From the charcoal grill

Every kebab, tawook skewer and chicken here goes over real charcoal. That smoky edge is what regulars keep writing about.

“If you are a fan of charcoal grills, this place would be the hidden gem of Edmonton for you.”

What guests say

“Safartas Mediterranean Restaurant has the best grilled whole chicken meal in town!”

Mohamed F., Google

“One of the best kebab restaurants I’ve tried! The meat was extremely fresh, tender, juicy, and full of flavor.”

Moud K., Google

“The tawook wrap was excellent. It was packed with chicken from end to end and much larger than what most restaurants serve.”
