    This is my favourite shawarma spot. Shawarma's are yummy when made properly. But so many places in the city make horrible shawarma's and charge high prices. As a standard rule, if the spit isn't loaded I don't eat there. The whole point of meat on a spit is for the fat to drip down and give it flavour. Liberty Shawarma always has a spit that's loaded. I used to live in liberty village and would go to that location a lot. I just happened to be on the east side and tried this location. It was so good. The guy cut it directly off the spit for me. I think that's the best way to have it really. Because sometimes they'll cut it off then leave it to sit and it gets burnt and crispy. The large is 8.99 and on certain days they have a two small for $10 special. It's good if you're on the go. Or if you want a burrito type thingamajig without all the calories. So yeah, decent spot just make sure it's cut off the spit fresh and feast! FYI, have the green hot sauce. ****Just as I was going to post this review I Googled them & dinesafe. My stars have been reduced to reflect what I found, YIKES!

    Bite out of the samosa because I was too hungry!

    Pretty good, but pretty bland. The person working was really nice but couldn't save the lame falafel - Same with the vegetarian samosa

    I went to Liberty Shawarma on Queen East for a quick bite to eat during lunch. Walking in, it was the first I've heard of the place, but I quickly discovered that this location was one of three that existed across the city. My guess was that the Liberty Village location on Atlantic was the first, given the namesake of this Middle Eastern joint. So three locations...this place must be good, right? Well, I can tell you that Liberty Shawarma's food is fresh, tasty, and priced well. Nothing screams value like their Monday special: two shawarma chicken sandwiches for $9.99, especially considering their small is usually $6.99. You would think they would try to scrimp on quality and size but that simply isn't the case. They took what I consider a medium-sized pita (x2) and packed it to the brim with fresh ingredients: onions, lettuce, tomatoes and pickles with succulent pieces of chicken topped with garlic sauce and optional green hot sauce. Fantastic! There was just the right amount of sauce as the sandwich was moist but it didn't drip (this held true even with the second sandwich that I saved for dinner) - a plus if you are on the go. If ever in the neighborhood, I would definitely go back... especially for their daily specials.

    Rock hard still use as paper weight!

    Came here for a second time to give it a chance and lord have mercy I wish I didn't very rude overall. The rice was scraped from the bottom as it was rock hard and crunchy. The salad leafs were brown and tasted off. The falalef was a complete joke. It was rock hard and tasted burnt. Upon servicing it I was like are you seriously going to serve this and they both looked at me like what's the problem yea it's a little hard but that's the way it's supposed to be. Never again no more chances and just because it's late and the only place open I'd rather go home and have boiled eggs or starve!!!

    This is my favorite shawarma spot in the city. Their garlic sauce is so good and the pita shawarmas are huge. The value is great.

    Wowowow I'm so impressed…read more Lambo's Deli does sandwiches right. The moment I got my sandwich, I knew. From of the nostalgic paper bag. A sandwich that's packed TIGHT is packed right. No mess, no stress. That is serious business. The best part is, the ingredients taste so FRESH. As we were waiting, the friendly staff offered everyone free ice cream samples. It was 25°C sunny so it was much needed. No one refused! They're testing out flavours, so I think we will expect to see soft-serve ice cream on their menu in the near future! I got the Caprese sandwich and the fresh mozzarella was so refreshing! Geniusly, there was a layer of breadcrumbs added to my sandwich, which I found very humorous... b/c really? A bread byproduct inside of a sandwich? That was a first for me. But y'know what, the crunch element over the mozzarella was a really good pairing and it works! Also, the pesto was so fresh and good.. that I had pesto on my mind the next day and I just had to find something pesto for lunch again, the influence! Honestly, we did not have the intention of visiting Lambo's that day. We had walked past it on the way to another restaurant, but I remember this corner store with bold modern-80's decor caught my eye. After our original plans fell through, we stumbled back to this street corner which turned out to be a fantastic accident because we wound up loving Lambo's so much, we swore to come back to try the rest of their sandwiches!

    Lambo's Deli located at the corner of Queen St. E. and Greenwood Ave. is the sandwich's shop's…read moresecond location (first one being in the Trinity Bellwoods neighbourhood!). This small shop located in Leslieville serves up some great sandwiches in a space that is primarily take out only (although there are a few bar/counter spots if you'd like to eat there. They are also open daily from 11am to 9pm. Menu wise, there are 9-10 kinds of sandwiches to choose from. They are all served on a sesame kaiser roll and cut in half. You're also able to add on ingredients on top of the already selected ones in the sandwiches. Each of Lambo's Deli locations also have a special sandwich, where this time when I went, it was the crispy chicken club. They also have soft serve as well (rotating flavours!). I stopped by Lambo's Deli on a Monday morning before the lunch rush and opted to grab: - Italian trio sandwich (soppressata, mortadella, prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, roasted red peppers, picked red onion, arugula, pesto, Calabrian chili spread) - $18 - Soft serve (flavour was hojicha) -$5 Service was friendly and I received my soft serve while waiting for my sandwich to be prepared. It took about 5 min and it was nicely packed. Staff were great and handed me a handful of napkins as well. I ate my sandwich an hour later and before opening the packaging, the sandwich was pretty heavy! Looking at a cross section of the sandwich, it was packed with ingredients! The Italian Trio sandwich was delicious. The roasted red peppers, pickled red onion, arugula, and Calabrian chili spread added freshness to the sandwich which didn't make it feel so heavy with all the deli meats inside as well as the mozzarella cheese. The sandwiches are big and I could only finish half for lunch. Overall, a delicious sandwich shop in Leslieville. Lambo's Deli definitely packs a lot of ingredients in their sandwiches which make for a tasty meal. Be warned, the sandwiches are huge! Also...don't miss out on their soft serve too!

I'd…read moredefinitely recommend ordering ahead on their website since there's no indoor seating to wait, but it makes the whole experience much smoother. There are benches outside and counters where you can stand and eat, giving it a casual, quick-stop kind of vibe. It's also part market, so you can browse a selection of goodies while you're there. I tried the Antico Parma sandwich and it was delicious--definitely a spot I'd go out of my way for again. Highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area.

I recommend placing…read moreyour order around 45 minutes in advance because that was the soonest the site told me my order would be ready. I got 3 sandwiches for me and my family (4 people including me). What we ordered: Mona Lisa: 8/10 For both of the sandwiches the bread was very fresh and delicious! They make them fresh for each order and you can taste the quality. The flavours in the Mona Lisa worked really well together, I loved the truffle cream and burrata. Torino: 7/10 This sandwich was also good, but the I felt like it was lacking something, especially compared to the mona lisa. The spicy eggplant just tasted like plain pickled eggplant and wasn't that spicy. I feel like both sandwiches were a bit salty due to the prosciutto, and were missing some sweet or acidic element. I added some balsamic glaze and hot honey at home which was great! The portion sizes are HUGE, the 4 of us were quite full after splitting the 3.
