Always unbelievable food, ambiance and service! Each guest will greet you with a smile knowing what you came in for! Lulu deserves rave reviews and compliments to the chef! My favourite item for 5 years now - is the Large Chicken & Rice to feed the two of us hungry people! Great prices, sauces and drinks ! Love the new renovations. It's about the food, it's about the people! If you want life changing shawarma - come here! read more

It's great to know their business has not struggled during the pandemic as they were mostly a take-out joint to begin with. I ordered a Large Chicken Sharwarma, which comes with rice, diced onions, a side salad and pita, and a Large Chicken plate (only chicken, onions and sauce). Extra garlic sauce, extra hot sauce (can't have it any other way). When I opened the box to devour it, the scent brought back the great memories I had when I dropped by during my time in Hamilton. The smell and taste were just as good as I last remembered it to be. Not only a great place to support local small businesses, but you get your money's worth with quality, quantity, and taste. read more

They have a relatively limited menu, unexpected for this type of place. Only chicken and falafel. Shawarma was good Chicken tray was great Falafel left something to be desired. No fries available, seems weird. Woman behind the cash, I can only assume to be Lulu, this may not be her name. Was very kind to me and the other people in the shop but based on the interaction she had with someone asking to order delivery on the phone...I suspect that I wouldn't want to be on her bad side...the shawarma version of a particular Seinfeld character... Cash only. There's a machine on site. read more

To this day since university, lulu's is by far the best shawarma I've ever had. The rice had bits of onion and it just blends so well with the protein and the sauce. They also provide the pita but to be honest, it is so good I never stop to stuff my pita with the shawarma. I do recommend you eat it once you get it. It doesn't taste the same when you bring it home and it's cold. Once you get it just inhale the thing right then and there. read more

Lulu's Shawarma - Small chicken shawarma no hot sauce with extra sauce - Salad Near Me - Hamilton, Ontario

There's nothing more to say other than if you are in Hamilton or any of the neighbouring cities or even just driving by Hamilton and you even remotely like shawarma then you HAVE to stop by at Lulus. A modest shop that has an entire wall filled with awards because it's simply just the best. I'm from Toronto and we have some great shawarma joints here, but Lulu is definitely contesting for number 1 spot with my other favourite Shawarma Empire. Very differently shawarma but both will have you in shawarma heaven in its own way! Let's just say I have made trips to Hamilton just for this place. Note, seating area is very limited but I have found a seat every time I've been there. read more

Lulu's Shawarma - Salad Near Me - Hamilton, Ontario

Was craving shawarma and decided to give Lulu's a try. Let me just say - it was the perfect fix after spending the day hiking. Location: Lulu's is a small, stand-alone restaurant located at a parking lot. They don't have a lot of seating inside, so that's something to keep in mind. TIP: park elsewhere and walk. I don't believe they own the parking lot (so this comment isn't on them), but If you park at that parking lot, you will be charged $5 (even if you're just doing a grab-and-go). Food/Service/Price: We ordered two loaded chicken shawarma wraps and they were delicious!!! The difference between loaded and chicken only is one has veggies. Big portions, reasonable prices (about $8-9 each!) Definitely satisfied my craving. Note that they take cash only. Would definitely return if I'm in the area. read more

INCREDIBLE!!! WOW! The fastest food I have ever received after placing an order. Literally less then one minute. And the taste is worth the 30 minute drive I took to get here! The salad is amazing . And the chicken shawarma and rice was incredible. The awards on the walls say it all. read more

We reside East of Toronto and my wife works at a hospital in downtown Hamilton. Before heading back to Toronto after work, she will order their Chicken & Rice, and bring them home for our dinner. The balance of the spices on their Chicken is amazing, the Rice with the mixture of finely chopped onions and spices complement the meat. read more

Listen. I've had a lot of shawarma's in my life. If you're looking for a Chicken Shawarma Wrap. This is not the place. The "wrap" is a cone. They literally give you a fork for the wrap. I was expecting a nice wrap. What I got was far from the picture on their menu. As for toppings. The chicken was alright. Had a lot of sauces on it. It is inevitable. YOU WILL GET SHAWARMASWAPED. There is no way you are cleanly eating this. Couldn't really raise the other toppings because there was so much sauce. Overall I was fairly disappointed. NOW, I have not tried the plate, but that would probably be the better option here. TLDR: If your looking for a traditional chicken shawarma wrap then I wouldn't recommend here. If you're looking for a chicken shawarma cone. Then this is perfect for you. read more

