“I recently went to Kelseys on Bayfield Street and had the Beef Tenderloin & Creamy Blue Cheese Pasta and it was delicious! I can't wait to get back and have it again. I hope it becomes a permanent item on the menu and not just a limited time entree.”
“Waitress was very attentive and friendly. Our orders came so quick”
“Michael & Marion’s has been a part of all my latest milestones! 30th birthday. Wedding. 1st lunch out with my first born. Milestone anniversaries with our parents. & most recently my 40th celebration. Food and service is always top notch. I wouldn’t trust anyone else!!”
“Amazing food, great service, chill atmosphere. Highly recommend.”
“I went to Made in Mexico to celebrate the birthday of my great-niece. I had the birria tacos and really enjoyed them. The food is great, of course (I actually ordered another helping of birria tacos to bring home for a friend and shrimp tacos for tomorrow's lunch - if they last that long). However, what put this place over the top for me was the staff. Ozz in particular was outstanding. He let me practise my rusty Spanish with him and when it was time to sing to the birthday girl, he sang louder and more joyfully than everyone. He danced with her and she was all smiles. What a great atmosphere - sorry about the noise; we can be a loud family.”

“Food smelled incredible and tasted even better, fries were tasty and burger was loaded. Far too many fries for one sitting so I had some leftovers that were great in the air fryer! Lastly, the energy of the gentleman at the register was top tier. I'm pumped to go back!”

“3 generations of our family have been going there. Never once have we been disappointed. The cheese buns and onion buns are a must. definitely a 5 star. would give 10 if I could, probably much higher. There is nothing there that will disappoint especially the baked goods. I can never go there without picking up the pizza bun to take to my son. He loves them as much now as when he was a child.”
“We just moved into the area and ventured out on a walk with our kiddos to try some of the local shops and found Jake’s Bakes. Wow!! We loved everything about our first visit. Jake is so lovely and kind, and really hit it off with our kiddos. The lemonades were so refreshing and yummy. And the BAKED GOODS — don’t even get me started because they’re delicious — every single one that we tried! We have decided that we’re going to frequent Jake’s Bakes for a coffee and a baked good as a weekend treat whenever we can!”
“Best Indian Food I've had in Barrie. Ordered take out over the phone, large order. Service both over phone and in person was great, didn't catch the ladies name. Quality of ingredients was top notch. It will be my new go too, also they do not close in the late afternoon, which is why I ended up trying them out!”
“We have been a patron since 2004. This is the best Indian food restaurant in the region. Yar and Noor are the experts in the art of Indian food cooking with many years of experience and they are so friendly to all the customers. The service is great and we love the many variety of dishes. No other restaurants can compare to the unique taste of Tara cuisine. Young and old would love this place that has an upgraded decor. Try it out and see for yourself.”
“favorite ko po lomi overload nila, binabalikbalikan ko. ang babait po ng mga staff kahit mag isa lang ako, maayos parin food service nila. ❤️”

“1-Follow up on reservations for my party by the restaurant hours ahead-and seating location was as requested.Notified we had two for service that day -Catt /Makayla .2-Informed both-we were catching up our once a month chit/chat and they informed us of the menus - etc —choices were made on our part with both of them checking on our various selections and keeping things flowing all the time.-questions of changing salad dressings with our selections-just one of the changes after that a few more but never gave the suggestion to us that it was any problem.-Several times we were asked how are things going-was there any thing we did not have or do we wish to change anything that was just not what we thought we were Ordering from the menus. We said no and they said enjoy your time .We did and again we left knowing that is a place in Barrie you might wanted to add to seek and find list of where to eat in Barrie,Ontario soon.”
“I purchased chicken soup on a number of occasions for my Grandson who's 23 months. He calls the food yummy. I have eaten other food on the menu, and each time we have enjoyed it. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. This restaurant hasn't been open very long, but you should at least visit once, as you won't regret it. Some food like festival is made to order, which just goes to prove how on the ball these people are. We know that there is more than one shop. We visited Carib Dish at St. Clair Avenue West.”
“Went here for the first time tonight for a birthday dinner with friends and had a great time. The food and drinks were on point! Yes, everything was a bit pricy, but it tasted fantastic and noone had a single complaint about their food or drinks. Our server was great for being at our table almost instantly, giving us time while waiting for others to show up, and the most impressive was listening. I mentioned it was not only my birthday, but anothers the same day and one a few days ago. They ended up coming out with a birthday dessert for all of us at the end of the meal. Will absolutely be back! 👍🏼”
“This steakhouse absolutely blew me away. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like VIPs—warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about making our experience unforgettable. The service was flawless, with just the right balance of professionalism and friendliness. But the real magic? The back patio. 🌿✨ It's a serene escape—beautifully lit, spacious, and perfect for a relaxed evening under the stars. Whether you're sipping a cocktail or savoring a perfectly cooked ribeye, the ambiance elevates everything. The steaks themselves? Out of this world. Juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. You can tell they take pride in sourcing quality cuts and mastering the grill. If you're looking for a place that nails both atmosphere and culinary excellence, this is it. I’ll be dreaming about that patio and steak combo until my next visit.”
“Food was great, although serve was very slow and at times non-existent though I guess they must be short staffed. ordered $17 waffles only to see no whip cream and after hounding down a waiter was told there was none. I mean, if that's the case, fine. But don't just walk away and hope we dont notice. let us know. offer a discount or add extra fruit aside from the 2 strawberry and 5 blueberries. like do anything!”
“September 16 our party of 5 visited Bacio Trattoria for the first time. What a delight! The menu is authentic and elegant Italian. The service was attentive but not over bearing. We enjoyed a complimentary Lemoncello with the Chef/owner for the perfect end to a great evening and dinner. We'll be back!”

