My personal favorite for donair plates is Donair Kebob house DT.
But for sandwiches? this place tops it off- the fresh break/donair combo is just the best thing ever- take a bite? and its a PARTY in my mouth!
I have also tried the kebab plates/iskander etc- they are good but I prefer Persian style kebab.
Their cheese or meat pies/bread? are well made and fresh as well- but I prefer the Lebanese with pastries/meat pies. -

Not the nicest kebab place.
I went with family and ordered 3 kebabs but, they end up eating only the salads.
We have experienced better kebabs, these ones are at low 10th percentile :-( -

Ever since traveling thru Europe a few years ago, I've been looking for a place that serves good doner kebab. We have some great shawarma places in Toronto but I have yet to find a place that truly satisfies my craving.
I noticed this place as I was driving past on Eglinton earlier today. Decided I'd give it a shot...so here I am, waiting for my order of Iskander Kebab. I asked what the difference is between this and a doner kebab (which judging from the signage is their main draw) and the guy behind the counter gave me a puzzled look and said 'the sauces'. More sauce the better for me, so I said I'd go for it. There are pictures of all the dishes on the wall but I couldn't really tell much from them other than some dishes have kebabs while others have meat shaved of 'turning thing'.
The restaurant itself is nothing to write home about...small space but clean. A good sign (I hope) is the fact that it is pretty busy and most of the people seem like locals.
Okay, my meal just arrived so it's time to chow down. Looks reeeeaaaally saucey.
....that was quick...all done. So the verdict?
Meh, ok. Under all the saucey meat was soggy pieces of bread...now it could be soggy because of my selection but regardless, I wasn't a fan of that. Huge scoop of yogurt served along side the food only added to the blandness of the meal. A little more kick is what this meal needs IMO. If you're the kind of person who likes to add ketchup to everything and have a low tolerance for spice, the iskender kebab is great...not so much for me.
Would I come back? Sure I'd give it one more chance for something different. -

This is the best kebab house in Toronto. The price is right, the pitas are house made, the plates are big and the meat is fresh. The Doner kebab is a fine mix from beef and lamb and for sure they have chicken Doner too.
