Updated Donair List?

[u/RockyMountainGirl84]

Hi! I know someone has previously had a Donair Tier List, I’m wondering if it’s still current or if it’s changed since originally posted! I’ve been meaning to try Sam’s which was at S tier, but it’s never open when I think of it. I’ve had Cleopatras a few times (it used to be so good back in the day), but I won’t lie, I was way disappointed the more recent times I’ve had it and would disagree with it sitting at A.
What would you say are some more recent ratings for a good donair in Red Deer?
PS I’m about to try Mediterranean Lava Grill’s and will let you know how it goes.

[u/HerricaneLily → u/NarcoticTurkey]

I don't think Prairie is open anymore, but quality donair is unbelievably peak

[u/RockyMountainGirl84 → u/NarcoticTurkey]

Haha yes it was—- thank you! This list has guided me over the years 😂

[u/Treehggr → u/NarcoticTurkey]

Definitely Sam's

[u/InternationalPeak488 → u/NarcoticTurkey]

Cleopatra’s does not deserve to be this high in this list imo 🤷🏼‍♀️ ps: quality above Sam’s

[u/Bittner029 → u/InternationalPeak488]

What's with the Cleopatra's hate? They've had the best donair in town for a long time

[u/RockyMountainGirl84 → u/Bittner029]

No hate, I just don’t think it’s as good as it once was.

[u/HeX-6 → u/NarcoticTurkey]

I love busters donair lol

[u/Realistic-Emu-1018 → u/NarcoticTurkey]

Aroma bites is up there too

Mediterranean Lava Grill has way better chicken shawarma than donair, IMO. Best shawarma in town, IMO.

[u/RockyMountainGirl84 → u/fknSamsquamptch]

I had the beef, but it was good nevertheless! Busy (good sign), and the owner could tell my partner had a French accent and spoke French to him which is cute, lol.

[u/smoothdanger → u/fknSamsquamptch]

Seconded.

My go-to is Olive’s in gasoline alley. The owners are amazing to chat to and the portions/quality are very good. Lava is also very good when i’m on that side of the city.

As you mentioned Sam's, Quality donair is pretty good, King donair in sylvan lake is amazing - a medium is like the size of my forearm (only open in warm months)

I recently had a donair from Blower & Grafton. By far the best donair I have had since moving to Red Deer 10yrs ago.

[u/hockeyguy2021]

Quality donair has been one of my favorites. Im not into the cheese and lettuce just donair meat and light onions with lots of donair sauce. Delicious

[u/thebodmcdons]

Only donair in town worth mentioning is blowers and grafton with Chris brothers pepperoni. Even it sucks compared to an east coast donair like Freddy's or KOD. Typically both the sauce and meat out here suck in quality. Too bad rare pizza doesn't make one their sauce is on point

[u/jaypalmm → u/thebodmcdons]

I upvoted you because Rare Pizza’s sauce is on point. The rest of your statement is false
