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 is widely praised for flavorful, fresh shawarma with generous portions and good value, and many reviewers say it’s among the best in Montreal with friendly, efficient service. The atmosphere is described as clean and organized, with consistent care in preparation and a strong emphasis on fresh ingredients and balanced flavors, and the staff is repeatedly cited as welcoming and helpful. Some reviews note the variety, the poutine twist, bowls, and Lebanese style flair, while a few point out downsides such as occasional greasiness, portion sizes not always meeting expectations for jumbo options, and inconsistency between visits, including ventilation or freshness issues. A number of families and regulars express loyalty and say they will return when in the area, and several reviewers strongly recommend Shawarmaz and encourage others to try it. Overall, the consensus is that Shawarmaz delivers delicious food, generous portions, and solid service, with room for improvement in consistency and some branch-specific issues.
Very bad experience !i throw all the food in the garbage ,the salad & the meat the chicken the potatos are discusting no one from my family coudn't eat it ! The taste were very bad ! Never ever ! & on top of it my grand daughter had a hair inside the food discusting & not fresh vegetables
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.
My husband & I decided we'd try Shawarmaz & we had no idea what to get. The minute we had come in the staff was friendly & inviting. We had asked for their recommendations & they were super helpful in helping us pick. We decided to get 2 sandwiches & share them. When we weren't sure if we wanted to add a sauce to one of our items, they gave us a sample of the Pomegranate sauce. I loved it, my husband wasn't a fan. The employee then said that he'd put it on half so that way we'd both get what we'd want. They even cut our sandwiches in half so we wouldn't need to do it at home.
Such incredible service & the food was equally incredible!
My 1st visit. I ordered 3 beef plates but my beef was dry & chewy. The portions were a bit small & I find food quality not as good as Basha. The food variety was good though.

I'm a big fan of Shawarmaz & have tried all the branches in Montreal-I really enjoy it overall. However, the quality at this particular branch is noticeably different from the others. I've had bad experiences twice now. The vegetables, like onions & turnips, were not only not fresh but had actually gone bad. The portions were also smaller, with less beef than usual, & the bread wasn't toasted properly either. Totally disappointed
So if you want to get middle Eastern food in Pointe Claire, it is possible that there's a limited choice of places & this is one of them easily accessible of sources Boulevard.
The food is quite good service is very friendly but the atmosphere is as remote from the middle East as can be. The local is totally sterile & bare, a complete turn off even buy today's limited understanding of aesthetics.
Unfortunately I'm not likely to go back however I do wish them good luck.