“Just got off the phone with a lady at Osmow's on Big Bay. I asked how they were doing and her directly....she started crying. I told her that her and all her co-workers are valued and appreciated. The people in the food industry who are still serving our needs also need our appreciation. ❤”
“We just had the breakfast at the Yonge Street Barrie location. We had the breakfast sandwich with hash brown and coffee, and I will say everything was so fresh. The egg sandwich had butter on the English muffin and the egg was fresh, the bacon was so crispy delicious, the hash brown was hot and the coffee was so good.
It is by far better than any competitors breakfast. Thank you”

“Thank you so much to Amanda and her staff at this location. I pre-ordered 400 Tim Bits for my daughter's wedding as an evening late night snack at the reception. Our order was fresh and ready to go at the arranged time. The staff was very helpful getting everything packed up for us. So kind. They all wished us the best for the day. Just genuinely good people at this location. Thank you again!”
“I came around 8 PM inside this tims and there was a long line because there was only 2 people working, but one of the works was speeding though making the best ice caps I have ever had and the other guy had the best customer service I have had at a tim hortons in a long time. I will definitely be going back to this tim hortons.”
“Great experience at this location. The coffee was fresh and perfectly made, and the food was delicious. The staff were friendly, fast, and welcoming, even during busy hours. The restaurant was clean and had a nice atmosphere to relax or grab a quick meal. Always a reliable place for coffee and snacks. Highly recommend!””
“I had a great experience with Jason. He was friendly, professional, and very attentive. While I was waiting for my order, I noticed him patiently helping an elderly customer with their order. He took the time to make sure everything was clear and that the customer was well taken care of. It was a great example of outstanding customer service. Thank you, Jason, for going above and beyond!
Employees like Jason make customers want to come back”
“Marissa and Emily were fantastic. Great service, great experience. Kids loved their dinner and couldn’t have asked for better service. It’s the people that make it great and they are the best 😁”

“It was great.
I was really impressed.
Half of the time I go out for Jerk chicken I think my own is better. I’m picky.
This was tasty, had a bite but not too much.
Goat curry was really good too.
Healthy portion sizes.
Coleslaw and rice/beans were good too.
Staff was friendly.
The only issue was that it was good I ate too much and was stuffed lol
I’ll be back!”
“Visited for the 1st time on Saturday! They had a live band which had me dancing! We ordered fish tacos and enmoladas for our main course which were absolutely delicious and came out really quick even with the 3 large parties they had. All the staff and our server were super friendly as well 😊 I tried 3 different cocktails which were all made perfectly and we stayed for dessert which we don’t normally have but the atmosphere was excellent and we were having a great time! Would highly recommend for a date night and will definitely be back soon!”
“Really good, authentic shawarma. The chicken was tender and the toppings were fresh most of the tippings made in restauran. The place gets pretty busy during lunch rush, so you might have to wait a few minutes, but the food is entirely worth it. Will be back!”
“One of our families favourite spots. Very friendly staff, clean shop and super delicious subs. I have to say though that the new Smokin Triple Stack is absolutely my new favourite. For my son, it's the Engineer. No matter what you order, you can't go wrong. It's all delicious.”
“Danny’s is the best! I love their egusi and fufu!”
“Had an awesome patio lunch for my mom’s birthday. Good food, drinks, and service. Tons of variety for the vegetarians in our group!”

