Reviews of PrimeTime Donair & Poutine
from GoogleThe moment you step into Prime Time Donair & Poutine, there is a distinct sense that you have entered a space where warmth and energy move in perfect harmony. The restaurant itself gleams with care; the polished tables glint softly under the lights, the floor feels immaculately maintained, and every surface speaks of precision and pride. The counters are spotless, lined with fresh ingredients ready for the next order, and behind them. Each interaction feels sincere; you are greeted not as a random guest, but as someone genuinely welcomed. There is an underlying hum to the experience, something that goes beyond the visual or audible, something rooted in hospitality as much as efficiency. This is the kind of place where you feel both relaxed and energized where the cleanliness, brightness, and human warmth converge to set the stage for what really matters: the food. And then the scent begins its slow, magnetic pull. You catch it almost instantly. The unmistakable aroma of sizzling fries. It is a smell that does not just announce food; it sparks appetit and memory. The first bite delivers immediate satisfaction: a crunch, a melt, a balanced of salt and seasonings that leaves you simultaneously full and craving one more forkful. It is more than hunger it awakens. Nothing feels rushed, yet everything arrives with clockwork precision. There is something deeply personal in how the food is presented, how the staff ensure each order looks perfect before it leaves the counter. It is that attention to detail. The cleanliness, the rtythm, the authenticity that transforms a meal into an experience. Prime Time Donair & Poutine does not feed you; it embraces you. Reminds you that food can comfort and excite all at once, and leave you wondering how something so simple could taste so complete.
Ordered 2 donairs to go. They were horrible. The pita wrap was like chewing thin cardboard, I don’t think the meat was real, maybe mechanized meat that was over salty and dried up like jerky. I love donairs and thought I would try this place. After 1 hour of eating both myself and son had stomach issues. We will not be returning. You need to step up the quality of the food you are serving. Zero rating if it were possible based on the food.
I was very disappointed with my order today. I asked for a Level 1 spicy chicken salad, but it was extremely spicy. On top of that, the bowl was about 80% lettuce, with only a very small amount of chicken and the other toppings I paid for. This was not the quality or value I expected. Unfortunately, because of this experience, I won’t be coming back.
I remember OG PrimeTime in Edmonton back in the day, so good. Now I barely get a strand of meat, no sauce just dry.
Donair is always our go-to when we can't decide what to have and want something quick! This is our first time trying out this place. The fun, not so traditional flavours is what caught our attention. My wife had the Pineapple Burst and I had the Butter Chicken. We both enjoyed what we ordered but thought the sauce could have been thickened. We ate at the restaurant and mine was getting soggy and almost falling apart and my wife's was dripping like crazy the full time. If we took to-go or got delivered, it would have been a big mess. I was surprised how crispy the fries were and the onion rings were also really good (big onion and thin crispy batter). The Nanaimo bar also had a good flavor but the ratio of cream to base level needed to increase. The guy that took our order was super helpful and polite.
The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The food is nice and fresh the prices are standard but overall a very nice fresh and healthy option for food. Would recommend!
The worst burger I’ve ever had in my life. I ordered a donair burger with fries today, and it was absolutely disgusting. The burger was insanely salty, so salty that I literally couldn’t finish it. The donair meat tasted extremely stale, and the grease had basically congealed inside it. The white onions were just roughly chopped and thrown in raw, with a horrible texture that felt like eating scraps. The fries were also served with the skin still on. Honestly, I have no idea how a restaurant serving food like this is allowed to operate. Absolutely terrible food and a complete waste of money. Would never come back.
Worst donair experience ever. Ordered a mixed rice bowl to go. Really disappointed with my order. The portion of meat was so microscopic amount for the price, mostly full of lettuce and the rice was honestly horrible .. mushy, overcooked. The whole bowl felt underwhelming and not worth the money at all. I expected much better, especially for a mixed bowl. Unfortunately, I won’t be ordering from here again.
About PrimeTime Donair & Poutine

Some diners like the Pineapple Burst and the Butter Chicken, two of the fun picks on the menu, and say the non-traditional flavours caught their attention. The fries are crisp, and the onion rings have a big onion inside a thin, crisp batter. Some diners find the food fresh and a healthy option.
