Review Summary

Dunya is widely celebrated as one of the best and most authentic Lebanese shawarma spots in Montreal, frequently described by visitors as tasting exactly like home. Patrons consistently praise the high quality and freshness of the ingredients, particularly highlighting the juicy chicken, tender beef, crispy fries, and perfectly balanced garlic sauce. The falafels, made fresh to order, are frequently noted as being moist and flavorful, and many reviewers consider the house made ice cream an essential finish to the meal. While the restaurant is often very busy with long lines, the staff is consistently lauded for being professional, warm, and exceptionally friendly, contributing to an inviting and lively atmosphere. Although seating is limited and some guests find the portions small or the music loud, the combination of excellent food, affordable prices, and genuine hospitality makes Dunya a highly recommended destination for anyone seeking an authentic Middle Eastern dining experience.

The best Shawarma I've tried in Canada, made me reminisce home. Tried the beef, chicken & the falafel, all three were phenomenal. The Pistachio ice cream was also really good - I will definitely be recommending this place to anyone that's craving an authentic Lebanese experience. The staff were very friendly as well - thank you Dunya for the experience.

The Beef shawarma & the chicken shawarma were phenomenal. Very tasty. The falafel was ok, tasty but not the best. The fattoush is not fattoush at all: it didn't have the pomegranate molasses which is very essential to the authentic fattoush. Fries & garlic are spot on. The homemade ice tea peach was incredible.

We enjoyed the most delicious & authentic falafel sandwich we've experienced outside of Lebanon! The falafel was warm & crunchy, & the many flavors beautifully balanced. Loved the fresh mint & parsley! The owner & employees were very warm & inviting. They shared how they make their falafel & offered my friend ashta, which he'd never tried before. We highly recommend a visit to this shop, & can't wait to visit again in our next trip to Montreal!

As a frequent customer of Dunya, I've always enjoyed their delicious, authentic shawarma. However, my recent experience was disappointing. When I tried to order 10 sandwiches to pick up, I was told it was considered catering & couldn't be fulfilled on the spot. They also refused to accept an order of 4+ sandwiches in-store. If they can't handle such requests, they should reconsider their operations.

Went to try Dunya during the weekend & it was a blast. Their shawarma is the best in montreal. They serve it the authentic way. The fries were super crunchy. Everything was super fresh & the staff were very welcoming & accommodating. We were two people & we order 2 shawarmas each. & 1 was more than enough for a person. Generous portions. & the garlic sauce to sandwich ratio was perfect. Props to the team for not re-inventing the wheel & keeping the authentic Lebanese shawarma scene in montreal alive !

Outstanding & authentic lebanese food. Extra points for them accomodating my celiac by replacing pita with fries in my chicken plate. Great ownership & customer service.
