BaBa Gannouj Restaurant

Good, tasty food. Service is very friendly. Cons - no bathroom, no sink to wash hands. Styrofoam and plastic dishes I wish the disposable dishes were from paper!Food: 5/5

Got the veggie platter last night - soooo delicious, beautiful and super filling for 2 very hungry folk we’d already devoured a third before taking the photo - you get it even fuller than that. Love the vibes at this family-run Syrian and Lebanese place. Thank you!!!

THE. BEST. Shawerma and falafel and middle eastern food on the island. Might also be the only authentic. I’m from Jordan and I know authentic middle eastern food. We drove from nanaimo few times just to have their wraps. The owners are amazing! Super friendly and consistent with the service. They showed me how food is made and it’s all great quality and clean. 5/5 for food 5/5 variety of options vegetarian, vegan too 5/5 for service 5/5 for cleanliness 5/5 overall.

I tried the Chicken shawarma regular size $9.53 the other day. The chicken had lots of flavor and it was tender which is very important in a shawarma. The vegetables and sauce was great too. My only complaint was it was a little on the thin size compared to other regular size from the big city. Maybe I should of went for a large size. The staff there are really friendly and quick. I'll try the large next time and update my review when that happens.

The 2B on the menu is my absolute favorite. The homemade wrap, glorious garlic mayo, pickles, tomato and juicy chicken. OMG it's drool worthy! Order it if you have not tried their food. You will be loving that 2B forever. Lovely, local family run business that gives back. Great place to support. Highly recommend.

I ordered the large wrap thinking I would have 2 meals from it. But I couldn't stop eating it! Every bite was so delicious. Such perfect flavor combinations. My new addiction. Thank you for this great food!

Love the people and the food. Always delicious. So much flavour. Also love their dips. Always great to bring to a friends house etc.Recommended dishesMahanamara Dip, Muhamara

This is a must visit if you're in Campbell River. I went there on a whim two years ago, and fell in love with muhamara, a walnut and red pepper based dip which I haven't found better anywhere I've been. Their name sake dip is also delicious with just the lightest hint of smokiness that will make you wonder how you just ate a whole container. Prices are great, food is great, make sure you go here.

Went in all the way from Courtenay hoping to cure my shawarma fix after missing this cuisine after moving from Vancouver a few years ago. Sadly, I’m still waiting. I got a large chicken wrap $15 and while tasty, was a small portion size for the price and lacked freshness and vegetables. As well, the chicken wasn’t from the rotisserie spit as expected although it was cooked fresh to order on the grill. It is my preference, but I prefer the style of Shawarma wrap that is not toasted, and which you are able to add items like lettuce, pickled turnips, etc into your wrap. I was disappointed to see the veg hidden away and my ask for lettuce denied. As well, I learned the plates are simply the aforementioned wrap with salad and hummus, not shaved meat on rice like one might imagine a chicken shawarma plate to be. Overall, good home-cooked food but just not the restaurant I was hoping for. My quest for a good chicken shawarma wrap on the island continues…

The vegetarian platter is absolutely delicious. And looks fantastic as well. Beef shawarma is very tasty as well.
