Delicious!!! I haven't had much Turkish food, but I know delicious when I taste it. Can't go wrong with anything you order here. Large protions and great kebabs.
Don't be fooled by the average customer ratings.
I loved the lentil soup for a start and comes with the main dish kebobs. Real Turkish food donair . The food taste great and reasonable price
Lentil soup and hummus is not upto the mark extremely bad in taste and pricey for nothing. We took shish tawook and lamb doner bother were just fine. Disappointed!!
Food is good but place is dirty and the costumer service is terrible. I have been there a few times and the lady in the cashier is always rude with me but nice with people that speak her language. :(
This is an amazing find for some nice and affordable Turkish dishes. Not the best looking place to dine in but for a quick and affordable meal, i say yes to Shirin. My go-to is the $6.50 doner sandwich that comes in their freshly made bread. It is good for a meal alone. The Iskendar kabab at $16.50 was good too with thick tomato based sauce, just needed a little bit of spice/chilli for me. The... more
Tied in my book for the best shawarma sandwich in Toronto (Pita Grill in Mississauga is the other). Shirin Kebab house doesn't look like much from the outside but it offers very fresh Turkish fare, the highlight being their beef or chicken shawarma sandwich served on freshly baked Turkish bread. The bread, the meat, the fresh cut veggie toppings, and the light but satisfying sauce make this the... more
I was in the area and felt very hungry, I was about to go to the A&W inside the Petro Canada. When I saw this place across the street.
I ordered a chicken doner plate $12:99 it comes with rice and salad. And I ordered a can of ginger ale as it did not include a drink the total was about $16.

Been here a few times and the food was good. But the last visit turned us off. First, we saw the lady who was dishing the food (with her bare hands) lick her fingers before taking the paper to put in the pide box. Without washing her hands, she proceeded to cut our pide and put it in the box with that finger-licked paper. Second, the lady dealing with the cash also dishes the desserts, and I... more
Before finding my new favorite Turkish place, Shirin Kebab used to be my #1! While it no longer holds that top spot for me, you should know that the food here is still GREAT!
Everything they make here is good; their Donair's are fantastic, their Pide's are fantastic, and they are still the only place I have found in Toronto that makes Pace soup (Lambs Head Soup).
Don't be turned off by the...

Tried this place with my wife and we both did not like the bland taste. The chicken doner was more a shawarma and the taste wasnt great.
HANDS DOWN THE BEST LAMB DONER I HAVE EVER HAD!! I'm a regular here by now! I want to try the pide and always plan on it but then get too tempted by the lamb doner. The kanefeh is one of the best in the city - I usually prefer a cake type but the crispy vermicelli is also good (you cannot finish this dessert on your own). Ask for Turkish tea - served for free!
Shirin Kebab House is a casual neighbourhood diner in a strip mall. The ground beef Turkish pide is a cheeseless recipe, with a thin and light crust. The veal-and-lamb doner was a tasty bundle of meat packed into a cylinder of pita. For drinks, we enjoyed the cherry and pomegranate sodas in the van. We didn't try the baklava, as I'm allergic to walnuts.
Tables and chairs are by the big window...

I really can't believe the low rating on this place. It's one of my favourite places to eat in Toronto, and by far, favourite turkish.
What to get:
Mixed pide, iskender kebab, Adana kebab. Get with Irayn!
This place is amazing only if you order one of the following:
1. Beef/Lamb doner sandvich. $6.50
(Thin sliced rotisserie beef in their homemade pita-style sandwich bread stuffed with veggies and amazing sauce)
2. The chicken shish tavuk dinner. $12
(Grilled pieces of chicken breast shish tawook, served with Turkish rice, salad and fresh made bread)
3. For dessert be sure to order their...

We went here with my family during summer and it was unbearably hot. There was no air conditioner what so ever and plus the space being very tight we were unable to enjoy our food. The customer service was poor and the server lady was a bit rude. Overall we were not happy and ate our food very fast so we could leave as soon as possible. I will never go there with my family again.
Had the spinach and cheese Pide to go, it was pretty good, and my daughter loved. Will try check them out again when I pass by.
Had my first pride here and it was excellent! It took 10-15 minutes to get it after I ordered but it was massive, and all fresh ingredients including a nice homemade dough crust. There was lots of buttery cheese on it and it came with fresh slices of tomato and onion on the side. I drank some Turkish cherry juice drink which was tart and tasty and overall consider a pride from here superior to... more
What an amazing place! Me and my girlfriend would definitely recommend this place, they had great service and delicious food.
This is a cozy Turkish restaurant which may not be professional but the food is fresh and the environment is very clean.
True, the waiting time is long (the waitress even looks shy) but looking on the positive side; it takes a while to cook the kebab medium at least. I'd rather wait and have my shawarma sliced after my order than it being sliced hours in advance and being kept in a steaming...

