OUR STORY

"The story of Golden Shawarma is one of passion, tradition, and a dream brought to life. It all began in a cozy kitchen where my mother, a talented chef, dedicated her days to perfecting the art of Middle Eastern cuisine. Her shawarma recipe, a cherished family secret, was the highlight of every gathering, bringing together friends, family, and neighbors with its irresistible aroma and flavor.

​

Growing up, I watched my mother meticulously select spices, marinate meats, and create dishes that were more than just food—they were a celebration of our culture and heritage. Her kitchen was a place of warmth, laughter, and shared stories, where every meal was a reminder of the love and care she poured into her cooking.

​

When our family moved to Canada, we brought with us the dream of sharing these authentic flavors with our new community. We envisioned a place where people could experience the same joy and connection that my mother’s cooking always inspired. After years of planning and hard work, that dream has come to fruition with the opening of Golden Shawarma in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.

​

At Golden Shawarma, we are committed to preserving the authenticity of Middle Eastern cuisine while creating a welcoming space for everyone. Our menu, inspired by my mother’s recipes, features a variety of dishes that showcase the rich, vibrant flavors of our heritage. From succulent shawarma and tender kebabs to crispy falafel and creamy hummus, each dish is crafted with the same passion and dedication that my mother instilled in me.

​

Golden Shawarma is more than just a restaurant—it’s a place where memories are made, and traditions are honored. We invite you to join us, share in our story, and experience the warmth and hospitality that have been the heart of our family for generations. Whether you’re here for a quick bite or a leisurely meal, we hope Golden Shawarma becomes a place where you feel at home, and where every visit is a celebration of great food and togetherness."
