Shawarmaz has honestly become a must-stop for me anytime I'm passing through Montreal on the way to Quebec City. At this point, I'll make a stop in Montreal specifically just to eat here.

Every visit reminds me why this place stands out. The quality of the ingredients, the attention to detail, & the flavor in everything they serve are consistently amazing. It's honestly impressive that even as the restaurant has expanded over the years, the quality has remained just as high.

The biggest highlights for me are definitely the shawarma baguette - which is incredibly hard to find in the Greater Toronto Area - & the shawarma poutine. The poutine is absolutely unreal: rich, cheesy, flavorful, & generously loaded with toppings. They definitely do not cheap out on ingredients here.

I also tried the flavored beef donair, which was delicious & packed with flavor. Everything tastes fresh, authentic, & made with care.

I'll definitely keep coming back for years to come, & I'm already looking forward to my next trip to Montreal just to visit Shawarmaz again. Huge fan of this place. Thanks to the entire team for the amazing food & consistently great experience!

J'aime beaucoup leur nourriture ainsi que leur service. Mais je préfère me faire livrer de chez eux, plutôt que de manger sur place. Les tables sont juste à côté du comptoir & le bruit de service, commandes en ligne etc n'est pas agréable.

Honestly, the best shawarma I've had in Canada. The taste feels just like back home-very authentic. Hope you open in Toronto someday. 😋

Great delicious food, we tried the magic routine but I forgot to take a before picture. I am posting the after picture. We also had Philly bomb & a chicken shawarma. They were all good & we enjoyed. They are also open late so we went late at night & loved the food. Worker was very helpful & helped us with our food.
