Baba Shawarma

Best Lebanese restaurant on the south shore by miles! Could not recommend it more. Order your sandwich on their homemade saj bread-it's delicious.

Great shawarma, but it completely depends on who is behind the counter.
This spot has the potential for truly great shawarma, but the consistency is lacking. If the owner makes your Shawarma, you are lucky, you will get a hot, & delicious shawarma every single time. You can really see & appreciate the genuine effort the owner puts into preparing it hot & making sure it's done right.
Unfortunately, if the other guy makes it (like today), it can be a disaster. Today's experience was incredibly disappointing; it felt like no effort was put into making it right. I ended up with cold, under-cooked beef in a Saj Shawarma that wasn't tasty at all. You can easily see the massive difference in how the owner prepares the food versus how this employee does it.
I am reducing my rating by 1 star specifically because of this uninterested employee who is not serving with any consistency.
I really hope management takes this as constructive feedback. Customers should get the same high-quality, hot, & delicious shawarma every time they walk through the door, irrespective of who is making it. I'd love to keep supporting this business, but the quality needs to be consistent!

Updated my review after visiting again.

Feels like Lebanon. The saj was super fresh, the flavors were authentic, & the shish taouk had that real Lebanese touch. Baba Shawarma keeps it simple & delicious.

One of the best shawarmas I've had in Canada. Great meat, nice & crispy saj. You'll struggle to find better taste wise.

The beef shawarma on saj was amazing, my wife said it's the best shawarma she's ever had & she grew up in the Middle East. We ate it too quickly to take a picture

Definitely a new fave! We ordered the tablieh platter. The chicken shawarma was one of the best. The platter had a saj wrap with garlic potatoes & pickles. It was fresh & delicious.

Unreal. I had shawarma beef saj at baba. The home made saj is unreal, the beef is unreal & the other garnishing were unreal. Ive had many shawarma wraps, including'Dunya' multiple times. Baba has taken the crown decisively.

I feel like I found best shawarma in great Montreal area. Saj rap crisps is mind blowing. Love the place.

Way overrated, too much sauce, not worth it, the rating it has is not it, gave me mostly burned pieces, the saj sandwich was good hence the 2 stars, forget the rest
