Sam’s Pita & Grill

Good serving, it was empty at 530 there were no customers maybe that is why the chicken was already cold hence the deducted stars. would i eat here again? maybe if stuck in the area. seasoning was good on the chicken itself just cold a little to dry from being in the food warmer! again it was too close to closing time. i like supporting family businesses and the place was clean!

This place wins the BEST OF for Lebanese food in the area. Destroys the competition and made to order (just like a sub shop).
Quality food and friendly service. Two things that go a long way.
You’re my new Schwarma joint Sam. See you again soon friends.
Take out or eat in.

way overpriced.
They are just capitalizing on the location having no competition.
I have been sold uncooked chicken here more than once.

If overpriced crunchy break your teeth little pieces of crunchy chicken are what your looking for, look no further. Overcooked or sitting around for so long it’s translucent and runs about $ 10 for the combo. They have a nice selection of cold flavourless pastas for you to choose from. These guys must be making a killing. Schwarma was also quite smaller in size then the ones I get downtown for $ 4-​$ 6. Don’t even bother

Fantastic food, and the staff there have their act together as well. Busy time starts at noon sharp, so we always try to get there a bit early. Chicken shawarma platter is a must; pitas are good too but take your time to dine in and eat like a king or queen.

Hands down the best Chicken Schwarma I had ever tasted … Been there over 20 times and I still go there whenever I can. Keep up the good work!

After circulating this place for years in the GTA and never steeping foot inside, I finally decided to take our business lunch here today. You would think that with my addiction to shawarma, I’d have scoped this place out a lot sooner! The first thing I immediately noticed was the size of the restaurant, it’s HUGE for a shawarma joint, so getting a table is literally no prob! Also, the cleanliness of it was well kept too. As soon as the dial on the clock hit 12′ noon, the line got fairly long and customers came pouring in. I will say though that they’ve got a good organization set in place which makes the inflow of traffic work, allowing patrons to order their meals rather quick.
I ordered the chicken shawarma combo which comes with a choice of one of five side salads; I choose the tabbouleh and a drink. The shawarma was okay, tabbouleh decently refreshing.
The chicken was seasoned, but boy it was cold. I’m SURE it would have tasted A LOT better if the chicken was warmer. Most shawarma joints carve the chicken right in front of you and then add it into your pita. At Sam’s they already have the chicken sliced off from the rotating spit in a heated stainless steel buffet along with falafel and beef in others. I definitely believe this was a contributing factor to the cold chicken (among the falafel, beef, etc.); however, I can also understand that by doing this they are able to serve their patrons a lot quicker. The pita unfortunately, felt and tasted stale too. I got usual shawarma toppings: tabbouleh, tahini, hummus, pickled turnips, and of course, EXTRA garlic yogurt sauce and a drizzle of hot sauce!
Summing Up: Shawarma’s are seriously a hit-​or-​miss. Sam’s, not bad but rather a decent shawarma restaurant when in the Dixie area. 3 stars for good organization, friendly staff, and a relatively simple decently priced menu with only so many options to choose from. I’m sure to give Sam’s another shot. My quest for the next great shawarma continues!

Best pita place in all of the GTA. Been there like 30 times for lunch, was great every time.

Due to proximity to work, I’ve been here a few times, the last time I went, was probably the worst. I’ve had a hard time getting over it to go back (they had a new employee who literally fingered my food –eww). So, I’ve given up on trusting the sanitation of the place. However, the food is ok. I liked their falafel, kefta, etc. I may try