Great place to eat. Good service, clean and great food! My new lunch place from now on.
I would never go here again. Poor customer service. The doner had only salad and tomatoes. I ordered lahmacun and the lady said it will take 25 min to make. After 30 min she goes we forgot your ordered this ( there were only two other customers there). They didn't even bother giving an opener for the bottles and I had to get it myself, no napkins, and again I had to get them myself. So... more
This place is joke unprofessional and they don't know anything about customer service or restaurant business i order 2 beef doner to go after waiting for 20 min and then they told me there's no more beef. I will not recommend this place to anyone
I dont know what others are talking about but this place is AMAZING. I have arabic heritage and this is the closest ive had to home ever. For a treet try the lahmajoun or the SKANDAR. OMG THE SKANDAR!!!
I came here with my family for dinner once and we absolutely loved it! We didn't opt for shawarma because that can be ordered at any Middle Eastern restaurant. We wanted to try authentic Turkish food and we were not disappointed. The kebab dishes we ordered were excellent and filling. They also came with orzo and a salad on the side. The Adana and Chicken Shish kebab dinners come with a grilled... more
I was here to get a chicken shawarma, they have very slow service even though many people were working, bad customer service as well.
The food didn't taste that great or fresh.
First impression was very bad!
I went here with a friend of mine, we ordered Chicken Shawarma (with Pita bread).The price was good. but they took to much time in serving.The place was clean.Both me and my friend enjoyed the Shawarma, it was very delicious, it had good filling of Chicken.Will consider going there again.
Came here recently with a friend and we both ending up getting the chicken shawarma. Now I eat Shawarma quite often and know which ones are good and which ones are not. This was not a good one. I have never been to this before and decided to try it because it seems to have been around for a while and it looked cleaner than most places. The guy made the shawarma and gave it to me without asking... more
I went to Turkey last year because I heard it is the land of pudding. Pudding was indeed easy to find there. Now back in Toronto I've noticed all sorts of Turkish restaurants. So far this is the only one I have tried and I like it a lot. You can get lamacun there, which is thin crust wood oven pizza with minced meat on it. They also have the funny boat shaped pizzas called pide. And pudding!
We ordered here last night using JustEat.ca. It quoted a 45 delivery slot.
1.5 hours later, our order wasn't delivered. They arrived 2 hours after we placed a delivery, no call, no reason, no apology.
Fantastic Turkish food. And also kudos to the very sexy women working there!
We'd been craving shawarma, and this place fit the bill beautifully. Delicious. Only problem is that we got take-out to eat it at home, and now I want more.
I tried their Chicken Shawarma wrap. The lady made it with Lettuce and one or two small pieces of chicken, the main order taking lady asked me if I wanted sauce, did not ask me what type. The final chicken shawarma wrap came with not a speck of sauce and hardly any chicken.Very poor, especially considering being served in Canada!!
The best Turkish food in Toronto. I love their Iskender Kebab and mantı. 100% authentic, as if I was eating them in Turkey. Their adana kebab is also delicious. If you are looking for authentic Turkish food made by Turks, this is the place for you.
Great place for authentic turkish kebabs! Everything is fresh and delicious.
My personal favorite for donair plates is Donair Kebob house DT.
But for sandwiches? this place tops it off- the fresh break/donair combo is just the best thing ever- take a bite? and its a PARTY in my mouth!
I have also tried the kebab plates/iskander etc- they are good but I prefer Persian style kebab.
Their cheese or meat pies/bread? are well made and fresh as well- but I prefer the...

I went there in 2009 with 4 friends. We ordered iskender. They brought the meal from back. they didn't cut it from shawarma. Some of the beefs were cold, some of them were burned. It was one of the worst meal i've ever had. we paid around $100 with desert and never went back there.After 2 years, they did the renovation. I just wanted to give them one more shot. Me and my wife went there to eat... more
I go all the way from Mississauga to have their great taste of Doner Kebap (without kiyma (minced meat) which is very hard to find even in Turkey)with home made bread. You have to try everything since they are all great.
Not the nicest kebab place.
I went with family and ordered 3 kebabs but, they end up eating only the salads.
We have experienced better kebabs, these ones are at low 10th percentile :-(
Ever since traveling thru Europe a few years ago, I've been looking for a place that serves good doner kebab. We have some great shawarma places in Toronto but I have yet to find a place that truly satisfies my craving.
I noticed this place as I was driving past on Eglinton earlier today. Decided I'd give it a shot...so here I am, waiting for my order of Iskander Kebab. I asked what the...

This is the best kebab house in Toronto. The price is right, the pitas are house made, the plates are big and the meat is fresh. The Doner kebab is a fine mix from beef and lamb and for sure they have chicken Doner too.
