Came here late night and the place was packed! I was surprised how busy the place was but it all made sense after I tried the food. We ordered a chicken wrap and mixed beef wrap and both were good. The wraps here are made with a different type of pita ... that was much thicker than my liking. Also order a beef suqaar platter with spicy rice, salad, bbq chicken 🤤 and a greens a potato dish. Definitely recommend this late night spot and definitely bang for your buck! Read more

I can’t recommend enough this place. Best value ever; food is great. We shared goat, pork and chicken options; meals include rice which for three people you can see how much that was. Service is also great; people are very friendly and helpful, when I asked for recommendations they actually ... gave us pretty good feedback on the different meals they offered. Mango juice tastes pretty good, very refreshing with this combination of flavors. Plus: they gave us three little wraps as a house gift. Everything for the best price we’ve found in Toronto. Definitely recommend to come here, I look forward to comeback. Read more

This place is incredible. If you go for lunch, try the beef or chicken wrap with everything on it including all sauces. You won't be disappointed. Entirely satisfying, unlike anything you've ever tasted before. The people are super friendly, and the prices are stuck in the early 2000's. If you're ... there for dinner I'd recommend the goat entree. I'd never had goat before, but it was delicious, and won't be the last time. Read more
