Lazeez Shawarma — Restaurant in Toronto

Date visited : Wednesday April 06, 2022 Overall Rating for experience : 4/5

Comments : First time ordering take away from this resto that recently opened. Friendly staff.

Service : 4/5 Good service, we came around 8pm on Wed for our order. Place was relatively clean. There were 4 other customers in the store at the time of our visit, wait time wasn't that bad, under 10 min.

Food : 4/5 We ordered a large Chicken Shawarma half n half. Half rice and half fries..wow..I don't recommend doing this if it is late in the evening and you are going to sleep soon. My wife and I shared this and we were super super full. Not sure what the white sauce was made of but it was good and lots of it! We're not spice heads so we only got 1 line of spice. However, maybe due to being late in the evening, the chicken was not as juicy as I would have hoped. It appeared to be kept heated on a flat top grill. Tho they seem to have fresh chicken on a vertical electric hot element spit. For dinner next time we will likely get a chicken/beef shawarma wrap. The large Chicken Shawarma half n half was just too heavy in our tummy, likely better for Lunch. Also I really am interested to try their Philly Cheese Chicken, since I am unable to eat beef. Also if you are Diabetic, don't do the double carbs like we did ( rice & fries ) maybe opt for a carb and salad to go with the protein. Oh for those of you that this matters to, they are using frozen fries not fresh cut.

Drinks : N/A

Portion Size Value for Money Spent : 4/5 The large Chicken Shawarma half n half was a large portion of food! Good value for $12.99 + tax!

Worth a repeat visit : YES! Most definitely. Due to not that many good shawarma spots around where we live within...

It's my first time trying this delightful shawarma place and they just recently opened their store at Woodside Square. Firstly, the place looked spacious and clean as their sign/logo was emblazoned on the wall. I was apprehensive on trying something that I wasn't sure about but decided to order something that was reviewed highly by other people. I went for the large chicken half and half, and the large lazeez special wrap. The chicken half and half was a combination of pieces of chicken mixed with half lentil rice and half fries. The fries were made fresh that meant that it wouldn't be soggy and saturated with oil. The rice was rather soft and fragrant almost pillowy. I'm not sure if it was lemon or zatar that was added but it was good. You have the option of picking a variety of toppings like lettuce, tomatoes, green, onions, black olives and also a choice of mild to the mind blowing spicy depending on your taste buds. I chose mild to be safer which was tangy and slightly spicy. The only down side was the garlic mayo was excessive and was salty. The lazeez wrap was a combination of 2 naan wraps the size of my 2 hands which consisted of chopped parsley olives, lettuce and chunks of chicken. The chicken was succulent and moist married with the char from the grilling which was a good combination. The sauce on the other hand wasn't too much which was a plus. On the whole, a good experience and would try something else. The staff was friendly and would like to savour the tahini sauce on...

Terrible !!!! DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM ! Scam Received my food without any sauce ! How can you forget to put sauce on food when it’s the most important ingredient at this restaurant?????????????????????? Also they charge $1 for toppings look at my 3 piece lettuce , 2 piece tomato for 50$ it’s absolutely ridiculous! It’s actually my third bad experience with this restaurant and I would never give it another try! Person on a phone informed me that my order was correct and there was sauce while speaking and laughing with co worker in another language, when I requested to speak with a manager he told me there is nothing he can do and I need to place another order with door dash to get my sauce delivered separately and pay delivery fees and everything twice ! Or at 8 month pregnant drive to the restaurant for 30 min at 1AM to pick up my sauce what they forgot to include ????? Are you kidding me ??? Plate on its own tastes absolutely disgusting and inedible. I’m out of 50$ please save urself time and money and order from else where . Workers clearly don’t speak or read English it’s impossible for them to manage a simple order! Person named Himanchu informed me that manager will be calling me tomorrow to find a resolution! I’m waiting on my refund since I wasn’t able to get one...
