I thought I would get to customize my box a bit like most places but you just get the standard option. Place was busy during lunch hour and service felt a bit rushed and not the most hospitable. Sometimes numbers were called in different ordering since most people got wraps. I enjoyed alpha shawarma much better taste and value wise and it was next door

Like many others, I found Sumaq through TikTok and had to see what the hype was about. I came with…read moretwo teenage boys and we ordered the larger shawarma. I got the thinner wrap while they got the thicker one. Both tasted pretty much the same, although the thicker wrap had a little more chew. I got mine with the works, but I don't think the pomegranate sauce was included because I couldn't taste it. I ordered extra on the side and really enjoyed it. It adds a nice twist to the garlic sauce. I also recommend asking for extra crispy if you like more crunch in your shawarma. I think I'd skip the coleslaw next time as it felt like a little too much with everything else. The boys kept theirs simple with chicken and fries and both said it was the best shawarma they'd had, so they were definitely impressed. This location was extremely busy when I visited. There are two sides with separate entrances, one for the dining area and another for counter service. I was on the counter service side, and finding a table was definitely a challenge with people waiting for seats to open up. Overall, solid shawarma and I can see why it's getting so much attention.

When we got there, we were left unattended for about 8 minutes or so with no one else in line. I get it, covid 19 times means lots of orders to attend to, no biggie. We placed our orders for 2 chicken shawarma plates. It turned out they charge a small fee for using credit cards. I'm not sure if this was something this establishment was doing prior to covid 19 since this was my first visit but you would think amidst this pandemic that a restaurant would discourage the use of cash altogether, but not this place. Mind you, the fee wasn't anything big but it was the principle that matters. Anyway, the food itself wasn't all that good. The chicken was dry, the potatoes were hard, the rice had this buttery taste and their version of the white garlic sauce was something out of a ranch salad dressing bottle. Also, the hot sauce they provided was from the Red Rooster bottles you would find in Asian grocery stores. I've never ever had this kind of hot sauce from a shawarma joint, lol. Definitely not coming back to this one!

The potatoes are okay but a little on the dry side. The chicken shawarma and lamb shish kebab came with a generous amount of meat and we were happy. The meals came with a hot sauce (small size) and a white creamy sauce (big size). I enjoyed the sauce but we ended up squeezing some lemon juice on our lamb to minimize the gamey taste. There was also salads that came along with the meals. I would say the chicken shawarma was better than the lamb. I think we probably would head back next time.

I ordered the chicken shawarma dinner plate and man was it huge. They really pack in the food in those containers so it's perfect for those who are hungry. The chicken was good and all the ingredients in the salad were great as well. The only ingredient that I liked less was the rice that for some reason tastes really bland. The place has some seating if you prefer to dine in otherwise it's a great spot for takeout. Worth a try if you are in the area for some shawarma.

Lately, I've been on a mission to find the best shawarma in the city. After asking around online…read moreand reading a ton of recommendations, Two Brothers kept popping up, so I finally decided to give it a shot--and wow, I wasn't disappointed! First off, the garlic sauce is chef's kiss. Creamy, flavorful, and just the right amount of garlicky goodness. The chicken was juicy and perfectly seasoned (dry chicken is the ultimate dealbreaker for me, so this was a big win). Portion sizes were solid--enough to leave you full but not overstuffed--and everything was packed with flavour. I also treated myself to their in-house baklava, and let me just say, it was phenomenal. Perfectly flaky, not overly sweet, and with that satisfying crunch and sticky syrupy finish that makes baklava so irresistible. Honestly, it's worth a trip just for that. That said, I'll admit my usual order--a chicken shawarma salad--isn't exactly the gold standard for judging a shawarma spot. But even so, they absolutely delivered. Next time, I'm planning to go all-in with a proper plate to get the full experience. The only downside? I wish they were closer to where I live so I could grab their shawarma more often. If you're in the area, don't hesitate to give them a try--you won't regret it! For me, Two Brothers has earned a spot near the top of my shawarma list.

I waved at one and said I was ready to order, and one girl said alright, and continued doing there thing, waited a good 5 minutes for someone to actually take my order... I haven't felt so invisible at a restaurant for a very long time. Anyways - got a combo, and they didn't say anything on where to get a drink, I saw the drink display to the side, so grabbed my can - and one of the workers were like , did you order that? , Um... yes, I ordered a combo, and I'm assuming this is where you grab the drink? - and then she's like oh okay. The wrap itself was okay , however the chicken was a little dry in some bites - fries were unseasoned, so you can figure that out on your own as well. Overall, disaster of an experience - and absolutely will not re-visit on my next Toronto trip.

You know a spot is good when it's packed!…read more Champion Doner looks like an ordinary spot on the outside but inside it's always rocking with long lines. That's because the shaved Turkish döner meats are juicy with flavour coated by a savoury trio of creamy sauces. The meal portions are usually generous yet somehow we end up gulping it all down in no time. The order process is simple but the wait thereafter always builds up the anticipation. Upon being called, head up to pick our choice of healthy salad to cut through the hearty protein. Our picks on rice are usually red cabbage, mixed salad, pickled turnips, hot baby peppers, hummus and cheese over döner meats plus a blend of tangy mango & spicy garlic sauces. The balance of meat and vegetables is perfect whether it's the mixed döner plate of chicken & beef or a couple separate döner boxes for takeout. The only difference is some ladies here give larger portions than others! Despite the messy chaotic restaurant interior and long wait that detract from the meal experience, there's a reason why so many patrons keep packing in here. Skip it or hit it? Without a doubt this is a champion of good Turkish food perfect for meat lovers.
