I have ordered the meat and cheese dish several times now, and it is always fantastic. The ingredients are super fresh, the staff is friendly, and the dish is always served warm.
Food was pretty good, though my cheese pie didn 't have enough cheese. On the other hand, my friend 's meat and cheese was perfect. They have a great selection of drinks, desserts and food with reasonable prices. The staff was quiet, but friendly. I wish they had more seating and the 'cash only ' policy is definitely sketchy.
The food was incredibly fresh! It's always a popular choice for parties, and it's a hit with vegans, vegetarians, and everyone else who tries it.
The king of pies (Lebanese meat pies, that is).<br/ <br/ Great bakery with a range of meat, cheese and veggie pies. All are warmed up in their oven and served piping hot. Personal favourites include the meat/cheese and spinach/cheese versions. The zaatar has a nice spice mix but some may find it too thick/doughy.<br/ <br/ Everything is within CAD 3.50 and makes a cheap/tasty lunch paired with a bottle of juice from their vast beverage cabinet. Go adventurous and try something different (pineapple or mango juice, or a bottle of jellab with hints of date and honey).<br/ <br/ The older gent in the cashier is very chatty and helpful: feel free to ask for suggestions (if he's not too busy).<br/ All in all, a great experience and hope they open more branches (or franchises) in future.
