the food himself as we did not want to waste our time here watching her eat. I know servers deserve their breaks, but why would she just not say anything after dropping the menu that she was going on break. Plus, just sitting across from me eating her dinner at 7:30pm and why is there no one else covering the floor. We ordered the falafel veggie plate and chicken shawarma. There were at least 3 guys I can see working behind the cash register. They should have had one guy go cover the floor while the server is eating her food. The falafel plate was dropped off after a 15 minute wait. The chicken shawarma plate was dropped off at the wrong table. One of the guys came back out to the floor, took the plate from that table and dropped it back on my table. The food tasted good. I really do like the hummus, and the garlic sauce. The falafel was pipping hot and tasty. The stuffed grape leaf was made of nicely seasoned rice wrapped with a grape leaf. The quality of the food has been consistent over the visits. I just wished the service was also consistently good.

    This place is awesome! I was skeptical when I read about this place on Yelp. I really didn't know what to expect, and was especially skeptical when I saw the prices. However, when I tried the food, it just blew me away. I grew up on Middle Eastern food and spent most of my life eating all sorts of dishes from the area, in varying quality. Therefore, I'd say I have a pretty high standard when it comes to Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine--and I'm glad to report that Jerusalem Grill delivers! This restaurant is completely authentic, from its staff to the way the meat is cooked. I ordered the chicken shawarma and it was very complete. It came with a side of pita, a salad, some hummus, and tons of chicken shavings. It was an impressive array of all sorts of different tastes and I loved every last bit. They also offer a choice between rice or fries, but you'd be crazy not to get the rice. The staff was efficient with preparation and also very nice, which is unfortunately a rare quality in most Mediterranean restaurants. In front of us in the line were two police officers grabbing a bite to eat, and we saw their new police Dodge Charger outside. The guy at the register also noticed it, apparently, because he told them what a cool car it was and about how he loved stealing it and driving it in Grand Theft Auto V! It was really funny. He was a very laid back guy and took our orders fast and was very polite. This is definitely a gem. I usually hate eating out in Surrey because of the lack of options--well, options that aren't McDonald's. I'm going to be coming back here for a long time whenever I'm in the area. Simply sublime!

    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.
