Reviews of King of Shawarma
from GoogleI absolutely adore this place and always have. The lamb beef platter is my fav. The sauces are incredible. The last 5 times I have been here (usually after a work shift but WELL before closing time) I have been treated like an inconvenience. Made me so uncomfortable I didn’t ask for what I wanted cause they started taking the sauces away before they even made my platter. For 30$ for one platter and someone who’s been a regular customer for 12 years and recommended you guys to several ppl, it just made me sad and disappointed. I want to see KOS succeed forever so pls treat your customers with the same respect we give to you. All I ask 🙏
I have tried a lot of shawarma / donair spots all around Canada and the US, and this is hands down the best. Tastes so authentic. The bread that they use for their wraps is so good. Everything was fresh and delicious. can’t wait to go back
Everything is great here. I get the shawarma platter with chicken. Big chunks of meat on perfectly spiced rice with amazing sauces. The wraps are great too, on a thin pita that crisps up nicely.
On Thursday night around 11 pm I just went this place there was an Indian girl had tattoos on her left arm she was wearing air pods in both ears I repeat my order 3 times she couldn’t hear me she put everything on my shawarma without my permission and added 4 kinds different sauce’s without asking me she was listening music she made it very bad taste 0 percent customer service garbage
The staff here are great.. Calgary has a lot of people that are new to this type of cuisine. The staff are so great at explaining the different dishes, and the toppings available. If you have a bit of a sweet tooth. Try the baklava.
About King of Shawarma
Known for its green chili sauce, this shawarma and donair shop at 1132 13 St SW serves halal meat throughout.
Order the lamb and beef platter, or the chicken shawarma platter, which comes with big chunks of meat on spiced rice. Diners say the sauces are excellent. The wraps are on a thin pita that crisps up nicely, and diners praise the bread as one of the best parts. If you have a sweet tooth, try the baklava.
Ordering
Ask for the green chili sauce if it isn't added, and tell the counter exactly what you want, sauces included, so the platter is built the way you like it. The staff are good at explaining the toppings if it is your first time with shawarma or donair, and the wraps are generous for the price.
It is a quick, casual stop for one person or a takeout order for a group, and there is free parking.
