    Pretty flavourful food, great presentation! A bit on the lighter side than I’m used to for a chicken shawarma plate but the rice was super flavourful. Also really enjoyed the grape leaves as a vegetarian option!

    This is the story of an underdog. A small spot in Etobicoke serving absolutely fantastic chicken shawarma with rice. The portions are fantastic for 2 meals per person or for 1 meal for 2 persons. Hence the price is slightly higher but totally worth it. The staff is very courteous and explains how they prepare any of the items you want to enquire about. The chicken shawarma was freshly cut from the stick and made extra crispy as I requested. Well done team Mooring Eats. You will see me soon for more 😎

    Chicken isn’t top quality. Taste is bland. No flavour. Definitely not returning. Not worth it. Not my first shawarma store to buy from. These guys chop up the meat like it’s onions. After cutting it from the grille. It’s placed on a horizontal grill and chopped up like it’s onions… weird way of preparing the meat at a shawarma store. The other shawarma shops cut it straight from the vertical grille and place the meat in the pita. This shop operates differently the way they prepare the meat compared to the other shawarma shops I’ve been to. They have cool old school VW’s parked up in front… worth taking a picture of. Check it out!

    Absolutely delicious! 🤩 The best Mediterranean Cuisine at Etobicoke! 😍 Their wraps are yummy! If you want to try something different then you should give a chance to eat ‘Dolmadakia Plate’ and ‘Latakia Eggplant Kabab’! I also recommend ‘Cece Chocolate’ 😌

    The food from Mooring Eats is delicious. The attention to detail is impeccable and I appreciate the level of preparation that goes into the taste and display of the food. I have only had the takeout, but consistently we have received a great standard of quality. I hope more people find this restaurant and support it since it’s a gem for middle eastern food.

    We ordered the fish and beef plates. The owner greeted us and told us about the history of the place, and made us feel very welcome. The food was excellent, I’d be willing to say that’s the best beef shawerma I’ve had in Toronto. We will be back!

    Ever eat something so satisfying that it’s got you saying moooore!? 😋 At Mooring Eats, they’ve got delicious Syrian dishes that are authentic and halal. Satisfy your hunger with their shawarma, falafel, fajitas, or salads! We especially loved their chicken shawarma plate which came with 2 sides (we chose basmati rice and garlic potatoes), hummus, and garlic sauce. So delicious and full of flavour with a nice kick! They’ve got tables set up outside of the restaurant if you prefer to eat there. They’re also literally minutes away from Lakeshore where you can also enjoy your meal by the water! If you’re in the Toronto Lake Shore area, be sure to drop by this spot to grab a bite!

    The value is ok here; especially the daily specials. The staff are very friendly and quick too. If not for these two things my rating would be a bit lower. In my order, the fries didn't taste very fresh. Working in fast food in the past, it tasted like I was served fries that were just re-dipped in the fryer to heat up. Also, the pitas were a bit dry/hard too, so likely not the freshest either. The chicken shawarma and toppings were great. I'll probably go back to see if this was just a one off, but there are other shawarma options in the neighborhood.

    Was there to collect online order through a 3rd party. First timer and loved the fish and eggplant and cauliflower vegetable side. Served on a bed of aromatic rice. Delicious food. Interesting decor as well with interesting photos of Syria on one of the walls. The take out service was excellent ! I will return for more.

    Nice experience. Their food is so yummy, I recommended it to everyone who love Shawrma and Falafel...thanks for the stuff and good luck 👍

    I've ordered online from here before and love the food. Came into restaurant for first time today. Still fantastic food. The restaurant is spotless. Great service and great food.

  • 5/5 Mario V. 5 months ago on Google
    I've had a few falafel wraps in my days and by far this is the best. I get everything on it and all the flavours go so well. The hot sauce is pretty mild so if you like hot you might need more. Made fresh in a few minutes and the lake is right there to enjoy as you eat. The serving is large but there are some great side you can add. Love it

    Fast service and delicious well seasoned poutine. I initially visited to dine in, but then opted to dine out for comfort. The interior was spotless, the cashier efficient, and the dining area functional yet spacious. If you're looking for a good spin on the traditional poutine, I'd definitely suggest the Chicken Shawarma poutine at this location. It was so good and the portion sizes were larger than I expected.

    Food was good and the staff were nice. The quantity is definitely good for the buck. Hummus needs to be a bit more creamy.

    Step into Mooring and embark on a gastronomic journey that transcends the ordinary. This shawarma haven is a true gem, seamlessly blending flavors and craftsmanship to create an unparalleled dining experience. Each bite of Mooring shawarma is a harmonious dance of perfectly seasoned meat, tender and succulent, encased in a golden-brown, crispy exterior that adds an irresistible crunch. The ambiance is inviting, with a touch of Middle Eastern charm that enhances the overall dining pleasure. The staff's warmth and attentiveness elevate the experience, making you feel like an honored guest in a culinary oasis.

    I saw some good reviews at this restaurant so I decided to check it out. I enjoyed the chicken shawarma at this location and they had a variety of good toppings. As you can tell, the wrap is not overly stuffed and not very saucy so it would be easily kept to consume later on. I did found the chicken to be a little dry so maybe request that they cut fresh chicken.

