Falafel plate. Normally comes with fattoush salad. But switched for roasted potatoes. Hit or miss with surcharge.
John D.

I frequent Palmyra once a quarter. Over the last year, 3 of the visits were 5/5 with the last visit 3/5. I'll share the experience below. I found Palmyra last year. Ordered falafel plate. Substituted the fattoush salad for roasted potatoes. Asked for tahini, garlic sauce, and hot sauce. Everything was delicious as per the picture. No surcharge on any of the special requests. Similarly, the next two visits maintained my expectations. However, the last visit was slightly disappointing for multiple factors. I do believe I came in for a late lunch, by late lunch, I mean 1:45. Asked for my regular falafel plate substituting the fattoush salad for roasted potatoes with the tahini, garlic sauce, and hot sauce. Roasted potatoes, falafel, and rice were so dry and cold from sitting out for so long. Only the hummus was edible. Already disappointed, went to pay my cheque, surcharge on potatoes, garlic sauce, and hot. Since when? If there's a surcharge, please advise prior to the surprise charge at the end of a disappointing meal. Maybe it was a one off. I haven't been back since this incident but I didn't want to based the review on one, potentially, isolated experience.

These guys came through for me today. Tired and hungry with a new puppy that limited my options, they organized delivery at my hotel in less than 30 min and to top it all off the food was AMAZING! Best Falafals I have ever had! Thank you!!

Just ordered some takeout while staying in this area. So flavorful! The marinated meat was cooked while we waited. Very generous portions, and the prices are more than reasonable. I would definitely be back!

4.5 rating I've had this place bookmarked for ages, and last week when it was later at night and my wife and I wanted a quick Mediterrranean place go to, I knew that it was a perfect chance to finally try Palmyra. It's a nice spot that's fairly informal, but also more nicely decorated than most other Mediterranean spots with a similar price-range. As you might expect, wraps are just below the $10 range, and platters range from about $12-17. Since it was after 9pm, I ensured that I ordered meat that would be cooked to order. I ordered the Palmyra platter, with the signature dish naturally being the largest. It includes 4 types of meat: shish taouk (chicken breast), beef Kafta, and beef and chicken shawarma - the former two being cooked to order, and the latter being kept warm in the steamed serving tray. Though the taouk and the kafta were my favorites, the shawarma still held up very well by being served at a good temperature and wasn't dried out. Equally as important, the flavour of the meat was wonderful. The sides included: rice, salad, seasoned potatoes and pita. As a whole, everything was very enjoyable, but the salad was a bit over-dressed, and the potatoes were a bit cold. It doesn't surprise me given the time of night I was visiting, but it was the experience regardless. I was with my wife and we also ordered the falafel platter. It was served with a massive portion of hummus - bathed in quality EVOO which I love, along with an equally large portion of salad. The falafel's were made to order and were right up there with some of the best I've had in the city. Aside from the olive oil it was served with, the hummus was great too and a perfect texture. This was also served with pita, and when were were being served our food and presented with the pita, the server let us know that the cook was going to bring out another kind of bread as well. It turned out to be freshly made lavash. 4.5 stars as mentioned above, but will round up to 5 due some leeway for the potatoes given the time of night and for the bonus of the lavash (and I did not flash any Yelp creditials or even take pics of anything before it was offered). Probably the best Mediterranean/Lebanese place I've been to in the West side in this price range.

Not even going to give one star First off the place looks lke it hasnt been cleaned since the beginning of lockdown I should have taken that as a sign But i said id try it because their ratings were good (lies) Ordered a $7.00 falafel wrap The thind was about the size of a tim hortons breakfast wrap When i opened it up i saw why They only took one falafel cut it up and put it on a pita I guess this is them making up for lost revenue through the pandemic You should be disgraced to call yourself a restaurant

Falafel... one of the best in GTA

A quite decent choice of freshly prepared food. We have been there few times and always found food quality constantly good. Service is good, food is fresh and delicious, the place is clean and well lit. Ample parking space in the plaza. Definitely a place to be recommended.

