Ashot Shawarma

The best shawarma in Uruguay! This is a no frills shop where ordering is so easy, you get a piece of paper where you put your name and tick what you want, pay and the shawarma gets to you very quickly! The shop is rather small but there were not much people eating in the shop. There is a queue waiting for shawarma but most were doing takeaways. I was only one of the few dining in the shop. I have to say the shawarma was really good! The portion is definitely filling and the meat is so tender and juicy. While eating there was still meat juices oozing out of it! I also loved it when the shawarma pita was heated up so nicely there is a slight crunch to it at some parts. Truly a good place to indulge in cheap and good shawarmas.

We finally went to Ashot for a falafel shawarma during the last week of our month stay in Montevideo. What a huge mistake!! We regret waiting so long. Their falafels are delicious, I loved that they are toasted. Ordering is super easy, take a slip and mark your choices. The staff is incredibly friendly & helpful. Don’t bother looking for other falafel restaurants- we tried one and the pita was so dry & old it fell apart. Just come here.

Definitely the best shawarma I’ve tried in Montevideo. This place lives up to the hype. They have a nice method for how to order with the papers they have you complete. Great portion size for the price. I definitely recommend!

A nice change after weeks of way to sugary pastries, low quality carb-heavy foods and the heavily felt inexistence of good coffee in Paraguay as well as Uruguay 😁. A bit more sauce would have made my day but it was good and tasted fresh anyway

Very good shawarma, good amount of meat inside. You can choose from carne (i think it's a mix of pork and beef) and chicken. I like that you can fill a ticket with what you want in the wrap, that saves time.

Loved it.. from ordering to eating it. The process of ordering is too good. They give u a slip, you have to check mark whatever you want 😊. The chicken shawarma was too good. They do provide mutton(cordero) shawarma only on saturday. The have multiple topping options. Visiting on a Saturday soon for shawarma again.

A hidden gem nestled within the charming side streets of Montevideo, this delightful Armenian eatery offers an extraordinary culinary experience accompanied by impeccable service. The warmth of Armenian hospitality truly shines here, making it an exceptional dining destination.

I love shwarma & was taken here by some friends. I was so keen on having seconds but protocol said one was enough. I will be back. Highly recommended.
