Je suis de la région de Rivière-du-loup. Et à chaque fois que nous passons devant Lévis. Nous nous devons de faire un arrêt chez Schems. C'est mon ex qui m'a fait découvrir votre resto. C'est la seul chose de bonne que je retiens d'elle.

Sorry, this was not good. I love Shawarma but I'm glad this wasn't my first experience or I would be missing out on good food. I felt sorry for the two ladies working there was no joy in what they were doing and it really showed.

We enjoyed our meal, it is just a gem of a place, basic street food, tasty, filling, and good value for your money, too busy eating the food to take photos, will try and remember next time.

Walked in.... walked right out. No shawarma and meat looked plain and tasteless.

Food is excellent. You get a lot of it for a great price. The employee are good. The wait takes time but at least your potatoes and meat is freshly cooked. I try to go there as much as I can whenever I am around .

I have been going to this restaurant since it opened in 2007 and since then, I have not been able to find better Shish Taouk or Shawarma anywhere else! Oh and we havent even talked about the small potatoes and the garlic sauce (the real one, not the common mayonnaise!) seasoned on site, they are succulent! Dont be fooled by the sober look of the restaurant, the real magic happens behind the counter thanks to the smiles and good service of the employees and the excellence of their dishes!

★★★★
April 22, 2024

In my opinion, I would cook the meat a little less on the stove because it becomes dry and lacks tenderness. Thank you.

★★★★★

Shams restaurant is one of the best restaurants serving Lebanese dishes in Lévis Excellent and fast service at a very reasonable price The most important thing is cleanliness, despite the difficulty of finding employees to help, but the owner of the restaurant makes a huge effort to satisfy her customers. For me, I will come back You deserve 5 stars

Very good experience. The staff was really nice. The restaurant is beautiful, the dishes are good. The price is fair. He gives you free tea. The only thing I didnt like was the waste. Everything is plastic, the glasses, the dishes, etc. Its not at all ecological and I hope that will change.

Luckily it s good! Because in terms of atmosphere, as much by the bland/gloomy premises as by the non-smiling of the clerks, it leaves something to be desired... We dont have the impression of being happy to have you as a customer!!

Always good and affordable. The staff is polite and courteous. I should go there more regularly. It is not a haute cuisine restaurant, but the pleasure of eating well is just as present. If you like this type of cuisine, you should be delighted and happy. The portions are very good.

I arrived at the restaurant at 7:30 p.m. and already at that time half of the items on the menu were no longer available. The dishes were delicious but they should be careful to always offer their full menu.

Local Guide
December 22, 2016

Tough and dry meat (why brown it after cutting it?), soft turnip, instant rice, little choice of salads, slow and disorganized service (13 minutes before being served)... At least the potatoes are satisfactory. The employees are also very welcoming. I hope this place will improve, because there are too few Lebanese restaurants on the south bank.

I think the food is good. Service a bit slow. On the other hand, the cleanliness is really not great. The layout and decoration of the restaurant are really bad.

★★★
Local Guide
December 22, 2014

The food is good. The price is reasonable. The places are clean. On the other hand, one suggestion that I will give to owners: your calculation of the QST on your invoices is incorrect. Since the beginning of 2013, the QST of 9.975% only applies to the subtotal before taxes. Their fund calculates 9.975% on top of the subtotal and GST which was the norm until December 31, 2012. Nothing alarming for a $14 bill, the difference is only 7 cents but definitely a detail to correct in order to balance your accounting books.

December 22, 2014

Bad behavior...lack of delicacy...

★★★★★

The best Lebanese restaurant in Quebec, I really recommend it!!! The food is excellent, the welcome is incredible!
