I wish I can bring this back to the states. I tried the food in other states and I have to say this is the best one do far out of my 10 yrs being introduced to this. Going to be sad once I have to go back to the states and not able to eat here. Wowzer read more

Jerusalem Shawarma - Beef and chicken platter. - Donairs Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

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.

What is going on here? Got here 1050 am. Saw someone sitting at the table but couldnt figure out why door was closed. Handicapped lady in car said it's not open until 11 am.. 1102 am The lady asks to knock on the door. Finally the lady that was sitting at the table opens the door. Apparently shes a worker and does not qant to start a minute before. I order my regular chicken sharwma salad. I move to the meal prep and look at the moat rusty looking salad. No way did it look fresh. I asked the worker for fresh salad she said she didnt have any and would ask the manager who went to back and got fresher salad. The chicken was dry and hard. Not a great visit.. foodwise or servicewise read more

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. read more

Pretty alright shawarma. Got the chicken shawarma. Wrap was a bit crusty but it was quite good. Pros: the staff wasn't white Cons: not spicy enough 8/10 would recommend. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Went and had the meat lovers dish with a lady friend since from experience I know their plates are huge .Two of us ate with a side order of garlic potatoes and I still had leftovers to bring home to my kids. We were offered complimentary arab tea which is made with a wonderful mixture of mint cinnamon and Anis flower and a hint of honey . The way it married with the food was amazing Thank you Simo who works there for your hospitality and genuine nature . read more

1. The restaurant is nice and clean...flip side the floor is very slippery needs to be very careful 2. The portions are big. Which is good...thf price ranges from 10 to 17 bucks Canadian. 3. When you order make sure you say wrap or platter. My friend wanted a wrap and got a platter. Hence the 3 stars 4. The garlic sauce that comes with the potatoes are so good...if your not a garlic fun ....then u won't like it. But if you are....heaven! read more

I was really impressed with this place! I stopped at the Macleod tr. Location after previously being underwhelmed by the cedars nearby. They are a little more expensive than the average but portions far bigger than average and I thought the quality was quite good as well. I had a falafel plate which I could barely finish and couple others with me had the shawarma. They did half pita on top of a much larger and triangle shaped flatbread. The generous toppings exceed the pita and you end up with a pretty stuff wrap that's mostly real filling and not too much bread. I will be back to get the Donair next time. The potatoes with it as a combo were awesome but waaaay too much for one person. read more

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. read more

Waited for this place to open for about a month. Was pretty disappointed. Order the mixed wrap (only 1 size to chose from). It was the most expensive wrap and I was questioning WHERE the meat was. Now if I'm paying 14$ for a wrap ..I think u shouldn't have to look for the meat. Meat was bland and no flavour. Also the meat was NOT crispy. Overall I wouldn't suggest this place. Shawarma king on 14st by 17ave sw is by fair the best for donairs and shawarma. Or cedars deli. read more

Re-visited shortly after this original post once I noticed after months, it was actually open. However I did revisit, and was not impressed. I really wasn't. No place designated or setup as the start of the ordering line. Infact I stood for about 5 minutes infront of the ingredients table without being acknowledged by the staff. Food (beef donair) wasn't impressionable with reasonable portions but nothing extraordinary. I'll be going back today to try one more time. Those that have a 5 star review for this place and its their sole review, I'd be seriously skeptical, after confirming and reporting another reviewer for this place as the actual owners. Every owner is going to give his restaurant 5 stars, guaranteed. But I'll give this place a second try and review after. read more

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! read more

Best beef platters in town 100%! Very impressed with the customer service and quality of food. I'm for sure a regular after the experience I have had with this location. read more

Can't wait to pick up kabobs tons of garlic... etc. etc... pick up guys is a great idea for when you don't feel like going out!

In love with the food at this place, my wife and I could eat here for days on end! High quality ingredients prepare perfectly. Wish this place was everywhere! read more

I want to give five stars for the manager/ or supervisor...I forget his name... at the 16th ave location. But I can't as Yelp is only showing Mc T location. The person there was so nice and went out of his way to fix mistake. With that said I spent 50 $ at skipdish Country Hills location and it was just AWFUL. Worst hummus I ever ate. Out of 50!different hummus in many different cities. It tasted like yellow clay. Further the beef shawarma was absolutely dried out. No sauce and the meet looked like it was 3 months old. I eat a lot of shawarmas and told this place was good but it was dry as shit! read more

