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.

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.

Ordered the Beef Shawarma, thé quality has gone bad. I tried it a couple of times when they first opened & it was very very good but lately the quality has gone downhill. Very disappointed!
Came in just for drinks because we were dying of thirst… ended up discovering their homemade peach iced tea & WOW, exactly what we needed 😋 So refreshing. Then somehow that turned into trying their ice cream (because obviously), & it was actually sooo good! Didn't even plan to eat here but 10/10 accidental stop 😂 Will definitely go back to try their Shawarma. The staff were really friendly, too.
Went at around 9:15 PM on Friday night. I wanted beef shawarma, but they were all out. I guess this happens; it was getting late. Decided to try chicken & falafel then; was told I would have to wait 20 minutes for chicken. I waited closer to 25-30 minutes. Arrived home, opened the bag: 2 falafels… what a deception. Furthermore, I thought the falafel was mid at best, no texture, no little crunchy, just mushy. Mint sauce & parsley take over & I can't really taste anything else. Huge deception for a place that has such a hype online.
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!
Exceptional shawarma, fries are loaded to the roof, absolutely recommend, staff is so nice they even gifted me an ice cream cuz somehow their machine'didnt work' trust me given the ice cream it did lol. Amazing place, best shawarma I've ever had.
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
