La Luna is a Lebanese restaurant with a few different locations in Hamilton. The Mountain location…read more(on Concession Street) had a bright, modern, and casual ambiance. 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.

Not even Tim Horton…read more Usually coming home to visit means I've never had to eat out once since Mama would be cooking all things Italian for days.. but this trip was different. That too after 2 years of not seeing my family. In short, I needed food! And this place I found thanks to DoorDash. Yelp isn't popular here and nobody uses it/ add or update it. I ordered while getting a car in airport nervously! I mean they could be closed. No idea where this was etc. Drove up to a popping spot! All men, disco lights and hookahs. I never look so out of place walking in. Food took longer than it said! I waited in my car. But surprisingly, food was delicious!! I ate the salad, hummus before I ate rice and kabob. Like finished it. Refreshingly good 12:30 am meal!! Rice was a little too Al dente. Kabob was good. Over ordered and got a shawarma too which was huge. The Fatoush/ salad with pita chips was bomb.com! So good! I hate chips but this was delicious. Glad I found something based on DoorDash. Definitely a good find since not many places are open this late! Or after midnight on Sunday! $25 CAD for all this food too!

The folks working there was super nice, and helped me right away. They food came out quick and fresh too. I had the omelette grilled cheese and an Americano. The grilled cheese was sooo cheesy and the omelette was season super nicely. 10/10. The fries were also seasoned, and were super tasty, with a very mild kick to them. It was great, although not a lightweight meal by any means. Strongly recommend

I initially went to try the Pistachio latte but I was curious about the Spanish latte after reading over the menu. It had condensed milk in it and that is what won me over. It was the perfect amount of sweetness and it actually was really refreshing. The staff were friendly and took their time to explain what their lattes consisted of. The inside was quite big and decorated very nice. I will be going back to try the Pistachio latte this week. If you are in the area and want to try a new place for coffee. Go here!!

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!

This place is a 10/10 for me. The food is always good every time I've been there. Recently I…read moreordered the chicken mandi with salad and rice, probably one of the many great dishes they offer there.

I honestly couldn't find anything seriously wrong with the meal, it had nice subtle flavours (but I'm basically trying to find a diplomatic way of saying I found them kind of boring, taste-wise) Me and my husband both agreed that by the end of it, we felt like we'd both just eaten a whole bunch of bread and little else. All I can say is that if you've never tried manakish before and you're expecting something wild and exciting, prepare to be disappointed.

To top all of the warm fuzzy feels when you enter, the food and drinks are just amazing. They are certainly on the pricier end of cafes - so this is an important consideration. But I personally find they use quality and fresh ingredients. My family loves their pastries (both sweet and savoury). I tried their salted white matcha, which was so delicious. I'm a die hard fan of their strawberry cups and tiramisu. Honestly, some of the best tiramisu out there. So happy they opened another location because the Oshawa one can get quite busy. Was great to see a larger cafe doing so well as a small business.

I had my heart set on trying this particular wrap but they had other menu options that looked much more appealing. I will be going back.

They had their Grand Opening back in late December and has been fully operational ever since. I really love the restaurant decorations as it gives away home vibes. The owner is very nice and deeply cares about providing great customer experience. We tried both "Beef&Lamb" and "Chicken" shawarma and they were both fresh and tasty. 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.

Most of their business is take out although there is room for maybe four people to sit at two counters. The owner was super friendly and accommodating. I asked him to make me a vegetarian plate of mixed salads and falafel while I moved my car. (The lot behind the restaurant doesn't belong to them and you'll get towed!) The pita, humus, babaganoush, papas bravos, and pickled turnips were very good. The standouts: 1. the lightest, airiest falafel I've ever had. If I knew felafel could be this good, I'd order it more often. 2. Rice with cardamum pods. Why have I never had cardmum in rice before? I've eaten at literally dozens of Middle Eastern restaurants, and this was a first. It was a new taste and absolutely raised the bar on the rice. Finally It's about Thyme was a bargain. I think I paid C$15 for an overflowing plate of food plus a bottle of water. The portion was so generous that I took it home and ate the leftovers for lunch the following day. And here's a lagniappe: the restaurant is across the street from the Salem Chapel British Methodist Episcopal Church where Harriet Tubman was a member.
