Absolutely delicious! Price is very fair for what you get & how good it is. Their falafels are legit. The shawarmas are also top notch. Fries & ice cream are stand outs as well. Staff are friendly & efficient. Excellent experience!View more

Amateurs de cuisine libanaise, j'ai mangé le pire sandwich shawarma dans ce restaurant :(
La viande trop cuite, sec, difficile à mâcher. Pas de pickles dans le sandwich, que des tomates. La salade fattouche trop vinaigrée.
Bref ce qui a été sensé être un moment de plaisir s'est transformé en cauchemar
Les 2* pour le service.View more

I don't say this lightly, the best Shawarma I've ever had. The ingredients, the knowledge, the love - it's all there. Michael & the rest of the crew were extremely kind & welcoming. The spicy beef shawarma with fries inside is my favorite. The falafel, homemade sauces, & the fries were all amazing. A lot of love & care in everything. The homemade iced tea is perfect.Coming back whenever I'm in Montreal.View more

I've tried the chicken shawarma, beef shawarma, fries, & falafel plate-pretty much everything on the menu-& every item has been delicious! Plus, the prices are very reasonable.View more
Lynn
Great experience! Loved the food-I tried the falafel, beef, & chicken shawarma, & the chicken was my favorite. As a Lebanese, I can say the chicken shawarma is a must-try-it tastes just like the ones back home! Plus, the prices are super affordable-you can get a side of fries for just $3 & a Fattoush salad for $4. Definitely worth it!View more

Best shawarma in Montreal, better than most places in Beirut tooView more
Mak'occino
Old school shawarma, like the one from back home. No unnecessary stuffings like lettuce to make it seem larger than it is. The beef & chicken are tender & grilled to perfection. The garlic sauce tastes like garlic, as it should. Reasonably priced in today's economy.View more
Simon
Thank god there's a shawarma place like this in the area nowView more
Naji
Finally a real Lebanese shawarma in Montreal…me & my wife tried the meat & the chicken shawarma as well as the falafel , & everything was delicious! I'm so happy!View more

Don't waste your time going elsewhere, if you eat here you will not eat shawarma beef or chicken anywhere else.View more
Ranya
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!View more

Il est midi moins cinq. Un froid mordant a élu domicile à Montréal donc on presse le pas. La fine couche de neige déposée la veille sur les trottoirs s'est transformée en gadoue salissante pour nos bas de pantalons. Le ciel est gris, les bâtiments sont gris, la route est gris foncé, la neige est blanche, les manteaux sont noirs, les poteaux sont noirs, on se croirait dans les années 50 alors que la couleur n'existait pas. Du moins, c'est ce que montrent les films de cette époque. La porte du Dunya est verrouillée - le commerce ouvre à midi -, mais une âme charitable nous repère & nous fait entrer tout en nous indiquant que la cuisine n'est pas encore prête. K. & moi serons les premiers clients ; nous avons bien fait d'arriver à l'avance ! La popularité de ce nouveau repère libanais modestement décoré & esthétiquement aéré est manifeste alors qu'un flot continu de gourmands bravent le froid & s'y engouffrent le temps d'un shawarma. D'ailleurs, les places assises sont limitées & plusieurs optent pour la commande pour emporter. La caissière au bras étoilé d'encre s'installe derrière le comptoir & nous fait savoir que le service est en branle. Je remarque avec satisfaction que le menu est très court : deux shawarma (boeuf ou poulet), un type de falafel, des frites, une salade & un choix de six sauces maison, dont la Dunya-hot pour mettre un peu de piquant à votre vie, la ranch, la tarator, la toum, la shatta... La jeune fille au tablier & à la raie centrale nous explique qu'à deux, il pourrait y avoir moyen de goûter un peu à tout. Que de mots doux à mes oreilles ! « D'accord ! On va prendre tout le menu. » K. me regarde avec des yeux ronds signifiant : « tu es fou ou quoi ? J'essaie d'économiser, moi ». Moi, je rajoute : « avec un thé glacé ! » Ses yeux s'agrandissent comme Jupiter. Total de la facture : 30 $. « Oh. » Ses yeux retournent à la forme de la Terre… … jusqu'à la première morsure dans les frites à la chair tendre & au croquant parfait : Neptune. … jusqu'à la première morsure dans le shawarma au boeuf, juteux de sauce tarator, avec un pain au parfum de charbon de bois : revoilà Jupiter. Un repas à si petit prix n'aura rarement eu si bon goût ! On en redemanderait, mais avec les falafels (savoureux, croquants & condensés) & le shawarma au poulet (excellent, mais dans l'ensemble un peu plus sec), on est repus. Il ne nous reste plus qu'à siroter à deux notre désaltérant thé glacé maison alors qu'on poursuit notre conversation. À 12 h 45, il nous faut déjà quitter le local, mais non sans remercier chaudement le chef & son personnel. On se reverra sûrement bientôt pour un autre de ces sublimes shawarmas, peut-être avec une portion supplémentaire de ces frites irrésistibles avalées comme une comète !View more

Excellent chicken shawarma, just a warning the toum was very garlickyView more
Wael
The best Shawarma I've tried in Canada, made me reminisce home. Tried the beef, chicken & the falafel, all three were phenomenal. The Pistachio ice cream was also really good - I will definitely be recommending this place to anyone that's craving an authentic Lebanese experience. The staff were very friendly as well - thank you Dunya for the experience.View more
Sarah
The Beef shawarma & the chicken shawarma were phenomenal. Very tasty. The falafel was ok, tasty but not the best. The fattoush is not fattoush at all: it didn't have the pomegranate molasses which is very essential to the authentic fattoush. Fries & garlic are spot on. The homemade ice tea peach was incredible.View more
Joshua
I wish hummus was on the menu, otherwise solid beef shawarma with tahini sauce & their housemade spicy sauce.View more
Emil
This is truly the best shawarma I've ever had, & trust me I tried a lot. Chicken shawarma with no freaking tomatoes or cucumbers like in other places, everything inside is pickled like it should be. The garlic sauce is to die for, yet you can still kiss your girlfriend afterwards with no weird smells, if you know you know & just 9$ which is a steel in this economy!View more
Alana
Everything was sooo delicious! We had the chicken Shawarma, fattouche salad, fries, ice cream, & the star of the show the Falafel plate (gluten free!). The prices are so affordable & staff are lovely!View more

Until today I was thinking there is no good shawarma in Montreal. I was so wrong. So delicious.View more

My new favourite spot! The falafel & beef shawarma remind me of food back in Lebanon/ Dubai. I'm craving them while typing this review 15/10 would come againView more

As a frequent customer of Dunya, I've always enjoyed their delicious, authentic shawarma. However, my recent experience was disappointing. When I tried to order 10 sandwiches to pick up, I was told it was considered catering & couldn't be fulfilled on the spot. They also refused to accept an order of 4+ sandwiches in-store. If they can't handle such requests, they should reconsider their operations.View more
