Restaurant Shawarmaz offers a variety of high quality Mediterranean dishes. We are known for our succulent Shawarmas, delicious Shish Taouk, as well as our famous Sushi Shawarmas.
Shawarmaz receives broad praise for delicious, fresh and flavorful shawarma with generous portions and good value, and for friendly, efficient service that many describe as excellent. Reviewers often call it one of the best shawarmas in Montreal and note consistently high quality across visits, with dishes that are well balanced and thoughtfully prepared. Some feedback highlights the welcoming staff and clean, organized setup, while a few reviews point to downsides such as greasiness, occasional inconsistency in portions, and ventilation issues; a rare report mentioned a quality problem. Overall, Shawarmaz is seen as a top choice for fans of Middle Eastern cuisine in the area and a reliable option for families, with strong recommendations to try and return.
On a fait la fête de ma fille à cette adresse. On a pris un plateau de sushi avec des boissons, c'était très bon! Le service est excellent & les propriétaires sont tres serviables. Les enfants se sont bien amusés! Une adresse à recommander!
LOVE this shawarma!!! I have you get it every time I'm in Canada 🇨🇦 the shawarma is 15 out of 10. The poutine has a nice twist of flavors. Everything is always fresh & delicious- highly recommend!

Top-tier shawarma spot. The food is consistently on point, full of flavor, & clearly made with care. You can tell they really know their food. The service is just as good as the food - fast, friendly, & professional.
Big shoutout to Wali & Adnan, they're amazing & always make sure everything is perfect. Overall quality, service, & experience are all excellent.
Highly recommend - definitely one of the best shawarma places around.
Dropped by for a quick sandwich. Service by Wally & his crew was excellent. Service with a smile & super efficient. Had the Beef Shawarma Saj combo. Not cheap for $22 but was excellent. Good food & good service are keys to success that their competitors abandoned long ago. Hopefully they will stick to this winning formula & not go where others have sadly ventured. Recommended.
Restaurant très propre, le personnel est très sympathique, la bouffe est excellente & les prix sont bas pour la généreuse portion de viande qu'ils mettent dans les sandwiches. Je recommande pour un délicieux repas sur le pouce.

I've got the mix chicken & lamb shawarma on the pita, & it was made to perfection. Added the combo deal for any additional $6 & got a soda with fries. Everything was made fresh & on premises. Highly recommended for everyone visiting or living in Montreal.
Updating my previous review: I haven't visited other locations recently, but it's disappointing to witness the consistent decline in quality at the West Island location. There are now many better options available in the area. ______________________________ I have tried Shawarmaz in multiple locations - Laval, Vaudreuil, & now in the west island - & I must say, this place outshines every other Shawarma joint on the island. It is disappointing to think about other places charging the same price while offering anything less than the exceptional quality found here. Shawarmaz is not the type of place that simply stuffs lettuce & cabbage with a small amount of meat. They understand that Shawarma is all about the meat, & they have truly mastered it. From the superb meat quality to the perfectly balanced seasoning, & the ideal ratio of meat to condiments, Shawarmaz has thought of every detail. While it can be challenging for any Shawarma restaurant to fully replicate the exact Middle Eastern experience due to the unavailability of lamb tail fat in the Canadian market (which provides a unique flavor to Shawarma), Shawarmaz manages to replicate to a great degree almost the same experience you would have on the streets of Damascus or Beirut. I am thoroughly impressed with Shawarmaz & highly recommend it for anyone looking for an authentic & delicious Shawarma experience.
Une véritable expérience culinaire afghane ! J'ai eu la chance de découvrir ce restaurant, & je suis ravi de l'avoir fait. Dès que vous entrez, vous êtes accueilli par une ambiance chaleureuse & authentique, avec une décoration qui transporte directement en Afghanistan. La nourriture est absolument délicieuse. Chaque plat regorge de saveurs complexes & parfaitement équilibrées. Le kabuli palaw était exceptionnel, avec du riz parfumé, des épices subtiles, & une touche sucrée grâce aux raisins secs & aux carottes. Les mantous (raviolis afghans) étaient un délice fondant en bouche, & les brochettes étaient tendres, juteuses & savamment grillées. Le service était impeccable : souriant, attentif & prêt à expliquer chaque plat pour ceux qui ne sont pas familiers avec la cuisine afghane. C'est une adresse incontournable pour les amateurs de gastronomie & ceux qui veulent découvrir une cuisine unique & pleine d'histoire. Je recommande sans hésiter ce restaurant & je suis impatient d'y retourner pour essayer d'autres plats.
