We had lunch here today for the very first time and were so pleasantly surprised. I absolutely loved everything about our experience! We had a chicken Shawarma plate and a chicken Shawarma poutine. I knew we were in good hands when the owner said “I’m glad you had a later lunch so you get some crispy pieces of shawarma”. Everything was so delicious, fresh and tasty and the portion sizes just right. Just when we thought our meal couldn’t get any better, we spent a few minutes at the end of our meal at the counter, talking to the super friendly owner Ronnie! He told us about his passion for his food and his restaurant and his adventures as a newer Canadian. The connection and conversation was the perfect ending to our meal. Although I don’t live in Peterborough, whenever I find myself in town to visit my son, I will definitely make my way back. Get in and support this awesome business. You’ll be glad you did. Thank...

We had the best time celebrating with friends at this restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and relaxed — the perfect spot for a small gathering. We ordered a mix of chicken and lamb kabobs, and honestly, every bite was amazing. The meat was perfectly grilled, juicy, and full of flavor — you could really taste the quality.

But what made the experience even better was the people. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, and the owner made us feel like we were guests in their own home. It’s rare to find a place where the food and the hospitality leave such a lasting impression.

The portions were very generous, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable for how much food we got — great value all around.

If you’re ever in the mood for flavorful kabobs and a genuinely warm dining experience, this place should be on your list. Just saying — we’ll definitely...
