" This was my first visit to Highland Halal Shawarma, and I have some mixed feelings. The chicken shawarma was flavorful and had a nice texture, but the fries that came with my platter were overcooked — they tasted reheated. The service was quick, but it felt a bit rushed. However, the garlic sauce was to die for! I know they get busy, and I think I'll try again during a less crowded time to see if the quality improves. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was a different experience — an unexpected culinary delight! I walked into Highland Halal Shawarma with high hopes after reading reviews, and I was met with deliciousness. The lamb gyro I ordered was perfectly spiced and an absolute delight to eat. The accompanying salad was fresh, and the garlic sauce brought everything together. The cleanliness of the establishment was an added bonus. I will definitely be returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a phenomenal experience at Highland Halal Shawarma last weekend. I went with a group, and we tried various items on the menu. The chicken shawarma was juicy, and the poutine was surprisingly good! It’s not just your ordinary fries; they’ve perfected the garlic sauce atop them. The staff was pleasant and made the effort to ensure we enjoyed our meal. I'll definitely come back for more — this place deserves a solid 5! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my last experience was not as expected. I waited for quite some time for my food, and when it arrived, the shawarma was burnt on one side! They were quite busy that day, so I get that, but the quality suffered. However, I have been here multiple times before, and the food is generally very good. I think I might give them one last chance as they've been great in the past! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointing experience overall. I visited Highland Halal Shawarma after hearing the hype, but my order lacked seasoning and the chicken felt a bit tough. Also, my wrap was small for the price. Nevertheless, the ambiance was nice, and the service was polite. I might give it another try in the future, hoping for better quality as many speak highly of it. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a shawarma aficionado, I can state with confidence that Highland Halal Shawarma does not disappoint. The flavors are always bold and authentic, reminding me of real shawarma places I've visited abroad. Every time I walk in, I know I'm in for a treat with friendly service to boot. The only downside is that it can get quite busy, which is a testament to how beloved this spot is. So come prepared for a wait, but trust me — it’s worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic little spot! I went in not expecting much, but I was blown away by the quality of food. The chicken shawarma was incredibly fresh and simply delicious. The ambiance is friendly, and while small, it feels cozy. The staff seemed genuinely interested in making sure my experience was good. I can't remember ever feeling this satisfied after a meal!
