Kimia
The price, the taste, & the atmosphere were all incredible. I've never had a lamb shank this delicious & definitely not at this price anywhere else. Honestly, I even forgot to take a picture because it was that good & I was too busy enjoying the food.
A thousand percent recommended!
Mohamad
Some meals don't wait for photos - they attack your hunger first. That's precisely what happened here. We started eating immediately, forgot about the picture, & only remembered when the plates were already halfway gone. Honestly? That's usually the best review a restaurant can get.
🍽? What We Actually Ordered
✔? Chicken Shawarma Plate (fries base) - $12
✔? Jarret d'agneau EXTRA (Lamb Shank) - $25 (comes with 2 lamb shanks, rice, nuts & raisins, mandi sauce)
✔? A small garlic sauce, which the staff gave it for free
✔? mandi sauce & a house mayo & tahini included
Everything else in the photo came with these two dishes.
✨ Experience & Atmosphere
We went on a Sunday night, calm but not empty. & you could tell this wasn't their'real' traffic - the setup, speed, & vibe show they're used to heavy crowds.
Ordering was smooth, the reception was patient & helpful, & the menu is much larger than at a typical'shawarma place.' It feels more like a Middle Eastern canteen with a wide comfort-food lineup.
🔥 Service That Stands Out
The garlic sauce is labelled as $X extra, but when I asked for a small one, the staff said:
'No worries, you can have it.'
Small gestures like this change everything.
& another thing:
Since they don't provide table service & don't ask for tips, it's a place that matches expectations with reality. Respect.
🍗 Taste & Quality
• Lamb shank: shockingly good. Soft, flavorful, no frozen taste, no dryness. I've paid double at other places & had meat that tasted as if it had travelled from Antarctica.
• Rice: warm, colourful, lightly spiced, & the nuts/raisins gave it an authentic eastern mandi taste.
• Chicken shawarma: juicy, well-seasoned, & NOT oily. Fries were fresh.
• Sauces: garlic sauce was excellent, smooth, creamy, not too sharp.
Even half-eaten, the plates still looked good in the photo.
That alone says enough.
💡 Practical Tips
• If you're a lamb lover, take the Jarret d'agneau, great value for two shanks.
• Garlic sauce is a must.
• The menu is larger than expected; check it thoroughly before ordering.
• Good for parties, take-out or quick dine-in. No table service.
Final Verdict:
Original Shawarma surprised me, real flavour, generous portions, no attitude, & no sneaky tipping screens. The kind of place that focuses on food, not theatrics. Given what you pay, it's really worth it.
⭐ 4.8/5 - Amazing lamb, great shawarma, honest service
Chadi
Excellent sandwiche pita poulet & agneau/boeuf , juteux & frais à souhait , je recommande une option de pita en plus grand & un pain baguette plus croustillant.
Karim
Very good food & nice service! I would definitely recommend.
Soroosh
Incredible food quality, & best value for the portion of foods. Strongly recommended 👌
H
the place is the best in town if you're looking for delicious shawarma.
My favorite is their saj chicken shawrma.
It can get crammed with customers inside, so there isn't that many tables to dine in.
Parking spots are limited.

Niveau de place à stationner votre voiture c'est un enfer.
L'entrée du restaurant semble correcte, mais accompagné d'une grosse odeur de nourriture & du gras, qui semble assez désagréable pour un client qui rentre.
Niveau nourriture, pas pire comme goût, la viande est super juteux mais très grasse, poulet c'est acceptable, & les repas sont quand même raisonnable & assez garnie.
Prix assez élever, je compare avec d'autre restaurant qui donne le même service avec un prix moins chère & quand même plus de qualité comparant à ce resto.
C'est un bon restaurant certes, mais il y'a mieux que lui avec prix plus concurrentiel.
Fille d'attentes assez longues alors préparez vous à attendre.