Kafka dinner

This review is my 400th! Crazy, huh? It is fitting that this restaurant serves outstanding food to mark my milestone. =) Our team goes out for lunch on Fridays. Last Friday, we visited this fine restaurant. It is located in a crazy, high-traffic strip mall that includes a drive-thru Tim Horton's. There are also a bunch of nervous drivers trying to pass their driving tests. Palmyra has a decent number of seats when we got there at noon. We occupied a table for four. A server came over, made food suggestions, and took our orders. We sat at table 9. My manager and two co-op students ordered water. They thought that they'd be getting free water in glasses. Nope, they got bottled water that went for $1.50 each. The moral of the story is that if you want free Etobicoke water, indicate that you want water in a glass. As for me, I didn't have that issue. I ordered a Diet Coke, which came in a can. I ordered the kafka dinner. It came with rice, salad, two skewers of kafka (beef), and roasted lemon potatoes. I normally don't care much for potatoes these days. However, they were delicious! I ate them all up. Frankly, if I could lick my plate clean, I would have. I just needed to look like I was a civilized person. My colleagues ordered the beef shawarma wrap, chicken on the rocks, and chicken and beef shawarma dinner. They all loved their food. The food was tasty and authentic. I felt like I was in Istanbul again. Yummy. I can see what folks like this place more than Paramount. I would have to agree. I can't wait to come back here. (80)

Falafel plate (5/5)
Sanita M.

Good Mediterranean restaurants in GTA. 3.5 stars. The restaurant was empty when we arrived, the girl took my husbands and my order and somehow messed up both of our orders. It happens a lot when the waiter/waitress doesn't write down the details of the order or forget to pass them to the kitchen. I have worked at the restaurant (both fine dining and bistro) and I know how crucial it is to get the customers order right, then pass it to the kitchen, then check it when it arrives from the kitchen. This time I specifically asked the girl hummus without the oil on top, and my husband asked for tabbouleh instead of the rice (he doesn't like rice), and the girl confirmed it's possible. When the food arrived I had a huge puddle of oil in my hummus and my husband had a pile of rice on his plate. The girl apologized about the olive oil (and brought additional hummus on the side for me), but about the rice she just said "I thought you wanted no salad!" She didn't offer salad on the side, she just left the restaurant. The falafels were good but a bit too oily for my taste, the hummus had a strange taste (3/5) and their tabbouleh salad was extremely sour, way too much lemon!! (3/5). On the other hand, their baklava was divine! (5/5). I also tried my husbands rice and I liked it.

Shawarma platter- delicious
Bryan R.

Ordered from Skip the Dish. The delivery was on time and the food was delicious. I had the Shawarma platter and really enjoyed it. They said the potatoes were spicy and did not disappoint. Will definitely be ordering from here again. Just wish Skip and Uber Eats would relax on the high fees.

I care here for a leisurely lunch on my way to the airport. The restaurant is tucked into a strip mall, and it actually has two separate parts: a manakish & juice bar on the left and the full restaurant on the right - so make sure you enter the one on the right (unless you actually just wanted manakish and juice). The restaurant is more "fast casual" and has the option to either order at the counter or sit down at tables with a menu. If you order at the counter, you can also get your food to go. But I wasn't in a rush, so I chose the table option. The restaurant was relaxed and not very busy - though maybe it picks up more in the evening. The restaurant owner was friendly and gave some helpful recommendations. I ended up getting the lamb shank plate, which was well prepared and came with a generous portion. I also had a wonderful baklava for dessert. Everything was attractively plated, too. It was a nice experience overall, and for a reasonable price. Check it out if you're in the mood for some nice Mediterranean food.

Great Mediterranean restaurant with affordable and delicious food. Portion size is good. Staff are friendly. I would gladly come back to this family-owned restaurant.

This place was highly recommended by a friend that claimed this to be the "best shawarma in…read moreMississauga". It's located in a plaza with plenty of parking but the night we were here the parking was full and I had to make multiple rounds to find parking. It's a casual spot with a few tables if you want to dine in. You place your order at the counter then wait for it to be made. I got a chicken shawarma regular plate which came with option of rice, fries, or both. My friend got the dinner which came with garlic potatoes - which honestly looked so good I was tempted to get a side order. Their star are the topics and sauces. They have multiple to choose from. I got the spicy garlic, hummus and hot sauce (mild). You can tell from the photos the food looks bomb. The pricing was fair, the regular was around $12. The serving size is huge, which we love. There can be a wait as this place can get very busy. 10/10 will be back!

Finding a good shawarma spot can be difficult in the city, but a good place I stumbled upon was…read moreShawarnado! This place has a huge selection to pick from, and the staff is always so friendly. They are very generous with their portion sizes and the food is great every time. The chicken shawarma wraps are packed with delicious juicy chicken and the best part is it is under $10! We also got some catering for a party and for the price it was so worth it. Their shawarma plates are delicious and they have a huge selection of free toppings to choose from. Totally recommend this spot if you are ever in Mississauga! 8.5/10 recommend!
