My boyfriend and I eat here regularly and Vancia never disappoints! The individuals who work here are some of the nicest, wholesome, most down to earth people you’ll ever meet, and they always ensure you get what you ordered. I ordered a mixed meat platter tonight and it was delicious, same fresh quality as you get in the store. Definitely my favourite shawarma place in Edmonton. The freshest best authentic baklava too!!

I had a great experience at Vancia Donair. What really made my visit memorable was the excellent service from Michael. He was friendly, professional, and made sure everything was just right. I highly recommend their place and will definitely be coming back!

Elaine and I both had the chicken shawarma plate. Huge. The chicken was perfect with a trail of garlic sweet sauce. I don’t know what spices were used in the rice but it was fantastic. There were both turnip and wild cucumber pickles and a very nice salad along with some pita. Very perfect price. See the pic. Took half home for hubby. Some and visit this excellent place

I absolutely love this place! The food is always fresh and satisfying. I can say it's one of the best donairs I’ve had in the city. But what really makes the experience stand out is the exceptional service from Michael. He’s genuinely welcoming, friendly, and always goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. You can tell he takes pride in what he does. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

If you're in Edmonton, you need to stop by Oliver Square specifically Vancia Donair & Shawarma - hands down, it's the best poutine in the city. I love the poutine gravy and butter chicken sauce! They have a wide selection of Middle Eastern food I Highly Recommend you check them out!
