Welcome to Dunya, a cozy spot at the corner of Sherbrooke and Saint Laurent in Montreal. We serve up simple, delicious shawarma and falafel, made with care and consistency, just like back home with a touch of modern flair. Our goal is to offer tasty, affordable meals that everyone can enjoy, whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down with friends. We can’t wait to share our love for good food with you. Come by and say hello!
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.
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 🤟🏽🤟🏽🔥
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 !
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 .

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!
The place is really nice it's very clean fresh veggies good quality ingredients the toum is strong but not overly powering ten ten new shawarma spot I hope it stays nice
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!
