Excellent spot if you are NOT hungry yet and happen to be craving any combination of fries, poutine, or shawarma, especially for Halal meat. They have really solid daily $10 specials (Sunday is Jerk Chicken Poutine) for a LARGE. We were there around 3 pm on a Sunday afternoon, and there was only one person waiting ahead of us in line. This is a great time to come because by 3:15, there were at least 7 or 8 people! Some had made orders in advance over the phone (or online via Uber Eats), so I'm not sure what their influx truly was - but I will say that their estimated time for us of 25 minutes was far off the mark. We waited just a hair over 36 minutes. Based on the comments made by other patrons (at the restaurant that day, but also through reviews), this timing issue seems common. Therefore, I do not recommend coming hungry. Once you get the food though, it's a fairly respectable portion. We got 2 Jerk Chicken Poutines, a Gorillas Fries, and regular Poutine (all size large), and split between four adults, it was decently filling. We're not usually fries eaters this so take this with a grain of salt (haha), but we found the meal definitely to be on the saltier end. The jerk chicken has a bit of spice but not a ton, and the meat on the gorilla fries felt similar to burger meat. (Burger meat with cheese and sauce is basically stereotypical comfort food). The regular price feels a bit steep but if your preferred meal of choice happens to be the daily special, it's hard to go wrong for $10. All in all, it's probably a true 3, but because of their daily specials, I can make the case that on particular days, it's actually a 4 (since those are evergreen daily specials from what I understand). But hey, we're rounding up to support local businesses, so let's call it a 5, okay? Just don't come hungry! My rating is based on what it would take for me to come back. LEGEND: I'll be back... 1: Only if I'm being paid to eat here (ex. work) 2: Only if a friend is treating (or ↑; being paid) 3: Only if on a promo/discount (or ↑; friend pays) 4: If it's nearby or on the way (or ↑; promo) 5: As soon as I crave this cuisine (or ↑)
