Shelby's Legendary Shawarma - Bloor West Village

After catching a late night movie at Cinema, I stopped by Shelby’s late at night to grab some food, and I was thoroughly impressed. Despite the late hour, the staff was friendly and efficient, and the service was seamless. The shawarma itself was fantastic—juicy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. It was just what I needed after a long day. A great positive is the bread for the Shawarma roll that is prepared right after your order, its fresh and baked to perfection. Great experience overall! Highly recommend if you’re craving a good shawarma, even late at night.

One of the things I love most about Shelby's is their consistency. No matter how many times I’ve visited, the food has always been fantastic. It’s rare to find a place that delivers the same great taste and quality every time, but Shelby's nails it. The staff here are another big plus—they’re always friendly, welcoming, and eager to make your experience a good one. They’re quick to help and ensure that every customer leaves satisfied.

Dear Manager, I would like to share an issue I experienced at your restaurant. While placing my order at the counter, I clearly communicated my request to your staff. However, I was given different items instead of what I had ordered. When I politely explained the situation, the staff member’s attitude was unfortunately rude and far from solution-oriented. This kind of behavior negatively impacts customer satisfaction and does not align with the quality of service I expect from your establishment. I kindly request you to review this matter and take the necessary steps to improve customer experience. I look forward to hearing back from you regarding this issue.

Ordered in the past & always enjoyed. But the last 2 times I've ordered on Uber eats I've noticed the portions have dramatically decreased. I thought the previous time was just a fluke, but to my surprise tonight there was almost no salad or rice in my shawarma bowl. Most shawarma places give a generous amount of rice as it's a low cost ingredient, atleast making it look like the bowl is full. Disappointing.

Maybe the best shawarma I've had. Friendly staff, well decorated, on a bustling street. Staff gave me one wrong item and I didn't know and had left -- she chased me into the street to tell me. Bowl, wrap, whatever it was delicious.

Not at all good shawarma i think people have forgotten what good shawarma tastes like. It doesn’t even taste close to any decent shawarma i have had in Toronto in my 25 years here. Chicken is definitely nasty! Not enough sauce or toppings very boring and bland.

I love it here, it was my first time and they were so patient explaining the menu and I really liked the fact that they have cauliflower based shawarma and that they have fresh baked bread for their wraps. Highly recommend it.
