Damaskino Shawarma

Damaskino Shawarma has quickly become Vancouver's go-to destination for authentic Syrian cuisine, with diners celebrating it as the most authentic shawarma in the city. Patrons rave about perfectly seasoned, tender meats—both chicken and beef shawarma receive glowing praise—paired with house-made toum and fresh ingredients that transport them straight to the Middle East. The welcoming hospitality from owners Anas and his team creates a cozy, family-run atmosphere, while generous portions and complimentary touches like lentil soup and dates enhance the experience. A few note that prices can feel high for smaller wraps, but most agree it's a worthy trade-off for such exceptional quality. For those seeking genuine Syrian flavors in Vancouver, Damaskino delivers an unforgettable culinary journey.
