Yesterday I bought two'Phillo' shawarmas, one for myself & one for my daughter. When we got home, my daughter took one bite & immediately said she wouldn't eat it. At first, I didn't understand why, but after trying it myself, I was very disappointed as well.
Initially, I thought the bread was an Italian-style panini, as it looked that way when the employee was preparing it. However, in reality, it tasted awful & had a rubbery texture. It was soaked with grease from the meat & vegetables, making it excessively oily. On top of that, the meat had a strange flavor-something like tarragon or even cinnamon-which completely overpowered the natural taste of the meat.
I believe that adding a bit of garlic to the marinade would significantly improve the flavor. Overall, both my daughter & I were very disappointed-we spent money but got no enjoyment from the food.
I would strongly recommend that management reconsider the meat recipe & use higher-quality bread.
DoorDash screwed up royally but thank goodness for Naijah(sorry if spelled incorrectly) from Daniel Johnson location who went above & beyond to correcting the situation & went as far as to personally delivering my order. Thank you the great customer service!
The worst shawerma i had ever. No taste so expensive … will be the last time i go there!!
Great Palace Nice choice of salads & sandwiches lebanese tasty & healthy food. Big place great for families
Honestly the pitas here are alright when made right, but that's just the thing…you never know what you're going to get. They are extremely inconsistent. The last couple of times have been very disappointing. Everything is flavorless. Meat, vegetables even the garlic sauce. The potatoes taste like absolutely nothing. Some pieces of chicken felt like i was chewing on a band-aid. You order 2 identical sandwiches & they arn't even the same sometimes. One will be grilled & crispy, the other will not be grilled, cold with barely anything in it. Also very different when you have it delivered instead of picking it up in store. You can't be like this with so much competition in the area.
Best shawarma I've tried in Canada so far! It honestly felt nostalgic & reminded me of home. Alan & Rafai were super friendly & gave top-tier customer service. Definitely my new go-to spot! they were not shy with the garlic sauce ;)
