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 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.

Just a basic shawarma. They may need to clean or change their Panini press device, the shawarma tastes a carbonated iron.

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.

Stopped by this shawarma place & the food honestly surprised me… in a good way! The shawarma itself is great, well-seasoned, & fresh. The only thing is the space inside is really small & there isn't much room to sit. There's no outdoor seating either, so it's not the most comfortable spot if you want to dine in.

If you're okay with grabbing your food & going, or just waiting a bit for a seat, it's worth it for the flavor alone. The food makes up for the lack of space.

I went there with my girlfriend at night & the male staff there clearly showed signs of bad behavior (expect for the lady at the cash) for I don't know what reason. They (the boys) messed up the food & it was not worth ~50$ at all for three shawarma. The shawarma they advertised online was false too, looked like a crepe with meat in real life. They also put way too much garlic mayo, it ruined the food.

I'm from Gatineau & was in the area. Decided to give it a try after hearing about it all over social media. Best shawarma I've ever ate hands down. Thank you to the owner Mehdi for his kindness!!!
