Shawarmaz is described as a place where the shawarma is consistently flavorful with tender meat, fresh ingredients and generous portions, and where saj or pita bread adds a traditional touch. The garlic sauce is frequently praised, and many reviews note that the bowls, poutines and wraps deliver good value for the price. Service is repeatedly highlighted as fast, friendly and attentive, with a welcoming atmosphere that suits solo meals, group outings or late night bites. The halal option and a casual vibe contribute to the appeal, and several reviewers cite repeat visits and strong recommendations for the mix of shish taouk, chicken and beef shawarma. While the lines can be long during peak hours and a few comments mention occasional inconsistencies like drier meat, changes to portions, or order issues with sauces or accessibility, the overall sentiment is strongly positive. Shawarmaz is seen as a standout shawarma spot in the area, known for consistent quality, generous servings and reliable service that keeps people coming back.
Honestly one of the best shawarma spots on the North Shore. Shawarmaz Cure Labelle never disappoints - the chicken is always juicy, well seasoned, & the portions are super generous. The garlic sauce is fireeee & everything tastes fresh every time I go.
Service is fast even when it's busy, & the staff are friendly & welcoming. It's become my go-to place when I'm craving a good shawarma or late-night comfort food.
Ordered on Uber Eats for the first time. I've paid extra 4$ for a custom bowl & asked for just rice & potatoes. I didn't want any of the salad. Guess what, they gave me half a bowl of salad. I paid extra & they still prep the wrong order. Similarly to other reviews, they seem to not read your requests… This was my first time & last time ordering from here. Also, their potatoes don't really have much taste. So much for garlic potatoes. Chicken was so dry.

Very disappointed with what I received today. I sent my daughter to pick up a chicken shawarma bowl. When she got home, I noticed that the dish was completely dry, with no sauce at all. I asked her if they had given her any, & she said no. I didn't tell her to specifically ask for sauce because they always include it on the side - which makes sense, since it's impossible to eat this dry. I then called the restaurant, & they told me they no longer provide sauce. If they want to charge extra for sauces, that's fine, but at the very least they should ask the customer if they would like sauce & inform them that it comes at an additional cost. Don't just send customers home with a dry dish.
After not being in the city for 2 years, I finally returned to my FAVOURITE shawarma place. It was the best place to get a shawarma. The quality is still acceptable - but I want to tell you that the quality of the meat has really fallen. It's missing the "meat" flavour & is quite salty & overspiced. Not sure if you're aware, hopefully this reaches someone & they fix whatever it is that changed back to how it was. I will be ordering again still. The shawarma sandwiches are still pretty decent, it's just disappointing because they used to be amazing every single time. won't be ordering the meat one though, just chicken. Beef was crazy dry - like it was dehydrated in the sun for a while before being cooked.
Couldn't be happier eating in Montreal & Laval at Shawarmas on Curé-Labelle, & after trying other restaurants in the area I concluded that they are the best. I strongly recommend them, their sandwich is very tasty as are their plates (meat & chicken), full of tender meat & vegetables, very well seasoned & perfectly cooked. Seating is good & comfortable. Ate there multiple times with my family & purchased large meal to-go, & they are consistently great & exeeded my expectations. Friendly staff & they serve excellent quality meals.
Generous portions, however, dunking the bread in a pool of stagnant rancid oil ruins the flavour of the sandwich & shredding the chicken instead of slicing it doesn't help either.
Their shawarma hits the spot! It's so good. The food is always fresh, & the service is friendly & fast. Even when it's packed, which is often even at midnight, they manage to serve quickly! I love both their meat & chicken options. They always get the ingredients right, which is awesome, & the portion sizes are very generous. I crave it all the time! Highly recommend this location from my experience!

It's unfortunate because i am a huge fan of the place & went so many times but this time the quality of the meat was not good at all i took a mix poutine the chicken was good but the meat had a smell & a texture that was not what we are use to. We didn't even finish it & for 25 $ it was definitely not worth it this time. Let's hope it was only a one time thing because usually it is so delicious!!
The food here is incredible! Ordered the "Shawarmaz Magique" poutine with chicken, they are very generous with their toppings. Everything was delicious & the chicken is of good quality! There was a lot of people when we went (during the weekday after 6pm), but the staff was very efficient with all of the orders despite this. Kudos to them! The environment is very lively. Will definitely come back 😊
I've had my fair share of taboule from various restaurants & none of them compare to the one I've had from here. It's always fresh, full of that lemony flavor & I love how there's bits of lemon pieces. It's the best taboule I've had. I've also tried the mixed shawarma plate along with the chicken saj sandwich & both were equally delicious. Full of flavor & generous portions. The place can be pretty busy at times, but the service moves along at a steady pace & I will say it's worth waiting especially for the delicious food that they serve.

Food is not comparable to a real Lebanese Shawarma. The tastes are just not there. It's like eating meat or chicken with a bunch of other things that don't add up anything special. To all non middle Eastern, don't be fooled ! This is not the real Shawarma. Service was good though.
I order the chicken shawarma plate with a few salads & potatoes.. I get at the cash & the cashier tells me that the salad is extra as I had to take the rice which I never took in the past... So she charged me 1.30$ more... Now on to the food.. The quality of the food has gone down drastically... The salad was bland & had no dressing... For 21$ it wasn't worth what I paid for... I used to be a regular here.. Won't be going back after this bad experience & the cashier was rude & didn't care even after I said this is the last time I'm coming here... If I did that to my customers at my work I'd get fired...
