Really enjoy the falafel options of Mr Shawarma, they also do the best wraps in the city. This time I tried the platter for something a little different, and was not disappointed
• Inexpensive for a quick bite $7-9; your choice of meat
• Scrumptious goodness, juicy meat, flavourful bursts
• Good and happy service personnel
• big serving, if you are a small eater, I suggest to share
Mr. Shawarma is a Vancouver food truck that has been around for several years. For the food service industry, that is a quite a long time! After regularly seeing people come away from their food truck with delicious looking wraps in their hands, I finally decided to give them a try.
I get that they make everything fresh, but holy hell, prepare for a 10-15 minute wait time, perhaps longer during lunch rushes. It's generally very good, but with the amount or orders they get they've never remembered to give me pickled turnips, which you have to ask for on the side, and aren't that good anyway.
After walking around Robson for a few hours shopping, I was feeling peckish. Seeing how dinner was still a few hours away, I was desperately looking around for something to satisfy my munchies. Just when I thought my search was going nowhere, I started smelling a rich meaty aroma amongst the hotdog stands, it lead me to a bright yellow food truck just by the Vancouver Art Gallery. Mr. Shawarma serves pita wraps like the ones from my favourite, World Wrap Place, with a spit equipped inside churning out the delicious meaty offerings.
Great-tasting food that's healthy to eat, made and served quickly. Plus, there's plenty of seating options around the art gallery and Robson Square. I wish the pricing were a bit lower considering this is a food cart - but I suppose it's no higher than any of the other food carts in the area.
Healthy on the go. Love the combo box when you got no time. Garlic sauce and rice is nice. Sometimes they run out of rice at night but it's all good. What's funny is that I notice the owners give more food to the ladies lol. Hey come on now that's a gentlemen. My girlfriend always gets more then me LOL
Falafelly great. Can't resist Mr Shawarma's fresh and crispy falafel balls in their perfectly loaded pita. Pickled turnips and tabbouli both a must. If you want it vegan, specify no mayo. I hate eating standing up but for Mr Shawarma it's worth it!
Slowest food truck EVER!!! ... but tasty.....!. I thought food truck is kinda like fast food! That's how you get more orders!! It will take you at least 20-30 min to get your wrap! It is very irritating to stand there and watch him being ultra slow. He would stare at those pieces of papers a million times and you still wouldn't get your wrap. BUT the wrap is awesome! Very very tasty!! Order your food and come back 30 min after. Don't wait around!
Great food!! Hot and flavorful!! I Love the fries in it!!!
Just try once, You will eat more... We had wonderful Chicken Shawarma hot and Spicy,, Truly its Delicious... worth for the Money... Also tried Falafel, Its so Yummy.. 😋 Still mouth watering ... Fresh and Clean 👍🏻 I can 100% agree if you try once you will visit them again and again... You can all kind of Mediterranean Dishes.. The Owners were very Friendly and Lovely 😍 👌
We discussed hereafter we won't go to any other places for these dishes only here in Mr.Shawarma Truck.....
We exited Granville Station and right outside this building we find this food truck and decided to try them out. It is the best tasting shawarma I have ever tasted. I love all the one we ordered. I will be a returning customer everytime I see them for sure. I highly recommend them for you to try.
I really loved the meal I got here! I recommend you try their chicken platter bowl. Try their hot sauce too. I don’t think it’s that spicy, but packs quite a bit of flavour and really elevates your dish. I bought mine near Robison Square and eating there just makes the experience better. Plus, the staff are some of the friendliest folks I’ve met.

Have had their food a few times. My go to is the chicken spicy box, which is what this review is about, which consists of yellow rice with peas and carrots, freshly made fries, chicken shawarma, picked veggies, spicy red sauce, and my favourite, white garlic sauce - all layered in a box. It's a fulfilling and flavourful meal only for under $10! The portion is big enough to make you feel stuffed (that is if you can finish it). The entire menu is halal. Also have had their Philly cheese steak in the past. The best halal cheese steak for under $10 in Vancouver for me! Also, VERY friendly people! Serves with salam and a smiles on their faces. Taste and portions have been consistent for as long as I have been a customer. Price and service considered, 10/10 for me!
We were happy to find this truck right by Pacific Centre as we wanted to grab a quick bite without stopping for a full meal. The Philly cheese steak and the cheeseburger were both beyond delicious. The prices are fair considering the size and quality of the meal. The portions are huge and we couldn’t finish it all right away. Surprisingly, the leftovers tasted great even a few hours later.
The server was also friendly and made sure the food was to our liking. If you’re nearby, this food truck is not one too miss!
I ordered beef Sharma, not bad , just it needs more spices , the sandwich is big , the price is good , nice staff .
I might prefer it over subway on some good days.
It looks and taste fresh.
Best part if this small outlet is it's location. Once you leave Burrad station, you can quickly grab one of their delicious wrap or bowl and head to work directly without wasting a lot of your time.
Most of the time, it's my go to place when am in Vancouver
