    We ordered pick up, everything was ready for us and the food was delicious. We really enjoyed the dip we ordered, I dont remember the name but it had pomegranate molasses in it.

    If I could give this place 100 stars I would! To begin with, the atmosphere, was amazing. It’s super clean, the tables and chairs are beautiful, and the overall view of the entrance and soft lighting greets the eye. Moving on, the service, was by far the best I’ve ever experienced in my life. The man working at the register greeted us with a warm smile, and cracked a few hilarious jokes. I very much enjoyed them aswell, especially after a long day. He was very respectful and kind, and even offered us free drinks. You can tell him and the other workers upon him were very polite and friendly, even without talking to them. Finally, the food was very delicious and pleasing. I ordered the shawarma steak wrap, and it was perfectly cooked and served. I 100% will be coming back here. Definitely worth checking out if you are looking for a cozy place, and a meal worth a million.

    Amazing food and service at Zad! Omar the owner was so hospitable to our family and he definitely hooked us up/gave us great recommendations. Everything we tried, the chicken shawarma (Zad's way), steak shawarma bowl and kids meals were all delicious, with generous portion sizes. Loved the falafel too. Don't skip out on trying all the different innovative sauces beyond your typical garlic sauce, tahini, etc. Lastly, the pistachio & chocolate mousse was perfection, definitely a must. Added bonus, the bathrooms are nicely renovated and cozy :) Please open one up in the Western suburbs and please rebrand all Pita Inns to Zads!

    This place is absolutely my top new favorite! The food quality is amazing and Omar is such a wonderful and generous guy. This is the only place I know of around here that have maintained a reasonable prices over the past few years while keeping or even improving the quality. Well done shabab 👍
