both make good food regardless.


speaking of food code violations. like you say its the one on 14th street (the new sharwarma knight) that had them but the kensington sharwarma king also had some sort of violation. as you can see both were named sharwama king in 2006. not sure how the ownership structure has changed but the staff has certainly been there for a few years at the knight.

I was at Shawarma King in Kensington the day they opened. I was at Shawarma King on 14th SW the day they opened.

There is not one single employee who worked at S King who now works at S Knight. They are completely separate businesses. S King owner is Lebanese, S Knight owners are Iraqi and the head cook guy (the one with curly black hair) is Afghani. He also speaks fluent Russian. So I'd say I know both places better than just about anybody in Calgary aside from the owners.
