As authentic as it comes & the best in the city! We literally drive 30 minutes out of the way to go here and I’ve never been disappointed.

The Dr is sick and off his game.
Please return to the basics that got you here. Make good shawarma
. Roll it properly! And don't forget the special ingredient. Love

Hope to see the improvement next time.

I was treated with the worst customer service, the place is dirty and no sanitization. No gloves being used to prepare food. None of them had food safety handling skills. There is a guy I’ve never seen before. He has a very rude service. No customer service at all.

I've been here 6 times, so this review isn't based on one experience. First, the food is good, but it's inconsistent. Today I came, waiting 25mins to order because they were so slammed with UBER orders. I finally got to order and they rushed my food. The laffa is 3/4 the size when they're busy then if they have time to make it slow. They cut it in half if they're not busy, if they are, like today, they throw it in tin foil with half the fillings as normal. It's good food but DO NOT go here when they are busy, if you walk in and see them sweating, food all over the place, big line, come back another time.they do not operate well when busy. It's a totally different experience and food quality.

Unfriendly staff. Seemed like he would pick and choose which customers to be nice to.
Initially saw this place on a tv show. Food was nothing like what the tv show had. Found out they have since changed ownership.

For F sake, I have no idea how this place got 4 stars.
I have eaten shawarma all over Canada, Dr Kaffa is the WORST!
it is either Canadian does not have sense of good food or the comments are fake.

I had diarrhea and vomiting after eating here.

Food came with pieces of aluminum foil,
Too much gravy.
Wrap not fully done.
Fries with hair on it.
Falafel balls tastes like they were cooked with last week oil.
The manager there does not even smile, I had to ask for my fries and balls as he forgot to deliver but charge.

Place is so hot and chairs are broken.

F M, i don’t understand 4 stars.

This place worth at least -5 Stars if possible.

Takeout was delish! Super large Portions! Nice to Actually feel like you are getting Kosher Value!
07 June 2022 13:18
Delicious food. Portion size is huge especially for the laffa sandwich.
Hummus was amazing and so was the baba ganoush.
17 May 2022 21:05
Simply the BEST
The Flavors
The Freshness
The Amount of each Serving is Great
.
My only ever complaint is that there is always a line up, and if your at the end of the
Cue then your Tastebuds are Salivating in Suspense of an Incredible Meal
.
Always Super Friendly
Love this place

Ordered the shwarma in baguette, and awas amazong. Only regret not getting a Laffa as you seem to get move bang for your buck at the same price.
17 March 2022 17:24
Seeing our order getting ready while bread is being made fresh, right in front of you, is part of the experience. The food is very tasty and the staff are great. Worth a repeat.

Fantastic! Fresh food and toppings, very kind and friendly staff, amazing Laffa wraps! Come hungry and skip your diet for the day, you'll thank me. We ordered 1 laffa wrap for each of us and we both could only eat half. Took the rest to go. This is the kind of place where you pay for 1 meal and get an amount enough to save half for dinner time. The shop is very clean and there are plenty of tables to sit 4 people at each with space in the restaurant to skip a table to be able to physically distance with other patrons. I'm very glad that I was recommended Dr Laffa's, and I am eager to go back again! I recommend the chicken schnitzel!
27 August 2021 19:14
Touching there mask and money and then touching food with out changing gloves or washing hands. We did not try the food
02 July 2021 4:42
Had the chicken schnitzel plate which was battered in what seemed like falafel. Amazing the pita was the best I’ve ever had. They also threw in for free a challah bun with tomatoes and marinated and grilled aubergine (eggplant) which (and I’m a critic) was definitely in the top five eggplants I’ve ever tasted in all niches of restaurants I’ve had across Canada and the United States. Absolutely delicious; also worth a mention was the rice a nicely salted and perfectly cooked white basmati. I’ve been eyeballing this place for years and I’m glad to have finally tasted it. Wish I had went sooner. Look forward to the next thing I try at this restaurant.
07 April 2021 15:03
In all honesty, this is the ABSOLUTE VERY BEST SWARMA JOINT IN ALL OF TORONTO
HANDS DOWN THE VERY BEST
THE VERY BEST
THE VERY BEST
THE VERY BEST
THE VERY BEST
THE VERY BEST

This place has delicious food especially their sabich! I’m a meat eater but will often get the sabich because it’s so good-highly recommend! I’ve had mixed experiences getting takeout and delivery, thus the 4 starts. My favorite (but not) experience was when I ordered online a shawarma plate and asked for extra pickles and opened op my order and I literally had a pile of chicken and a HUGE pile of pickles and that was it. So yeah I’d recommend being very specific in your online order or better yet go in to order pick up. As many have mentioned try to go when they aren’t crowded-you will have a much better experience then.

