I really like the chicken shawerma they got and the home made dishes like chicken biryani andstuffed vine leaves.Also,they serve tabouleh and other tasty vegetarian food
This is my favourite comfort food when I need to warm up in the winter or even an alternative to chicken soup when getting over a cold. The owners are always so attentive to my family and their chicken shawerma is delicious!
One of the best! Though the portion was small and was on the pricier side compared to other places that I've been to.
I got the chicken shawarma plate with extra hot sauce, fattoush and rice as the sides. The chicken was very flavourful. The hot sauce was not hot at all in my opinion (actually I'd prefer it with more heat) and the creamy garlic sauce was too rich for me (it really tastes like mayo). The fattoush was great with the fried pita chips. I found it quite refreshing after the rich garlic sauce. It's... more
Love this place! The absolute best shawarma in KW, no questions asked! It's also the perfect size, isn't soaked in grease and doesn't stuff you to the point of choking. *cough* cough* a place down the street... Also unlike the place down the road, the staff here is INCREDIBLY friendly and accommodating! Absolutely LOVE their fattouche salad, definitely worth a try. All their meals, portion... more
Amazing service even more amazing food!
Gotta love they have delivery , also only shwarma place ive found that has maneesh !
Last time i ordered my food was a tad late (to no fault of S-plus , seemed to be a just eat mistake) but they decided to give me a full refund! The owner i spoke with on the phone was amazing ! So friendly ! My fav shwarma place in in KW.
My department at the University of Waterloo used Shawerma Plus to cater lunches for five days for 30 instructors. The individuals were from Saudi Arabia, so they know good Middle Eastern food when they encounter it! Without exception, they said that the lunches were superb (and I agree with them -- the entrees and the desserts were delicious).
Jawad and his staff were a pleasure to work with:...

I ordered here yesterday, forgot to leave a review.. It was very tasty, so I don't comprehend how I forgot. I got the chicken and basmati rice dinner with garlic sauce and a bit of hot sauce on top. I also got the fatoosh salad, it wasn't as authentic as a regular fatoosh salad but I enjoyed it and it even came with the crispy fries bits that I always love eating. I got baklava and a root beer... more
I have been to several Shawarma shops and have never had a more authentic and delicious experience as I had with this place. The Jawad shawarma was off the charts fantastic.. Real authentic taste , fresh ingredients and flavour profiles that will leave you craving more!!... I was then given a free taste sample of a "back home" dish with Lebanese rice with saffron, a spinach type vegetable that... more
This place is great, don't get me wrong I think that if this place existed in the burbs of the GTA it'd be a 4.5 star. But it doesn't, it exists in every close proximity to mozy's. If nothing else shawerma plus makes a shawerma that's as good as mozy's but at roughly half the size and at equivalent cost. The value proposition of this place is just off. Why would I pay $8 for a smaller shawerma... more
I have tried shawarmas from Mozy's, Al-Madina, Villa Madina, Arabesque, pretty much every shawarma place around, but Shawerma Plus is hands down the best shawarma place in KW. The Shawarma Combo gets you a shawarma, can of pop and either fries or a salad for around the same price as just a shawarma from Mozy's, to put pricing into perspective. On top of that, the shawarmas are much richer in... more
I have tried chicken shawarma from mozys and al madina - neither come even close to this place. The customer service is execellent. Try mohamara.
The defining characteristic of this restaurant for me is how the food tastes homecooked. It's hard to pinpoint, but each element of their dish is made with care. At many shawarma places, the wrap is essentially mass produced, possibly delicious and filling but with no soul. Here, the wrap is just a little bit softer, the meat just a little bit tastier with a touch more herbs and spices. The... more
Service is nice and friendly. Football is playing on a large flatscreen TV on one of the walls. Food there is good, but prices are on the high side. Had a chicken shawarma combo with drink and fries and I found the shawarma to be on the small side for $8.69 (wish I could order it by itself!). Many of the meals are in the $12 - $15 range so this place is not just for fast food.
My family took me to Shawerma Plus for my birthday and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The staff are friendly, courteous and give 150%. Everyone was gracious and offered birthday wishes. The food was fantastic and they bought me a birthday cake. This family run restaurant surpassed my expectations and I would not hesitate to recommend. Thank you from the bottom... more
I was there with my family and we were welcomed with open arms and treated like family. Food was delicious and flavourful. Will definitely go again.
A place to visit if you are around Waterloo area, the food is amazing and the staff is incredible welcoming and really take care of their business. The combinations of flavours and the excellent service deserve a come back to this place. Personally I tried the chicken shawarma place and the Turkish coffee and was great.
It's family owned and run, they make their garlic fresh, they have good pita and fresh meat. When I'm in Waterloo, I like to stop in there on days I don't mind having garlic dragon breath.
Ordered the chicken shawarma combo which comes with fries and a drink - comes to just under $10. It's a pretty filling meal and the shawarma is very tasty!
One of my biggest gripes is that they only give 1 ketchup pack which is not enough for the fries. When I asked for additional ketchup, I was still only given 1 until I asked for more... Other than that, the service is really nice and...

