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.

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.
Great spot for shawarma & tasty boza (ice cream). The atmosphere & workers are very welcoming & generous. Chicken shawarma is much better than beef but both are great price & quality. The falafel are filling & made authentically.
As soon as you walk in you can feel that there's a high level energy. Sophia greeted me with a smile & was very helpful to walk me through the menu. Once you taste the chicken shawarma sandwich you will understand what the hype is all about. I even had their homemade Achta ice cream loaded with pistachio on top & it was absolutely delicious. Thanks to the owner Rami for welcoming me. Definitely recommend!

Le shawarma au poulet est absolument exquis! Beaucoup de sauce, la fraîcheur des ingrédients se devine dès la première bouchée, super savoureux. J'aime l'idée d'avoir ajouté quelques frites dans le sandwich, ce qui le rend encore plus gourmand & ajoute une belle texture. Service des plus chaleureux. Ambiance agréable, même la musique est bonne! Que du positif.
Honestly, great! It definitely tastes the most like the shawarmas in Lebanon among the places in Mtl. For the chicken, it has way too much toum though. I encourage to ask for half the quantity. Great job for the place!
great quick place to stop by for affordable shawarmas. the food is made very quickly as there are a lot of staff, & the quality of the food you get for such a low price is amazing.
it can be crowded sometimes & there aren't that many seats, take out is best.

This place is OUT IF THIS WORLD! I had 2 chicken shawarma sandwiches with fatouch salad & the ice cream! Been looking for such a shawarma sandwich for the past 21 years since i left Lebanon.
The garlic sauce…. WOW
Highly recommended
Habibi! Come to Dunya! Forget the boustan & other Shawarma's of Montreal. Dunya is the place. Serving some of the most accurate Shawarmas. Falafel & Flavors of Lebanon, this place stays true to their roots.
Also, can we just point out that the Chicken Shawarma is under 10$!

Absolutely delishhhhh! Shawarma poulet was juicy, filling & perfect 🤯 it took maybe 10min to get our order. We noticed it's cheaper to order to eat out instead of having it there, like $3 difference. Anyway, you must try this place 💗💗💗
shawarma boeuf juste incroyable🤍 shawarma poulet top pour ceux qui aiment l'ail🤍
salade fattouche & assaisonnement au top
bref menu simple mais efficace
vraiment une bonne adresse de shawarma à Montréal
I honestly felt like I was back home the moment I took my first bite!
The shawarma tasted exactly like the one we grew up eating, perfectly seasoned, juicy, & fries inside just right. It's so rare to find that true homemade Lebanese flavor… but they absolutely nailed it.
The fattouche was incredible: fresh, flavorful, & so authentic. It genuinely reminded me of my mom's homemade salad & they do the mixing on the spot!
We also had some falafel! Crunchy on the outside, soft & delicious on the inside. Simply perfect combination.
MUST ORDER THE FRIES!
The service was incredible & the girl on the cashier took her time to explain & was very patient with our picky order!
PS: didn't have time to take pictures as my kids started eating on the spot!