One other thing to add, their laffa bread is delicious! Even if you want something small just get the laffa and save the rest for leftovers (I usually make 2 meals out of each unless I’m starving, but it’s a challenge to finish one because it’s so much food!)
28 March 2021 21:08
We are vegetarian, so we loves trying new places where there are vegetarian menus, options and selections to offer. We have been to so many places to try their falafel sandwiches. So far, Dr. Laffa's Falafel Laffa is still the best. Finger licking best!
Forgot to mention, we discovered Dr. Laffa beginning of 2017.
28 March 2021 8:02
Ordered on phone was told to go to store and pick up, got to store didn’t have any record of it. Completely unorganized and rude workers They will be my last choice from now on.
20 March 2021 22:37
Best Israeli food in the south west end! Their shawarma is bomb, and the hummus is the closest to Israeli I have found thus far!
19 February 2021 1:22
$25 for a chicken shawarma plate. Food was good and staff were great. But I think it's expensive for what you get. The Tahini was not good at all.
13 February 2021 16:44
We enjoy hanging out. Yesterday we came to this superb place which we didn’t know before. We passed a delightful evening there with exceptional dishes and a nice stuff and a talented chef. We put this fine restaurant in our list and we shall no doubt visit again soon. We highly recommend.
29 February 2020 10:02
Absolutely amazing food!
My friends who went with me loved it too and were happy that I took them to this place for shawarma.
Will certainly come here again and recommend them to others.
22 February 2020 2:35
I constantly stop purchasing some food in this spot. I love the swift customer service and well made dishes. 5 stars from me.
18 February 2020 17:13
Went today, they put tape on the menu so you cannot see the prices. When I asked why the Sabich plate went up from $14.99 to $22.99 I was told simply that price went up today.sounds like one big lie. Paid $60 for a Sabish plate, Shawarma plate and 4 falafel. I waited 25min for this and restaurant was empty.

I used to go there all the time, will never go again and wouldn't be surprised if they end up going out of business. Such a rip off. I wonder if they changed management.
14 February 2020 12:02
This place constantly delivers. They serve good dishes for affordable rates, there are no long waits even when they are loaded.
01 February 2020 0:34
Finest food, very welcoming staff, always good vibes. They charge affordable prices and the food quality is good. Highly recommended.
16 January 2020 16:07
I celebrated my graduation last night in this fine place. I am glad to say that we had a terrific evening and the restaurant was evidently one of the reasons for that outstanding gathering. The waiters contributed in a sweet style, the cuisine was delicious and my guests were so overjoyed. We shall absolutely return for more celebrations. Thank you very much.

Best shawarma laffa.hands down. Every bite is heaven. You'll remember this place with a wide smile.
27 December 2019 22:42
I like this place! They serve delicious meals, they have a nice menu, The cook in that spot is a real pro, I like a lot tasting all their dishes. The food is always tasty, the attitude towards the clients is efficient. I frequently visit this restaurant and I not even once was discontended. I recommend this place.

