Avesta Restaurant

Incredibly delicious and unique pizzas made with soft Naan.
Nice dine in or take out menu.
Great halal options.
Traditional sit and lean special seating area by request.
Prices are fair but leaning to higher than average.
Hard to find parking even just for pickup.

I tried this place yesterday and it was really good. People who work there were respectful and food was amazing.

First-time order experience was excellent; they exhibited professionalism and kindness. The pizza was fantastic, especially with the custom choice of all mushrooms.

Ordered the chicken shawarma plate as well as a Kebab and cream pizza. Both are great. Chicken is tender and rice is flavourful. Pizza dough is great and toppings are very tasteful with great quality of cheese. Had an espresso as well which was fantastic and did not expect it to be that good. Overall would recommend to anyone wanting to try a nice restaurant with great tasting food

Very clean &cozy with beautiful Kurdish decoration. Emad &his wife are super nice. The food is fresh yummy with reasonable price. Definitely suggest it.

Attended for a work dinner and we were not disappointed. The food was amazing, and the service even better. We had 25 and we all had a great time and meal. Highly recommend.

I live 1km away and I had no idea I was missing out on such a GEM! The kabab pizza idea is GENIUS AND DELICIOUS. They have to start a franchise because this is disservice not to let others enjoy these pizzas

Loved this place! The food was well prepared and tasted great, and the service was amazing. Everything was efficiently done. Would definitely visit this place again and recommend others to try it too, you wont be disappointed!:)

Very nice place to spend tine with friends! Their pizza and grills are the best in town.i always experience great service there.

Very nice place with nice food. Price seemed sort of higher compared to the similar setting restaurants in the vicinity. However, food was top notch.

Amazing customer service and delicious Pizza was given complimentary water & dates to open our fast, kebab plate was just okay

An authentic Kurdish food restaurant. Go and enjoy the taste of subtle Mediterranean food.ask them questions because they would know what to choose

Delicious food, great atmosphere right off the highway price was way way better than competitors
Picky eater kids loved it must go place for kurdish and Mediterranean foods we had kebab plater with salad and bread was delicious and shawrma kids loved the Pizza.

Keep up with the good work
sure we will be back very soon

I'll be honest this is probably one of the best pizzas I have had, ordered the cremini mushroom pizza. The pizza dough was something I have never tasted, not a traditional Italian style but even bettter. It was like eating a garlic naan but with pizza toppings. Truly superb and will definately order again!

I loved my shawarma pizza. The first time was amazing. Second time. So soggy and Greasy so disappointed. We got hummus and they didn't give us the pita to eat with it that we asked for. I will give one more try because the chicken is really good.

The food was very delicious and affordable. Good service and the place is amazing! A must visit!

This place is great. I usually do take out all the time and the food is awesome. I love their fattoush. Big onion pieces, mint, pita chip, tomatoes, all fresh. Chicken shawarma and rice is very unique and stands out from other shawarmas. I had tried the leemo pizza, beef kebab pizza and the chicken shawarma pizza. They are all good but I’d say I like my pizza a little more crispy than gummy, as it is close to a napoletane style pizza, but still is tasty enough for me to keep ordering it. I brought like 8 of my buddy’s there one night and we ate inside. Food and service was great.
I go around the GTA and I try all the middle eastern cuisine as I can find, and I can say that Avesta is one of the greats. Thanks guys

Obsessed with this place shawarma pizza is incredible at this restaurant one of the best pizzas i’ve ever tasted Now I order pizza every third day

Everything was good, one recommendation is that you do more advertising so people knows this restaurant is exist, specifically on TikTok and FB.

Average food in general
Beef kabab is way less than average

I gave them 3 stars for their bread and kibbeh

Service was really good and the waiters very nice I recommend everybody to go there and try the food

Loved this place! The Shawarma plate was delicious, the complementary soup was very much appreciated, and the customer service was beyond our expectation. We went on a long weekend Saturday with no one else in the restaurant, but the food was prepared fresh.

We will definitely go there again when we visit Hamilton next time.

Excellent place. I would recommend it to everyone. Just give this place a try, you won't regret it.

I had a great first experience at Avesta. The servers were so nice and kind. The food comes out so nice and fresh and its’s so delicious and tons of flavour. Definitely will be coming back more often, I love this place 10/10 for me!

It's awesome. Great service and good stuff.food is very delicious
Thanks for you so much ️

Delicious pizza and great service, always get something when I'm shooting some pool downstairs!

I had one bite and felt the need to rate this meal. The kabob plate.oh my gosh it's so good! I can't emphasize this enough! The meat is so tender and the garlic sauce is to die for! The Naan is so fresh and soft. Definitely the best place. I don't think I want to go anywhere else. Plus takeout presentation was on point!

I’ve ordered from this place a few times and they’ve got one of the best shawarma pizzas around. The dough is always beautifully fresh and fluffy and the thin slices don’t feel too heavy if you have a few. Keep doing exactly what you’re doing, it’s working ️

Amazing experience. Food was great but what made the experience was the host. They were extremely kind and attentive would recommend!

