    As soon as I walked in this place, I had a feeling that the food was going to be delicious.  I wasn't disappointed at all.

    It's your typical Middle Eastern place with a twist.  A twist of seafood and foods from other nearby Mediterranean countries.  Nevertheless all items -- except their shawarmas and fried stuff -- are fresh off the grill.  This is what makes this place an awesome eatery.

    The menu is big and diverse, filled with traditional dishes and combos.  Its a range of food such as: shawarma, kebabs, fish, lamb chops and more.  The mains are served on their own or part of a combo.

    There's also a fresh juice bar - which I haven't tried.

    Overall, the place is well worth a visit.  If you like Middle Eastern cuisine, this will definitely be one of those place you will like to frequently visit.

    4.5 stars.

    As Steak Queen's days has ended, Damas Halal Grill House arises to take advantage of the corner location.  A location that sees plenty of TTC riders pass by as well as Van Drivers stop by for a quick take-away before continuing their work-day.

    Outside Logo shows Mediterranean but as I walk within, figuring out to walk towards the rightside next to the washroom area, I noticed majority of the Food Menu is Middle Eastern/Lebanese oriented.  Falafals, Shawarmas, Kababs, Soujuk, Chops, Tahini Salad, Tabouleh, Baba Ghanouj, Fattoush, Hummus, Lebneh, Foul, etc...

    Secondary was Express Thai Food(Viet Noodle, Thai Sour Soup, Red Curry Beef, Chinese Dumpling, Beef or Chicken Thai Sandwiches).  I'm not quite sure if this is the place most people would ask for such cultural fare.  At least not while I was dining in the quite interestingly styled interior decor.  Everything had a WOOD theme from the Tables, Chairs, Jacket Hanger to the Garbage Bin.  2 LCD meant I could either watch CP24 Steven Harper Federal Election or CNN Barack Obama Libyan Address.

    There are also elements of Greek Food and miscellaneous Burgers/Sandwiches, Fries, Sides.  Milkshakes/Fruit Cocktails, Smoothies, Juices, Teas and Coffees.  2.5'd

    Tahini Salad Shawarma($7.99)  -  Reasonably priced comes with sauces(Tahini, Green Chili, Remoulade(?)) as the Tahini Salad was made fresh from the Salad Bar slash Shawarma Toppings station.  The Chicken Shawarma was the less appealing of the entire plate as it was overcooked in my situation.  It came with a Pita Wrap as well so in essense it was a Decomposed Chicken Shawarma.

    Fresh Lemonade with Mint($2.99) helped clear my palate from bite to bite as you take your own tray of items to your selected table which means leaving Tips optional(at the register).

    This place is a dive, but a yummy one.  The former Steak Queen was an institution here in east Scarberia, but I'm so glad this mish-mash of middle-eastern/greek place is here.

    I had the traditional mixed shawarma sandwich (beef/chicken) with a side of fries, and it's as yummy as any other place, with all the fixin's.  

    My friends got a a falafel plate and a chicken shawarma plate, that had perfectly cooked rice and amazing greek and tabouli salad.  I got to take a bite of everything, and its seriously as good or better than many Mediterranean fine dinning experiences I've ever had.  Super garlic-ky and all full of flavour.

    The only reason it loses a star for me is that this is the second time i've come across some painfully slow service because people in front of us had massive orders.  They were a little panicky in the back and were very confused, but did manage to hammer out the right foods to the right people, but for "fast food" it probably took 20 minutes from getting into line and picking up our food.  They should at least tell people to sit and call out their orders.

    Other than that.. there's no better value in the GTA!
