Review Summary

Reviews paint Dunya as a go-to for authentic Lebanese shawarma and falafel, with juicy chicken and beef shawarma, crispy fries, fresh fattoush, and house made toum, plus beloved peach iced tea and ashta ice cream at affordable prices. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff are friendly and attentive, making dining in or takeout feel easy and enjoyable. People praise quick service, good value, and consistent flavors that remind them of home, even as the venue can get crowded and seating is limited. Occasional notes include delivery mixups or small wraps, but these are outweighed by praise for quality, authenticity, and the overall experience.

I ordered 10 sandwiches - the beef & falafel were quite good, but the chicken was too greasy & didn't taste as fresh as I had hoped. Overall, the quality was mixed.

Excellent shawarma. By far the best shawarma till now. Authentic taste, fresh ingredients. The owner made an exception for us & gave all ingredients separately so that we can have it after 6-7 hours. Please come to Toronto & smash the shawarma market 🤟🏽🤟🏽🔥

Super fresh & tasty shawarma & shishtaouk ! Our favourite in Montreal by far. Try their ice tea as well. Fast service & staff is friendly.

Hands down the BEST falafel in Montreal! The first bite took me back to my falafel experience in Lebanon. It's simply perfect, the ingredients are all fresh & tasty. I also had the shawarma sandwich as well which was really good but you can get good shawarma in Montreal. However, their falafel is in a league of its own. The fries was also very good. Highly recommended for anyone that wants to have a real falafel sandwich!

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!

A true restaurant oasis in terms of quality, taste, value, friendliness & vibe. Our quick Lebanese lunch of fallafal & fries wound up being the highlite of our trip to Montreal, we are still talking about how I felt actual tingles up & down my spine biting into a perfect fallafal with distinct crunch, juicy tomatoes, marinated turnip & fresh mint leaves. Cannot recommend anything more highly.

Got the beef shawarma, fattoush salad & a falafel! Everything was super fresh! Meat was tender, the salad was bright & the falafel was crispy on the outside & tender on the inside!

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 !

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!

This must be the best shawarma, falafel, home-made iced tea, & ashta ice cream that I ever had in Canada! It's fresh & flavorful. Above all, the service & staff are welcoming & kind. I loved the experience & I would love to be a regular customer of this place. Very highly recommended!