I wish there was an option for 6 stars for this. The best restaurant in Calgary if not whole Alberta High food quality,very affordable price,fast service and very clean place. Every thing in the menu is great and amazing but my favourite " hummes with beef" is a must if you are in Calgary and never tried that , you missed something fantastic,believe me The hall and restrooms are very clean neat read more

How this place only has 3 stars is beyond me. It is by far the best shawarma I have ever had in Calgary! I had the chicken shawarma plate - there is so much food I couldn't finish it: chicken, hummus, rice, potatoes and salad. The chicken is deliciously moist and juicy. The potatoes are perfectly crispy and seasoned. I don't tolerate garlic well, so would skip the garlic sauce on the potatoes next time. But the hummus! I am literally thinking about it daily. No other hummus could compare to this. It is so smooth and creamy and yummy that it's like buttercream. Like Buttah!!! For real! Can't wait to come back! read more

Just stopped in on a whim for a quick bite. Was pleasantly surprised. The food was excellent and the staff was friendly despite it being fairly busy and possibly understaffed. There was a bit of a wait for the food. But again, they appeared to be understaffed. But I will say the food was definitely worth the wait. I'll definitely be back. read more

I have been all over the city looking for a decent Donair place. I was not disappointed! This place is awesome! I would give 6 stars if I could! read more

I find the business worst in customer service. I entered the Shawnessy location at 947 and only thing employees wanted to do was leave and they said you will get good at Mcleaod outlet. K drive to Mclead and was there at 10 pm sharp and the manager said they not going to deliver. Only thing I witnessed was that employees used me as ping pong ball to get out of businesses sooner than later. Not again. read more

This is quite possibly the best shawarma place I've ever been to in Alberta. The mixed shawarma wrap is absolutely amazing. I've never had such a great combination of flavours in a wrap before, and it's slightly grilled. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it, and I just ate! Great value for the money. I've been back many times and will go again. Thank you to the owners for opening up such a great place on the southside. read more

They offer all the sauces for a perfect donair and the meat is hot and seasoned well. The regular one is HUGE, the only reason it's not 5 stars is the pita being a little too chewy. read more

Saw this place was open now. I've seen the coming soon for awhile. I'm pleased I did, it was a great donair. Prices were good, portions were great. I'd recommend trying this place out. read more

It is open and worth the wait! Truly great, authentic food. The staff are patient and polite. It seemed a bit pricey at first but after my first taste I knew it was worth it. A 14. Plate fed me three times. read more

I live in Los Angeles so we are accustom to a diverse mix of ethnic food.. so my wife and I visited Calgary for the first time and discovered a true gem. This place was amazing and our service was even better. Delicious food and a great value. Thank you and I hope to be back someday!! read more

Staff was friendly portions were large. Bought for our staff at work and everyone thoroughly enjoyed, even our donair experts who were impressed by the lack of mess from their wrapping technique. To anyone who gives them a bad review in their first few weeks remember every new business has a learning curve with new staff, let's support small businesses instead of slamming them. read more

Jersualem Shwarma has the best shawarma platter in the city! Their garlic sauce is excellent! Not only that, great customer service!

We have been here numerous times for their Chicken Shawarma wraps. They are generous with their fillings and the chicken has a nice level of spice. The only downside is the price point which is a little steep for a shawarma but this place is clean, quick and convenient so we will keep coming back. We also like the little baklava sample they always seem to have by the cash register. read more

We are in from Washington State for a wedding and just happened upon Jerusalem Shawarma. We're so glad we did! It was nothing less than DELICIOUS and the gentlemen working there were lovely. We ordered a beef donair wrap and a falafel wrap intending to split them to share. Well. We got through the donair and there was no possible way we could even start the falafel! Portions are very generous and everything was so fresh! We're looking forward to the falafel wrap for dinner. Go there. You won't be sorry! read more

This was by far the most amazing food I have ever had. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. Even the presentation was incredible - I can't wait to go back!!!!!! read more

The food here is so good and the staff are friendly too. I go here often, probably every other week. I actually crave it. I've tried the shwarmas which most people get and it's decent but the shish tawouk (chicken kebab) platter is where it's at! You have to wait a little longer for it to be made because they grill the chicken for you when you order. The chicken is marinated ahead of time which gives it a really nice flavour. They give you so much rice and not enough potatoes; wish it was half and half. The garlic potatoes are delicious! Overall it's a lot of food and actually too much for me to eat in one meal but I enjoy eating the leftovers the next day! read more

Great food. Very generous portions. Great value. Lots of locations to choose from. Friendly staff. Quick service. Highly recommend.
