Amazing & warm experience Food was prepared fresh as well Clean and authentic Must visit !!

December 7, 2024

Horrible what happened, use to get food here and falafel was use to be good size, and they would give you 5, now it's half the size and only give you 4, and STILL charged $20 never again you can't decrease half the size of the meal and still charge this much and website says 5 falafel on top of that. Disappointed and will not come back.

First timer.... staff actually walked me through the menu. My meal was fantastic, quick and definitely worth the money! Atmosphere was clean and friendly. I will definitely go there again, and again….

Best service EVER! The staff knows us by name and even remembers our order! We eat here at least once a week if not more. We also love the late night hours and general atmosphere of the restaurant….

November 20, 2024

Ordered regular half and half chicken....asked for sauce on the side and was charged 89 cents.... I ended up getting my 89 cents back and no sauce at all. Guy and young girl rude at cash (probably related) find taste dry and gross and couldn't eat. Refused to remake it with sauce on it or offer full refund. Never going back again.

I love this place the food is amazing and the man that works in the afternoon ( i believe the owner). but recently been going later at night and two younger girls have been working and can never get the order right. Multiple times I’ve asked at the counter when ordering no spicy and just garlic sauce on our poutines and they continue to put the hot sauce and other sauces on while looking at the screen with my order on it. I would totally understand the mistake if it was super busy and a one time thing but it’s just been me and my spouse and probably two other people in the store the couple times this has happened. When going to this place I 100% recommend the food I just recommend going earlier in the day when the nice gentleman is working.

My wife just bought 2 regular chicken on the rocks from this location today Oct 15th 2024 3:30pm that they said it’s special today for $5.99 But what I found out it was just joke to customers as bowls half full with rice and few chicken pieces on top. I’m adding pictures of it. Very very poor service from them and it’s almost 15 minutes from our Home.please check pics below that what we got on National shawarma day 😂 very disappointing. Specials are for customers appreciation not to fool people.Alliston,on Location

There used to be an Indian guy who worked here. The way he made the wrap v/s the way others make it, is different. His wrap was far better than the way others make it here or at another Osmow's. I gave it 5 stars before, now it's 3. I feel the quantity of meat and sauces per wrap have decreased. One time the chicken was almost wet and the other time beef was very dry.

I went there for Chicken shwarma wrap which is my favourite from Osmows Shawarma. Out of all Osmows Shawarma I tried, this was the best I ever had. All the toping and chicken was evenly wrapped in pitta bread. The customer service was the best, an employee named Bassem who took my order and made the Shawarma for me was really nice to me. I really appreciate the customer service here. Ill be back at this place when I get the chance 100%

If you re looking for a great place to eat, this is it! the staff are always great and the food is delicious! We go here instead of other fast food places that are greasy, not filling and expensive. Here you can have leftovers instead of being hungry later. I usually get a chicken or beef Oz Box but tonight I tried the Philly Cheese Chicken and greek salad OMG! It s sooo good! You won t regret anything you try here but this one has a lot of flavour! 10/10

Edit- second order from this location. Wow you guys are not good at following orders! Maybe you shouldnt take online ordering off if you cant follow it. On this second order I got chicken shawarma poutine and I asked for onions ( which were HUGE chunks), hot peppers and extra cheese. The hot peppers and extra cheese were missing. Since the owner said I was a liar last time, I added a screenshot of my order :) Get it together. WORST osmows on Ontario. As many other reviews have said. Other locations make you look like a joke. Worst Osmows location Ive been to. Ordered a large chicken on the rocks with a bunch of added toppings (for extra $$$) and they forgot the feta cheese. They also didnt put ANY sauce in my order, or add any spice when I asked for spice. The chicken was chewy and didnt taste freshly cooked. Also the veggies on my order (lettuce + onion + tomato) were all cut very large. I had pieces of onion that were a whole bite on its own ! Overall very bad food. Service seemed okay when I came to pick it up, but unfortunately the meal wasnt edible. Waste of $25

October 21, 2024

Oct 5 2024. 12 noon. Went to this location for the first time and ordered a large chicken on the rocks. The guy was friendly and the order was quick. Brought it back to the cottage to eat. WILL NEVER RETURN. This is my first review for anything. I read other reviews out of curiosity for this location and came to similar conclusions. It lacked the sauce and was overall dry. The flavoring was also lacking something. I think it was no tahinny. Not sure if they are suppose to add it or if I am supposed to ask for it. In that case they should ask the customer if they want it. I stopped going to another South Mississauga location a while ago when they started to charge me for extra sauce. I asked them , do they give a price reduction if I dont want any sauce. She laughed and said no. Subway is amazing for this. GENEROUS !!! NEVER AGAIN FOR OSMOWS.

