I’m embarrassed to say I just ate at Shawarma King #1 for the first time. It was absolutely delicious! The staff were very friendly and the food was outstanding. So much flavor!
Food was excellent, management was kind and welcoming. The food had an earthy and aromatic. I ordered the chicken shwarama and kifta kebab, it came with tahini and a red spicy sauce. The fries were also seasoned and crispy. 5/5.

I didn't care for thick tasteless gyro meat.

This might be the best middle eastern food in Chicagoland. Took my family here… the mix grill for 6 was enough food for the nine of us. More importantly, the food was delicious!

Their food is over priced, & not worth your money. The people at the register always have a rude tone with a smiling face. The falafel is so salty it’s ridiculous. The gyro meat is all processed. The chicken Kabab is tolerable. They are selling low quality food at a high price. The atmosphere is okay. Go elsewhere.

Excellent restaurant! Today I ordered chicken shawarma without lavash, and the portion was large. The dish was very, very tasty! The interior of the restaurant is very beautiful, decorated in an oriental style. But most importantly, the dishes, presentation, and taste are excellent. 10 stars from 5!!

This place is the King of Shwarma! But don't forget they have so much more. They use the highest quality organic ingredients. The staff is very professional and you will feel like royalty because they treat customers with great respect. You must stop here if u are anywhere near. If u are at 6 flags with a large group, this place has the best food and team to feed large groups. I am definitely going back on Tuesday. When u try authentic fresh food cooked to perfection, you will never go back to cheap imitations.

Amazing food! The hummus is the creamiest I’ve EVER had! The chicken shawarma platter is the best! I’d give it 10 stars if I could! To go is great but the tables and decor are super homey. Either way, you’ll get a great meal.
The shawarma wrap was good in terms of seasoning and the bread but it’s missing the garlic sauce which is usually a component of the authentic middle eastern shawarma. It was dry and adding the sauce would make it 10/10
