It's been over 10 years since I tasted the delicious food at The Chick Pea's original location on 8th Ave and it's only gotten better. Their new location is great and they create wraps and platters in a fast moving assembly line so even if there is a queue of hungry people, you won't be waiting long. The people are great too always up for a bit of banter. The rice platters are a very healthy portion of food and the salads are delicious too if you're looking for a healthier option.

Nothing too special, donair sauce was pretty good but meats were lacking some flavour and charrin... read more Pretty decent shawarma as far as the nearby area is concerned.
