Our signature Chicken Shawarma Platter features tender, marinated chicken seasoned with aromatic Middle Eastern spices, served with fluffy rice pilaf, crispy potato wedges, fresh salad, and creamy hummus. Topped with our house-made garlic sauce, sweet sauce, and hot sauce for the ultimate halal shawarma experience in northwest Calgary.
At Empire Shawarma, our Chicken Shawarma Platter is the dish that put us on Calgary’s food map. Every portion starts with premium chicken, carefully marinated in a blend of Middle Eastern spices and slow-roasted on a vertical spit until golden and juicy. The result is tender, flavourful shawarma meat that melts in your mouth.
The platter is generously served with aromatic rice pilaf, crispy potato wedges, a crisp garden salad, and a side of our house-made hummus. We finish every plate with a drizzle of our signature garlic sauce, sweet sauce, and a touch of hot sauce. Whether you’re a University of Calgary student grabbing lunch or a Brentwood family ordering dinner, this platter delivers authentic Middle Eastern comfort at an unbeatable value.

"Had a beef donair there. It was excellent. Their French fries were great as well. I had an Apple flavoured drink that tasted like one — so I had 2."

"Slightly pricey platters at $20, but the portion and taste is there. The shawarma I had was well seasoned, everything fresh, rice pilaf was good, and the sauce is tasty."