The chicken and rice combo is my goto whenever im in the hamilton area. The large chicken and rice comes to ~$13 and it comes with two pitas and a garden salad. The meal is big enough to feed two or leftovers can be saved for a second meal. The cooked rice is quickly fried up with onions before serving and has a great kick with the hot sauce. The hot sauce is more mild in comparison to other shawarma places but seasoning of the chicken is unique to only lulus. Its a great meal everytime, ive never been dissapointed, other than showing up on monday and finding out theyre closed on mondays! Lulus is also cash only! If you forget to bring cash theres an atm there. read more

As soon as I walked over for lunch today there was a huge line up. I knew I was in for a treat. The place is small, not the coziest/cleanest/appealing shawarma gig you would be imagining. Seems to be a wonderful mom and pop shop that makes mouth water shawarmas. Got the chicken shawarma, I noticed that theres was slow cooked on a hot sizzling grill, rather than rotating on a skewer. The shawarma seemed small when they were packing it up, however the owner seemed to keep adding chicken again and again. In the end, it was an epic meal. Chicken and tomatoes were falling everywhere, while sauce was dripping down my hand. The chicken is crunchy, delicious, and packed full of flavour. Well priced, good sizes and portions, and a mouth watering meal. Please check it out!! read more

I live in Toronto now, but I make sure to get to this place every time I make it across the lake to visit family. In all my travels I have not found a single shawarma joint that can hold a candle to the food here, even in a place as ethnically diverse as TO. I heard rumors that the owner here used to be Chef of Safin Grill, and he split to start his own business, taking his recipe with him. Believe me, Safin Grill USED to be king, until they started opening up other restaurants. If you miss the taste of original Safin Grill, try this place! Get the chicken and rice, you and probably one other person will be stuffed. read more

My new favourite shawarma place! Dont think you can find a cheaper place for the big portion sizes. I got the chicken shawarma salad which only came to $9 after tax and it had a very generous portion of salad, chicken, plus 3 small pitas. The chicken had some crunchy bits which were super delicious. Staff were friendly. I would give this place 6 stars if i could. read more

Do not know what the hype is behind this place in hamilton but i guess it is hamilton after all so what do they expect or kno about swarma . great place if u like paying $10.95 for a swarma, pop and an afternoon of diereha and gut pain . 2 stars bcuz service is nice n place was clean . read more

Definitely the best chicken in Hamilton. They have many dishes with chicken and falafel. Usually pretty crowded but the wait is totally wort it! read more

One of the best shawarmas in town. Their portions are huge, the price is cheap, and so tasty! Their garlic sauce is one of the best I've tried. I usually always get the chicken shawarma plate but I've tried the falafel and the beef shawarma are also really good. The chicken is just my favourite. Highly recommend this place if you want a fantastic shawarma read more

Lulu's Shawarma - Chicken shawarma plater, extra garlic sauce and extra extra hot sauce - Salad Near Me - Hamilton, Ontario

Our go-to spot for Shawarma. Stumbled upon this place by accident in 2012, and have been a fan ever since. Have introduced it to several people, and they have all given it rave reviews as well. This tiny mom and pop establishment has a simple, but great menu. The chicken is seasoned perfectly and tender, the rice is flavourful, portions are generous, and staff are efficient and kind. I usually go for the Chicken Shawarma pita, or the Chicken and Rice Combo (comes with side salad and 2 side pitas) or the Chicken Shawarma on salad meal. All great. Very inexpensive, but amazing quality! I believe it's cash only, but they have a cash machine inside. Limited seating. They deliver locally, $5 delivery fee. Also do take-out. read more

I love their shawarma plate. It's $11.50 for the large - includes a big box of rice & chicken, 4 pitas, & a salad. It's honestly enough to fill 2 people. It's not 5 star because there was an overwhelming number of flies keeping me company when I visited @_@ & it's cash only. read more

