Ive been here 3 times. Solid solid shawarma! Always the same, very good consistency! Great pricing, and great taste! Not too spicy, not too sweet and good veggie to meat portion!nnYes it always busy, and yes the place is small but for a good shawarma its worth it.
This place does a nice chicken and beef shawarma sandwich. The flavors are very bold and robust. The atmosphere is a family hole in the wall type of spot. Very clean and nice. The counter is kept in spotless condition. The price is also very cheap for the quality of food. Highly recommend. A lot of locals come to visit this spot on the daily for a quick bite or an intimate sit down as part of the neighborhood.
Going with 4 stars because I felt the chicken was a bit on the dry side, have said that I'm no expert and maybe the is de rigeur for chicken shawarma. Service was excellent; french fries were straight out of the deep fryer so also excellent. The small chicken shawarma was the perfect size. Would definitely return. BTW 3 adults dined for under $30.
I got a mixed shawarma plate, chicken shawarma sandwich, and a beef shawarma sandwich for takeout. Everything tasted delicious! The sandwiches and plate were packed with meat. For the price your paying, it's definitely great value for what your getting. I paid about $34 tax in for everything. This place also only takes cash or debit. The service is also great This, everyone is so nice. This place is definitely one of my favorite shawarma spots.
I recently tried the shawarma from this place, and while the taste was decent, it reminded me more of shawarma from Kerala, India, rather than an authentic Arabic flavor. If you're a fan of Kerala-style shawarma, you might enjoy it, but if you're looking for something more traditional, you might be a bit disappointed.nnThe biggest downside, though, was the size. For the price they charge, the portion was surprisingly small and not worth it. Overall, it's okay if you're craving Kerala-style shawarma, but the value for money isn't quite there.
