It's not shawarma at all. Shawarma is not served this way. I won't say anything else bad. I will never go back.

Not many vegan or vegetarian options. The prices on the menu above the register could be different than what shows on your receipt. Pay close attention before paying. Atmosphere is good and the food tastes fresh.

The Beef Shawarma and Pork Chop plates were delicious. However, the Beef Lula plate was strange; it tasted more like a sweet Italian sausage - not what we expected.

Super surprised to so many negative reviews about this place. I’ve eaten here twice and it’s been great. The chicken shawarma is tasty, fries are crispy some kind of seasoning that’s pretty good, and the place is clean.

If I tell you this is one of my all-time favorites from their menu, believe me! I’m a huge fan of lamb chops, and theirs are hands down the best I’ve ever had. The seasoning is out of this world 🤩 Go try it and thank me later!

Terrible place. The shawarma was served cold. I specifically ordered it with bread, but they served it with lavash instead. Very disappointing.
Highly recommend! The food is delicious. It's made fresh.
They are pretty kind too. I made an error in my order and they worked with me to correct the error I made.
I don't love the 3% charge for using a credit card...

I’m not new to Mediterranean restaurants in LA. There are many up and down Sunset Blvd. Some I’ve reviewed, others I’ve eaten at but didn’t feel the need to review. Ara’s Shawarma demands a review! It is in a league of its own. It’s not a white table cloth restaurant but it serves 5 star food, solid presentation and has an excellent chocolate strawberry dessert! Yes that is a chocolate fountain!
I noticed this place on a trip to Home Depot and earmarked it for a visit. I was so impressed by this place. They offer fresh, marinated and cooked to order Mediterranean wraps, sandwiches, plates and bowls. With a variety of meat choices. You can choose from Chicken, Pork, Lula, Lamb, Chicken Shawarma, Beef Shawarma and even falafel! It’s insane how many options they have.
We settled on the Lamb Chops and Beef Kebab plates. The lamb was so deliciously marinated. I could taste the flavor all the way to the bone! The rice was fluffy and soaked up the juices from the lamb meat on top, the humus had more lumpiness to it but it still tasted great with the pita. They also offer a side cabbage salad that would probably fair better with something like a lemon or vinegar on it but again the star of the show was the meats!
Scratch that the star of the show was the price. I don’t know where you can get a proper lamb chop plate for under $20. I do now. I also tried a couple bites of the beef kebab and it was as good as the lamb. But my next trip I’m ordering the pork chops! Truth is with so many options you can’t choose wrong. Ara’s is a great new addition to the Sunset Blvd. Mediterranean Restaurant Scene and its setting itself above and apart.

Honestly the best food! Also I love the small onion 💖 I got the chicken Lula kebab - although they do rip you off because they charge extra taxes. So you will pay almost $19 for the 15.99 plate.
Good food and great service. Thank you!