Chicken sharwama is tasty! Meat portion is big and we do love the sauce ~~7 bucks which i think is very reasonable read more

This was our first time trying LuLu's since moving to Hamilton and it was quite possibly the best shawarma I've had. The place doesn't look like much from the outside but the people are very friendly and the Chicken shawarma wrap was packed full and incredibly tasty. Definitely worth a visit! read more

The best Shawarma anywhere! I've had many Shawarma's from Toronto to Hamilton and it's by far the best. Chicken is always properly spiced and fresh. The portions are fair and the sauce is on point. Never takes more then 5 minutes to get your food. Never had one issue. read more

Lulu's Shawarma - Menu cards - Salad Near Me - Hamilton, Ontario

Pretty much the best shawarma wrap I've had in Ontario. This is a definite "must try" for anyone that enjoys a good wrap. The sauce is on a whole another level too. Bring cash, they don't accept anything else read more

I'm Lebanese and I can say this is one of my favourite spot near my office which is 3 min walk away. The rice is tasty u like other middle eastern places I've been to, the chicken is so delicious and tasty. His take out portions are huge even for a small. Only reason for not being 5/5 is because his garlic sauce is slightly sour or lemony which doesn't help me digest it. No sitting in besides 10 seats but too small. Take out is best option. 10$ for small (large) chicken and rice and drink. read more

Best ever when I'm home. If u ever need good halal food especially after the bar. Come here. They are super nice and good is amazing. Hits the spot every time. I returns after a decade and still delicious. Get the onions garlic sauce and a bit of hot sauce read more

Lulu's Shawarma - Salad Near Me - Hamilton, Ontario

Small hole in the wall at a corner. Opposite of fine dining. But the food....dang! Had the chicken shawerma salad. First bite and it hit the spot. Full of flavour. Decent portion size. Great price. Service with a smile from both the folks behind the counter. Not a place you want to miss read more

I seem to be the shawarma guinea pig lately, and this place is pretty good. Only have the option for chicken, and no beef but that's fine. Mine was loaded up and needed a bib just to eat the darn thing since it was overflowing with garlic and hot love. Cheap lunch, and I am sure a hit once the bars are out. read more

There is something magical about the white sauce! Heavenly. Only downside is, they don't have enough place to sit, but the food is great.

This place has great shawarma, I love the rice combo. The meal is big and I can't always finish it. The food is great and the couple working are very friendly. Overall, I give it a full mark and I suggest you try this place out. read more

The place is not cozy but tidy enough. I ordered chicken with rice the other day, the chicken is very thoroughly flavored, and the refreshing salad nicely offset the greasy taste by the way the serving size is colossal. I do recommend you to order a small size. read more

I am first time having food in downtown Hamilton. It was really tasty.

OMG! The best Shawarma I have had (aside from mine) Like EVER! I will come here again and again! My new Fav Place! read more

Lulu's Shawarma - a hand holding a wrapper of food - Salad Near Me - Hamilton, Ontario

Absolutely horrible service and food was so-so, never again. I'm not worried, with that service they wont be around for long!

Best Shawarma I have had in the city so far! There's always line ups at lunch time if that tells you anything but don't worry they are fast! read more

The food is decent considering they messed up all three orders / takeout we just picked up. The lady behind the counter was rude and something as simple as no salad dressing upset her. Over all good food, just pay attention when the food is being prepared otherwise you might come home and discover something different. I'm not sure if I would recommend this place, the nasty attitude definitely ruined my experience. read more

Best chicken shawarma in Hamilton. Hands down. Nobody even comes close. I always get take out as it is a small place with hardly any seating. Other than that it's fantastic. read more

Best shawarma I have ever had. Tastes amazing, awesome portions, great customer service!

The food is okay, it is a cone not a wrap. This is a fake shawarma. Also the establishment is disgusting .. absolutely filthy. L

Great, scratch that, incredible food and service with a smile. What more can you ask for? The chicken and rice is my go to and will continue to be until either the restaurant closes, I can't scratch and claw my way through the door or I find one better (which I have a feeling is going to be very difficult to do). In short, I'm no aficionado but I've had my fair share of shawarma and Lulu's serves hands down the best shawarma I've ever had (if you know of one better, please let me know). Keep em comin' Lulu! read more