“The funny thing is that I have lived in Barrie for seven years but have never gone to the Bull and Barrel Pub until today. It is an old fashioned British pub with regal decor that makes people feel comfortable as soon as they step in. I decided to get their meatball soup with their fish and chips. The soup was certainly needed as we had our first snow fall of the year. It had enough meat in it and the meatballs were bite size with just enough spice in the soup. On to the main, the fish was absolutely perfect flaky and full of flavour with just enough tartar sauce and malt vinegar (the proper way to add to bring out the flavor of the fish.the chips were prepared well a bit of crunch on the outside but fluffyon the outside. The price was very reasonable. I did want to mention the service. the young lady was polite, professional and very efficient. While it was not busy , service was very prompt. I forgot to get the sticky toffee pudding though. I will definitely be back . I hear they have an old fashioned rast beef dinner on Sunday i may have to check that out .”
“The best vibe in town! Food music & service.🩵”
“We visited Harvey's on Thursday, June 18 at around 9:30 p.m., and it was easily the best Harvey's experience we've ever had.
We ordered buffalo chicken strips, a burger, a couple of hot dogs, a poutine, and two drinks, and every single item was excellent. The chicken strips were juicy, perfectly cooked, generously coated in buffalo sauce, and absolutely delicious. The poutine was fantastic, and the burgers and hot dogs were made with care and loaded with toppings.
What really stood out was the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, helpful, and attentive. You could tell they took pride in preparing the food properly and making sure customers had a great experience.
This may have been the best fast food experience we've ever had. A huge thank you to the team working that evening. They deserve recognition for the outstanding service and food quality - it was a gentleman on the grill and a lady taking orders and topping the burgers.
Thanks again from me and my girlfriend, Christine!
P.s. Bathrooms and restaurant were immaculately clean, so refreshing and I can't believe I am this excited about a meal at Harvey's 😂”
“Loved this place, came with my family and the service was amazing . The food was to die for. And they honestly were really amazing with my kids. I know it’s hard to take your family out sometimes and sometimes you share what you all have. But how they treated us so amazing with sharing the meal with my family of 4, and we only ordered 2 meals. And the waitress was so amazing because my kids really wanted tot try the ice cream but it wasn’t in the budget… but she saw how bad they wanted it and gave it to them on the house. I’m telling you now I will be coming here a lot more.”

“People usually don't give good reviews but this place warrants it. Went for breakfast yesterday. There was only on young man working. There was at least 10 people in but he did an excellent job in serving everyone and was very polite. This young man should be praised”
“I'll be coming back! We visited Stacked this morning for brunch. Our party of 5 included one person in a wheelchair and an individual who uses a walker. Our server, Darlene, greeted us with a pleasant smile and got us seated quickly and efficiently and made us all feel welcome. Although the place was very busy, our orders were delivered to our table quickly. The food was delicious and service was exceptional! Thank You.”
“I had a great experience here! Even though I came in close to closing time, the staff was incredibly kind, welcoming, and didn’t rush anything. The food was fresh, tasty, and served with care. I truly appreciate the team for their hard work and hospitality. Thank you for going the extra mile—I’ll definitely be back!”

“Fantastic food and terrific service . We have been going here for years ! Dave and his wife and so kind !”
“We went in pretty much every Friday nights with a group of friends. The atmosphere and people working were fantastic. We continued our patronage on Sundays after playing ball, due to the service and friendly staff. Sara Lynn always dropped by to say hi and interjected her sense of humor into our relaxed conversations. I highly recommend Malones.”
“I just had my wedding reception there for a small group. The food was phenomenal, staff was exceptional and friendly. Made us felt welcomed and accompanied us with pictures. The only issue may have been with going down the stairs for the bathroom as we had elderly people, but they managed. I would recommend this place 9.5 out of 10. Looking forward to coming back here again and a huge thank you to our server Lorisa.”
“Awesome food, excellent service!”
“Scotty's has amazing food and incredible staff. One of the best restaurants in Barrie. If you are tired of the mass produced reheated menus from chain locations, you will love Scotty's.”

