About

Original Shawarma specializes in the preparation of authentic Middle Eastern staples centered around vertical rotisserie meats and fresh vegetable accompaniments. Thinly sliced chicken and beef are seasoned with traditional spice blends before being seared to optimal texture. These proteins are served within soft pita bread or alongside fragrant rice platters accompanied by house-made garlic sauce and creamy tahini. The menu features a variety of mezze options including freshly prepared hummus and crispy falafel that highlight classic culinary techniques. Diners select from numerous customizable topping configurations that emphasize the freshness of pickled vegetables and crisp greens. The establishment focuses on efficient food preparation and consistent flavor profiles to provide a straightforward representation of regional staples. Every dish reflects a commitment to traditional flavor palettes through the use of high-quality ingredients and classic preparation methods.

I came all the way from Ottawa to eat at this restaurant, & it was absolutely amazing! Everything was delicious & fresh - the rice, chicken, meat, shawarma, everything. It is definitely worth the trip, & I highly recommend everyone to try it. You will not regret it! A big thank you to all the staff for the wonderful food & service.

Honnêtement, une des meilleures places de shawarma que j'ai essayées 👌🔥
C'est vraiment trop bon, tout est frais, bien assaisonné, les portions sont généreuses pis le service est super chaleureux. On voit que le staff met du coeur dans ce qu'ils font 👏

Petit point à savoir : si vous voulez manger sur place avec la famille, surtout le week-end, attendez-vous à ce que ce soit plein, c'est dur de trouver une place 😅 Je sais pas si c'est plus tranquille durant la semaine.

Mais sinon, ça vaut vraiment le détour, je recommande à 100% 🙌
