Amazing Shawarma

What is Amazing Shawarma? Anchoring a bustling strip plaza at 2650 Lawrence Avenue East in Scarborough, Amazing Shawarma is an unpretentious, family-run counter carving authentic Arabian- and Iraqi-inspired spit-roasted meats. The interior is straightforward and no-frills, designed around an open hot line with a handful of casual tables suited for quick pit stops or takeout. It provides a distinctly independent, flavour-forward Scarborough alternative to mass-market franchise chains.

Amazing Shawarma Menu & What to Order The kitchen sets itself apart with rich marinades and scratch-made sauces; start with the signature Chicken Shawarma Wrap, rolled in toasted flatbread with pickles, pungent garlic spread, and creamy tahini. For a heavier meal, the Beef Shawarma Plate and Mix Plate deliver generous heaps of tender shaved meat over seasoned basmati rice with crunchy salads and crisp fries. Everything served is 100% halal-certified, vegetarians can rely on crisp, made-to-order falafel, and pairing your order with their fiery house hot sauce is essential.

Know Before You Go Service is strictly walk-in with rapid counter turnover, though peak lunch rushes and weekend dinner hours can create a steady line. Ample surface parking is available in the shared strip plaza lot, and the TTC 54 Lawrence East bus drops riders just outside. The kitchen stays open daily from 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., making it a reliable staple for late-evening Scarborough dining.
