One of the best Hidden Gems in Monterey County.! If you call in you can pick it up and skip the wait.Their lamb and beef shwarmas are so good, and if you like the heat ask for spicy.I haven't got anything else because it's so delicious anytime I pass by I'm craving one. I did get to a friend's Greek fries and they were so good and saucy.PSA ?: I don't see the banner outside on the cheveron anymore, just go inside the food mart cheveron.

The first real shawarma I tried in the States. The veggies are fresh, while the meat is perfectly spiced. Definitely recommend and will visit once

We got delivery for a pretty big group. They did an overall good job with our order and it was all packed well. The portions are generous and they included napkins, condiments, etc.One person made a request for chopsticks. Kinda weird maybe but they ended going to the sushi restaurant down the street and asking for some for us. They wrote us a note to explain that to us too.They went above and beyond and the food was great! Would definitely try more of their food next time I'm in the area.

As a truck driver, the place is good, they have bathrooms, food, diesel, the only thing they lack is having DEF, they need more places that sell DEF.

Delicious food in an unassuming location. I am so glad that I was told Amory Shawarma King by a friend.
This kitchen is located inside the Chevron gas station. It is a great takeout place for people who want a quick wholesome meal without the taste of animal blood in their food, as this place use halal meat.My first experience started with a warm welcome by the cook when I stopped by with my wife and a teenage son. The menu was self-explanatory. The cook, named Luqmaan, helped us pick a different dish/ combination by providing his expert opinion and recommendations. When he finished making us three meals, each with a custom-made combination, he gave 3 pieces of fresh Baklawa on the house for being first-time customers. Charges were very reasonable. After picking up the food, we decided to eat it at a local beach. The food was fresh, authentic, unique, and tasted like homemade food. It was a perfect meal for us. The only things I missed in this kitchen were some tables and chairs. We definitely will be going back very soon.Vegetarian options: Vegetarians: Ask the cook not to add the meat and pick from plenty of available veggies.Dietary restrictions: You can always create your own custom menu. Just ask the cook.
The best, freshest and cleanest Middle Eastern food in Monterey County. Dont let the gas station thing keep you away. Run by a friendly and personable family family Abdul and his several sons- the lamb with tahini and hummus are phenomenal .They are trying to expnand with sit down tables. Show your support for this family who arre trying to do everything right.

Absolute hidden gem! Greek fries are sooo good and the falafel balls are spiced nicely! The guys there are super nice and gave us baklava for the long wait. This place is on my way home so I found my new stop during my commuteVegetarian options: Falafel is really good! It's made to order and the mixture is made in-house with fresh spices.
