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!
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.
Some of the best Lebanese food I've ever had. The falafel wrap (especially the spicy version) is an absolute delight with its mix of veggies & herbs, & so is the chicken shawarma with its delicious toum. My new go-to place in Montreal for a tasty meal at a great price. Couldn't recommend enough!
Dunya fait sans doute partie des meilleures adresses de Montréal pour savourer un vrai sandwich chawarma. La chawarma est parfaitement assaisonnée & savoureuse, les frites sont croustillantes à souhait, & la sauce toum est authentique exactement comme elle doit être.
L'endroit est propre, agréable & idéal pour partager un repas décontracté. Le personnel est toujours souriant, accueillant & serviable, ce qui rend l'expérience encore plus plaisante.
Une adresse que je recommande sans hésitation à tous les amateurs de chawarma !

Quoi dire bonheur bonheur bonheur , c'est tellement bon, j'ai adoré mon expérience, c'est à recommander 10000%, de loin le meilleur en ce moment à Montréal.
I was visiting from elsewhere & was recommended this place. The staff here is so friendly! I tried the falafel wrap & their homemade ice cream - both incredibly fresh & delicious. Will definitely be coming back when I visit the city again.

visite effectuée ce midi. Un accueil chaleureux du personnel notamment de la jeune personne de l'accueil très souriante & super sympa ; la shawarma poulet est délicieuse accompagnée de la sauce ranch. Je recommande
Just ate here & had the best service! The food is delicious (the fattoush salad & the ice cream were unreal) & it's a real vibe. Could not recommend enough.
Loooove this place, great authentic Lebanese shawarma. The design, branding & vibe is on point. Finish it off with their homemade ice-cream. Highly recommend!

Dunya is a Middle Eastern restaurant that offers shawarma & falafel on its menu. The staff is welcoming. We ordered a falafel plate & falafel sandwich & we really enjoyed. Absolutely the best falafel in town. Homemade ice cream. The food is very affordable & delicious! Highly recommend.
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.
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.
