Amir draws mixed but largely favorable reviews, with the chicken shawarma often described as flavorful and juicy and the hummus as incredibly creamy, accompanied by generous portions and fresh presentation; the garlic sauce is praised and the staff is noted as friendly and attentive, with catering highlighted for on time delivery, clear communication, and well packaged food for large gatherings. Many guests say they would return or recommend Amir for its overall shawarma experience and consistent quality, and several mention improvements after a change in ownership and staff. Yet some visits report issues with inventory and menu updates that left chicken dishes unavailable, requests to cancel orders and concerns about refunds, plus occasional uneven execution, bland sides or rice, and portions that feel small for the price. Overall, the venue is described as clean and welcoming, capable of delivering a solid shawarma and Lebanese influenced dishes, with progress noted in management changes but ongoing opportunities for greater consistency.

Je sais pas comment expliquer le goût & je suis quand même généreuse de donner 2 étoiles mais goût horrible, sauce à l'ail qui goûtait la vieille poubelle, laitue & tomates pas fraîche, tout ça pour 10$. J'ai vraiment vu mieux comme Shawarma

Went there Monday before Habs game Ordered the shawarma plate. The beef taste like plastic & dry. My son chicken wrap is very dry. Not alot of people but still wait 10 minutes to get order You only go there once. I don't understand the 4 stars reviews.

Got a sandwich for 12$ plus tax. Not really worth it. Taste mediocre, & portion was small. Definitely not recommended. There are many better places to get a Shawarma.
