I tried Shawarmaz's new sourdough sandwiches, & they're a fantastic addition to the menu! I had all four options: the beef shawarma, Bomb chicken shawarma, falafel, & lamb soujouk. Each sandwich had its own signature sauce that complemented the fillings really well. My favorites were the lamb soujouk with the cilantro lime sauce & the Bomb chicken shawarma with the dynamite sauce. The sourdough was fresh with a nice crisp exterior, & every sandwich was well balanced. Definitely a menu item I'll be ordering again!

Best chicken shawarma sandwich in MTL

I ordered a sandwich, & after it came off the grill, it fell onto the table ro the other side of assembly area. From what I saw, that surface didn't look clean enough, so I politely told the staff that I wasn't comfortable eating it.
Instead of understanding my concern, the cashier & several other staff members seemed annoyed & responded rudely. I simply asked for a refund & left, but they continued to give me attitude throughout the interaction. I was disappointed, as I felt my concern was reasonable & could have been handled much more professionally

Je suis un client qui commande régulièrement, aujourd'hui jai commandé sur place , après avoir payé l'employé me met mon sac de commande devant moi , moi je prend le sac sans vérifier & je part , arrivé chez moi je vois que les sandwich ne sont pas là & j'appelle pour vérifier on me dit que c'était à moi de vérifier le sac & que personne m'a dit de prendre le sac & que c'est de ma faute , je demande c'est quoi la solution mtn on me dit repasse au magasin sachant que je reste à 15min de la driving , vue qu'elle n'avait pas d'autre solution ni de remboursement impossible que je reparte so je commande une salade sur ubereat & je les rappel pour leur demander de mettre les deux sandwich ( nouveaux ) vue que sa faisait presque 1h entre mon appel & le temps de recevoir la commande , & j'ai parlé à l'employé responsable soit-disant manager de la place qui disait qu'il allait en parler au boss pour qu'il s'assure de me mettre deux nouveau sandwich & non ceux que j'avais commandé Je m'attendais à recevoir un sandwich frais , mais malheureusement c'est ce qu'il a fait il m'a envoyé celui qu'elle avait oublié de me mettre dans le sac (1h15 entre ma commander sur place & la réception de mon sandwich) aucun professionnalisme si de la part du soit disant gérant ni du propriétaire , biensur je ne pense pas m'arrête à juste un commentaire.
