The food was amazing! We ordered Fattoush Salad and it was the best I have ever had! My husband ordered the Chicken Shawarma and said it was also the best! I had the Butter Chicken with rice, which was also perfection. Large portions and perfectly spiced. We ordered through Skip the Dishes and somehow our Naan bread was not picked up. I called and the owner was so nice on the phone and sincerely wanted us to enjoy our meal. He jumped in his car and drove it to us! Amazing food and service. we will order again and again. You should try it! You will not be disappointed

The food here is always served hot and fresh. Staff are very friendly and meet all requests. Portion sizes are on the larger size. The taste can't be beaten. The fatoush salad with chicken is my go to.
Well worth the price and the visit!

You could smell the grilling in the parking lot and it definitely adds to the anticipation of what is inside. Many items mirror what is found at most middle eastern restaurants. The added options of so many Indian options was a surprise. We tried shawarma all around. We were very pleased with the quality and taste. We had asked for tabbouleh but was warned that what was currently available was not as fresh as it should be! The suggestion of fattoush instead was accepted and very appreciated. I will return because of the quality and honesty.

No matter what you order it is delicious and the portions are generous. I have gone to the restaurant and had a meal in-house a few times. The restaurant is always clean and the hosts very hospitable.
I have also ordered online for delivery to my home. Again, the quality of the food is excellent. And, I must add when ordering delivery to my home the owner will call me personally to say "this dish is not so good tonight, can I replace it for another at the same price?" I love that courtesy, especially since I know this is not a chain but a family run business. If I could give this restaurant 10 stars I would.
Thank you Alamin Charcoal Flame for offering so many Middle Eastern, Greek and Indian dishes that I love. And thank you for your great hospitality and attention to great customer service.

I order from here often. The owner really is great. The food is fresh and delicious. Chana Masala is my favourite. Naan is excellent too.

Ordered from this place when looking for Halal Pakistani food from Hamilton on our way from Niagara. First when we ordered the guy told us to call back when we were only 15 min away ( we were 30 min-away then) When 15 min away he took our order , he had such confusing accent that he couldn’t decipher the order so we went along with what he understood because we usually order more than needed to taste a lot of dishes. Sadly food was not even started when we got three because he didn’t know if we would show up. The excuse was that phone ID wasn’t shown. Well most people ask for call back number and name which he forgot to ask when taking order.
After another waste of an hour naans no doubt were excellent. Shawarma was so bland none of my kids ate it. Kafta kebab , chicken chili curry and Chana masala were neither Mediterranean nor Indian. Kafta were too dry, was so sad to throw two in garbage the next day. I’m surprised at people who call it authentic Indian taste. If an Indian cannot make Chana well it’s not authentic.
Only plus was it’s close to highway. If you’re dying of starvation on Hamilton highway it’s a good choice Otherwise never ordering here again.

We are regulars and always get the butter chicken. The sauce is both sweet, savoury and a little spicy. I highly recommend that and the falafel plate. Big portions for a good price.

I’ve had delivery from here 3x: the first in April 2017 was very late in arriving but the owner offered 15% off my next order to make up for it. The second and third times it took slightly longer than the average delivery but is worth the wait. Their chicken dinners are juicy and massive in comparison to the big chain chicken restaurants: mega flavour and value for your money. The fatoush salad was very good. The hummus and naan was my favourite. I will definitely continue to order from them when I want great value and good taste!

Received delayed take out. Pizza arrived in turkey cooking pan. The pizza was not cooked, and tasty at all. I will not be ordering or eating at this restaurant again!

I checked this place out due to the food mood I was in and it's reviews. I must have gotten a bad order because it was not that good. In fact I dumped it, not proud of that fact. I found the chicken shawarma wrap to be bland, mushy and almost tasteless. Not a fan, again though, it might've just been a bad go this time.

I'll never venture out to another restaurant when I want middle-eastern food now that I found this gem. Everything here is amazing, high quality food and generous portions.
My personal favourite (which is surprising since this isn't an Indian restaurant) is the chicken tandoori. The fact that they have an actual charcoal grill gives it that added "char" flavour missing from most restaurants.
Do not hesitate to give these guys a shot. I have a feeling you won't order from another middle-eastern restaurant ever again.

This is one of the best restaurants in Hamilton. The food is fantastic. The service is excellent. The price is very good for the quality and quantity of food. They serve a wide range of food from shawarma to steak to curry, which is all of high quality. Importantly, the food does not leave one feeling tired afterwards. There is currently some construction outside, but the restaurant is open and do not let this dissuade you from trying it.

Such great food! Never going to another shawarma place in Hamilton again - this is my new go-to!
Food is always hot and delicious, big portions and you can tell they put a lot of care into it! Tandoori is fantastic - juicy and flavorful. Falafel are addictive so make sure you order extra!
More of a takeout or delivery place as there are only a few booths inside but I've never eaten in and the food is still amazing!
