Alsham Food Market
Quality, Convenience, and Community at Al Sham Food Market
Alsham Food Market in Winnipeg is a family-owned Middle Eastern grocery store offering a wide selection of halal meats, fresh baked goods, and specialty products. Established in 2012 by Syrian immigrants Khaldoun Majani and his wife Reem, the market features a halal butcher counter with fresh lamb, beef, and turkey, as well as house-made salami, pepperoni, and sausage seasoned with their secret blend of spices. In 2021, they expanded to include a grill, stone oven, and takeaway food counter, serving items like manousheh, fatayer, kebabs, and wraps. The store also offers traditional Middle Eastern groceries, including spices, legumes, and desserts, making it a go-to destination for authentic halal products in Winnipeg.

Extremely disappointed in this place. I ordered chicken kofta kabab with fries, shish tawouk with fries, and beef kofta kabab with rice.nnFirst of all, i didn't even get my 3 drinks which was supposed to come with the orders. Secondly, paying 18.49 for a meal and only one skewer is a complete rip off in my opinion, i was under the impression it would be two skewers. Many other places normally give two skewers. I was supposed to receive tabouleh with two of my meals, instead I received this rediculous amount of tomatoes and a tiny amount of salad. Lastly, i was supposed to receive pickles with my beef kofta, i did not. This was my first time ordering and I'm really disappointed as i was looking forward to this meal. I gave one star only because the kababs and shish tawouk did have good flavour. One last thing, why bother giving hummus when pita bread is not even given?

If you haven’t tried Broasted Chicken, you have to try Alsham Food Market’s take on it! The chicken has so much flavour and I love the garlic sauce that it comes with when you get it as a meal. You can also get just the chicken without the meal. There’s a middle eastern grocery mart inside and they sell in house made sausages, pepperoni, salami and bologna! I really enjoyed the pepperoni.

Looked amazing. I liked the option for the frozen meal sections and the kebabs actually looked good. They offer fresh salads and foods. Looks great and love the grocery mixed with fresh food.