I come to this location at least once a month for a shawarma laffa sandwich. Today I was VERY disappointed and unsatisfied with the service and the result of the sandwich when I got home. I arrived at 11: 00AM as they were just opening knowing they close early on Friday. It seemed because they had just opened that the gentleman serving me was still half asleep. He asked if I would like my laffa spicy and I answered very and I get home and realize that there is no hot sauce. He asked if I wanted any sauce at the end and I had assumed that he had already put some hummus and tahini on but arrived home and the sandwich was dry and tasteless. So disappointed! Maybe the young man serving me was still half asleep or he just didn’t hear or understand what I wanted. I hope that the owner of this very successful restaurant takes this complaint very seriously. The service at the Lawrence location has declined since the owner only works in Thornhill now.
11 December 2019 5:06
Highly disappointed, not at all as good as the Clarke location. The laffa dough was raw, even after they made us a second one it was raw too. Ended up throwing the whole meal away.the tabouli was pretty much an onion salad, barely had any parsley. The only good part was the hummus.
29 November 2019 15:03
Surely a spot worth trying, the food is great and fresh, the costs are fair and it is consistently well kept there. Highly recommended.
25 November 2019 14:23
Great Mediterranean food. The Shawarma in Laffa is the best in town! Their laffa is always fresh and perfectly made. The Shawarma is cooked to perfection. The humus and other salads are wonderful. The servings are generous and the prices are reasonable. There is limited seating, and it can get very busy, but everything can be made for takeout.
18 November 2019 16:00
I had a great at this spot. We liked the extraordinary environment and the menu. The staff members were super friendly. I am happy we finally decided to try this place.
13 November 2019 7:20
Surely a spot worth visiting, the food is awesome and fresh, the rates are reasonable and it is consistently well organized here. Keep up the good work.
10 November 2019 5:02
Food was good, don't get me wrong.
However, it was poorly managed due to the fact that the staff were prioritizing Uber eats orders and the like. I was on line in person and had to wait way longer than necessary. The staff member running the order station ignored me for over five minutes fielding the mobile orders in front of me.

Good food. Terrible service.
16 October 2019 1:03
Surely a place worth visiting, the food is awesome and fresh, the prices are convenient and it is always well kept in here. Fantastic work.

Fantastic place to have food when in a rush. Their service is rapid, pricing is affordable, fantastic mood. Keep up the good work
10 October 2019 22:09
Fantastic and fresh food, I loved the vibes the place has, and the cashiers were nice. Will definitely come back again.
10 October 2019 17:50
It's usually quite good. I think I went on an off day because the salads didn't look fresh and were mixed with other food, so I didn't choose all of the toppings. They seem to be pressured into giving free food to members of the community. I will give them another chance.
04 October 2019 17:37
Great spot to eat food when in a hurry. The service is speedy, pricing is reasonable, awesome vibes. Would recommend to others
01 October 2019 16:58

We met with friends at this restaurant for dinner.my friend recommended this restaurant. Well, we were not disappointed. The staff members welcomed us with a smile and we had a great feeling. The meal was tasty. We had a great time and we will definitely return to this restaurant. We recommend this place to all.
07 September 2019 11:12
No frills middle-eastern kosher food with awesome house made flat bread (the eponymous "Laffa"). Shawarma and falafel sandwiches delicious and generously sized (share them).

Hummous with fried eggplant will show you what you're missing with supermarket Hummous.

Some seats for eating in, closed on sabbath and Jewish holidays.
17 July 2019 16:29
Used to be great but they seem to have lost the plot and our custom. Food was mediocre and service apalling. Never again.
01 June 2019 1:02
Shawarma laffa was delicious. The ordering process was a bit chaotic though. Place was a bit overcrowded. Which I took for a good side.
28 April 2019 15:49
Second time here in the last month. We ordered the same thing as last time, which is a Shawarma plate, Shawarma in a pita, and Shawarma in a Laffa. Interestingly enough, the amount of Shawarma we got this time was half of what they gave us last time. Different person working the counter. Food tastes awesome still, just less of it this time.
11 April 2019 16:41
Nice food and super friendly workers, full of smile, nice to everybody.that makes the food taste more delicious.go see them!
22 March 2019 15:10
Tiny protein portions. Whenever I go to these types of shawarma places they overload the sandwich with chicken or beef. They don't even have a proper garlic sauce to go with it. Garlic sauce is essential to any Shawarma. Never going here again, the only thing going for it is the laffa bread itself.
08 March 2019 16:48
Great food, great staff, the bread is made infront of you in the oven, the variety of salads is great. Portion is rwaly good to the price enjoy it.
23 February 2019 2:12
Not great at all. Laffa bread and chicken were Ok, but everything else was bad and old, especially the salad options, which were not extensive either. Cabbage missing, no lettuce and/or tomato whatsoever. Place was very very dirty as well.
17 January 2019 17:28
Simply the best laffa meal I had in ages. They give you all the toppings you want and the portion sizes of the meat is way above and beyond what you get in other establishments. A+ review for them. Alex Noudelman