  • 5/5 Shailah D. 2 years ago on Google
    The mix shawarma was delicious, it was well seasoned and tasted so good. The best I have had in Toronto. There is parking right in front of the restaurant. They also had some patio tables and chairs outside. I went around lunch time and they were busy. I highly recommend checking this place out.

    Love this place! Grew up in this area for years. Even back in the Mimicombo roller skating days so I’ve seen this location change many many times over the years. It’s nice to see a nice lil place thrive and server fresh awesome Mediterranean and middle eastern food! Absolutely delicious and the staff are friendly. Fair pricing and nice portions. Love the VW van to!! Great place for a bite on a nice summer evening at their outdoor picnic tables. Highly recommend! Cheers! Update 12-4-23 Went in today to be welcomed by the owner Captain. He made me a fresh shawarma,chicken cut fresh from the spit with that awesome pomegranate sauce! Delicious! Had to add a lil salt but that’s just me! Fantastic! Also need to mention that they keep this place so clean! Nice to see owners take pride in their business and appearance!

  • 5/5 Denez B. 1 year ago on Google
    Was shocked that a place has 4.8 rating but they deserve it. Excellent customer service, excellent food, clean & hygienic restaurant. Super cute sitting area. I tried the authentic Syrian shawarma & shawarma plate and loved it!

  • 5/5 IEatTravelWrite 1 year ago on Google
    Finally checked out a place I've been wanting to try for a while but never been to as it's a little out of my way. Needless to say, the experience was excellent and food, even better. I also like that there's a lot of options to choose from on the menu, including wraps, plates and bowls. Choose from beef to fish to chicken to falafel and more. Staff were friendly, humble and welcoming. Though parking in the lot is limited, I was easily able to find a spot. I'd like to go back to try more dishes on the menu. There's lots or side options to choose from as well. Restaurant is clean. Super was quick. Prices are affordable and portion size is generous.

  • 4/5 Miss K. 1 year ago on Google
    We needed a quick place to eat otw home and the reviews decided this was it. I really liked the way the food was separated and not piled together in slop formation. I also really liked the balance between rice and meat. It's definitely smaller portions than some places but it's balanced so it's good. I definelty think the salad portion was a bit small and could be bigger. And it wasn't super fresh but we were there end of day (8pm) so I don't want to hold that against the store. The soup was bland, I wouldn't get it again But it was definitely fresh and not processed. we will be back to try the meals again ! Probably a wrap, the pita looked fresh and delicious. The staff were also very friendly.

    When this place opened up in the community everyone was so excited. The owners have always been really nice and friendly and it is a clean and renovated shop and much nicer than the two previous businesses in this spot. I always get takeout and the portions for the platters are quite large. The lentil rice, garlic potatoes, falafel and eggplant in tomato sauce are my favourites. I’ve also gotten a too good to go order at the end of the night as well for a deal on sides. This is probably tied with Nimman for the best restaurant in the plaza.

  • 5/5 Janina T. 1 year ago on Google
    Very yummy. My partner and I were driving by and saw the cool van out front - decided to try it. Monday special was very affordable and had very large portions! Also quite flavourful. Staff were so nice. Thanks, we will be back!

  • 5/5 Alithia D. 2 years ago on Google
    I ordered 3 family platters (chicken, beef and falafel) to go, and all 3 platters were absolutely delicious. My family loved how authentic the food tasted. Also, they delivered it right to my car. The service has always been so great every time I go here. They are friendly and kind. I highly recommend you go and check out this place! It's my second visit this week :)

    Looking for delicious Middle Eastern food? @mooringeats is here for rescue. Having such authentic taste and fresh ingredients they serve shawarma, falafel, kabab, salads and more. I tried chicken shawarma, falafel plate and chicken shawarma poutine. I thoroughly enjoyed everything and it was quite flavourful. My favorite dish was their chicken shawarma it was super authentic and the taste was top notch. They also have daily special deals for $10.99. Definitely visiting them again soon!

  • 4/5 Victoria B. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice shawarma place, would not say the best but pretty decent. Just tried chicken shawarma, it is very good, nicely seasoned. But should of been wrapped tighter, just my preference. Will have to explore more menu items from there. Love that they have some unique vegetarian options. Def, Worth checking out! Inside is very clean and inviting. Don't get discouraged about neighboring shabby-ness. Come and Order!

  • 5/5 Farrah A. 2 years ago on Google
    Went back here again. First time was with my brother and I had the chicken shawarma with lentil rice. This time I had the same but with basmati rice. The food was very good and filling. The place is clean and they’re usually pretty fast with the order. Would come back here again.

  • 5/5 Damien W. 2 years ago on Google
    Love this place! Great Sharwama! Hot, tasty and worth the price. If you haven't been here go now! The platters and plates taste authentic and the service is top notch. Make sure you go! My picture shows the end of the meal. Next time I will poster the before. Lol! It was so good I couldn't wait.

  • 5/5 Hadeel A. 2 years ago on Google
    Their Syrian style shawarma is so yummy, and it’s just like the original taste in Syria. I wish fries was a little bit more crunchy though. The owner is very friendly and I would differently go there again and again
