Review Summary

Reviewers consistently highlight Original Shawarma for generous portions, especially the mandi and shawarma, strong authentic flavors, and good value for money, with many calling it the best shawarma in Montreal or even Canada. The meat is described as juicy and well seasoned, sauces like garlic sauce are standout, and the rice and sides are noted as solid or excellent; the dine in experience is praised for atmosphere and service in many visits, while others complain about crowded, noisy rooms, long queues, and occasional slow or disorganized service. Some meals arrive cold or overly salty on certain visits, and parking is frequently cited as a challenge. Takeout and family platters are popular and price point is a strong positive, though quality can vary across visits. Overall the sentiment is that Original Shawarma delivers great flavor and generous portions, attracting repeat customers, while peak hours can stress the staff and space.

Food's alright but I can't in good faith give more stars. (tldr at the bottom) I ordered a Chicken Shawarma Trio & I waited for a good 30 mins (the time of order was on the receipt) but they skipped my number. No biggie, a lot of restaurants do them out of order so that just means my order's coming up soon right? Three entire families that ordered after me got their family meals, so 45 mins into my wait, I go up to ask if they forgot my order & the guy just waved me off. It took another 10 minutes before the guy acknowledged me as I kept calling for him after he waved me off (it's been 55 mins now). He was very dismissive & eventually (for some reason) told me to show the receipt to the cashier. The cashier (who at this point is a different person from the one that took my order) was clearly confused & I had to grab the attention of a whole other line cook for my order to be acknowledged. To add insult to injury they were basically interrogating me if I've already grabbed my order when I showed the order time of my receipt. The called orders were in chronological order on a tv screen & mine was clearly skipped. I was sitting on the bench right in front of the line cooks too for most of the wait. Felt very insulting. The food is definitely decent but the whole ordeal left an awful taste in my mouth. tldr; waited for literally over an 1 hour for my meal & staff were very disrespectful. Edit: Since I've written this review, I've been there 2 more times & everything went well, so I added a sta