“Love going to ESM and seeing young families, grandparents and grandchildren, couples. Anyone and everyone feels welcome snd the menu is diverse to please so many.
I love the chicken parmigiana and substitute penne for the spaghetti, with the Arrabiata spicy tomato sauce. Caesar salad and bread sticks. I took half my entree home because it was so generous.
Delicious, Al dente pasta. Perfectly fried chicken.”

“On one visit we had pecan encrusted lamb chops, with a side of the best seasoned frites ever! May not be on the current menu, but I would recommend The North on the basis their creative presentation of their appetizers, entrees, desserts, and drinks, and the friendly servers. The atmosphere puts you at once at ease. We left the restaurant with the feeling that our experience was excellent and worth what we paid for our dining night out!”
“Had not been here for a while but wow still great. Service - Perfect. Food - Awesome (especially the shrimp w/ salt & pepper. Atmosphere - Just right for a cool sports bar. Value - Outstanding, prices are reasonable and the special daily deals are worth every penny. Thank you”

“I couldn't be more pleased. I spent time in the Yucatan (if you go, eat the carnitas there, preferably at a mom and pop shop. Cooked underground, wrapped in banana leaves, it. is. to. die. for). I used to live in San Diego. We would often hop across the border, sometimes to Tijuana and often to Ensenada, just to eat at the food carts outside. Any where the locals were, you could count on the food. It's similar here, except the Pacific Ocean is replaced with Lake Simcoe and I was eating inside the restaurant. Everything about it was excellent, brom the location to the view to the decor, the welcoming service and the food... omygawd, the food. I had a ceviche tostada that was to die for, it was so fresh and tasty. I had two carnitas tacos and an enchiladas enmolada plate. I brought most of the enchilada plate home and should have gotten more to bring home. The wonderful cook came out to ask me how I liked it after I raved to the server how yummy the ceviche was. I thanked her for the most excellent food and left a big tip. I live three hours away from Barrie, but I'll be back for sure!”
“Went for Mother’s Day. Gave free spring rolls. Server was super nice and attentive. Ordered 6 dishes for 5 people was all delicious. We all had enough food left for take home lunch the next day. I would go again.”
“Had a great experience at Pizza Hut. The pan pizza was served hot and fresh, and the quality was really good. The crust was soft and flavorful, and the overall taste was satisfying. Prices are reasonable compared to other pizza places, and the service was smooth. Overall, a good experience and a place I would visit again.”
“Ordered take out yesterday. The wings were amazing and portions were large. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the food was ready for exactly when I asked. I will definitely be back.”
“Ordered take out a few times from Daal Roti now and it hits the spot every time - absolutely delicious! Went into the restaurant to pick up the food and it was beautiful and clean inside - we will have to go for a sit down dinner next time. I had my two young energetic children with me when I was picking up the food and the staff were extremely kind and patient with them.”
“We had an awesome dinner late this afternoon at the Canadian Brewhouse in Barrie. Great environment and most notable was our waitress. Sarah was so helpful, patient, considerate, efficient and very friendly as she addressed all our squestions and laughed at our silly comments. We were 2 couples from Vaughan who now will.go out of our way to dine here in the near future and ask for Sarah to serve us. Thanks Sarah for topping off our day in Barrie!”
“went to Sakana house location at Big Bay Point with a group of 8 yesterday (Feb3), about 40 minutes into receiving our food, different individuals from our table start finding hair in the food while grabbing it straight from each platter. the first time a hair is found we mention it to the staff and just put aside the food that has a 10" hair in it. then it continues, long hairs, short hairs, black hair, brown hair, etc. each time we show the staff they take it away. after 5 times in a row we stop eating and decide we want to go. we ask to speak to the manager. no manager comes to us. a staff by the name of "Na Na" decides to say she was sorry, but everyone wears hair nets and it's busy...... we walk to the area where staff makes and preps food, not one person is wearing hair nets...... I again ask for a manager to which no one never comes. she then says she'd give us a discount on each bill for the trouble. I paying for 3, with a bill of $134 got a $10 discount for hairy food and we went elsewhere because we were still hungry at we were not there for long..... the table behind us found hair in their food as well, in their first plate. they left right away..... So If you want hairy sushi at full price, go here. I will be calling Food Safety and complaining about this location as well. 0/5 rating!!”
“love this place and we treated our daughter and her boyfriend for a birthday dinner .Janine our server is so amazing and attentive and even remembered our names! we all had a few laughs and of course the food was perfect. you can always count on Rick the chef to deliver and Janine for going out of her way to pamper us ! great time”

