You know, I’ve spent a bunch of time munching around Hamilton, and Tigris Shawarma is seriously a spot worth chatting about. Nestled at 801 Mohawk Rd W, Unit #2, it’s this cute little counter-serve joint. Mesopotamian-style shawarma? Heck yes! Plus, who doesn’t love a good slice of pizza or some fries on the side, right?

Stepping inside, it’s got that casual vibe, you know? A little trendy, perfect for grabbing a quick bite. After all, who doesn’t want tasty food without all the frills? However, let’s be real for a sec—this place seems to have gathered mixed reviews. Some folks rave about the shawarma poutine, claiming it’s the best in town while others are stuck on the notion that the service can hit snags during busy times. I get it; long waits can be a pain.

One thing to note, their hours are pretty standard. They’re open your classic 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. gig on weekdays, extending to 10 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. But don’t bother on Sundays; they’re closed. Oh, and bring cash or cards—they’re cool with both.

Now, you can order takeout or dine-in, but don’t expect delivery. That’s where they seem to drop the ball sometimes. Also, there’s free parking, so that’s a win! It’s not just locals that love the place; students from just across the street frequently swing by.

I gotta say, their chicken shawarma wrap? A solid choice. With fresh ingredients and a nice variety of sauces, it tends to hint at something special.

But like any place, it has its ups and downs—the quality and quantity of food seem to fluctuate as some regulars have noted. It might just be the charm of a family-run place trying to keep pace with demands. Regardless, the cozy atmosphere and friendly staff are reasons enough to check it out. Give it a shot next time you’re in Hamilton; you might just leave with a new favorite!
