"This place is the best Donair restaurant in town. Service is above and beyond friendly. Food is great and prices are fair. I usually bring lunch to work but whenever I don't, this is where I go."

"The food was absolutely delicious! We had donairs. The meat was plentiful, moist, very, very tasty. The whole wrap was scrumptious and hardy. We also had the Samosa — best Samosa I've had in a long time."

"Following up on the review I promised the owner... easy 5 stars. Drove 30 minutes across town to try it and it was definitely worth it. Owner is a very friendly guy! You can tell he's really passionate about his food and satisfying his customers. Tries to avoid frozen things and keeps everything fresh, especially the fries which are hand cut. Donair was very tasty and the meat was tender and juicy."

"We decided to try it today and it was absolutely delicious! The person at the counter — who seemed to be the owner — was very friendly and helpful. Four people paid $65.00 (excluding tip), which feels quite reasonable. The garlic sauce was outstanding."
