Tarek's Cafe

Great Middle Eastern food in Halifax

Tucked away in a strip mall just off the intersection of Robie and Young, Tarek’s is a North End lunchtime institution. Service is very casual: Pick your seat from the very random assortment of chairs in the sunny dining area, and they’ll call you when your food is ready. No need to choose between the beef and chicken shawarma (sandwich or plate), you can order a half-and-half here (and should). There’s also complimentary soup to sip while you wait.
