Came in here for what we thought would be a quick lunch on the go. Big mistake. These laffas are messy to eat. This is what happens when you make a wrap comprised mainly of wet ingredients(lettuce, pickles, coleslaw, purple cabbage, corn, tzatziki). Results is a soggy wrap, especially since we didn’t eat it right away. That’s not to say they weren’t delicious. With all the different ingredients and textures, each bite is bursting in flavour. The chicken was moist and well seasoned. These laffas are enormous for 10.99. Best to share one. Would probably come back but only if I was really hungry, and was sitting down to eat with a bunch of napkins on standby.

Stopped in for a quick lunch. Ordered the shawarma laffa. It was spectacular. When he is naming off the ingredients I want in the wrap he says you want fries in there too. Yes is always the answer! Was pure bliss! Stop in hungry, leave happy! Service 10⁄10 Ambience 8⁄10 but a kosher 8! Experience 9.5 Eat til you feel the heat! Enjoy

I grew up near here and now live in another province. Each time I come to Toronto I eat there with my son or my friend. The food is amazing but each time we order two laffas, always the laffa, don’t bother with the pita, we regret it because it is so much food, one is enough for two normal people. To address the service, it is fine. I like the people behind the counter they have a good sense of humour and deliver on time.

I love this place! The laffa bread is baked fresh and the shwarma is huge and delicious. Enough for two people, really. Definitely highly authentic. I would highly recommend giving this gem a try.

Place is great! Laffas are made on the spot. Everything is very fresh. The wraps are very big so they are something you could possibly share.

First time visitor, and won’t be the last time. This place is authentic as can be, a good portion of those walking in were wearing kippahs. I’ve had many a shawarma in my day, but nothing like this. What I ended up with was a roll so huge, a lady asked me if I was going to eat the whole thing. Flavours, textures, and a great wrap to boot… I was in Laffa heaven. I was trying to thank him, and my mouth was so full, all I could do was give him the A-OK and thumbs up signs. He laughed and patted me on the shoulder. I’ll be back, Doctor!

I have not been recently but a few times in the last few months. I do live nearby. Had the falafel laffa and chicken shawarma laffa. Unlike most kosher places I have been to, the food in this shop is wonderful and full of flavour. It knocks down most halal places in the quality department. Much better choice of toppings! Corn? Carrot? Yes, sir! The food here is so delicious that after one bite, you dtart hearing Barbra Streisand sing Jerusalem of Gold! That’s how good it is. I will definitely… goy back!!!

The laffa was too thin so the sandwich kept falling apart. Service wise the place is great but food wise it is ok meaning that I will not go out of my way to return.

This place is great! One Chicken Shawarma Laffa is big enough to feed two people! There is so much going on in the Shawarma that I enjoyed every bite. You can ask to get some chips in your shawarma as well. That extra crunch is always good. Their roasted eggplant is just cooked right. I seriously enjoyed this shawarma, and this place is easily my favourite shawarma place in Toronto. AND the shawarma was stuffed with Chicken, which was cooked very well. It was moist and flavourful. It might seem a bit pricey(10.99 for a Chicken Shawarma Laffa) but it is very hard to finish ½ of one. Even if you are really hungry, I would say finishing one would be very hard as well!

If you want authentically Israeli food, this is the place! Very busy but fast and efficient service as well. I had the falafel laffa which was amazing! Real laffa with many toppings to choose from. Also had the shawarma hummus which was delicious. Definitely going back!

OK, more of a 4.5 star review than a 5 star but here goes… I’ve only had the laffa shawarma here but it’s great. I have a big appetite but there is no way I can finish a whole one — it’s a little pricier than your typical shawarma. Tasty toppings, juicy meat, great sauces(you will want to freshen your breath after though)… however the laffa bread is super. Great texture to the laffa bread makes a huge difference.

Let’s be serious, you will find the best shwarma in Israel but anything close to that would be here! Not to mention the fresh made laffa. Highly recommended! If you can’t eat alot 1 laffa is good to share :)

No, seriously, where did my review and photos go? Pretty sure I didn’t dream that I wrote a review and posted photos only to disappear? Very strange indeed. I like the sabich plate. Love the laffas. The shawarmas are enormous.

I went to Dr Laffas on Bathurst to pick up lunch today. Go f one falafel and one chicken schawarma in a laffa wrap. I got most of the condiments in it. F hey are extremely large. It cost about $ 20 for both of them. You need to eat them quickly because they fall apart when you get to the bottom. I shared t with my friend so we tasted both. They were very good. Maybe not the best i have ever had but a very filling lunch. I couldnt finish it all.

The falafel laffa makes me think being a vegetarian is a total OKAY. The salad you can put in are all amazingly seasoned and fresh. The laffa has the perfect balance of chewiness and softness. The falafel is the best thing that has happened to chickpeas. Portion is so big that my boyfriend and i halved it and still left very satisfied. The service is very good as well, the owner(?) seems to know everyone else’s order as they are probably regulars. one star off for it being a tad overly salty.

If you want kosher Shwarma, this is still the best in the city. My father in law comes all the way from Ottawa just to eat some ;) I just wish there was a little less cilantro! The only complaint is it’s always busy, but I guess that is good for business. I would recommend for a quick and easy bite on the go!

This place used to be pretty good. Over rated but a decent falafel. The last couple of times I went, the falafel was stale and not flavourful. The toppings were tasteless, and the hot sauce anemic. The only selling point is the great laffa bread, and very attractive cashier.

Stay away! These guys are thieves! Purchased $ 150 worth of gift cards and they refused to accept it. And then the lovely owner called me cheap. Not surprised they wouldn’t take the gift cards — they already have the money. Nothing in it for him to accept it. Stay far away. The food in the south location is far below the quality of the north location. STAYAWAY!
