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.
Best Shawarma in Montreal by far. I've had the chicken, I've had the beef, I've had the falafel, I've had the fries, I've had the peach tea, I've had the fattouche… I've basically had the whole menu & loved every single thing. Fresh ingredients, amazing flavours & sweet staff. They are always so busy but stay kind & get the food out quickly. I'd give 100 stars if I could.
Also, don't forget to end your meal with an ice cream, also amazing!
Really good chicken shawarma honestly!! The garlic sauce is also bomb. However, there's been times Ive visited in the afternoon & they have ran out of chicken. Also, not really a friendly place to dine in, better to take out, as it's always really busy & there aren't enough tables.
If you're looking for the best authentic shawarma in the Montreal area, Dunya is the place to go! The quality is outstanding, the flavors are rich & authentic, & you can taste the freshness in every bite.
Both the chicken shawarma & the beef/meat shawarma are absolutely perfectly seasoned, juicy, & cooked to perfection. The garlic sauce, fresh ingredients, & generous portions make the experience even better.
You can really tell they care about quality & authenticity. Friendly service, great atmosphere, & consistently delicious food every time. Highly recommended to anyone who loves real shawarma one of the best in Montreal!
Hit up Dunya tonight. Ordered enough shawarma + falafel to feed a small village… my kids still wiped it out.
Line was long, place was tight, but I got VIP parking right in front.
We ate on the benches & accidentally became Dunya's outdoor billboard.
People walked by like,'Damn, they're enjoying that.'
À mon avis, c'est le meilleur shawarma en ville & définitivement l'un des meilleurs que j'aie jamais goûté. Les ingrédients sont super frais, du pain jusqu'aux tomates. Les saveurs sont vraiment bien équilibrées. Les prix sont très abordables.

loveee!! the chicken shawarma is SO good. i normally like beef more but this time the chicken takes it for sure with its toppings/sauce. the fries are super crispy & nice too. very cute spot to grab a quick bite :)
Devrait renommer ses shawarmas en chewarmas tellement c'est caoutchouteux. J'ai pas pu terminer mon shawarma boeuf. C'était trop cuit & sec. Idem pour mon voisin de table qui est reparti après 2 bouchées. Très décevant!
A must eat in Montreal! It is hands down the most authentic & delicious shawarma, you'll ever have there. Inexpensive but high quality ingredients, the garlic sauce so fragrant, the sandwich served to you perfectly hot! Their iced teas are made in house & are just perfect to quench your thirst! The fries perfectly thin & crispy & the falafels are even a hit! Do not walk out of there without the soft serve.
Personally even the ambiance is a 10. Do not skip this stop if in Montreal!
Wow, what a great discovery, Dunya really impressed me. The place was packed, but everything ran smoothly & the service was great. I had the shawarma & it was super filling, packed with flavor, & honestly just really satisfying. The sauces were a standout too, sooooooo good. Definitely a spot I'd recommend & will be going back to.
