Reviewers consistently praise Baba Shawarma for flavorful, generously portioned Lebanese dishes with juicy meat, fresh sauces, and homemade saj bread, often calling it the best shawarma in the south shore. The service is described as fast, friendly and welcoming, with a clean, cozy vibe and portions that feel like good value. Menu highlights such as shawarma (beef and chicken), shish taouk, kafta, and plates with pickled veggies on saj are noted for authenticity and generous toppings, with many mentioning leftovers that still taste great. A few comments mention minor issues like occasional busy moments or table cleanliness, but overall the sentiment is overwhelmingly positive and the restaurant is recommended as a top choice for shawarma and Lebanese flavors in the area.
Honestly best shawarma with amazing toppings. Most shawarma places have become stingy with toppings, giving u like 1-2 tomatoes, turnips etc. But this sandwich was loaded! & the flavours Mashallah ! Awesome place
Honnetement j'ai été tellement surprise par la quantité & qualité du plat, j'avais tellement faim & quand j'ai vue un restaurant libanais sur la rive sud ainsi je suis tombé en amour , c'est tellement tellement bon je n'ai plus besoin d'aller loin !! Delicieuse nourriture & trés bon service je recommande fortement !

Franchement, Babashawarma est l'un des meilleurs restos que j'ai essayés ! Tout est top 👌 La nourriture est délicieuse, la shawarma est incroyable, le service est rapide & le personnel super sympa. L'endroit est propre & les prix sont raisonnables. Je reviendrai sûrement & je le recommande à tout le monde !
We chose this restaurant completely by chance, as we recently moved to the area. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by a very kind & attentive gentleman. Despite a small line behind me, he took the time to listen & guide us through the menu with great care.
The décor immediately caught my attention-especially a beautiful black-&-white photo showing someone who looked like they belonged to a time before the 1950s. You quickly understand that this place is not just another business filling a market need; it's a family legacy built on pride & love for what they serve.
That love was perfectly expressed in the dish he recommended-their specialty. I agreed to try it without hesitation… & what a surprise! It was the best Shawarma I've ever tasted in Canada. It felt like being transported to the streets of Lebanon, enjoying a local treasure.
The flavor, the texture-everything was simply delicious. My wife & I instantly became fans. To give you an idea… we came back just 24 hours later to enjoy it again.
Forget the rest. This is where you'll find the best.
This is where you can travel to Beirut-no plane ticket needed-just one incredible sandwich crafted by true masters of their tradition.
