It's conveniently located where the 407 and 403 meet, just off the QEW at the Fairview St. exit, just past Ikea, next to the McDonalds. The owner and staff are very friendly, you order and pay at the counter but there are plenty of tables and chairs to sit and enjoy on premises. The place is clean and simple. The food is the star and it's worth a visit.

I recommended upgrading to the Barbari bread We also started with the Shiraz salad - this was the only thing we ordered today that was ordinary The Koobideh Kebob and the Dahl Addas were delightful Please note that that we had loads of rice because both the Kebob and the Addas came with sumptuous quantities Overall a very nice experience It's been a few years since I came here last and I'm sure my next trip will not take as long

We peeked inside. It was busy and with quite a few Persians. We decided to try it. I am so glad that we tried it. Everything that we ordered was outstanding. We got the Rayhoon trio sampler, Addas Palo, and lamb shank. The trio sampler was basically 3 different dippings and came with a basket of bread. The owner was very nice. While we were enjoying the food, he walked up and greeted. He explained how we could use the trio sampler to enjoy the entrees which really made it even better. Following the suggestion, I put a little bit of lamb sauce over the rice and put a little bit of yogurt sauce over a small piece of lamb, then ate them all in one spoon.... It was amazing!

The restaurant is really cute with amazing artwork and decor to admire. THE FOOD: Lentil soup: - The lentil soup was amazing. It was bursting with flavour and one of the best lentil soups I have had in a long time. It was both gluten and dairy free. Falafel - The falafel was the best falafel I have ever had! It was crispy and served with hummus. I really like how the falafels were heart shaped. The presentation was really nice and I would come back to enjoy these. Chicken Platter: My fiancé ordered the chicken platter and he really enjoyed it. The platter comes with salad and hummus. He found the chicken super tender and the salad was delicious. Both of us had hummus and found it robbed mediocre. Halava: - The halava was super sweet and made with pistachio. It tasted delicious and it was the perfect way to end our meal. Would We Return? Absolutely!

Upon entering Tomah I was immediately greeted by the young gentleman behind the counter. I was free to sit where I pleased. He immediately brought water and a cup of tea complimentary. The tea was amazing, full of flavor and sweet. I only ordered Syrian Shwarma and requested an additional drizzle of pomergranate syrup and an order of Muttabal and asked if that was enough and should I order more. The waiter, insisted I try the kibbeh and would bring me one. The food came out promptly, first the muttabal which I can say might be better than when my Syrian mother in law makes it! The Shwarma came out and that was amazing, it was juicy and the spices and dressings where perfect. To my surprise the waiter brought out the lentil soup, kibbeh and falafel to try. The were delectable to say the least. The ambiance during the lunchtime was quiet, however after some time Arabic music was put on, and wasn't too loud, but just right as background noise to enjoy while you eat. The cushions were a Syrian style of sitting with arm rests almost like pillows. I will be back, and I will recommend anyone to come here and get a "Taste of Syria"!

It started as a little restaurant in 1984 in small, underground hideaway in Waterloo, Ontario. This is yet another new location, with a grand opening on 2024-11-30; that is when we went there. There was quite a party atmosphere with loud music playing. The founder was also there, and we even caught him dancing! They had the same menu as in all other Shawarma Royale location. We just tried their Queen Chicken Wrap ($11.99) for only $4.99 (grand-opening special). It was delicious. It is located in a very small plaza, just north of downtown Burlington. In the same building, Shawarma Royale is on one side and Pinochio is on the other, with indoor seating in the middle. As with other locations, it is an open kitchen so you can see them preparing your food. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There is one gender-neutral washroom. There is free parking in the plaza's parking lot. Review 2025-017

The staff are very friendly and spent time giving is a history of the restaurant and we talked about Egyptian Cuisine. We ordered a "Chicken Shawarma Plate" and a "Falafel Wrap".

Also, when they were cutting the chicken pieces, there wasn't too much oil coming off of the meat, which reassured me of it being healthier than other places. Falafel tasted pleasantly different from other shawarma places and the staff explained to us how the ingredients are different for Egyptian style falafels.

I had the falafel pita with fries and it was amazing. I think if I was starving, it wouldn't have been enough, but for a lunch portion, it suited me just fine. And their garlic sauce is devine! We kept having to ask for refills of it because we were all heaping it on our food like it was going out of style. Everyone at our table enjoyed what they ordered, so considering we had a decent smattering of the menu, this leads me to believe that their food is all quite good. I will definitely go here again next time I'm in Burlington!

April 29/2026: I've been to several Montforts & this one was…read morethe worse for food taste & quality in my opinion. I had the Montfort pineapple Chicken Lunch ($21.00). It came with a side salad as well as a side of white rice as well as 1 pita. The condiments are where the money shot is. Usually they're great. The onion & the Garlic sauce are/were usually fabulous but in this case they weren't! This is where the wheels fall off! The rice was just luke warm, the chicken was dry & flavourless but there was lots of it. The pita was only slightly warm & hardish. As for the service, our server (no name on cheque) was solid & had a great sense of humour. The ambiance was old school & the decor was in serious need of updating. The bathroom was super old & in very serious need of an update as well. This chain has been around for a while. Not a great reflection of my previous experiences with this small local chain. I would go again but definitely not to this location.

First of all i went to eat the sharwma about 5 minutes after i received my food and the thing was so soggy that I could even pick it up, then it was cut into two giant pieces instead of 4 sections. Next I felt like the service is good however I was not a recipient of this service. Granted, I was not in the best mood because had drove to the drive test center next door from Brampton and wasn't able to take my test due to unforseen circumstances but despite that I never showed the owner or the daughter any disrespect. I simply made my order and rushed through the questions the daughter was asking me as far as the toppings as I needed to use the washroom. I don't know if they to took offense to that or they felt intimidated by a 6ft black man in the store but I sshouldn't ceive lackluster food because they felt my demeanor was "mean". Do better.
