If you like middle eastern food you must try the food here. With Arabic food, sharing is the way to go. We ordered a few appetizers; hummus, fattoush, Greek salad, baba ghanoush (not pictured), tabouleh (not pictured). The reason I love going here is because of the appetizers, they remind me of how my mom and aunts make appetizers; in the traditional Iraqi way. The salads are zesty and sour, which is very typical of Iraqi cuisine but it's so delicious. The ingredients are all very fresh. I highly recommend trying the hummus and tabouleh, they're addictive. For our main meal we ordered a giant mixed platter with a bit of every meat (lamb chops, chicken souvlaki, beef schnitzel, chicken schnitzel, beef kebab tenderloin, Iraqi beef kebab). This was so delicious, everything was cooked perfectly. If you only want to try one meat I would highly recommend trying the lamb chops, I could easily eat 20 of those. The schnitzels are quite popular amongst kids, I remember ordering those all the time and they still taste as good as I remember them. And of course all the sides are amazing (especially the fries). For dessert we had tea and creme caramel, a great way to end the night. This place is awesome, we'll continue to go here especially for events (they sometimes bring DJs). The place is very clean as well (bathrooms are spotless).

Just visited the Whitby location this weekend and was absolutely blown away. What a beautiful cafe…read morewith amazing decour, service, ambiance, music and all around vibes. 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.

Quite quite delicious. I'm a bit surprised at myself not visiting your place considering how often…read moreI was in this area. Small restaurant, two tables and a bar table setup. Polite staff. I had the chicken on the rocks and two flafels. The flafels were made right in front and were quite possibly one of the best ones I've had. The chicken / rice itself had a good amount of flavour. The Mayo albiet left some things to be desired. Too heavy and took away from the flavour a little. All in all, get less of the sauce next time. Also, this place is almost hidden in the little plaza on Melanie.

Have been coming to Maro's for a year now. My first experience was AMAZING, with owner Maro's…read morehimself at the door ushering guests in and directing the traffic flow. Recent visits, I have found they refurnished the space -- it's now much darker, and several smaller tables fill the space now, whereas before, it was filled with long tables and you would be seated beside strangers for your meal. It had a different, lighter and more communal vibe before. Also on recent visits, the staff server are a lot younger -- still warm and welcoming, but with less urgency. So getting assistance takes longer. Although this makes for a nice slow meal, if that's what you're looking for! The food however, is still A+! It's the reason I keep coming back again and again. And why when friends come to visit, Maro's is always in the Top 3 places to try in Halton. They consistently serve up fantastic Lebanese food. If you're dining with a vegetarian -- they will be THRILLED with the options here! I daresay they lead with vegetables here. No one will be disappointed with vegetarian option here -- even the meat eaters. Be sure to check out their drink menu as well. Their cocktails -- and mocktails -- are great. Parking outside is all paid parallel street parking, since it's downtown Oakville. But if you visit on Sundays -- parking is free!

You place your order at the front even if you are dining in, and they'll bring the food to your table afterwards. I had a chicken shawarma, a mango lassi, and a couple dessert items. If you like honey barbecue sauce on your shawarma, they do have that here! The food is decent but nothing I would go out of the way to have again or to try.

We get the whole chicken which is grilled and can easily feed a family of 4 for $11.99. You need to give them an hours notice so it can be properly marinated but well worth it.

However, the amount of chicken in the wrap was plentiful and everything was inexpensive. The Baba Ghanoush was outstanding. I love eggplant and this was probably my favorite Baba Ghanoush I've ever had. My roommate ordered the Chicken Shawarma Platter which came with a side of hummus which I was also able to sample. This hummus was smooth and creamy which I much prefer over thicker hummus which can be pasty. I will absolutely be getting the hummus and Baba Ghanoush from here again.

Never having been let down by fellow yelpers, I had to give this place a try. Figured while there, I'll get enough for the whole house. Took a couple of chicken shawarma plates, two king chicken shawarma wraps and another king lamb shawarma wrap. I've been to many shawarma places before, but what really sets this one apart from most, is the meat. First, it definitely is marinated perfectly in flavorful spices and then cooked to perfection, leaving it super tender and moist. The team that was there preparing this feast, was SUPER friendly and helpful. As we eat shawarma often, this place will become a new staple of ours. The whole house enjoyed their meals and everyone agreed that this was the best one we had yet.... Well done, Shawarma Royale. You've got our vote!!!