This is by far the worst Osmows Ive gone to. They hold back on the amount of sauce they give you compared to other Osmows locations. When you ask for more the guy says its the standard amount and if you want more you have to pay for it. If I order ahead, they NEVER put the garlic sauce on the chicken and when I call to rectify, the guy says not everyone likes the sauce when I specifically order with the sauce! That happened to me three times already so I had to stop ordering on the phone and just go in instead. Aside from them skimping on the sauce, the chicken is ALWAYS so dry and they chop it up so small it looks like youre eating minced meat. This location is horrible when it comes to their portions. No other location skimps on sauce and ingredients as much as this location. On my latest order (Jul. 29, 2024), I ordered a Philly chicken on rice and I was told it doesnt come with garlic sauce on top and other locations do put it on. I was so annoyed, the owner didnt even put enough Philly sauce on the chicken so everything was so dry while I was eating it. This location needs to do better, stop skimping your customers.

I recently visited Osmows in Alliston and had an incredible experience. The friendly customer service provided by Bassem, the owner, was outstanding, he assisted me in taking my large catering order for my brothers birthday party and was very thorough and guided me threw it. The restaurant was super clean, the washrooms were the cleanest fast food washrooms i ve ever been and the outside and kitchen was clean too. Everyone dug in very quickly when we arrived, the smell was unlike any other, if you haven t been I recommend the tzatziki sauce with anything it s something else, overall I had the best experience from any fast food restaurant at osmows alliston. Vegetarian options: Falafel and Beyond meat is what I believe to be there only vegetarian options, although both are fantastic.

★★★★★

The Alliston Osmows is a great place to get an affordable, quality meal. The service is friendly and fast and the food is delicious. The restaurant is very clean and inviting if you choose to stay to eat. Alternatively, the take-out is delicious. I frequent this location often and always have fresh, healthy, and yummy options to choose from. Highly recommend!

This place was great when they first came to town. Now any time I order, items are missing, or the item is made incorrectly. I ordered hummus, advertised with 2 pitas. All i received was a container of hummus. I guess Ill eat it with my hands? Also the meat is very dry the last few times I have ordered, and the wraps arent being made with enough sauce, if any. This business has shown overall laziness and carelessness from the cooks to the management. Sad to see, because this used to be the best spot for shawarma in town.

June 21, 2024

The quality of food has gone downhill When I first visited this place when it opened I would say it had the best shawarma in town. Nowadays the chicken is dry and full of oil and their rice is really undercooked. I really wish the management considers this and takes measures.

This is the worst osmows I ve been to. The chicken is never fresh straight from a bucket and never placed on the grill. So dry and tasteless the rice must have been cooked hours ago if not yesterday. Definitely not up to the standard I ve known for years going to locations around the city. The salad was over 50% onions. I get it times are tough but I paid 37 dollars for two oz boxes and two canned drinks. Will not be back and don t recommend wasting your money here there are better shawarma restaurants in Alliston to visit.

My husband and I come to this location whenever we want Osmows because it s the best Osmows we ve ever had. The food is always fresh and delicious and the staff is always super nice and friendly. Thank you for the yummy food and great service! :)

Whoever is working today should get a new job. None of the items we ordered were made with love. Chicken on salad was literally swimming in water. It also had a really weird taste to it I dont know if the recipe was changed or if there was a different seasoning added, but the flavour was terrible. Ordered two Chicken Shawarmas they came looking completely different from one another. One was double the size of the other and shaped like a sandwich and one was closer to regular size, but the wrap job was mangled. The inside of the Shawarma was lackluster- basically one pickle one shred of lettuce and one turnip. We also ordered a Philly cheese steak and it was completely swimming and sauce. I understand theres an element of that especially if you order it to go and have it 15 minutes later, but it was literally pooling and soaked, as was the bag it came in! Osmows has gone down hill.

Inconsistent portion size. It is hit or miss every time I go there if you re gonna get a proper serving size or a mediocre serving size . If the owner is working behind the counter, expect to get 2/3 of the takeout container. Other times one of the staff will properly fill the takeout container to a reasonable fill for the price. Today, was an absolute joke, the associate barely filled the to go takeout container half way (literally half a serving). And had to be reminded to add more. Even my friend who ordered a OzBox was seriously dissatisfied. Barely any salad and a half serving of chicken on the rocks. Our meals were nearly 20$ each, for that I expected a meal . I will have to start taking my service elsewhere unless some consistency and value for money becomes standard. Other locations have been great, this one is obviously run on a nickel and dime mentality In the past ive also caught the cashier adding extra charges to the order (extra garlic sauce 0.85$) even though I denied wanting it. Didn t catch it until i looked at my receipt. And definitely did not even get the extra on the meal.

