I’ve had a LOT of gyros pita sandwiches from a lot of places over the years but this is easily my new favorite place to order from. All the components were perfectly proportioned, the veggies were very fresh, and the tzatziki with lots of parsley was delicious.

Woah, the gyro is the best I’ve personally had in San Diego. The meat is a mix of lamb and beef just like I like it. Quick service and nice staff. Recommended!

The best falafel in San Diego! The plate is great if I’m super hungry, but if I’m not, the wrap comes in the amazing homemade flatbread. I moved to LA a couple months ago and have not found anything even close to this good. Whenever I come down and make a point to come here. Everyone is super nice and the food is still affordable, which is rare these days. Hopefully, they don’t have to raise prices too much when they move to the new location around the corner.

I’ve been coming here for many years. I love it so much. The maneesh ultimate is such a taste bud party, I can’t order anything else.

Delicious. I got the combo plate and the portion is huge. The meat is savory and seasoned well and it's tinder. Very good

I don’t usually feel the need to leave a negative review but after pulling out a staple (yes, a staple) from my grilled eggplant wrap I felt compelled to.

If you decide to eat here, chew carefully.

Best beef shwarma ive ever had!
Thank you for also offering great value for price and quantity.

Unfortunately worst hummus and garlic sauce. Also they charge $2 for 1 really small sauces cup. I thought it was going to be double the size. I think their stuffed grapes are overpriced. I think it was 6 pieces for almost $10. They need more of everything in their hummus Tahini olive oil garlic and lemon juice a bit dry and not a whole lot of flavor.

Same thing with garlic paste. Tasted watered down.

Zanqou chicken in Los Angeles has better chicken shwarma and hummus and garlic paste but here they have way better beef shwarma.
Instead of offering 2 pita breads maybe just 1 and throw in a garlic sauce.
Still appreciate some of the price points. They gyro is less than $10

Big servings, decent quality The hummus was bland though along with the pita/flatbread.

The new digs look like they will be great. Our fence visit left us wanting the food we used to get many years ago. Don't me wrong, the food is still great but before the dough used to be stretched thinner and that makes a huge difference when cooked on the Saj.

First time here after hearing about it on a YouTube video. I wanted to try a good amount of their menu, so we ordered the hummus, falafel, meat and spinach pie and the ultra manaeesh. Everything was so tasty and this was a bunch of food! The star i think was the manaeesh. Their flatbread with thyme seasoning, tomatoes, mint and lebni (a yogurt cream cheese). Next time I'll opt for adding chicken to it! They are moving to the otherside of the block, for a bigger location!

“I’ve been coming here for years, and it’s still just as good as I remember.” Love their vegetarian meals.

Love Mama’s I’ve been coming here for 20 years I now live about 1 hour 15 minutes away and it’s worth the drive. It’s just so delicious and fresh every time. I did notice the rice is now yellow and it used to be white but I’m not complaining it’s just as delicious. Recommend the beef and chicken shawarma it is absolutely finger licking delicious!
