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.

Very poor service, I was given the wrong order twice. Called them & they said come & we will fix but wasted my time & Mr. Manager did not had the courtesy to respect & compensate.

Seriously, the food was amazing, & the people were so generous. I made a mistake & ordered the wrong food, & when I asked, it turned out to be my mistake. They brought me my favorite dish, shawarma, for free just because I told them I was from Ottawa.

I've been a customer for a long time & have been supporting this restaurant since their first Mississauga location. I order from them regularly, usually around 3-4 times a month, because I genuinely enjoy the food.

Recently I had an issue with the quality of one of my orders, so I reached out to the manager directly. I really appreciated how professionally they handled the situation. They responded quickly, apologized sincerely, & made things right right away.

That kind of customer service means a lot & shows they truly care about their customers & reputation. Mistakes can happen anywhere, but the way a business responds is what makes the difference.

Because of their positive attitude & respectful treatment, I'll continue supporting them & ordering again. Great food & excellent customer service.

I have tried so many different Shawarma dishes in Montreal, New York & so many other places & this one is pretty good. I am happy with it. The chicken is well seasoned, & the rice & the other toppings are also well balanced. The tomatoes are the best addition because it adds a little bit of tang to it.
