Overall, reviews describe Dunya as one of the best shawarma spots in Montreal with authentic Lebanese flavor, a simple but high quality menu, and very reasonable prices. The chicken shawarma is consistently juicy and well seasoned, the beef shawarma earns praise for depth of flavor, and the garlic toum sauce is a standout. The falafel is often called the best in town, and the fattoush and fresh sides are regularly praised. Fries are crispy and the homemade sauces and dips are a highlight, with ice cream and peach iced tea winning fans as well. The atmosphere is cozy and clean, with friendly, attentive staff and a welcoming vibe that makes it feel like home. Some notes mention occasional order mix ups with delivery and limited seating, and a few people found portions lighter or the chicken a touch salty, but the overall experience remains reliable and consistently delicious. Dunya is a go to for takeout or dine in for authentic Lebanese shawarma in Montreal.
Great spot for shawarma & tasty boza (ice cream). The atmosphere & workers are very welcoming & generous. Chicken shawarma is much better than beef but both are great price & quality. The falafel are filling & made authentically.
As soon as you walk in you can feel that there's a high level energy. Sophia greeted me with a smile & was very helpful to walk me through the menu. Once you taste the chicken shawarma sandwich you will understand what the hype is all about. I even had their homemade Achta ice cream loaded with pistachio on top & it was absolutely delicious. Thanks to the owner Rami for welcoming me. Definitely recommend!

This restaurant epitomizes the Lebanese experience. I feel at home here. The food is phenomenal (especially the chicken shawerma), the people are amazing & the atmosphere is always so cool. By far the best shawerma restaurant in the city. It's a must visit!
Honestly, great! It definitely tastes the most like the shawarmas in Lebanon among the places in Mtl. For the chicken, it has way too much toum though. I encourage to ask for half the quantity. Great job for the place!
This place is OUT IF THIS WORLD! I had 2 chicken shawarma sandwiches with fatouch salad & the ice cream! Been looking for such a shawarma sandwich for the past 21 years since i left Lebanon.
The garlic sauce…. WOW
Highly recommended
Habibi! Come to Dunya! Forget the boustan & other Shawarma's of Montreal. Dunya is the place. Serving some of the most accurate Shawarmas. Falafel & Flavors of Lebanon, this place stays true to their roots.
Also, can we just point out that the Chicken Shawarma is under 10$!
Best shawarma restaurant in Montreal. Every bite of the chicken shawarma is an explosion of flavor, the staff is very welcoming & professional, & the atmosphere & music are great as well. Must try restaurant in Montreal.
Unfortunately, my sandwich was incredibly disappointing. It was so small with very little Chicken, few fries & I took 4 bites before finding a pickle. I looked at other pictures of the chicken sandwich, full. That's not what I got. The toum sauce was delicious
The only authentic lebanese shawarma place in Montréal. The beef, chicken & even falafel sandwiches are made to perfection with the proper ingredients & spices. Definitely reminds me of home. I have been going back on a weekly basis since I discovered it. Can get busy but they're very efficient. Keep it up.

Dunya is hands down the best shawarma spot in Montreal. It honestly reminds me of the kind you find across the Levant, simple, authentic, & full of flavor. The chicken is always juicy, the fries are perfectly crisp, the pickles add just the right amount of tang, & the toum is exactly how it should be. No unnecessary extras, no overcomplication, just a classic, perfectly delicious shawarma that hits every time.
Tried the chicken shawarma pita at & it was excellent. You know it's going to be great when the first bite has French fries right inside the pita. The sauce, chicken, & fresh ingredients are perfectly balanced.
The place is small, so it's best for takeout or a quick stop with a small group. Definitely a solid spot for a delicious shawarma pita!
Hands down the best & most authentic Lebanese shawarma in Montreal. Both the beef & the chicken meat are very well seasoned & very juicy & tender, & they really nailed the fixings inside both sandwiches.