“Staff was nice and friendly and super helpful with questions. I got the spaghetti and meatballs. Wasn't a big fan of the side of bread that came with it as it tasted like ashes but the spaghetti was a nice portion.”
“Typical store sushi, which is convenient and reasonable quality. Unfortunately, it sits in the refrigerator after being made and never seems to have the same quality as fresh made restaurant sushi. Great when you’re in a hurry though.
Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian rolls and salads available.
Parking: Located inside Loblaws. So, lots of free parking.”
“Easily accommodated a spontaneous group of 8 this morning. We enjoyed a variety of food and drink, while he also prepared a large takeout order! Delicious food, very friendly and attentive service.”
“Can't beat Tuesday wing deal. 1.5 lbs for the price of a pound.”
“As of 28 Jan 2026, dinner for 6. Amazing!!!
Will definitely repeat this experience. The counter staff was incredibly friendly, happy and accommodating.
You should give them a try!!”
“I frequent the Queens on the regular for the live Band circuit that is there both Friday and Saturday nights starting usually at 5:30.. it’s recommended to get a reservation if you expect a table weeks in advance. The staff are great and a huge shout out to Amanda and Clair especially! Let’s talk food! They have a great menu and the food has never been disappointing instead delicious and chef worthy. There is a short break at the end of the band but then a DJ comes on both nights for dancing. For the sports people there are multiple TV’s to watch everywhere! I totally spend my money here and enjoy its ambiance! 5 stars!”
“Just ordered from here and the hotdogs and fries were delicious ?. Will definitely order again in the future when the odd hotdog craving kicks in. Recommend trying them if you are a hotdog fan.”
“chicken are soft tender and tasty everything are excellent, love it!!!!”
“Walking along Wellington Plaza, I noticed a sign in a window advertising samosas. Since I hadn’t had one in a while, I figured I’d go in and give them a try. I was surprised not to see the usual samosas sitting in a warming oven. When I ordered, the very nice person at the counter asked me to wait a few minutes. I assumed he was just going to grab some from the back. Five minutes later, he came out with samosas fresh from the fryer. If you’ve never had freshly made samosas, you have to try Honest Restaurant. The pastry was incredibly crunchy and flaky — nothing like the ones that have been sitting in a warmer for hours — and even the filling was hot all the way through.”
“Management and Staff do an amazing job and do not get the recognition they deserve. Nick it's always a pleasure to see you and I always look forward to seeing you when I pick up my orders. Everything always fresh Good portions I honestly have nothing to say except keep up the Great job”
“This looks like a family run place. Great food prices and service. I have used Dragon Wok in the south end and now i moved close to the Cundles location and still great food. My go to place for Chinese food.
Thanks”
“My wife and I have been coming here for probably 8 years now or very close to when they opened. It’s our favorite restaurant run by a family. The waitress up front works so hard, she remember what my wife and I drink every time we come in. In the back the guys are working really hard to prepare the best tasting cuts of seasoned meats.
Thank you for all your hard work and amazing food.”
“My son and I have been going to this restaurant for 10 years now. The staff are absolutely amazing. My son has Autism, and they treat him like a family member. I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant.”
“I have had the pleasure of dining at Noble frequently Every piece of sushi was delicious & fresh The very talented artisans who create the wide variety of sushi are incredible The only drawback is the washroom which doubles as a store room for cleaning items proper washrooms are needed especially during busy times Well worth the drive north Unfortunately I am now confined to a wheelchair and Noble is not accessible”
“Usually you expect the food at these type of places to be cheap and not that good but the food was amazing and the games are really fun to play and the staff was really nice”

