Middle eastern authentic original food served with experience. Healthy fresh Lebanese dishes. Simply trying is believing that the Food we serve here is totally different especially the Shawarma. So, are you in the mood?
Shawarma Moods is described as a go-to for crispy, flavorful shawarma with generous portions and fresh ingredients that work well for a quick bite or late night craving. The garlic sauce and soft pita are frequently praised, and the meat is often noted as well seasoned and juicy with bold spices. Service is repeatedly described as friendly and efficient, with staff often going above and beyond. Many diners call it among the best shawarma spots in Montreal or even Canada, especially for the crispy version. However, some posts point out inconsistencies in taste and texture between visits, occasional issues with texture or over garlicky sauces, small indoor space, crowding, and occasional long waits. A few reviews also mention location variations in price, portion size, or cleanliness. Overall, the consensus leans positive and encourages trying the crispy shawarma while hot and enjoying the reliable flavors and friendly service.
I don't like this'location'
Good service, just bad food, not authentic is my real problem.
Lettuce tomatoes & turnips, on a chicken shawarma is not how it's supposed to be.
I had the best chicken shawarma - the crispy one! It was so crunchy & delicious, I had it the Lebanese way with classic pickles, fries, chicken, & garlic - absolutely amazing! We also tried the one with Saj bread, which was so good as well. Definitely recommend! I'd suggest takeout, though, because the seating area is really small - or just squeeze in if you can!

My card didn't go through the first time, & the staff were incredibly kind & understanding about it. I even came back to pay later, & they still told me it was okay. Their humility & generosity honestly stood out. Great food, amazing service, & even better people. I really appreciate them & will definitely be coming back. Not to mention the chicken was unbelievably tender.
We loved our Crispy Shwarma mmm!
We had one with a mix of chicken & beef & all dressed. It had a generous amount of meat & the sauce & dressings were delicious. We took it to go but didn't wait till we got home. You want to enjoy it hot & crispy! So good!
Greedy owners , you pay more you get less , if you expect good quantity of chicken then you are not in the right place , better to spend few minutes to eat in original shawarma , you will get what you pay for & more . Never be back again
We tried their Crispy Shawarma & their chicken shawarma plate. Everything was absolutely delicious. Best Shawarma we have ever had in Canada. Hopefully Shawarma Moods opens more restaurants all over Montreal & all over Canada. Highly recommend.

We had the viral crispy Shawarma beef & chicken. Both were so tasty & juicy. Totally worth the hype & definitely recommended. The staff are very friendly as well
A must try! Hard to not become a regular. The meat & chicken shawarma are the most authentic & flavourful you can have in Canada! I cannot recommend more ❤?

I hadn't had shawarma in a long time, so when a dear friend of mine recommended a place she loved in Laval, I couldn't wait to try it out. We visited the Côte-des-Neiges branch together, & I was impressed. The woman at the cashier was warm & welcoming, & the staff member who prepared our meals was equally kind.
I ordered a mixed shawarma plate, while my friend opted for the chicken shawarma plate. Each dish came with hummus, garlic sauce, a choice of salad, diced potatoes, & a delicious rice that I absolutely loved. The meal was only about $20, which I found very reasonable.
The shawarma sandwiches also looked appetizing, & I was particularly intrigued by the Sujuk sausage, which I've heard great things about. They even have a tasty pistachio ma'moul that I want to try next time.
Overall, the place was cozy & clean, & I highly recommend trying the shawarma here. It reminded me so much of the ones back home!❤?
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Authentic & Delicious Shawarma! I visited Shawarma Moods in Côte-des-Neiges with my friend, & we had a fantastic experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, & generously portioned. The chicken shawarma was perfectly marinated, juicy, & packed with authentic Middle Eastern spices. The garlic sauce was absolutely delicious, & the pita was soft & fresh. The staff was friendly & welcoming, making us feel right at home. The restaurant was also clean & well-maintained, which added to the overall great experience. If you're looking for one of the best shawarma spots in Montreal, this is definitely a must-try. There is a street parking $️ Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shawarma authentique & délicieux ! J'ai visité Shawarma Moods à Côte-des-Neiges avec mon amie & nous avons eu une expérience fantastique ! La nourriture était fraîche, savoureuse & généreusement servie. Le shawarma au poulet était parfaitement mariné, juteux & rempli d'épices authentiques du Moyen-Orient. La sauce à l'ail était absolument délicieuse & le pain pita était moelleux & frais. Le personnel était sympathique & accueillant, nous faisant sentir comme à la maison. Le restaurant était également propre & bien entretenu, ce qui a contribué à la formidable expérience globale. Si vous recherchez l'un des meilleurs endroits pour déguster du shawarma à Montréal, c'est définitivement un incontournable. Il y a un stationnement dans la rue $️ Fortement recommandé !
As amazing as the original location in Laval. Convenient & well located for those living in Montreal, like myself. Portions, quality & service are always A1! All white meat chicken, tender beef & great sauces (get the spicy house sauce).
My friend & I had chicken shawarma pitas, & they were fresh, served hot, & delicious. Service was quick & friendly. This one wasn't as spicy as others I've tried, which balanced the flavours of the chicken & the rest of the filling. The serving was generous for the price, but not overstuffed or messy. We sat out on the little terrasse but somehow the seasonal wasps left us alone :) There's an open kitchen, & the whole place is very clean. Thank you, & we'll be back soon.
