    Ok..Have you had donair poutine before? Well this is the place to go! If you like crispy fries smothered in cheese and sauce this place is great....but if you want to dump a huge pile of donair or chicken shawarma on it and all the fixings this is definitely the place for you. For under $10 this is a full meal that will warm you up and make you smile. All i get on mine is extra sweet sauce....not a veggie fan lol. The donair is good as well. Don't pass it up! Friendly owner as well. The only down side is it's a little understaffed so there could be a small wait. Worth it though. For lunch call ahead and order for pick up!

    Phenomenal! Staff were super friendly, food was amazing and prices were great. We came up for the Stampede and found this place on yelp. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for Mediterranean food and a fun experience.

    We came in at an hour before closing but they were still very accommodating. Excellent food, great customer service. Would definitely come back again.

    Donair Poutine.  Delicious.  Excellent blend of ingredients. The flavors pop!

    Delicious. Arguably the best I have had in Calgary. Friendly, clean, and not too loud.

    This is the place for authentic middle eastern food! I've been twice and leave totally satisfied!

    See all

    One of the best shawarmas in Calgary! At least once a week stop for me and others from the office.

    I've been here twice and although the food has been good, the service is slow, and the staff are disorganized.

    Have had lots of Shawarma in my day and some of the middle eastern foods our family likes best. We…read morestopped in for a hearty lunch and found the food absolutely average at best. I had a falafel platter which was dry, old and flavourless. The platter was mostly old rice and old potatoes. Hubby and daughter had beef donairs and described the meat as dry. My older daughter ordered butter chicken and it was dry dry dry and she found hair in it! The place has not been cleaned in a very long time and I think thats a direct reflection of how many F$&@S are given in the establishment. Won't be returning.

    So my girlfriend and I worked 3 incredibly long days up in the mountains. No cell phone service, no…read morerestaurant, no grocery stores, no nothing. Isolated from humanity. Came home exhausted, tired and hungry for some warm delicious comfort food. After a quick search for restaurants near home, we decided to order from the KING of Shawarma. Reviews seemed decent. 5 stars on FB and 4 stars on YELP. Figured, why not I'm new to Calgary and need to find some good shawarma and Mediterranean food. I order through Skip the Dishes. Food came fast. Took about 45 minutes. I specially requested for all sauces and dips to be on the side, since I've worked in the restaurant industry before I understand that food doesn't always travel well and in order to avoid soggy messy food made my request and even apologize for the inconvenience in advance. Food comes. I look at it and instantly become irritated. Everything is mixed together. And all the exact same shade of grey and brown. The skin was falling off the potatoes (and not in a good tasty way) the chicken was dry and flavourless. I can honestly say that neither mine or my roommates food was touched. Literally made me sick to my stomach looking at it. Whatever, ok things happen. I get it. I called the restaurant to complain about my order and to request either a refund or a new meal. I asked to speak to a manger, the person on the other line said he was and that he remembered packing my food. I told him it wasn't what I ordered, and that I wasn't happy. He was rude, arrogant and refused to take responsibility for the situation. He tried to blame skip the dishes for his poor work ethic. After about 3 minutes of talking to his fine outstanding young man it comes to my attention that he is in fact NOT a manger and that none are there to talk to me or deal with the situation. After all that talking, this person can't do a thing to help me. I tell him to talk to his manager and to call ME back. He agrees. Fast forward 30 minutes still no call. Nothing. So I call back. First call phone rings about 15 times then disconnects. Second call straight to voicemail. Third call he answers. Tells me the manger isn't there. I tell him I'll be by tomorrow to return this food. He shrugs off my concerns and lets me go. Well today, as much as I wanted to bring the food back and collect a refund, life got in the way and I needed to work. Still have yet to hear from a manager. I didn't even receive an apology or nothing. Wound up making freezer pizza for dinner, after only wanting shawarma from the king.
