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 recognized as a top-tier destination for authentic Middle Eastern cuisine in Montreal, with many diners praising the generous portions, flavorful chicken and lamb shawarma, and the standout Mandi dishes. While the restaurant earns high marks for its fresh, high-quality ingredients and generally professional service, its immense popularity often leads to significant wait times, crowded seating areas, and occasional challenges with order consistency. Despite these busy conditions, the staff is frequently commended for their welcoming and accommodating attitude, making the establishment a highly recommended spot for those seeking satisfying and reliable meals at a great value.

Easily the best shawarma I've tried in my life, & thats me comparing it to my home country which tells you a lot, liked mandi with lamb better than chicken, but both still really good, their garlic sauce is to die for & their prices are just insane in comparison with the amount of food you get, will be back a 100%

Good mandi - tender meat, flavorful rice, big portion. Mild spices but juicy & satisfying. Would order again.

Bon service de la part d'Akram 👍
Il fait vraiment l'effort de satisfaire les clients.

Par contre, une employée nous a demandé de partir d'une manière désagréable.
dommage, ça gâche l'expérience.

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% 🙌
