The food is so good, if they lived in my neighbourhood I would be in trouble I would eat there so often. I like the Chicken Shawarma the best.

All were absolutely delicious, but the Shawarma itself is what really stood out for me. My only complaint was that the Shawarma was served wrapped in paper with no plate. As... More

The food is authentic and awesome and although some people say "it's just Shawarma".... there is something about this particular Shawarma joint that is extra yum yum delicious. Location is in depressing part of town and the interior is a couple decades sad.. but once I bit into my first Falafel wrap and Fattoush salad... the scenery melted away as... More

This place has in my opinion the best shawarma in Winnipeg. Very friendly owners and very quick service. Price is very reasonable for the amount of food you get. Try the cheese pie, it is amazing! Skip Shawarma Time and eat here instead.

Having driven past this place a number of times, I was happy to finally go inside and try the food. In a word - amazing! I had the falafel platter (large), and wow... I was able to get through half before I had to stop. So fresh and tasty, great sauces.. everything about it was bang on. They also gave... More

The food and service was good. For when I went it was quiet with a steady flow of people coming through. Atmosphere is true to te culture.

Being from Ottawa (land of Shawarma) this was a bit of a disappointment. I went to satisfy my huge craving, and left with a much better appreciation for Shawarma Palace in Ottawa. They don't serve fresh roasted potatoes with your meal, but french fries instead.

Have been there many times. I spent alot of time in the middle east while I was in the military and this place is even better than there. The shawarmas are awesome. So are the samosas. The family that runs it are very freindly and provide great service. The place looks a little run down, but that's the neighhborhood. Place... More
