Food here is great, you truly get a GOOD portion size of food for the money you're paying, and the owner who you see working in there most often is the salt of the Earth.
I really like the donair meat they use here, to my understanding it's a beef and lamb mix. The quality of the meat surpasses any donair shop I've ever had before. The edges have that crust to it but not dried out so you get that satisfying crunch, yet the rest of the meat is moist and satisfying to sink your teeth in. Flavour is great too!
Don't be afraid to put on the greek spice if you get something that comes with the salad, it really adds a nice zest.
This guy doesn't even skimp out on the cheese he puts on top of the bun he makes his subs with, so even the bread is enjoyable to bite into.
This is a nice gem in the crown of Port Alberni in my opinion. RHM is a mom and pop shop, not just another chain store like the Pita Pit or the countless others that you see in the country. The guy makes both food for people who appreciate gut filler, and he makes a delicious platter and salads if you are somebody who leans on a healthier diet. I personally love getting the platters here more than anything. You get a salad, rice, and so much meat that you don't feel ripped off for the price you paid, which isn't something I can't say for most places you go to these days.
The prices come out evenly rounded to the dollar so that the prices you see are the prices you're actually paying and not just having tax added on after.
And the owner is always happy you came and if time permits it, he is happy to strike up a genuine conversation with you.
The day this guy decides to retire I hope he wins the lotto, but not a day sooner because I want this business around in Port Alberni for as long as we can! :P
To the owner, I don't know your name, but I appreciate you buddy, thanks for your business! I'm gonna scoop up one of your T-shirts and it's one I'll be proud to own and wear, especially...
Read moreWe were so excited to get donairs because we’ve been here before and loved them, the man making them decided to talk about politics and that’s fine support whatever you’d like but when we got to the car we opened our donairs and the paper was so stuck to them that the entire donair fell apart, we both had this happen to us as we got separate donairs. We tried are hardest to eat them and make it an enjoyable experience but we were left like of tasteless mush after two bites. We were really disappointed about the experience and will not be returning, beware of terrible food here, just go somewhere else. On top of everything, we paid $40 for it to fall apart and...
Read moreI wish I was able to give a 5 stars The quantity was generous and it was a good fair price, but sadly the meat was way way way to salty. As well as it was very runny. Maybe from the vegetables but it made the bread all soggy. Was pretty disappointed. I love donairs they’re my favourite food. I hope this business can correct these issues and I will definitely be coming back for a weekly donair with my family. I’ll give them one more try for sure but if it’s the same, I will not...
