    This is my go to lunch spot when I’m at our downtown office. You know the quality is good because during pre pandemic times, there was barely any standing room at lunch time. On top of that, people would see the line and still wait for their meal. What I ordered: 1x 🐓Chicken on Rice What I liked: Quality ✅ great chicken shawarma and not too dry. Rice is flavourful. I’ve had falafel here too and it was 👌🏾 Service ✅ family style service at its best. Even when the line up is out the door, service isn’t compromised. Value ✅ prices are fair for the quality and portion size. Hot Sauce ✅ pretty sure it’s homemade and not siracha like many other places. This is one of the best shawarma in the downtown core, so make sure you support this restaurant!! 💯

    First time visiting wow shawarma today. I pulled up a few minutes early, and the owner noticed me outside. He welcomed us early into his restaurant with a smile! Ordered the chicken shawarma combo. It was delicious. The shawarma was loaded with all the fixings, and lightly grilled the fries were nicely crisp with a light seasoning. I would reccomend you to drop in and have some great eats! 5 stars. Definitely will return.

    Awesome shawarma and fattoush salad. Truly an excellent bite on the go although you might want to stay and have some tasty rice. Kind and generous owners, free waters during the summer, generous portions. Just get everything on whatever you order and enjoy! 🐔 > 🐐

    We tried this place today. The food was good quality and fresh. What was even more amazing was the customer service. They owner is super sweet and generous. We wanted to make sure the meat was Halal and he went to great lengths to answer us. There is a halal certificate clearly visible as you enter. The certificate is from MB foods. The owner offered us free drinks and gave free rice to the children. Even when we were leaving he offered us more drinks incase the kids were thirsty. Super sweet of him. We ordered falafel wraps and chicken shawarma combos. Highly recommend the falafel wraps. The portions are quite big so come with an appetite. It’s downtown so parking could usually be an issue. We went on a Saturday so loads of free parking was available.

    Warm and friendly owners. Shawarma chicken and bread was a bit dry. Might be because i went towards the end of lunch rush). Sauces were good though.

    Hasin and his lovely wife are wonderful! They always make me feel welcomed. The owner is very wise and often gives me a history/ geography lesson. I am blessed to know these wonderful people!

    Incredibly delicious wraps and fries! Saeed and his wife are the loveliest and most generous owners I have ever met! I have placed large orders for events twice now with them and was assured by the owner that I'd leave happy - and I did! they have the best deals around and tend to give an extra wrap or two for good measure. Saeed also very kindly gave me free falafels with garlic sauce for our group to try! Truly the sweetest couple and the yummies wraps! Must try in London!

    Best shawarma in Ontario!! Not only do they care about the food that they put on their customers plate, they also take the time to remember what you like, prefer and even your name if you are a regular. This place is amazing and so happy I got to come across, owner and his wife are so friendly, loving and know how to serve us hungry londoners!!! Love Chelsea guys!!!!

    We ordered about 100 shawarmas from WOW and it was so easy to coordinate with them! They had our order packaged perfectly and everything tasted delicious! Everyone in our group was raving about how much they LOVED the shawarma. The chicken and falafel were absolutely amazing! Thank you so much WOW Shawarma! I really look forward to any future events we have so that we can reach out and work with you all again soon.

    Adorable family owned business, I walked out with a smile on my face. It's rare to find such sincere and kind people. I'm so glad we chose this shawarma place for our brief stopover in London. Excellent wholesome food, excellent service. We got chicken shawarma wraps, a combo and a plate. They also gave us some nice freebies.

    I went in yesterday for a quick work lunch where I had some good shawarma. Said was a friendly host who added to our meal with some pita chips. Great chat with the owners and I enjoyed my experience there. Definitely a good place to support.

    We were in London, ON for a conference this weekend. While doing some online research on the best places to eat in the city, we discovered 𝐖𝐎𝐖 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐚. I gave them a call to ask about the menu. The lady on the other end said "Just come in dear... we will take care of you... I assure you will have the best experience at our place". And we absolutely did 😊 Upon arrival, both her and her husband gave me the warmest of welcomes. They explained the menu in detail and took a genuine interest in understanding my likes and dislikes. Then they prepared a couple of custom dishes, based on what they thought I'd like best. When I was ready to pay, they gave me a discount along with a bottles of water. As I left the restaurant, I remembered the words of the lady, who had assured me "We will take care of you..." My family and I ate our delicious meal with smiles on our faces (doesn't typically happen with kids!)

