Almira's Mediterranean Grill

I 'm a local, and it 's definitely on my go-to list if we are downtown for the evening or looking for very satisfying pick-up take-home fare. The restaurant has limited seating, and is counter-service style, but turns over quickly if you do decide to stay. The food quality is very good, sides (salads, grape leaf rolls, etc) are flavourful. However, even in times we have stayed and eaten at the restaurant, I find myself thinking that the donair or Shawarma or falafel could be a few degrees warmer and just might bring out a little more flavour, and push this place to a 4-star rating in stead of a 3-star best Mediterranean joint we have in town rating I have given it.

Just found this place the other day and decided to give it a try tonight. It was awesome food. We had donairs, chick bean salad, donair poutine and grape leaf rolls. It was so very good. Will be my go to place when i eat out. The staff are so friendly and make you feel right at home. Loved it here.

I have eaten here often and keep going back. We are treated very well by the owners and staff. They go out of their way to add a personal touch. I eat at all the good Shawarma places in Toronto and New York. Almiras is just as good. Great value for the quality as well.

I'm local and this is the best fast food place in town. If shawarma is your thing it's definitely worth a try. Only place close is the Falafel King on Stephens Ave and I'm not driving downtown for Shwarma. The food is always fresh. Service always friendly.

It's ok but it's not near as good as Jimmy's A&A. Will make the drive instead of returning. I guess I just got spoiled living out east. I just felt maybe everything was not fresh and pretty dry.
