Lazeez Shawarma

Lazeez Shawarma is a prominent Middle Eastern fast-casual chain with a strong presence across the Durham Region, including popular locations in Oshawa, Whitby, Ajax, and Pickering. It is best known for its signature “Lazeez on the Rocks,” a dish featuring spiced chicken or beef served over rice and drizzled with their famous house-made garlic and tahini sauces. The restaurant has carved out a niche by offering a modern, vibrant atmosphere and highly customizable spice levels, making it a favorite for both the student population at Ontario Tech and Durham College and local families. With many branches offering extended late-night hours, Lazeez has become a go-to destination in the region for consistent, flavorful Mediterranean cuisine available well into the evening.
