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.

Easily turned out to be the best falafel I've had in a while 🤗 freshly fried on order & served with several fresh condiments. Service was nice, polite & helpful. Highly recommended.

They have several vegan sauces such as tahini & hummus.

It's past midnight on a school night. This is one of the very few places open to get food. Expectations were low. But the three gentlemen behind the counter turned our fast food into a fine dining experience. The ingredients were fresh & personalised recommendations were offered. The service was warm, polite & respectful. Oh & the food was amazing!
