  Best shawarma in the GTA.
  
  Uses cabbage instead of lettuce which gives the sandwich a nice crispyness. All white meat if you prefer it.
  
  A few people noted that the chicken is sometimes reheated. This is necessary bc the all white meat will dry out into shoe leather if left on the rotisserie all day. Do you want fresh chicken breast meat or a processed lump of formed meat?
  
  The tabbouleh and rice and lintels are good. Samosas and falafel are home made.

  Not the fanciest place to eat, but with food that good it doesn't need to be. My wife had a falafel sandwich, I had the chicken shawarma.  Both were excellent.  The falafel wasn't overloaded with toppings, but what there was added to the flavour rather than distracted from it. The shawarma was loaded with chicken, which was juicy and delicious. The hot sauce added a deep, flavourful warmth without the ridiculous burn found in many other places.
  
  Owner was polite and helpful. Will definitely go back.

  As another reviewer stated, they do use all white meat for their chicken shawarma. I went with the mixed chicken and beef platter, with the beef being gyro style.
  
  The owner is indeed very gregarious and a joke-teller. The inside is functional at best and a bit rundown, but fine if you're just grabbing a quick bite.
  
  Sorry, back to the platter... I dined in, and it was nice to eat off a real plate with real utensils. It's not cheap though, as the platter is $15 with tax. Even then, I feel that this could go for the best shawarma place in Brampton if it wasn't for the fact that my chicken was reheated. I'm sure there's practical reasons why it was done, but bottom line: even if the meat quality is good, it's going to affect the taste and dry it out a little.
  
  There was still some very good taste however, with wonderful hot sauce and easily the best hummus in town. They gyro meat was also very good and I'd have to say I still enjoyed my meal overall. However, the higher pricing (even if it is white meat) and reheating of the chicken means that the experience can only go so far. If those issues were looked at, this place could be the first shawarma place in Brampton better than average, but based on how long the place has been open, I imagine things are likely to remain the same.

  I was a bit worried when I walked in at 12:20 on a Wednesday and only saw one other customer.
  
  Place is a bit run down,  every corner is used for storage,  tables are very sticky when you rest your arms.
  
  They have 5 topping for your sharawma:  tomatoes,  onions,  cabbage,  tabbouleh,  and hummus.  Surprised they dot have lettuce,  didnt care though I never put lettuce in my shawarma.
  
  You order first,  then sit.  I don't really like his because I want to see how much of each ingredient is going in.  The owner (I'm assuming)  then brings it to your table.  He is very nice and polite.
  
  The flavour was actually quite good,  hot sauce was great,  etc.  However the bread and chicken was very dry and the shawarma was very small.
  
  The chicken came from a glass casserole dish half covered with saran wrap.  You can tell the this dish used to be full,  no way of knowing if the chicken was from today or yesterday but it's obviously cold and dry.  Not sure why you don't get chicken straight off the spit when he clearly doesn't have the volume needed to cut in advance.
  
  My search for a good shawarma in Brampton continues. Not sure why this place has so many 5 stars, do people here have no standards? Did the quality change?
