Tahini’s Restaurants has opened a new Toronto location at 890 Bloor Street West, continuing the Mediterranean fusion chain’s expansion across the Greater Toronto Area.
“Toronto continues to be a key growth market for Tahini’s, and we’re excited to expand our footprint in such a vibrant neighbourhood,” said Omar Hamam, founder and CEO of Tahini’s. “This new opening reflects the passion of our franchise partners and the strong demand for bold, globally inspired flavours in Canada’s biggest city.”
The restaurant’s menu features a mix of Mediterranean dishes and international flavours, including Korean BBQ Shawarma, Jamaican Jerk Shawarma and Habanero Chicken Shawarma. Vegetarian options such as the Greek Halloumi Bowl and Falafel Shawarma are also available. Each dish is prepared daily with house-made sauces and fresh ingredients, according to the company.
Franchise partner Mohammad Sheikh will lead the new location. Sheikh, who has a professional background in engineering and several years of community volunteer work in Markham, said his passion for food and service inspired the move into the restaurant industry.
“While I’ve spent decades building my career in engineering, food has always been close to my heart,” Sheikh said. “Opening a Tahini’s at Ossington and Bloor is a way to bring that passion to life while building connections in a neighbourhood I’m proud to serve.”
Tahini’s operates more than 70 restaurants across Canada and plans to continue its international expansion. The company said it is seeking new franchise partners and area representatives to help bring its Mediterranean fusion concept to additional communities.
