The restaurant is really cute with amazing artwork and decor to admire. THE FOOD: Lentil soup: - The lentil soup was amazing. It was bursting with flavour and one of the best lentil soups I have had in a long time. It was both gluten and dairy free. Falafel - The falafel was the best falafel I have ever had! It was crispy and served with hummus. I really like how the falafels were heart shaped. The presentation was really nice and I would come back to enjoy these. Chicken Platter: My fiancé ordered the chicken platter and he really enjoyed it. The platter comes with salad and hummus. He found the chicken super tender and the salad was delicious. Both of us had hummus and found it robbed mediocre. Halava: - The halava was super sweet and made with pistachio. It tasted delicious and it was the perfect way to end our meal. Would We Return? Absolutely!

Upon entering Tomah I was immediately greeted by the young gentleman behind the counter. I was free to sit where I pleased. He immediately brought water and a cup of tea complimentary. The tea was amazing, full of flavor and sweet. I only ordered Syrian Shwarma and requested an additional drizzle of pomergranate syrup and an order of Muttabal and asked if that was enough and should I order more. The waiter, insisted I try the kibbeh and would bring me one. The food came out promptly, first the muttabal which I can say might be better than when my Syrian mother in law makes it! The Shwarma came out and that was amazing, it was juicy and the spices and dressings where perfect. To my surprise the waiter brought out the lentil soup, kibbeh and falafel to try. The were delectable to say the least. The ambiance during the lunchtime was quiet, however after some time Arabic music was put on, and wasn't too loud, but just right as background noise to enjoy while you eat. The cushions were a Syrian style of sitting with arm rests almost like pillows. I will be back, and I will recommend anyone to come here and get a "Taste of Syria"!

One interesting thing was that there ordering was automated through tablets only. I am sure that you could walk to the pick up counter and they would take your order though. Got the Legendary Mixed Shawarma bowl with extra spicy garlic sauce. One thing that I liked that others may not is that none of the flavors are particularly overpowering. The spicy garlic sauce isn't too hot, the pickles and onions weren't too strong. Also, the rice wasn't too dry and the meat wasn't too charred so everything came together in a nice tasty but mellow blend. The legendary size bowl has a ton of rice, which is great and what I expected. My only wish was that there was a bit more meat. Overall, it is worth a try and definitely satisfying my shawarma craving!

It had a great blend of vegetables, herbs and spices including: peppers, tomato, lemon juice, mint, oregano, sumac, and a fantastic tangy salad dressing. I added the shish tawook kabok onto the salad to add extra protein and I really enjoyed the lemon flavour. The entire salad was bursting with flavour and a dish I would travel back to Hamilton to purchase. Would I go back? Absolutely!

It was quite spacious with lots of tables. Customer service was good and the food was decent. I called to order for pick-up, and the lady who took my order sounded nice, pleasant, and accomodating (was able to customize the Grilled Vegetables to be non-spicy). Order was ready within 30-40 minutes. The Lemon Garlic Shrimps with Rice was very delicious! I could taste the garlic, and it came with a little bit of sliced bell pepper and mushrooms. I liked that the rice was fluffy and seasoned, with some peas and diced carrot. This main dish came with a side (either Lentil Soup or Salad). I chose the House Salad (just iceberg lettuce and tomato); it came in a container all wet and soggy because they had mixed the dressing in. In other places where I've gotten salad for to-go, usually they kept the dressing separate. Cauliflower & Tomatoes and Grilled Vegetables were overcooked (very soft and limpy), and covered with too much tomato sauce. They were still tasty, but I wish they weren't so saucy.

I am a big fan of Kebab (specially on rice) and always make sure to order one. So I tried "Kebab of Rice" and really enjoyed its taste and quality. Parking can be tricky, as there's limited parking spots available in front of the restaurant. But there are extra parking spaces available in the parking lot on the other side of the street.
