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.

This place is a gem! Absolutely incredible food, prices, & service. Perfectly authentic Lebanese food, made with so much care, it's rare to see. We ordered two pita sandwiches & we're definitely coming back to try their plates.
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!
The service was very quick & easy to follow. The owner is clearly passionate about his business & puts lots of effort in not just the taste of his food but also the presentation of it. He treated my family & I with phenomenal hospitality which was extremely touching. He told us his story of him being an immigrant from Lebanon loving to make authentic yet unique Lebanese cuisine which all can enjoy. All the food was freshly prepared & served in about 20 minutes. The potatoes were seasoned immaculately with a perfect amount of salt, pepper, & other seasoning. Additionally, the shawarma & tawook wraps tasting great with only the best traditional Lebanese flavoring like garlic sauce & traditional Lebanese pickles. I would recommend this restaurant to anybody looking for affordable & amazing food for all. (Visited the restaurant on February 15, 2025)

Stumbled upon this shawarma place, Le Shawarman, the owner received us with a big smile , & great hospitality, it is Lebanese fast food, but a presentation of a luxury restaurant, & great flavours , fresh & tasty food , the complimentary ice cream Fiore De Latte is to die fo
Decent food & nice-looking plating of the meal when you dine-in. Definitely a bit tastier than the more popular Lebanese franchisees just around; but also fair to say tad bit pricier than them. Garlic sauce also pretty tasty with the plate meal; noticed it wasn't provided with the potatoes you get with trio along the pita sandwiches. Perhaps should've asked? Good to see an owner enthusiastic about his work tho.
An excellent Lebanese restaurant. It's a family-owned business. We had the saj beef shawarma trio & the soujok trio. They were both flavorful & juicy. The owner was generous & added a mixed shawema sandwich free of charge.

If you are hesitating to try this place, you need to stop right now & go. I had this spot saved as somewhere I wanted to try for a while now & I finally gave it a try & I'm kicking myself for not having come here sooner! Let's start with Pierre, the owner, what an amazing person, super friendly & someone who genuinely cares about his customers & the food he is serving them, just 👌! Second, the food, had a shish taouk SAJ sandwich & it was honestly & easily some of the best I've had. Full of flavor, juicy through & through & authentic Lebanese flavor! Will definitely come back to try other menu items! Third, the atmosphere. Very clean & cozy spot. Pierre is the cherry on top, makes you feel at home & special. Thank you Pierre for this wonderful experience, I will definitely be bringing my family next time!
Best Lebanese restaurant, I've ordered from main dish the Mix Shawarma poulets & boeuf, I've truly enjoyed the dish, Cooked properly & prepared very nicely. The meat tasted very good & was tender. I recommend this place to everyone!

Wonderful service. Amazing plating. My wife wanted some ketchup but the owner of the restaurant convinced her that their Lebanese sauces were exquisite, & they were. Great variety in the menu too.
Dropped in for lunch on way to airport & boy what a great surprise! Le Swarman is so warm & personable & the food is legit authentic Lebanese! The kibbe was on point. The sandwiches were great. Felt like we were in the middle of Zahlé. So yummy.
Amazing service, I was the only customer late at night & I was treated like family! The food is delicious, especially the seasoned potatoes & the garlic sauce. I have eaten in all the main lebanese fast food branda before, but none comes close to this level of authentic flavour. Definitely recommended!!!
