Review Summary

Shawarma Moods has garnered a strong reputation among many diners for serving some of the best and most authentic Middle Eastern cuisine in Montreal, with frequent praise for the signature crispy shawarma, generous portion sizes, and juicy, well-seasoned meat. Many customers appreciate the welcoming staff and fast service, frequently highlighting the quality of the garlic sauce and the freshness of the ingredients. While the food is widely celebrated as a must-try experience, some visitors have noted that the restaurant space is quite small and can feel cramped, leading to longer wait times and occasionally limited seating comfort. Reviews remain mixed regarding overall consistency, as a subset of patrons felt the flavors were sometimes bland or the service fell short during peak hours, though the majority of feedback reflects a highly positive experience that justifies the popularity of the location.

I have heard about this place because of TikTok a while ago, & I finally went today.

My friend & I tried the viral crispy shawarmas that we kept hearing about on social media & it did not disappoint!⭐?🙌🏻

The chicken & veggies were very fresh & the bread was nice & crispy. I highly recommend this spot if you're around Côte-des-Neiges.🩷

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
