I really enjoyed this place. One of the best halal spots i’ve been too. Authentic and flavorful, portions are big. The people working here are kind and the restaurant is clean and well kept. I got beef/lamb and it was tender, and juicy cooked to perfection. I would definitely recommend this spot.

Updating my review. The owner listened to my feedback, spoke to his team and has rectified the issue . No more oily wraps for the past few Sundays.

We love the food here but lately the chicken wrap that we grab Togo on Sundays has been soaking in oil that seeps thru the brown bag .

I ordered the beef & lamb shawarma plate with French fries, but it arrived dry and cold. The serving style with chopped vegetables placed on top felt out of place and did not fit the overall concept. Even the side salad was disappointing: just a few leaves with cherry tomatoes some chopped pickled vegetables, but no character...

The atmosphere was also unwelcoming. The design felt cold, the temperature inside was uncomfortably freezing, and the constant drafts made the food turn cold within minutes. Service was not particularly friendly either.

On top of that, everything was served in plastic packaging and with a cheap plastic fork, which made it difficult to eat and felt very wasteful and not environmentally friendly.

I had really hoped to enjoy authentic Palestinian food here, but sadly, it did not meet my expectations. Pity.

I got this delivered through Foodie Earth for dinner and it hit the spot! I got the chicken wrap arabi style with fries (those were forgotten with my order), lamb beef wrap, and 3 falafels.

From what l've seen on the reviews, the chicken wrap is everyone's favorite, but for me the lamb wrap was my favorite!! Loved the meat and there was a good amount of it.

I've been wanting to try this place for a while and Foodie Earth made it so easy so I didn't have to leave my apartment and deal with the parking, l've driven past this place and parking seems to be limited.

First time here today and loved it. We tried the chicken wrap, lamb/beef shwarma fries, and side of pickles. Everything was excellent - great quality ingredients, super flavorful, friendly service. Portions are huge, and each of our items could've been shared between two people easily. Currently heating up our leftovers for dinner so definitely not mad at it. Super glad to have found this place and looking forward to coming back.

Of all the varieties of Middle Eastern food in the area, this one is probably the best. They have a limited menu, but the shawarma is excellent! The “full” shawarma is a bit massive though, so be warned it might be more food than you’re looking for

I ordered the chicken Sharma sandwich w fries, spicy sauce and pomegranate molasis. It was DELICIOUS - didn't even wait to take a pic. Highly recommend it. Authentic Sharma.

Listen… Shawarmaji understood the assignment. I ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and ate it like I hadn’t seen food in days. Every bite? Fire. Saucy, flavorful, perfectly wrapped happiness. No crumbs left behind.

The house salad? I was just trying to be a little healthy, but that pomegranate and sumac dressing hit me with a tart, tangy uppercut I did not see coming—in the best way possible. I would drink that dressing if it were socially acceptable.

Also ordered the assorted pickles because I’m a certified pickle girlie, and whew—they did not disappoint. Crunchy, salty, and slightly addictive.

Only slight letdown was the lemon mint drink. It was delicious, but baby... for the size and price? That thing vanished in three sips. I’m gonna need a refill included next time.

Overall, 10/10 taste.
