Villa Madina

Their falafels are salty and dry.
Their coleslaw has no dressing to it its just dry you need flavour. I’ve tried the chicken skewers and their potatoes not too bad. They charge a lot for your food too expensive for not so good food.
I’ve tried the Villa Madina at Square One AMAZING!
That place is a must try. Their coleslaw has moist to it, dressing is so delicious. Their potatoes are actually better and so is their chicken skewers more flavour than the ones at Yorkdale. I give Villa Madina Square One a 5 star!

I can’t believe I just paid $ 12 for salad that’s not even fresh. Can’t even eat it in fear of salmonella! KFC would have been healthier then this place!

TERRIBLE!
I agree with what has been said earlier. There’s a guy literally harassing people with his chicken samples. Once I order something, they seem to be annoyed. The girl at the tile seems to hate her life and was acting super rude, throwing napkins at me. They did not offer any sauce at the end and I had to ask for her to add some and she only did it for one box. I just got home and the beef is completely burnt and disgusting (I can post a picture if anyone is interested). I can’t believe you serve that kind of food to your customers!!! It’s embarrassing and the manager must not care about his business if he hires people like that.
PLUS: they overcharged me!!!
I decided to go to Yorkdale today just for the Lebanese food because I did remember their friendly staff and fresh food in the past. They must have changed owners and I will never ever go there again and will make sure to spread the word so no one goes there again!

I don’t mind them «harassing people with free chicken samples» lol. That is what a foodie like me calls heaven when people just come around and offer you free amazing food constantly :)
But I wasn’t there for the chicken, oh no no no. I saw the beef shawarma, or shall I say, smelled it from a mile away :) It is a rare luxury to see a fresh. succulent (i feel dirty lol)…beef shawarma grilling… glistening on that hot turning stand lol yeah this is starting to sound a little raunchy, i know! I digress…
I consider this one of the top shawarma joints atleast in North York! I have been to the Yorkdale food court a zillion times and the ingredients & meat are consistently fresh, flavorful, and well-​cooked/​prepared. Hummus — great! Tahini — yes please :) Garlic… I’m no fan but its better than half the garlic sauces I’ve tasted in middle eastern joints in Ontario/​Quebec. Go get you some beef shawarma soon! You will soon be addicted *evil laugh x 3*
BONUS: That ginormous baklava you see by the cash? Yeah that… it’s freeking delicious. Only $ 2 and some odd change which is a win in my book!

Omg, what a joke, they were constantly harassing people with free chicken samples, but I was trying to order and they couldn’t focus on providing me with my order. They didn’t offer any sauces, over charged me, and gave me a small portion for a platter. Never again… Can see why no one was eating here.

Good portion size! Meat nicely done, great variety of greens and sides.
Downside: TOO SALTY!!! Guys, you can take half of the salt content!!!

I had some of the chicken skewers with rice and the food was horrible. They over charged me and even though no one was really there, they rushed and did a sloppy job of putting my food together. … quality here has gone down since the new food court opened. ALL the sauces wrre extremely watered down.

Really tasty food and friendly service. I love to have my shawarma their specially the chicken one very tender and juicy, best libanese food I ever eat

This is easily the worst thing I’ve eaten all year.
Got a beef shawarma. First of all it was terribly made. Not sure if the bread was ancient but it was literally falling apart. And not because it was stuffed. The bread just couldn’t support the stingy contents.
There was very little meat. All I could see really was bread, bread and more bread. When it eventually collapsed I could make out some tomatoes too. This is easily the stingiest made shawarma I’ve had.
Finally service was pretty bad. They keep trying to pressure you to get the combo which I didn’t want

When I passed by this place there was a man who was offering free chicken samples. I decided to order from this place. I asked the man if there was a special and he told me that the special of the day was the chicken shawarma plate for 7.49 and that it came with chicken, rice, salad and potatoes. I told him I would get the special. The service was great until I got to the cash. I had to pay 11 dollars. I asked if it was the special and the lady turned to the manager and the manager told me no, it’s not the special. I explained that I asked for the special and he demanded that I pay. The meat was dry, was not worth my money.
This location gets an extra star than what it deserves because of the décor. Everything is nicely laid out and visible so that when you order, it’s easier for you to choose what you want. I personally thought the way the salads were presented was beautiful.

Really tasty food have no complaints. I love my share of shwarma and this rates right up there.
