    I don't know about you guys but this place has hands down the best donairs I've ever had! I always order the beef donair and poutine and it is unreal. It's packed with juicy and flavorful meat, fresh veggies and their amazing special sauce, everything just hits right. I've never tasted anything like this before. The Owner and his staffs are always friendly and welcoming. Every visit feels like great food made by people who actually love what they’re doing. This Queen Donair is definitely my go-to spot!

    I’ve been coming to Queen Donair for a couple of months now, and their Donair Salad is always fantastic. Generous portions, plenty of sauce, and a fresh, crisp salad base. Highly recommended for anyone craving a hearty, delicious meal!

    I dropped my phone in their parking lot in the snow and called them 45 mins later to see if it was there and they went outside to look for it and they found it and told me to come pick it up and didn’t even ask for a reward! These fellas went above and beyond for me and I’ll always remember it. Thank you guys it’s very much appreciated! Next time instead of double cheese I’m paying double for Donairs lol

    Not only the best donair I have ever had great service and generous portions but the ownership and staff go above and beyond. I have been a regular customer for years and these people are kind and generous to everyone. I have personally witnessed several acts of kindness from the staff. These people work hard and are very welcoming. I no longer live in the area but quite often make the drive to enjoy the great food.
