Amazing food! Fadi was awesome! Got the mixed shawarma and chicken shawarma, also brought home one of their desserts and hummus. Shawarmas were perfect. Everything was great! The dessert was some type of chocolate cake, very rich, absolutely addicting. And their hummus was one of the best I've had so far. Look forward to trying more from this place! Also loved the ambiance of the place, colorful murals everywhere.
Tried the Crispy Chicken Shawarma and it was amazing! Crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. The portion was great and the service was friendly and fast. One of the better shawarma spots I’ve tried in Edmonton. Definitely coming back!
A hidden gem for shawarma and I know of it since early days and now it has been transformed offering delicious shawarma in an excellent mediterranean flair.. clean and warm!!
We were helped by the restaurant manager, Fadi and the sandwiches were well made and delicious. We ordered one chicken and one beef shawarma. Loaded with meat, fresh ingredients. They make all the sauces in house. Even accommodated my allergy to sesame (Tahini and hummus). 10/10 would recommend. Will be back soon.
9 years a go, I used to order from here every single day. Food was always tasty and super fresh. We moved away and This is the 2nd visit in town this year, each time we ordered from La Shish it’s a total disaster to the point I had to leave a review! Hummus and garlic spread don’t even taste like regular hummus and garlic spread any more. Chicken, beef is dry, miniature portions of chicken shawarma and very burned charcoal tasting tavuk sis. Pull it together people! What happened to the quality and the reputation this restaurant use to have? I surely won’t be ordering nothing from them again.
Keep exploring
