Review Summary

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.

The shawerma chicken was great-juicy & flavorful-the meat was just okay. The falafel was disappointing, & the fries were bland. The real issue, though, was the staff & the wait-about 35 minutes! The staff was slow, disorganized, & seemed clueless about optimizing orders. At a point i was willing to hand them a 5$ to get a smile.

The guys at Dunia are doing it right! Their beef shawarma is to die for.. juicy tender, flavorful, & exactly how you expect it; Lebanon's best version of Shawarma. The chicken is excellent also & the felafel is very good but a tiny bit dense. It could use some lightness. It's a very nice lively vibe, & the service is excellent & the value for the food is amazing. I recommend everyone to try this gem of a place.

The most authentic shawarma i have tasted in Montreal YUMMY❤️ Juicy chicken with garlic . Savoury beef with fresh vegies. Fries are succulant . The falafel took me back to my childhood. As for the creme glacée delicious: ashta pistachio is a must . Friendly staff too 😍❤️😍BRAVO .

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

One of the best shawarma in montreal. As close as you can get to the ones you would eat in Lebanon. I tried the beef & the chicken shawarmas both are super tasty. You can taste the meat is fresh. Flavours are just right. Their homemade iced tea is also really good! I crave it all the time now!
