Highland Halal Shawarma

“ This place used to have some of the best Shawurma. Service was good. Now they are charging a $1 for extra garlic sauce on a wrap. Thats not right no other Shawurma place charges that unless you’re getting it on that side which makes sense. The owner should really start being more considerate of his customers. You are just trying to hustle that dollar at this point! ”

“ I've tried a lot of shawarma restaurants and nothing I've had compares to Highland. Any time I'm in Kitchener it's a must have. The ingredients are fresh, the service is great and my food is consistently impeccable, especially for the price. I would recommend Highland to anyone in the area, you're not going to get better value for the taste and quality. ”

“ Best Gyro In Town When they said "Best Gyro In Town" They Weren't Lying. Out of all the shawarma places I've been to and had their Gyro, they weren't as good as this place. Other place I had was very dry and tasted like crumbled burnt pieces, but this place, the meat tasted very good! Very Afforadable for 1 or 2 Gyro Wraps and Usually It Will Fill You Up. Everything tasted fresh, and glad they close at 2am. It's hard for them due to working late, but usually if I'm hanging around with friends and stumble by, I usally get 1 or 2 and it makes me happy. Highly Recommend this place as of now. ”

“ Updated Jan 19/24: I recently returned To take Owner up on offer to make things right. The food was great. The service was wonderful and I really appreciated the offer to make things right . I updated my original post to reflect this. . Thank you. I come to this restaurant every time I’m in the mood for a Shawarma wrap they make the best in my Neighborhood. In my opinion. Always very happy with my food and service until tonight. My wrap was burnt. The chicken inside was dry and way overcooked. My poutine had barely any gravy or cheese on it. The service was great as usual but I am sorely disappointed in my food this time. ”

“ I’m extremely disappointed with my experience at this store, and I feel it’s important to share. One of the staff members, who isn’t on shift but still represents the business, made racist and unprofessional comments toward me on Snapchat. They even called me a slur, and I have proof of this behavior. When I confronted them, they claimed that their brother owns the business and that nothing would happen as a result of their actions. This attitude is not only unacceptable but also reflects poorly on the business as a whole. Regardless of ownership, staff should be held accountable for their actions, and no one should be allowed to treat customers with such disrespect. I strongly urge management to take this seriously, as this kind of behavior can’t be brushed off and should never be tolerated. ”

“ I had a great experience at Highland Shawarma, and a big part of that was thanks to Mr. Rizwan. His professionalism, warm attitude, and dedication to customer service truly stood out. He was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was just right. It’s always refreshing to see someone so passionate about their work and committed to ensuring a good experience for every customer. Thank you, Mr. Rizwan, for your excellent service—keep up the great work! ”

“ Fantastic gyro combo, two gyros and two soft drinks $12.99! Very tasty, very juicy every bite tastes great especially with hot sauce added. We added all our toppings on the gyros otherwise it’s truly not worth the taste! The staff are super efficient, work well under pressure this mini restaurant which is really a dine out and pick up venue is a bustling hustling place. One must wait for their orders on peak volume times between 10-15 minutes but it’s worth the wait! I can see why they were voted gold in the records readers choice awards! Well deserved! ”
