Shawarma Byte - HALAL- Mediterranean Lebanese cuisine

Great value and authentic Lebanese flavors, seriously good stuff. Been all about those savory bites and crispy treats. Definitely worth every penny. Got that perfect balance of spices; just can’t get enough. You know how sometimes you just crave that real taste? Yeah, this place hits the spot. Everything feels so genuine and fresh. Grab a quick bite or just chill with friends there, it's all good vibes.

Tried the Viral wrap. Good, but I prefer the traditional Shawarma. More complex flavors and a better flavor balance. The garlic sauce and pickles were competing with one another.
Server was very friendly and service was quick.
Very cafeteria feel if you're eating in. Really better for takeout.

The potatoes were dry and tasteless, the chicken was supposed to be crispy. The sauces weren't worth mentioning. I definitely won't be going there again.

Don't Get Sick!!!!
The same gloves they use to serve the food is the same gloves they use to handle the cash!! They don't even change gloves, very unhygienic!!

Update: This was not a preference issue. I’ve had many crispy/viral sandwiches, and none were served blackened and burnt like this. Crispy does not mean burnt. This is a quality issue; not a debate to start.

Absolutely 💯 wonderful place to go. I placed a online order. It was fresh hot and couldn't of ask for a better atmosphere will definitely be ordering from here again. Great job guys

I’ve been coming here for a while now and it never disappoints. The portions are generous and the garlic sauce is on point. A huge shoutout to Ali his service is phenomenal. He takes great care in making the wraps exactly how you like them and brings such a great energy to the place. Top tier service👌

The chicken shawarma was incredibly flavorful: tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. The garlic sauce deserves its own shoutout—creamy, strong, and addictive without being overpowering. The wrap was fresh and toasted just right, giving a great balance between softness and crunch.
Ali is the best.

Easily the best place in Ottawa, won’t go to any other shawarma spot after trying this place, the staff are top tier, the ingredients are fresh and tasty, the price is incredible, won’t take my money anywhere else

This place is very sad since they did renovations. $12 for a tiny shawarma sandwich…. $12!!!Flavour is bland. Portion is tiny. I ordered a chicken shawarma sandwich, it literally had 5 grams of chicken on it. Staff/owner very cheap. Not worth coming here, pricing and flavour is horrible. A shawarma sandwich is $3 more than any other shawarma place. Save yourself the money and go to shawarma creek next door.

One of the best Shawarmas in the city, the staff is great, I got a family plate for 5, it was well served with beef and chicken, they also gave me 3 drinks with the family pack.

Beautiful location, renovations were done not too long ago and it completely changed the atmosphere. This place is perfect for a late night bite. We got the mixed shawarma poutine with spicy garlic. The fries were good.
The poutine however did lack gravy and the meats were not to my liking. Won’t fault them as we came in at 1:00am. That being said I would still come back when the late cravings hit, they have 10% off burgers, wings, and poutines after 10:00pm. Also they offer 10% for military and veterans. The staff are super nice.
