Reviews of Zaitoona Shawarma
from GoogleExtremely authentic and this restaurant surprised us with its delicious and fantastic food. The owner was very hospitality and gave us a few desert for free. Their shawarma and family combo had a very big portion and they are very yummy and our kids loved them. I will definitely come back again for their food and service. When dinner time hits it gets busy so maybe you will wait a bit longer for your food but it’s definitely worth the wait. I will give them 5 out of 5. Great restaurant and great cooks and owner !
I tried their Beef Kabab Platter, and it was absolutely delicious! The kababs were juicy, fresh, and incredibly soft. The owne and his wife were very welcoming and treated us so well, which made the experience even better. The restaurant was clean, and the calm, relaxing ambiance made it a great place to enjoy a meal. I would definitely love to come back and try more of their food...
The food here is amazing!! They were so kind and even brought us baclava and tea for free. The falafel was not dry at all, and all the sauces are spectacular. Truly a gem that I was not expecting to stumble upon on our way to Banff

I have had food from Zaitoona Shawarma on many occasions and it is consistently great food which is why I keep coming back. Today I place a 5/5 review based solely on the in store experience I had. During my experience in the store I was greeted and treated kindly upon entering and before ordering food. The best part was the 4 other patrons were also treated with kindness and enthusiasm. Thank you to the Zaitoona Shawarma team for such quality experiences within the store, this level of customer service is valued and deeply appreciated!
Poor experience and it’s a waste of money .
Very respectful staff amazing food great experience. A must for everyone. Highly recommend trying the barbecue
I ordered beef rib eye using delivery and 50 percent of the meat is fat... Waste of money!
best skewers
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing food and great service! The staff were all super friendly and welcoming. The youngest worker especially stood out—he was really polite, hardworking, and a bit shy, but you can tell he genuinely cares about doing a good job. He made sure everything was right and had such a positive attitude. The shawarma was fresh, delicious, and the place was clean. Definitely one of the best shawarma spots around. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to my friends!
This is our first time trying the food at Zaitoona's Shawarma. My husband and I were both very pleased with the taste of and freshness of everything on our plates. We ordered the chicken taouk plate with fatouch and the other plate was falafel with same sides. Unbelievable! The tea with complimentary baklava was awesome too. There goes the diet for today. Definitely will be recommending this place. And yes, it's so clean!
