Big Bite Donair in Lynn Valley

I enjoy a donair every once in a while, so I thought I would try it for our Friday night take out this past Friday, January 16th/2015.

I pulled into the parking lot in Lynn Valley, at 
1252 Lynn Valley Road

North VancouverBC V7J

There was ample parking even though it was a busy Friday evening, around 6:15pm.

I went inside and found the place empty, even though the other establishments around it all had plenty of patrons.

I ordered a beef and a chicken donair. The chicken was scooped out of a ready to go bin in the counter. The beef came sliced off the slab.

The add ons included garlic sauce, hummous, tzatziki, onions, tomatoes, lettuce, olives, and more. I chose a few and made a point of asking for tzatziki as I love the stuff!

I got home with my purchase ringing in just under $16. I was pleased at the pleasant and quick service.

When I got home, I bit into my donair and was not very impressed with the flavours; neither was my dining companion with his beef version.

The meat was not fresh, and it was kind of soggy in some kind of curry sauce. The donair had not much flavour and just tasted very "blah". I have had a few donairs in my time, and I have to highly recommend Yummy Donair at: 942 16th St W, North Vancouver. Their donairs are very fresh and extremely tasty.

As I live nearby, I wanted to give Big Bite Donair a try. Well, I tried, and I will not return. Too bad as it could be so much better!

Pros:
Easy parking, friendly and fast service

Cons:

Donair doesn't taste very good :(