I loved the place its a hidden gem.food was great, we tried different pizzas they were all good, the kabab plate was really authentic iraqi kurdish kabab
Service was great, will definitely come back.

Best halal pizza, made perfectly and the workers are very friendly! I love the decorations as well. Will be back

This place is just amazing. My friends and I had just left the escape room and wanted a place to eat and conveniently this place was next to it. We went in not knowing the menu or anything about it but were very glad we decided to go. The restaurant itself is so beautiful as they have a bunch of Kurdish decor placed around the restaurant, along with their music. We got to sit in this really cool seating area that gives you a real Kurdish experience. The staff was so fun, friendly and welcoming. They really make you feel at home there. The food was so good and the portions were huge for such a fair price. My friends and I loved it and will definitely be going back again. I recommend people to dine in for the experience, but the food is great to just order too.

Chicken shawarma pizza was fantastic and flavourful.

Hummus was very creamy and good consistency. Slightly underseasoned (needs a pinch of salt maybe), but still very good.

Naan bread was HUGE!

Very clean inside the restaurant.

Service was great.

Prices are fair.

Highly recommend!

I have been coming here for quite awhile, and the food has always been amazing. I definitely recommend the Tikka Wrap because it's really a simple wrap and has loads of flavour. The staff is also really friendly which makes the whole place very lively. The restaurant itself is very beautiful and very clean.

This place has mouth watering pizzas. We chose an unlimited toppings pizza which came at a reasonable price. As we didn't know which toppings to select from, the staff were kind enough to suggest some and it turned out to be the best pizza I have had till date. Would love to go back there again. The only limitation was that there was no size option for the pizza.

This is a bit of a hidden jewel. Inside very nice and very clean. The food is great and highly recommend it. Pricing is very good.

Not only is the staff super friendly but the food is absolutely AMAZING! I just moved to the hammer last year and have tried several different shawarma places and discovered this place last week and it’s now hands down my favourite place! If you’re wondering what I are that was so tasty… EVERYTHING! I’ve ordered from here a few times now, the lamb shank is to die for, the pizza is out of this world, the shawarma, the rice, and omg their tanoor naan I can’t say enough good things about this place! Seriously try it!

Delicious and fresh food, great people. Clean, cozy and nice environment. Highly recommend this place.

Excellent customer service. Excellent food. Spotless clean. Great prices. Perfect location. (Special thanks to Jihan)

Always an absolute treat to enjoy a delicious meal by the sun setting on their outdoor patio. Super friendly staff and food that just melts in your mouth.

Came to Avesta for the first time today, had one of the best experiences ever, The service here is amazing and I definitely recommend it to anyone trying a new restaurant, this will definitely be a go to restaurant that you want to try!

Most amazing pizza I had well always go back and recommend friends and family friendly there always

Got a lamp shank with fries and rice. The shank was cooked really well making it super fall of the bone just how you imagine it to be, rice was great and I got garlic sauce for the fries which tasted amazing. Overall great. Gotta try their pizza next

Ordered from Uber eats for the first and got the shawarma pizza. The chicken was overcooked and dry which made me not able to finish the whole pizza. Everything else about the pizza was fine.

The quality of the food is 10/10
The customer service is 10/10
Everything is perfect.

Recieved a little pamphlet in the mail, never knew they existed. Gave them a try. Excellent food. Great pizza very Mediterranean delicious. Very fresh and delicious. Will be ordering from them again soon!

This place is amazing. Great food and awesome service. Can't wait to eat in the restaurant, it has an etno feel to it. The chicken Tikka meat is cooked to perfection. The pizza though.damn good!

Hands down the best authentic Middle Eastern food in Hamilton. I used to frequent La Luna but not since this placed has opened.

Love that they give paper based carryout and not foam.

Service 5*
Taste 5*

Highly recommend

What an amazing restaurant! The food is so good! I have lived near them for 3 years and never noticed the place until recently, what a shame! Support local and have some amazing Kurdish food! Fabulous restaurant!

Absolutely amazing pizza, truly some of the best I've ever had in Canada

The Manager was so helpful with my girlfriends food allergy, he took the time to reread the pizza sauce ingredients twice over and we could tell he was genuinely concerned for our well being. He even offered to clean the utensils / kitchen that had come in contact with anything parsley.

Our friends had shawarma & it was amazing as well, all around a great spot with an intriguing decor and lovely staff

Ordered pizzas and lamb shank plate. Pizzas were awesome. Ordered the grilled veg one and it was the best veg pizza i have had!

Lamb shank could have been a lot better so room for improvement there. Needs to be more cooked and juicy so its like fall of the bone which it wasnt.

Overall decent place to eat.

The staff were super accommodating and friendly. Service was 12/10, The food was great and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Definitely coming back to eat here.

Avesta became my new favourite restaurant great food and very friendly staff been there 3 times and will go there again and again

Lovely restaurant. Authentic Kurdish Cuisine. Do try the lambshank, buttered cookies and black tea. Superb.

Food is really good, and all the staff and owner are very hospitable, dinning there felt like visiting relatives. Really nice experience, will be back 100%!