While in Waterloo with family and looking for a restaurant with middle eastern menu, we came to Shawerma Plus by accident. We had a great dining experience that far exceeded our expectations, from the friendly and welcoming hospitality to the excellent and delicious middle eastern food to the very reasonable prices. All the ingredients were very fresh and the food... more
Super welcoming staff. Very helpful and friendly. The food was amazing!. It was prepared from scratch and we did not wait long for our meal. The portions were quite generous and did not leave us hungry. The restaurant has an open kitchen and I was even able to watch them hand make my felafel! The prices were extremely reasonable. Overall,... more
Excellent food! The flavors are very delicate and sublime. There are also delicious vegetarian options. Service is impeccable. Lot of local authentic dishes.
Shawerma Plus is unexpected. From the outside it looks like every other fast food place. Once inside, the smiling faces of the family welcome you. The chicken shawerma is unbelievable. I could have dined on the rice alone.
The best place to have a wonderful shawarma.
Me and my husband love middle eastern food and this a place we keep coming back especially for their Shawarma
Great little family run business, very welcoming, use fresh ingredients and make the food right in front of you! I will have to get more adventurous next visit - large menu with many options! Last time I was there they had a good crowd eating in. We'll be back, this is my kind of "fast food"
It's one of the best shawarma places I have been to. it's delicious tasty and fresh. The service is amazing and the people are really nice and friendly.
We were welcomed into this clean, bright little spot by the owner and quickly seated ourselves. The menu is fresh, the portions excellent and the owner - and his extended family! - seemed genuinely happy to serve us. Nice option to substitute good-sized green salad for fries (which were average) - and the homemade vinagrette was bright and tasty. Shawermas... more
The dips are out of this world and the main dishes are so fresh and tasty every single time. The people are always really friendly and the price is not outrageous. If you are just looking for a quick meal to take out or have a eat in dinner this is the place in Waterloo.
This is not fast food Shawarma, each meal is cooked to order. Been there a couple of times, now & always have great food served up in friendly setting.
Food and Service has to be one of the BEST we ever had... The owner articulated the specials with such detail that our mouths were watering before we even placed the orders... Delicious is the only word to describe the food and service was genuine, warm and attentive... A true signature experience!!! We are from Toronto and have tons of... more
I decided to give this restaurant a try after reading the great reviews on TripAdvisor.
The food was unlike any middle eastern food I have ever eaten. The owners are warm and friendly and that added to the experience.
It's not a run of the mill Shawarma place; and it is very evident by their menu. Specials change daily and...
more
AMAZING food, terrific service. I have been here 10+ times...consistently awesome. Make sure to try something you've never had before, you'll be pleasantly surprised!
if you want the specials of the day you must go early. Everything is homemade and they only make enough for each day. We missed out on this but we had lots of appetizers that where just fantastic. We will go back for sure. It is a family business and everyone helps out, even the little 3 yr old with... more
I have tried many different items on their menu and they consistently end up being delicious.This is the best shawerma and middle-eastern food restaurant in all of kitchener-waterloo. On top of the delicious food, the owners and workers make you feel right at home.
Have been here many times and love this place. Wonderful and friendly environment, delicious foods and have different kind of meals; great attitude, and nice stuff..
Wonderful service! My fiancé isn't too bold with his food choice but was very willing to try some new things with the advice from the owners/staff at Shawerma Plus...and they definitely didn't steer us wrong! Food is amazing and very fresh. We eat pretty clean at home..after a meal at Shawerma Plus we never feel over stuffed or sluggish -... more
I liked the taste of their chicken shawarma wrap a lot. I have not tried out other items on the menu. The owners are nice and friendly.
It was a really nice place to have lunch. I had the mohammara as an appetizer, fatet makdous as an entrée and a for dessert, a coconut cookie and something that closely resembled baklava (but without nuts).
The food was really good. I found the mohammara to be a really nice appetizer. It wasn't too rich and there was some balsamic that complemented the peppers well. The fatet makdous had a...

warm hospitality, delicious food, very hygienic, best shawerma and other middle eastern dishes - not to mention the amazing fatush salad and our favourite garlic sauce!!! Keep up the good work ...best wishes Mimi and Marshall
If you are craving for fresh food, ambiance and great great welcoming VIP service then definitely you are in the right place.
Can you really name a place where chicken Shawarma is for only 4.90 bucks if i am not wrong. I don't think you can. Prices are big time affordable. Above all, food is juicy and freshly prepared and...

