About

Shawarmaz specializes in authentic Levantine street food centered on high-quality proteins prepared using traditional vertical rotisserie techniques. The menu focuses on thinly sliced chicken and beef shawarma served within freshly baked pita bread or as substantial platter components. Each serving incorporates a selection of crisp, seasonal vegetables and house-made sauces that balance the rich, savory profile of the seasoned meats. Diners find a consistent emphasis on bold spice profiles and grilled textures that define this particular culinary tradition. Beyond the signature sandwiches, the kitchen prepares a variety of garden-fresh salads that provide a lighter accompaniment to the protein-forward offerings. The dining space maintains a streamlined layout designed for efficiency and rapid service. This establishment delivers a precise and focused menu that highlights classic Mediterranean flavors through careful preparation and standard ingredient sourcing.

My least favorite shawarma place in Montreal. Rice tasted old & chicken was dry & hard. Beef & sauces were very good. Think I may have caught them at a bad time. (2:00 pm). Basha Jean Talon is much fresher at a much lower price.

They got the wrong order & quickly compensated it. Impeccable services. Beef & or chicken shwarmas are good. Small but clean & safe place to eat. Will come back

The food here used to be amazing - especially the plates of shawarma/beef, sides, & sauce & pita…But now on Uber Eats they've completely removed the plates & only offer'bowls.'

Honestly, it sucks. A bowl is just all the ingredients smashed together, no pita, no side sauce, less food - but the price is still the same. It feels like you're paying more for less, & the quality of the experience is gone.

Please bring back the plates!

La nourriture ici était excellente - surtout les assiettes avec pita, accompagnements & sauce. Mais maintenant, sur Uber Eats, ils ont complètement enlevé les assiettes & offrent seulement des « bols ».

Franchement, c'est décevant. Un bol, c'est juste tous les ingrédients mélangés ensemble, pas de pita, pas de sauce à côté, moins de nourriture - mais le prix reste le même. On a l'impression de payer plus pour moins, & l'expérience n'est plus la même.

Ramenez les assiettes, s'il vous plaît !

I've lived in Montreal forever & tried every comparable restaurant, & the beef saj is the best shawarma wrap I've ever had.

The night staff at this location is incredible & deserves a big raise. It's remains my favourite meal even with all of the food festivals & options around.

Came from Calgary to try this place. Heard good things. Was so mediocre. Poutine tasted bitter near the end. The beef was more crispy than the potatoes The gravy was watery & runny. Also service wasn't great either. Cashier was dismissive, acted as if we weren't customers.