Owner greeted us with a smile, was super polite and explained their new menu. Food was prepared quickly and served with care. I know this is a chain, but the service we received felt like it was a sit down restaurant. If you are in the area, this is definitely a staple local food stop.

I purchased dinner for my husband and I from this location. I never thought twice about the quality, hence the brand. But I was very disturbed hearing my husband say he could not finish his meal, even before I had started mine. His choice, chicken shawarma wrap, and mine chicken shawarma on the rocks. Both, we re terrible. You could tell the ingredients were aged or artificial, and the blend of the sauce was very off. I had two bites, and through my mouth full in the garbage. To round it off, I paid 30 dollars for bad food. Not just taste, I mean bad food that upsets your stomach. This experience will haunt us and regrettably, we will never go to an Osmosis again. Our regards.

I love osmows but the alliston one is subpar, and this is not the first time we ve had a bad experience with the osmows in alliston. The rice today smelled like it had gone bad. They always ask if we want extra garlic sauce and when we say no, they give the smallest amount of sauce that covers around 1/6 of the meat. If you can, make a trip to the angus one.

First and foremost the worker or owner was super nice and this is not a negative comment towards that person. My comment is for all Osmows locations. This place use to be one of the best places to get a Schwarma but they are disguising now...no flavor, the toppings taste stale and they eliminated olives and parsley from an already scarce topping list. I will never return to an Osmows ever again! I threw out half my Schwarma and I was hungry! Thats how bad it was!

To be honest, I was disappointed by the quality of food. It was meh. It wasn t terrible, but you could tell they changed the rice from yellow turmeric shawarma rice, to white rice, with some kind of seasoning to make it look a bit yellow (it honestly tasted EXACTLY like 5 min instant white rice) the chicken was okay, but I ve never had a shawarma place charge extra for the sauce that goes on top. I paid 17$ for chicken and rice and I don t even feel satisfied. I m sure they could get away with this in alliston, because there s not much culture here or options, but it s a solid 4/10, at the most. But on the more optimistic side; the restaurant was clean, and the workers were fairly nice.

December 21, 2023

I ve been a customer here for almost 2 years and it really hurts me to have to write this. As time has gone on the food has gotten worse and the owners have become unreasonable stingy. I am a long time, die-hard, Osmows fan as I have been eating Osmows for 5 years now. I always come to this location and there are a few problems that are really crucial to address since I will never come back to this location. First of all, this is the only Osmows location where the chicken is tough and feels like well done steak, and where the rice is even more tough to the point where they feel undercooked. Also, the garlic sauce is very pasty unlike every other Osmows where it is creamy. However, the worst part is how stingy the person operating this restaurant is. Whenever I go to here I always order extra garlic sauce, however, my meal is always dry and left unbearably spicy since there is not enough garlic sauce to balance the hot sauce that I order. Mind you, I pay for extra garlic sauce so I m not asking for something above and beyond. All in all, avoid this place and go somewhere more local since it will always be more fresh.

I walked in to blaring music from a flashy black PA speaker and a blaring tv. I tried to call my son to get his order but I couldnt hear him due to the competing sounds. I had to ask him to text me his order. Once I had his text, I tried to place his order and mine, but could neither hear nor understand the lady serving me. After the fourth attempt to communicate, we got our order started. I guess it was the guy cooking who was playing the music so he could hear it under the fans, but man! I have my usual order at the Osmos in Rexdale where the portion is huge and if you prder it spicy hot, it is very spicey! Here it was barely warm, not hot at all. The meat tasted dry and the toppings were sparse. It was the most underwhelming meal I have ever had at an Osmos. For just under $50, I got 2 swarma wraps, 2 cokes and some fries. In addition, I got to be frustrated and unable to communicate with people I was trying to do business with.

A Taste of Authenticity at this Osmow s location. Osmowos has always been my favourite shawarma spot. Likely, this location is far better than the others. I opted for the chicken shawarma wrap, and it was a decision Ill never regret. The chicken was exquisitely seasoned and cooked to tender perfection. Wrapped in a freshly baked pita, with a harmonious blend of tahini sauce, pickles, and just the right amount of garlic sauce, it was a delight in every bite. The service was another high point. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive without being intrusive. They seemed genuinely proud of their offerings, ,and rightfully so. Keep it up guys for the best shawarma.
