Cozy place with not a lot of seating but enough for 25 people to be accommodated at one time. At the front counter , you will see all deserts on the menu so easy to pick and choose. All good is delicious and I have tried almost everything as you can see the pictures I have uploaded. Vegetarian people will not go hungry here as they have abundance of vegetarian items on the menu. Bonus point that they are open until 11:00 pm

Best fresh Shawarma in Langley!…read more Authentic Middle Eastern food and absolutely delicious every time. We just discovered this little gem of a restaurant when walking down the "One Way" portion of Fraser Highway. It is tucked in close to Salt Lane. We have visited several times now and each time the food and flavour profiles have been delicious and well presented. We have tried the shawarma, quozi (sp?). kanafe, falafel wraps, okra soup (served with rice) and Lamajeen (breakfast pizza of sorts). The portions sizes are good and the food comes out freshly prepared each time. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner and are one of the first restaurants open in the mornings on the "one way". Shahzarad has options to satisfy most people (hallal meat, vegetarian choices, pasta or fries options (perhaps for kids whose palates may not be too adventurous yet ;). The service is friendly and polite. We were left with time to enjoy our meal and never felt rushed. If you are looking for great food in a casual dining environment, then this is for you. :) Free wifi and street parking. Update: you can also order on Uber, Skip and Door Dash

We had such an unexpected great lunch here on our way to Whistler…read more Our party of 4 had just finished our Sea to Sky Gondola adventure and were hungry. This was the spot I found that we all agreed on. So glad we chose this spot. The food was amazing. So good. The trio of dips was a huge winner. We also shared the poutine and the beef kefta. That kefta was so flavorfulI still think about that first bite.

Wow. Just wow. Food…read moreis poor quality. It's like "apathy-on-a-plate". Very small portions, and it's clear not everything is from scratch. It looks nothing like the photos on their website. Now granted, I ordered delivery. I have not met the owners or experienced their in-house service. Maybe I just had a messed up order. It happens. But the only delivery option was SkipTheDishes. They delivered to the wrong house. I walked around in the rain from house to house, looking for our food. Skip refunded the order, but by the time I found it, my dinner was cold. The driver wasn't even in the same complex. Even adjusting for the delivery error, it's still the responsibly of the restaurant owner to see everything from the customer's standpoint. This failed on every measure except price, because it ended up being free. And it still wasn't worth it. I want new businesses to succeed, and I would like this one to as well. But you simply cannot be successful if you do not care.

We pulled into town and immediately saw a Syrian restuarant. I was in my element…read more This is home made, gently seasoned Syrian food (non spicy). It reminded me of trips to the Middle East and food I've had in the homes of Syrian friends. The lentil soup was dairy free, blended with warm, fragrant seasonings. Comfort food in a bowl. The lamb/beef kebabs done beautifully with creamy hummus, fresh salad and pita. Syrian coffee was original, as is served in the Middle East, with cardamon seeds. A pristinely clean restaurant and one of the finest Syrian meals I have had in my life. Shukran, Waeel!

Number 8 of our adventure - King Kabob Restaurant - May 1,…read more2021 Once again, we had to do a takeout for our latest culinary adventure. We have been concentrating on finding restaurants in the city of Abbotsford so we can limit our traveling, trying to keep safe during Covid. So, this time around it was Georgine's pick and she chose The King Kabob. This is a Persian restaurant that is very near to Georgine's place so we picked the food up and ate it at her place. This food was so fresh and healthy. Nothing is fried and everything was so tasty. We all found the fresh salad with the slightly sweet and wonderful yogurt dressing so refreshing. The meal portions were very generous. We ordered a side of Dolma's these were made with split peas, rice and herbs they were absolutely delicious. They would make a nice light lunch along with a salad. Sadie's choice was the Queen Kabob. This was a skewer of marinated and flame broiled top sirloin and skewer of marinated chicken (Bakhtiari). This came with fluffy basmati rice, salad, pita and humus. She was pleased with her meal. Deb chose the Koobeede Kabob with was two seasoned minced beef skewers along with the rice, salad, humus and pita. She did think that next time she would ask for the extra spicy version, although she enjoyed her meal very much, she wants to try the spicier version. We were given the choice of regular, medium spicy and extra spicy for all of our meals. Georgine chose the lamb shank that was falling off the bone tender and had a delicious perfectly seasoned gravy. This meal came with a salad and a basmati rice that was mixed with lima beans and dill that was so very flavorful. Georgine said she is going to try recreate this rice dish. This was an excellent restaurant and we all loved their food. Next time we go after the Covid restrictions we will know what to expect. So good! We all give the King Kabob a solid 5 out of 5 stars.

The food, is definitely the star at this unpretentious eatery…read more The exterior, plastered with crisp photos of the scrumptious deliciousness awaiting past the swinging doors. As I walk in, instantly, a wall of alluring smells of beef kabobs, grilled vegetables, chicken kabobs and everything else sizzling and searing. The menu was colorful, with clean clear photos of alluring selections. I of course, order the King Mix. And let me tell you...what a find!! So damn good. I will definitely be back whenever I'm in Abbotsford BC.

The portion sizes here are genuinely some of the most generous I have come across…read more I ordered the falafel, mixed chicken and beef shawarma, lamb gyro and their new arrival kibbeh, paired with a traditional yogurt drink and soda. The falafel was crispy on the outside and perfectly seasoned inside. Classic and done right at $14.99. The mixed chicken and beef shawarma at $18.99 was tender, well-spiced and so generously portioned it could easily feed two people. The lamb gyro at $13.49 was rich, aromatic and beautifully seasoned, one of the highlights of the whole meal. The kibbeh at $3.99 is their newest addition. A traditional Middle Eastern dish made with spiced ground meat and bulgur. The traditional yogurt drink paired perfectly with the bold flavours of the shawarma. Refreshing and authentic. Everything came out in massive portions at great value. The food is fresh, flavourful and satisfying from start to finish. Palmyra Grill serves platters, bowls and wraps, so there is something for everyone at the table.

This is exactly my favorite kind of restaurant. My best friend knew it too. He loves this place and…read morehas lived on the island 15 years. Knowing that Lebanese food is my favorite of all this was one of our first stops in my two weeks stay. This is a family owned place with the owners behind the counter and working in the kitchen, they appear to be husband and wife, and they couldn't be more friendly or kind. They were so very nice to us and answered all of our silly questions. The food here is magnificent! I had never had tabouli fries before, that was the first. My buddy said their fries were excellent and they are, they are double fried and very crunchy. That is my favorite kind of fry. Pillowy soft on the inside too. The beef-lamb shawarma was special. We got the one with the hot sauce and added more. We are both also chilli heads. I will absolutely be bringing my wife here when we return to the island in the fall. Yalla is 5 stars all the way. Lots of locals in and out while we dined. They know this place is special.

My husband had the kibbeh platter with the same accompaniments. We both loved our dishes. The staff were friendly. We returned a few nights later, but found we would have to do takeaway as seating was too limited. This time I tried the chicken platter with rice. While it was very tasty, the rice was quite oily and it repeated on me later, so I wouldn't buy this entree again. Overall though the food quality and taste is quite good. If I were to advise the owners, I would tell them to remove the large tables and place smaller ones. We would have been able to dine in if 2 large tables were replaced with 4 smaller ones.
