    Hello sweetness!
    Sahar K.

    I came straight from Los Angeles and was craving shoreman. I was referred by a local. As soon as a locked and I fell in love with the décor and knew that I was in the right place. I ordered the chicken sharma and it was love at first bite. I have been back twice since and I want to recommend this to everyone. This is now my go to and my Calgary favorite! Service: Food quality Portions: (im an American, this matters) Ambience: casual, bright, upbeat To top it off I was gifted with the housemaid baklava and I don't know how I am able to walk out because I am so in love with the baklava about to appear at this really is home away from home

    Mixed shawarma platter and vine leaves
    Stephanie M.

    I have a had Shawarma from many places in Calgary and now, having tried Jerusalem Shawarma, they are going to be one of my go-to's! The portions are large, a platter is more than needed for a single person. On this visit, I shared a mixed Shawarma platter with additional sides of stuffed vine leaves and falafel. The mixed platter comes with beef, chicken, rice, potatoes, fattoush salad, hummus and pita. I found the meats wonderfully spiced and well complimented by the lightly dressed fattoush salad. The falafel were fantastic, with a lovely crunchy exterior. I found the vine leaves a little oily, but the flavour of the seasoned rice instead was great. Service was friendly and quick. I had to wait a few minutes for my food, but the delay was due to the fact that they were fresh frying the falafel, which I didn't mind at all.

    Regular Donair and Potatoes

    The BEST donair I've ever had. Pita bread was fresh, donair meat was perfectly spiced, sweet sauce was amazing. Grilled donair is my absolute favourite. Im from Edmonton but now i've found a reason to go to Calgary!

    I am writing this review because of my experience with the clown that runs the location on country hills. I wanted a order for 15-20 people so they gave me the owners numbers. I called him told him what I wanted he made a few recommendations and we agreed on a family packs with a mix of everything. Went to pickup my order and didn't check my food before taking it home because everything was the same in all 3 family packs and not what I ordered. 300$ or so latter and half the food going into garbage and after talking to the owner again telling him it's not what we talked about and he tried to say that was the order and finally agreed he fked up and said I can get 50% of my next order in the future. I tried txting the clown to try ordering there again a few months later and no answer, little does he know his read receipt is on and the other person can see you read the msg. **Msg for the owner: DONT TAKE ORDERS over the phone and actually don't take orders period because you don't listen (I told you this in the text that day aswell) and don't make promises you can't keep. That's all. This review is only for the country hills locations I can't speak for the other ones. Thanks (he knows who I am and if you want to talk call me you got my number) :) thanks and no it's not about the 50% off it's about you being a clown. Thanks.

    Hooked on Hummus, that's what my family tells me, I have craving for their Hummus, the rest of the food is great, but the hummus is like no other, it's fabulous! I have tried nearly everything on the menu and it's all great, I like getting the platters as it's a huge meal and under $20, talk about value for the portion. Staff are very friendly and as I can see, they know their regulars. I go to the SW location but I see they have expanded all over, popular by demand.

    I did not see any previous review referred to by CL below from 6 days ago so I assume CL was referring to my photos that I uploaded here about 9 days ago. This store is definitely open, our family dined at this new Macleod location on March 18.

    Best shawarma in Calgary. The portion was huge and the staff provide good customer service. I loved that it was an open kitchen and super clean. I will definitely come back and recommend to my friends!

    See all

    Have had lots of Shawarma in my day and some of the middle eastern foods our family likes best. We…read morestopped in for a hearty lunch and found the food absolutely average at best. I had a falafel platter which was dry, old and flavourless. The platter was mostly old rice and old potatoes. Hubby and daughter had beef donairs and described the meat as dry. My older daughter ordered butter chicken and it was dry dry dry and she found hair in it! The place has not been cleaned in a very long time and I think thats a direct reflection of how many F$&@S are given in the establishment. Won't be returning.

    So my girlfriend and I worked 3 incredibly long days up in the mountains. No cell phone service, no…read morerestaurant, no grocery stores, no nothing. Isolated from humanity. Came home exhausted, tired and hungry for some warm delicious comfort food. After a quick search for restaurants near home, we decided to order from the KING of Shawarma. Reviews seemed decent. 5 stars on FB and 4 stars on YELP. Figured, why not I'm new to Calgary and need to find some good shawarma and Mediterranean food. I order through Skip the Dishes. Food came fast. Took about 45 minutes. I specially requested for all sauces and dips to be on the side, since I've worked in the restaurant industry before I understand that food doesn't always travel well and in order to avoid soggy messy food made my request and even apologize for the inconvenience in advance. Food comes. I look at it and instantly become irritated. Everything is mixed together. And all the exact same shade of grey and brown. The skin was falling off the potatoes (and not in a good tasty way) the chicken was dry and flavourless. I can honestly say that neither mine or my roommates food was touched. Literally made me sick to my stomach looking at it. Whatever, ok things happen. I get it. I called the restaurant to complain about my order and to request either a refund or a new meal. I asked to speak to a manger, the person on the other line said he was and that he remembered packing my food. I told him it wasn't what I ordered, and that I wasn't happy. He was rude, arrogant and refused to take responsibility for the situation. He tried to blame skip the dishes for his poor work ethic. After about 3 minutes of talking to his fine outstanding young man it comes to my attention that he is in fact NOT a manger and that none are there to talk to me or deal with the situation. After all that talking, this person can't do a thing to help me. I tell him to talk to his manager and to call ME back. He agrees. Fast forward 30 minutes still no call. Nothing. So I call back. First call phone rings about 15 times then disconnects. Second call straight to voicemail. Third call he answers. Tells me the manger isn't there. I tell him I'll be by tomorrow to return this food. He shrugs off my concerns and lets me go. Well today, as much as I wanted to bring the food back and collect a refund, life got in the way and I needed to work. Still have yet to hear from a manager. I didn't even receive an apology or nothing. Wound up making freezer pizza for dinner, after only wanting shawarma from the king.
