For 3 people we ordered: Turkish Flames Mix Platter - highly recommend this to have a taste of a variety of their meats!!! Everything was incredibly seasoned and the meats were juicy - my favourites were the both the ADANA and CHICKEN KEBABS, MEAT and CHICKEN DONER. The rice and bulgar on the side complimented everything nicely, and the TURKISH BREAD was fluffy soft! Shepherd Salad - I would pass on this, too much raw onion and the portion was small considering it was $10 Kunafe -I would also pass on this, I found that they make their kunafe with a syrup that's too watery and caused the phyllo to be soggy All in all, I'd recommend the meat platters and I'll be looking forward to trying the other savoury main dishes next time :)

The place has a…read morelively Mediterranean-style ambiance that's casual but inviting, perfect for a quick meal or a relaxed bite with friends. I went for their Shawarma Supreme with rice. It came with grilled chicken, veggies, hummus, tahini, BBQ sauce, and pomegranate molasses. The flavors worked really well together, the chicken was moist and juicy, the sauces added layers of richness, and the veggies kept it fresh. Portion sizes are big enough to leave you full, with the small priced at $9.49 and the large at $15.29, which makes it a good deal. The staff was efficient and friendly, and my order was ready without much wait. It's always nice when service matches the food, and here both delivered. For anyone who enjoys hearty Shawarma plates with bold flavors, this is worth the visit. I'll be back to explore more of their menu.

Andy's has moved from the very busy Westmount and Highland area to the Forest Glen Plaza here in…read moreKitchener (the previous restaurant at this location has now closed), but pretty well everything else has remained the same with Andy's. There is a Breakfast Special with two eggs, toast and home fries, which (unlike the breakfast specials of most other places in the area) includes tea or coffee and is available until 3 pm... I guess the biggest issue I have with Andy's is one of consistency. Sometimes the food is good. Other times, not so much. Sometimes the service is fast. Other times, not so much. I went there once for steak and eggs for dinner (why not?) and not only was the steak over cooked, but it took forever, it seems, for the steak to actually make its appearance. I wend there recently for breakfast with a friend and not only was the food good, it seems that the breakfast appeared before I had even finished preparing my tea! If you liked Andy's when it was at its old location, you'll love it at the new one, it's certainly nicer. (My friend, who is a fan, will agree with me on that) However, for me, I believe that there are much better places in the area.

What the heck - how about a quick donair from Andy's? The place leaves a bit to be desired in the decor department - bright lights, dated furniture and a meager attempt at Christmas decorations. the food is decent - Donair combo including fries and and Iced Tea is $7.50 plus tax. Typical Donair -with Greek Pita, Tomato, Lettuce, Tzatziki. The fries were hot and crispy with some nice seasoning on them. It took about 10 minutes and I was able sit and read the ongoing Rob Ford saga while I waited. I always like a restaurant that provides a paper for individual customers - keeps me off of my BB. No complaints and better than a dried out old hamburger from one of the local fast food joints. I don't think I would go for a sit down meal but for quick take- out it did just fine. Jay

It was so fresh, flavorful, and plentiful! I'm not a big foodie, but I savoured every bite. My father said it was the best birthday meal he'd ever had.

The inside was a load of different sauces and chicken, with small amounts of vegetables to taste. It was very satisfying, if you look past the greasiness. Interestingly, the wrap was long but not very fat, so it looked small at first but I was full at the end. The toppings and kitchen area were kept clean, and the presentation of some of the toppings in the prep area were quite nice. It's not a sit-down restaurant. With fast food style ordering and bar seating for 3, it's hard-pressed to justify keeping 'Restaurant' in its name. The seats by the door were a bit chilly.
