Damascus Shawarma
About This Spot
Stepping into Damascus Shawarma on Lasalle Boulevard is like discovering a quietly vibrant corner of Greater Sudbury that hums with warmth and genuine hospitality. The restaurant carries an inviting pace—not rushed, but alive with the steady rhythm of friendly exchanges and the comforting scents of spices and freshly prepared food. It’s the kind of place where the bustle of the day softens, and every detail, from the colorful pickles to the array of homemade sauces, feels thoughtfully curated to create a welcoming, unpretentious atmosphere.
This cozy spot brings the heart of Syrian and Middle Eastern cooking into sharp, delicious focus without overwhelming fanfare. There’s a sense of care that runs through every part of the experience—the skillful layering of flavors in a shawarma wrap, the lush garlic sauce that customers find themselves returning for, and the way fresh vegetables brighten each plate like a nod to seasons and tradition. It’s a place where meals are shared, flavors are savored slowly, and simple joys—like the warmth of a smile from the staff or a quiet moment enjoying a freshly baked treat—are meant to be noticed.
Whether you’re dropping by for a casual meal or a family gathering, Damascus Shawarma has a paced hospitality that invites you to linger and feel at home. The kindness of the team and the genuine connections they foster—small gestures that resonate beyond the food—make it a quietly treasured spot. It's as much about the people you meet as the food you taste, woven together in a way that turns a casual stop into a meaningful local discovery.

Me and my girlfriend went in and had a $50 gift certificate. The dining area was busy, it smelled great. The staff were very friendly and helpful as well as patient. The food was amazing, the best of its kind that I have had. Definitely will be going back. We also purchased some deserts and they are excellent. There were fresh veggies in the salad and the garlic sauce was tasty. Blown away, Im happy it was busy because this is a place the community needs to support.

While visiting Damascus I witnessed two younger boys enter the restaurant to say hello to the staff. As they were leaving, presumably the owner called them back over to the counter. He gave them a Dubai Chocolate Bar for free and stated it was for them to share. The boys were in disbelief and so grateful, the owner shook their hands and went back to serving customers. Heartfelt moment aside, the food is delicious, with very generous portions and staff that are incredibly friendly. Supporting locally owned has never been this easy.

I have heard so much about Damascus Shawarma and I finally got the chance to get to Sudburry and try this truly amazing place. Warm greetings meet you when you walk into to restaurant. There are baked goods to tease your eyes and a variety of homemade pickles, sauces and even dessert ( i got some) are available for purchase. The beef shawarma was seasoned beautifuly and paired with the BEST garlic sauce I've ever had in my LIFE! The strawberry dubai cup was the perfect ending to our meal on the go. Everything crafted in the kitchen is done with love and care and that's rare to find these days. Thank you Damascus Shawrma for being a becon of cultural delight. I will be back time and time again!

Came to Sudbury to do some work for a client and saw this place was nearby. Decided to give it a try. Food was amazing, atmosphere was great and pricing was very reasonable. The one thing that I could not get enough of was the garlic sauce we had it for dinner and came back the next day and bought three tubs of it. True gem in the Sudbury area would highly recommend it to anyone driving through or just coming for a visit

Have traveled across Ontario for work and stop in at a Shawarma spot each city I'm in. Damascus is hands down the best spot in Ontario that I've had. Especially with the pomegranate molasses next level.

Delicious food. Owner himself was here to cook and serve us. Food was quick and tasty. We will be back again soon. There are also dessert options to buy to go. Generous portion sizes. Pictures below is regular wrap with side of fries. And regular swarma on rice.