As a shawarma lover, i tried a lot of restaurants and finally found peace at shawarma plus! Such a great place with excellent food/service and ambience.
Shawerma Plus is a great restaurant atmosphere to enjoy great quality and delicious food! Come to Shawerma plus to enjoy a delightful meal with your friends, family or even business partner!
What I can say, visit and see. For me I like it so much. They have multi options and very tasty foods
I went to Shawerma Plus for the first time based on the reviews on TripAdvisor. I had a Falafel pita and their version of nachos. They were both good.
Also, while I was waiting for my order there was a large group being served ahead of me. So, they brought me some free appetizers while I waited. That was very...
more
This place drives me crazy. Such authentic food is out of the world. What really makes the difference in this particular restaurant is that toppings / sauces are of wide array and lots to choose from. Above of all, this place provides fresh salad and food ingredients.
I was shocked when I came to discover that everything is fresh and...
more
I had a flavorful chicken shawarma that was way beyond my expectation.
I really spend a good day dining with my family . Keep up thr good work
Tried the green salad which was fresh and prepared with great attention along with the flavorful chicken shawarma. Best food and service in Waterloo without any doubt.
The fatet makdous--small eggplants stuffed with lamb, served in a tomato broth and a yogurt sacue--is the single best thing I've ever eaten. (They make it on Wednesdays at the moment, with other specials the other days of the week. There are vegetarian specials, too.) I go a few times a week when I'm in town, and everything else they... more
The falafel is adequate by being authentic and tasty, but the toppings/salad selection is basic and lacks the variety found in other middle eastern restaurants, particuIarly Israeli ones
Delicious food, very friendly people, who are genuinely concerned about you dining experience. Great for a quick drop-in for a shawerma sandwich, or to spend a bit more time and have the daily special or other menu item. Highly recommended.
Shawerma Plus was my first stop in Kitchener-Waterloo when I returned to the area after several months abroad. The food was even more delicious than I remembered - I ordered the vegetarian daily special (Haraq Isba'o, a lentil soup with cooked greens and fried onions) and I returned the next day for a wonderful falafel sandwich stuffed with vegetables. There... more
I've been looking for a good place to eat Middle Eastern fare since being in the Emirates, and I think I have found it. But it was hard to decide what I wanted to order as they have quite a few vegetarian dishes on the menu. I settled something not on the printed menu - Musqa'a, a very hearty eggplant... more
We catered for my daughter's birthday party through Shawerma Plus who gave us competing prices, excellent food options of chicken shawarma, beef kebob, humus, yellow rice, and salads, in nice wrappings and FREE delivery. Everybody enjoyed the food and the birthday party. Perfect job !!
When u come to Waterloo , u have to visit Shawerma Plus Restaurant . I really hate eating at restaurants, but this restaurant cleaned likes your kitchen & Taste cooking likes your family cooking . There have shawerma that tastes very delicious better than shawerma yazan in Homs from Syria. :)))))
I highly recommend anybody in Waterloo or visiting Waterloo...

Have you been looking for authentic Middle Eastern food and keep stumbling upon those c@!%!y places? Well, Shawerma Plus isn't one of them.
being a good cook, I really hate eating at restaurants. I hate when restaurants make food just to empty their fridge and their customers' wallets. From the first time I ate at Shawerma plus, I fell in...

Since I have been here in Canada for 10 years , I never had such an excellent food experience like what I had here.
I tried Shawerma, Kebba, Manaqiesh were beyond excellent . I highly recommend anybody in Waterloo or visiting Waterloo DO NOT MISS THIS PLACE :):)
I have been coming here on a regular basis and tried different dishes including the shawarma, the daily special, and the mixed grills. All of these were the best I had in Canada and way better than many other Arabic restaurants I have been to.
I went to Shawerma Plus today for the first time for dinner. I had the chicken shawarma wrap. The service was excellent, the ingredients were very fresh and the chicken was seasoned perfectly. Definitely will go back very soon and try some of the other items that they have on the menu.
This place has great food and love the service always very friendly and pleasant, happy to recommend to freinds. Very reasonable pricing, always happy to come back.
The shawermas are amazing; perfect chicken, great vegteables, and the owners are the nicest and most kind people. I go there twice weekly because of the great food and great owners.
Every time I have visited I sit and eat in comfort and savor every tempting and tasty meal, the service and hospitality is overwhelming, there is great pride and care in every moment that you encounter, the food is prepared and created from within the kitchen which you can clearly observe, there is no hidden back room, all areas including... more
Lunch time for 2 old friends and we decided to try somewhere new: Shawerma Plus. We enjoyed Fattoush, a superb salad with one of the best seasonings ever, sumac. Then Chicken Shawermas. I had mine done in the "authentic style" and my friend chose regular.Both were delicious. I then decided to take home some different things for dinner and they,... more
I keep going here and try new items and I'm never disappointed. Took a friend for the first time and its her new favourite! Thats how good it is! I would recommend everyone to try it. :)
This place is by far the best all over Ontario. I have been to the place where Shawerma is originally made. The food in Shawerma Plus way exceeded my expectations especially when i had to know that owners are themselves the cook. This really made a big difference for me. It shows passion and much care that nobody else in... more
Before I write my feedback on the food, I have to admit that I received a great service by the owners and their son. They were very attentive and described to me in details the types of dishes available and gave me recommendations on what to eat. The chicken shawarma I had was perfectly done and I will be coming... more
The restaurant has a very friendly environment and the food was very delicious.
I encourage everyone to try it.
Best customer service yet. The owners try to have a conversation all the time and they always give you a big serving of food. I really like how they have a daily special so you wont get sick of just eating chicken or beef shawarma. The kabobs can be a little pricey but worth the money if you are willing to spend that much.
