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 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!
The worst shawarma i've ever tasted. The entire hype was bs. I couldn't even try this for a long time, the line was all the way outside, & once you got inside there was no organization, people just pass in front of you, there's no line, the service is terrible as well so I decided to leave & go somewhere else.
I finally tried it for the first time & I was excited but OMG the disappointment! So blend, everything tasted meh, like any other shawarma is better. The only thing different is the crispy pita which tasted nice, but everything inside was just blend.
Im happy I never waited 1-2h outside in the cold for this.
Sorry didn't take pics, just not even worth it.
I was there a few minutes ago & took my shawarma to go but couldn't help myself from devouring it on my way to my next destination. The hype is definitely real & Wow! I took a crispy mixed meat shawarma & I am totally blown away by how fresh & tasty & delicious it was.
I will definitely come back & get more!
Thank you!
Hands down the best crispy shawarma I've ever had.
Perfectly grilled, insanely crispy on the outside, juicy & flavorful on the inside. Every bite is packed with bold spices, fresh ingredients, & that unbeatable crunch that makes you come back for more. The garlic sauce is on point, the wrap is toasted just right, & the balance of flavors is flawless.
If you're a shawarma lover & you like it crispy, this place is a must-try. Easily one of the best shawarmas around.
I had the beef crispy & it was so tasteless I cant believe the hype around this place only for making your bread crispy, the sandwich lacked so much flavour. The guy making the sanding didn't even ask what I wanted inside he just made it as he pleased.
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!
Came here to try the crispy shawarma, & it was not worth the hype. There is barely any sauce inside the wrap, & hardly any flavour. The potatoes were lacking flavour as well, over hyped for nothing.

I would highly recommend eating immediately on the go & not wrapping it for later even if it's less than 15 mins or else the crispy shawarma will fade away & they warn you about that if you order it with saj instead of pita bread. The place needs to streamline a little better but overall, it was worth the 30 mins wait. Be patient!
The crispy shawarma was honestly delicious!
The wrap had the perfect crunch on the outside, while the meat inside stayed juicy & flavorful.
Fresh veggies added a nice freshness, & the portion size was generous.
Overall, a great mix of texture & taste.
I'de definitely order it again!
I was craving good food on a saturday night & got there right before closure. Super friendly staff & most importantly, best shawarma Ive tasted. The crispy sandwich was worth the 1h drive. 10/5
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.
It wasn't as good as it looked. Maybe got them on a bad day. Very small location with so many people inside.
The potatoes weren't super fresh.
The crispy shawarma was good but I personally prefer Boustan.
Staff was nice. I want to give it 3 stars because of the hype which is blown out of proportion but I think unbiased, it deserves 4 stars for food
