Reviews for El Mayor Restaurant & Bakery in Windsor, ON
Had the Chicken Shawarma Plate : $19.99 Shrimp Panee: $19.99 Extra Garlic Sauce: $1.99 Prices are a bit high but inflation so... cannot complain I guess. Amazing they served free pita bread to the table. The food was actually amazing. Fried shrimp wouldhave been better with some cocktail sauce they provide ketchup as the dipping sauce. Read more
Food tastes nice and fresh, full of lively colors in their salads, the best vegan beans and other choices, full of flavor, and... everything at this restaurant is made with healthy quality ingredients. This restaurant has many healthy choices on the menu,including the use of extra virgin olive oil. I LOVE El Mayor! Read more
Pretty good quality Lebanese food! We had their shawarma plate and mixed bbq plate. The bbq plate was amazing, especially with... the garlic sauce. The shawarma plate was good, but the meat could have been juicer. The mango juice was wonderful! I will agreewith other reviews that the place is quite pricey. Read more
Really clean Really cool Staff The food is amazing if you are into Arabic food Good family people
El-Mayor was one of my favourite restaurants before the fire. I was so sorry to see them close. I heard they had reopened, but... it was during the COVID lockdown so I didn't visit them. Today was my first visit to the new location. It was a bit sad to seethat the new location was pretty "generic" in appearance - clean and spacious, but with no real hint of the Lebanese "soul" thathad been a big part of the original location's charm. Thankfully, the food was as good as I remembered and the staff had beenretained so it all felt like "family" again. I hope that, over time, some of the old world charm can be reintroduced to thisrestaurant by dressing the walls with cultural pieces, but after one visit, it's already back on my favourites list.

We had a large group and the staff was able to serve us without an issue. Food was great, love the garlic. Chicken was... perfect. Definitely recommend. Read more
I was very disappointed after having my meal from this place. It seems that it was not freshly cooked. Also they added extra... garlic so it?s full of garlic smell. I ordered two dishes and could not eat either of them. I don?t like throwing food but hadno choice. Sheer waste of money and time. Wish to have a negative rating. Read more
First of all, amazing food, ordered the chicken shawarma plate and roasted leg of lamb and they are both good. The leg of lamb... could have used more seasoning but it was roasted to perfection where the meat just fell off the bone. Three stars is purelyfor how I felt. The plate came with garlic sauce and a side of pita, and when I saw the quarter of a crunchy pita sitting on topof the chicken, I was like okay maybe that's just what the restaurant think how a side of pita should look like. So I asked toadd a side of soft pita (because I LOVE PITA), and the lady quickly brought me a basket of plastic wrapped pita that is on everytable except for mine, noted that when I arrived the restaurant we were the only table. I just can't help but think that, whatif they don't serve nor even ask if I want pita because they just assumed I won't appreciate pita, because literally every tablehas a basket of it, unless everyone happened to ask for it but I doubt it, because as I left the restaurant I noticed a tablehas water and pita on their table before their food even arrives. So yea despite the food tasting really good, the meal left mefeeling slightly bitter. Read more
