I truly don't understand how this place gets any positive reviews… The saj chicken sandwich & mixed shawarma plate were less flavourful than what you can get at basic chains like Amir. Meat was dry, potatoes were undercooked & portions were underwhelming. So many other great Shawarma places all around town, go literally anywhere else if you're craving good Lebanese food.

I was warmly welcomed by the owner. I had the chicken shawarma trio & it's was delicious. I never had anything like it. The food was authentic, service was authentic. Quality, service & experience is what you can find at this restaurant! Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.
We had the absolute best taouk plate & shawarma plate at Le Shawarma. The chicken was moist & the beef was so flavorful. The garlic sauce was perfect, so creamy & just the right amount of garlic. The salad was fresh & the pickled vegetables were delicious. The restaurant is spotless. We had the honor of talking with Peter, the owner. He is a gentleman & an accomplished businessman. We highly recommend you stop in & treat yourself to a delicious meal.
Chicken & beef Saj shawarma was delicious! A must try food spot in Laval. The owner Pierre was super friendly & personally prepares the sandwich to your liking. Excellent service!
The food was good. The owner was super friendly. I have only one comment the chicken pita I got could have had more meat, I find there wasn't enough meat. Tasted good. I'd go again.
We had the saj chicken shawarma & the saj meat shawarma. It was amazing! A true Lebanese shawarma. The owner is super welcoming & proud of the taste & quality he offers & he is totally right to be so. Great food!
We had the saj sandwich with the trio. It was absolutely delicious, the garlic sauce was delicious & not too overwhelming, you can tell it's made with fresh ingredients & not garlic powder. The chicken was juicy & well seasoned. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very enjoyable & the owner was nothing but nice & welcoming. If you're ever in Laval & craving delicious middle eastern food, definitely check it out
We were there for a late lunch. We ordered the chicken & mixed shawarma plate & fillet mignon plate. Portions are a bit small compared to the price. Garlic sauce lacked garlic flavour. Pita bread was too crunchy. The spicy pita was very good. Beans in the salad didn't really go with the rest of the food. Fillet mignon plate only had four pieces of meat. It was not easy to eat from the wooden board. They only had fork to eat. Drinks were way too expensive 3 dollars for a bottle of water or a soda can. Overall, it was ok but a lot of room for improvement.
First time eating there & the owner was super nice & friendly. He was closing up his restaurant due to lack of staffing & I came in a little last minute & he still cooked the food I wanted. The chicken pita was very good. It could've used a little more chicken but everything tasted good, potatoes & garlic sauce was amazing. Awesome little place. I'm glad I discovered it. It beats most shish taouk places around Laval.
Traveling from the U.S. First time experience here, but will not be last. Beautiful welcoming restaurant. Food & flavor are top notch. Had both types shawarma, meat & chicken, regular bread & Saj bread. 5 stars aren't enough. All 100/100 score.
Pierre the owner is a very nice man - the chicken shwarma in saj bread is amazing! lots of garlic sauce & chunky chicken that is not fatty at all - & the way it's presented on the wooden slab is cool - but it's more a takeout place - definitely going back!
The food was amazing. I think the place highly improved since the first time we came & the food was delicious & the sauces were tasty. The popcorn chicken was so crispy & so were the potato balls. The food was even aesthetically pleasing & the shawarmas were probably the best part. If it is your first time, I definitely recommend the chicken shawarma. The cook who's name is Roy was friendly & started a conversation with us to keep us entertained. It was an amazing experience. Definitely not the last time we will be eating here!