    I came here at lunch and the owner was really friendly and welcoming. The store is smaller than most around the area but it doesn’t take a way from any of the quality- food is great and service is fast.

    Hands down THE BEST Fattoush salad in London. Ingredients are fresh and crisp, dressing is light and flavourful. I order it with shawarma chicken and all options on top and it is consistently amazing every time I order it, which is often. The staff are always friendly. It’s a total gem tucked away downtown on Clarence/Queens Would highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Rashmy S. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered for 2 of us. Very nice portion size. Extremely pleased with customer service. Would definitely go again. So far best place for chicken and rice in London. A hidden gem.

    I love this place. Owners are very generous. Food is awesome.

  • 5/5 Aaron W. 1 year ago on Google
    This is by far the best shawarma in town. The owners are the most friendly staff and people I have ever met. I am a regular there now, and they know me by name and face and always greet me. They know my order and make it perfectly each time. They even throw in a free bottle of water, and sometimes pita chips too. I don't go anywhere else for shawarma anymore, this place cannot be beat. The food is also delicious and fresh.

  • 5/5 Dahlias L. 1 year ago on Google
    Best shawerma in London, family made and original recipes, always come here

  • 5/5 Theoren J. 1 year ago on Google
    I come here most Thursday nights when not golfing. A tradition that started with my dad during the pandemic and has continued to this day. The food is delicious, good price, and the owners are very kind, and friendly. I very much enjoy their sense of humour. If my dad were more technological he too would give this business 5 stars too. And he is economical with complements/tips. I used to think Osmow's was the best until I tried Wow Shawarma.

  • 5/5 Terra K. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow Sharma! is by far my favourite place to get a shawarma/ salad in London! They always pile everything on and do not skimp on toppings. You can tell it's all freshly made and the personal touches go a long way. Try them out downtown London if you haven't been yet :) Thank you for your great food and service!

  • 5/5 Amie E. 1 year ago on Google
    Chicken shawarma wrap needed 2 hands to hold and had lots of seasoning on the chicken itself. I ordered as part of an office lunch and we received lots of freebies too. Pita chips were perfectly cooked and seasoned as well. Yummy and filling!

  • 5/5 Darlene A. 1 year ago on Google
    Family owned and family run and they treat EVERYBODY as though you are family. Great service, great food, you can't get a better shawarma anywhere else in London. Today they prepared meals for our party of 10 people and really took care of us. You need to go there.....now!

  • 5/5 AK 1 year ago on Google
    You will not find a better tasting shawarma in southwestern Ontario. The quality and freshness of all ingredients, from the chicken to veggies to the pita and sauces, are far superior to the dozens of other middle eastern restaurants I've tried over the years. To seal the deal, the price is $8-$9 per shawarma and the owners typically offers you a free drink and/or side of rice or pita chips with dip. The owners go over and above to offer a quality product and connect with their customers through conversation. Always friendly and welcoming when you step inside. Just an outstanding restaurant with the best shawarma ever!!!

  • 5/5 Adil M. 1 year ago on Google
    me and my friends came here to grab a quick bite for lunch. turned out to be possibly the best shawarma we’ve had. the owners are absolutely amazing people and offered exceptional service. will definitely be coming back here again

  • 5/5 Aidan S. B. C. 2 years ago on Google
    This is by far the best food in London. Wholesome food and incredibly friendly people. The food is very fresh, while the shawarma is richer than the standard dry Lebanese style. It has the most amazing homemade garlic toum. Every time I go there my friends and I are given extra fries or pita chips or drinks. If you go there, you’ll probably see me enjoying my shawarma. 5/5

  • 5/5 Andrew P. 2 years ago on Google
    Having grown up here I can say this is definitively the best shawarma in London, maybe the best food in London. 5/5 WOW!

  • 5/5 Emily C. 2 years ago on Google
    Five stars! I lived nearby Wow Shawarma for many years and they are my go-to for a healthy and delicious lunch. My favorite is the lamb shawarma, such good flavor in the lamb! Family owned business and the owners are soooo friendly and kind!

  • 1/5 Vonuchaya J. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is total garbage!!! Cold shawarmas, meat tastes gross and unchewable. Salad was old and withered, Dressings on top were smothered all over the container, super strong onion smell.