“Personally I think Barrie Burger has the best burgers in Barrie, and have for many years. I just wish their fries were a little better, but I go with onion rings anyway, and they are excellent. The service is friendly and quick and it has that, old fashioned burger joint atmosphere. Which I like. Give Barrie Burger a try, you won't be disappointed.”
“This steakhouse absolutely blew me away. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like VIPs—warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about making our experience unforgettable. The service was flawless, with just the right balance of professionalism and friendliness. But the real magic? The back patio. 🌿✨ It's a serene escape—beautifully lit, spacious, and perfect for a relaxed evening under the stars. Whether you're sipping a cocktail or savoring a perfectly cooked ribeye, the ambiance elevates everything. The steaks themselves? Out of this world. Juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. You can tell they take pride in sourcing quality cuts and mastering the grill. If you're looking for a place that nails both atmosphere and culinary excellence, this is it. I’ll be dreaming about that patio and steak combo until my next visit.”
“The funny thing is that I have lived in Barrie for seven years but have never gone to the Bull and Barrel Pub until today. It is an old fashioned British pub with regal decor that makes people feel comfortable as soon as they step in. I decided to get their meatball soup with their fish and chips. The soup was certainly needed as we had our first snow fall of the year. It had enough meat in it and the meatballs were bite size with just enough spice in the soup. On to the main, the fish was absolutely perfect flaky and full of flavour with just enough tartar sauce and malt vinegar (the proper way to add to bring out the flavor of the fish.the chips were prepared well a bit of crunch on the outside but fluffyon the outside. The price was very reasonable. I did want to mention the service. the young lady was polite, professional and very efficient. While it was not busy , service was very prompt. I forgot to get the sticky toffee pudding though. I will definitely be back . I hear they have an old fashioned rast beef dinner on Sunday i may have to check that out .”
“Good food and good portions....undermined by the very rude and unfriendly man who serves it! No hi or goodbye and leaves you standing there for several minutes without saying a word until he completes other tasks. Actually told us to go somewhere else once because he was "busy"! What a pity.”
“Food smelled incredible and tasted even better, fries were tasty and burger was loaded. Far too many fries for one sitting so I had some leftovers that were great in the air fryer! Lastly, the energy of the gentleman at the register was top tier. I'm pumped to go back!”

“Best Indian Food I've had in Barrie. Ordered take out over the phone, large order. Service both over phone and in person was great, didn't catch the ladies name. Quality of ingredients was top notch. It will be my new go too, also they do not close in the late afternoon, which is why I ended up trying them out!”
“People usually don't give good reviews but this place warrants it. Went for breakfast yesterday. There was only on young man working. There was at least 10 people in but he did an excellent job in serving everyone and was very polite. This young man should be praised”
“Really good, authentic shawarma. The chicken was tender and the toppings were fresh most of the tippings made in restauran. The place gets pretty busy during lunch rush, so you might have to wait a few minutes, but the food is entirely worth it. Will be back!”
“Ijaz provided great customer service — friendly, respectful, and made sure the order was prepared properly. Food was fresh, portions were solid, and the overall experience at Osmow’s was really good. Appreciate the positive attitude and quick service. Definitely coming back!”

“Loved this place, came with my family and the service was amazing . The food was to die for. And they honestly were really amazing with my kids. I know it’s hard to take your family out sometimes and sometimes you share what you all have. But how they treated us so amazing with sharing the meal with my family of 4, and we only ordered 2 meals. And the waitress was so amazing because my kids really wanted tot try the ice cream but it wasn’t in the budget… but she saw how bad they wanted it and gave it to them on the house. I’m telling you now I will be coming here a lot more.”
“This sushi restaurant offers great value for money, and the food tastes excellent. The specialty rolls are a bit heavily seasoned, but they are generous in size and very satisfying.
The atmosphere was pleasant, and the staff were friendly and attentive. I will definitely visit again.”
“I had an amazing experience at -Lazeez Shawarma Halal! The owner is very kind, welcoming, and always makes customers feel appreciated. The service is fast, friendly, and professional.
The chicken shawarma is incredibly fresh, juicy, and full of flavor, and the beef is just as delicious and perfectly cooked. They also offer a great variety of halal fast food, including wraps, platters, burgers, fries, poutine, salads, and many other tasty menu items. Everything is prepared fresh and served hot.
The restaurant is clean, the staff are courteous, and the overall atmosphere is excellent. If you’re looking for delicious halal food with outstanding customer service, I highly recommend -Lazeez Shawarma Halal”
“I have tried different food here, the best I found are panipuri, dahi kebab, szechuan noodle, noodle burger. It's been for the first time we got the best service from a very friendly and sweet server named Tisha who gave the best suggestion when I was confused about a food dish. Pleased to see her quick and timely service. The ambience was great too. Loved their music Playlist. ❤”
