College Falafel makes falafel, shawarma, Halifax-style donairs and a whole lot of other Mediterranean food from scratch.

It has the best everything: donair, stuffed eggplant (which I had yesterday), balava, almond cookies, and the list goes on. Owned by the sweetest couple in the world- it's a Toronto institution!
I totally agree! The shawarma dinner is delicious, as well as the sandwich. The ingredients in all the dishes are fresh and I like the owners a lot.
these guys are my fave for sure. I rarely have people prepare food for me who care so much for their clientele.

Not only do these guys make the best chicken shwarma in the city, but they are the nicest business owners I've ever met! Whether you go in at noon on a Wednesday or 2:30am after a long Saturday night the College Falafel crew are more than happy to help you get an inexpensive and delicious meal. These guys are an absolute staple in the super awesome College/Ossington neighbourhood!
A neighbourhood treasure. Fresh, tasty falafel and shawarma. Excellent sweets too (especially the almond cookies). We've been bringing our kids here for years, and they love the food too!
sounds like none of you have ventured outside your comfort zone. they should rename this place 'college falawful.' my falafel had NO flavour, no turnips, and the tabouleh salad my gf got was TINY! and hardly worth a portion of the $3.99 i shelled out for it. ali baba's beats this place's ass. badaboom.
i've only been here once. the falafel was disgusting and the cashier couldn't properly count my change.
Sounds like "homeslizzle robizzledizzle" and "sf" haven't even been to this place. First off the falafel is simply the best, full of flavour and made on the spot while you order; they don't use turnips at all, they use pickled red cabbage (which is much better). The portions for the salads are nowhere near tiny, I have trouble even finishing them sometimes.
And if you think I'm being biased, I've been to Ali Baba's, all three that are nearby; their sandwiches are tiny and don't compare in taste to College Falafel's.
Really??
I tried this place and was VERY DISAPPOINTED.
Awful Tabouli, awful service.
For me, its worth the extra 10min walk down College to Ghazale's.
They had the most delicious sandwiches I've ever had in my life.
They are truly the best in what they do; I had a stuffed eggplant and rice pudding along with my falafel and they were amazing too!
I've been a big fan of shawarmas and falafels for a very long time and have tasted many of the best from Etobicoke to Markham. This place is by far my favourite.
I've been here many times and I'd have to say it is by far the best. The spinach pies are so good I can't get enough of them. The stuffed eggplants are so good they make my mouth water.
