Tried the crispy Shawarma - was excellent! Super fresh, friendly staff, could not ask for better. I thought that parking lot would be a nightmare but parking was also easy to find. A+ experience!

Thank you Chris for your generosity and kind words, we appreciate you and we are glad the parking was not an issue today as Friday is probably the best day of the week regarding the parking :)

Had to try their viral crispy chicken sandwich and beat James to it for once. Was left pretty disappointed as there was zero crisp to the bite. Flavour was ok, chicken was fine, but a little bit salty to my liking. I fell for the hype unlike James ... That is why he wins.

A crispy shawarma is not a fried shawarma, the bread is crispy when we make it and its meant to be eaten on the spot, a fried shawarma ( not ours) is a fried pita with oil and stays crispy for a long time, thats not our way. Ours is grilled to get crispy and not fried. As for the saltiness, its not the chicken that is salty, Lebanese pickles are salty and thats what we use and thats unusual for people who never had a proper shawarma before.

A taste of Lebanon just a few minutes away! Not only because the food is delicious and fresh, but also because the service is friendly and warm just like back home. The crispy shawarmas are insane! Definitely worth a try!

Fantastic! Especially the "custom" sandwich. The chicken isn't dry and is seasoned perfectly, presentation is super, most importantly everything is fresh! Everyone needs to have the Saj sandwich. Go now! EDIT: get the crispy saj, trust me.

Zaytouni is a great spot. The chicken shawarma on saj bread made crispy is unreal. Super flavourful and crunchy on the outside/juicy inside. Definitely a must order. The owner is a super cool guy who will remember you on subsequent visits 👌

First time trying this place. The reviews are spot on. The crispy shawarma, was the best wrap I've had. The baklava is up there as well. Friendly service and quick, given the huge order they were working on.

Absolutely unreal 🤤🔥 We got the combo (pita, potatoes, and a drink) and it was fantastic from start to finish. Everything came out fresh, hot, and full of flavor. The wrap itself had that perfect golden crunch on the outside, but still soft and loaded inside. The meat was juicy, tender, and super well-seasoned… but the chicken?? WOW. So flavorful, perfectly cooked, and honestly one of the best I’ve had, not dry at all, just melt-in-your-mouth good 🤤👏 And the potatoes on the side were the perfect addition, crispy, seasoned just right, and so addictive. Every bite had the perfect mix, sauce, meat, and that slight char from the grill that just takes it to another level. You can tell everything is made fresh and with care. Messy? Yes. Worth it? 1000% 😍 Already thinking about when I’m coming back.

Wanted to love it, and although the food was good,the service, the experience, the customer service was horrible. Really dissapointed and will NEVER get food there again. For similar food, I would HIGHLY reccomend SARAB. Such beautiful, accommodating individuals!!

You are such a shitty person. Do you realize how giving stars work? If the food was a 4 stars and even if service was bad, you cant give 1 star. You are nothing but a miserable lady who is a pain in the arse and not even god can please. So enjoy your miserable life and stay clear from good people like us.

Absolutely the best Shawarma sandwich I’ve ever had. But if the food is not enough to keep you coming back the owner, Tony surely will be. He’s an absolute gem.

I didn't dine in, but the place was clean, and there was plenty of space. The crispy shawarma and shish taouk sandwiches were amazing, and the potatoes were fantastic. I will be back!

Ordered through Uber Eats. We tried the viral shawarma and found it overly sweet and not particularly noteworthy. The fattoush was disappointing, consisting mainly of cooked vegetables rather than the expected fresh components. The hummus was acceptable, but the baba ghanoush was very poor—runny in texture, resembling liquid yogurt, with an unpleasant taste. The tabbouleh was basic and unremarkable. Overall, this experience did not meet expectations, and we will not be ordering again.

One of the best Shawerma places in Mtl, I highly recommend this place. I had the crispy shawerma and it was really good the food was fresh and on point. The service was meticulous, even it is not a full service restaurant I was asked multiple time if everything is going well. Will for sure come back

I had an amazing experience at Zaytouni and it easily deserves 5 stars. I tried their crispy shish taouk trio sandwich combo (comes with potatoes and a drink for $18.95), and it was absolutely delicious. What really sets them apart is their “crispy” option — they grill the sandwich so the pita gets perfectly toasted and crunchy, which takes it to another level. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the texture from the crispy pita made every bite even better. But the real standout is their sauce — it has this unique taste thanks to their homemade pomegranate syrup, and it ties everything together so well. Overall, super satisfying meal, great quality, and definitely something I’ll be craving again. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!
