Some of the best food in town. Delicious, hot, well spiced, filling every time. SO good. The falafel is a hit every time, as well as the shawarma and shish. Hope this place continues to thrive 💸💧

If it was possible to give negative stars, I would. The staff was blatantly rude and disrespectful. While leaning on his elbow, the guy at the counter handed me food and said it had been sitting there for over an hour, but it wasn't his problem because he wasn't the one that had to eat it. This is service??? I'm not surprised their place was empty.

How and where do I begin? Amazing, amazing, amazing food. I don't live in Gainesville, and I was driving towards Gainesville to drop a lyft passenger his documents. I was starving, and I started googling for halal food around me, I found a few places, but for some reason, this was the one I chose. I was glad I did. I ordered the shish beef kebab with rice, no veggies, however I still got it, which I was glad and no complain because it was fresh and the falafel wrap to go. The rice and beef were just delicious, and on point and the falafel wrap was just amazingly delicious. I might drive 5 hours away from where I am now just to eat at this place again. The guy was extremely friendly and polite. He's from Jordan, and for someone like me who had lived in Jordan before knows how amazing their food was, I was happy, and it definitely brought back memories. Please go check it out, and you will not regret it. I'm not paid to make this honest review. This is my opinion and solely mine.
Parking: The parking is on the back or side of the restaurant. It does get a little dark and eerie at night.

I never had Shwarma so I ordered the chicken Shwarma platter. It was excellent. The salad was fresh with delicious dressing. My husband had the Gyro platter. It was great too. We only saw one employee/owner and he was busy. Lunch crowd was happy. I highly recommend.

Searched for something different than the usual boring cuisine and came across this place. We are very happy we stopped as the good was perfect and the service matched the food!
We ordered a variety and had plenty for dinner later that day.
Parking was a little bit of a PITA as we are not familiar with the area, but once we parked it was a pleasant experience!
