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.

Review Summary

Original Shawarma is widely celebrated by customers as one of the best spots in Montreal for authentic Middle Eastern cuisine, particularly for its highly flavorful shawarma and impressive mandi dishes. Diners frequently highlight the generous portion sizes, fair pricing, and consistent food quality as key reasons for their return visits. While the atmosphere is often described as warm and welcoming, the restaurant is consistently busy, which can lead to long wait times and a crowded seating area. Although the majority of feedback regarding service is positive, citing the staff as friendly, professional, and accommodating, some visitors have noted occasional inconsistencies with order accuracy or temperature. Despite minor challenges regarding space and parking, the overall consensus remains strongly positive, with many customers considering it a go-to destination for high-quality, reliable, and delicious meals.

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
