My friend and I were looking for a spot to get some dinner before a Celtics game and we were walking by New York Shawarma Guys on the way to the arena and decided to go there. We were there under an hour before tip off and it wasn’t overly busy which was nice!I ordered the lamb shawarma wrap and forgot to ask for it to be spicy, but they gave me some hot sauce on the side. The wrap was made very quickly and was tasty with a good portion of lamb. It was a pretty big wrap and left me feeling full by the time I finished it. The beef in my buddy’s falafel and beef shawarma wrap had some pieces that were pretty tough, but the shawarma wraps were good overall.When I asked about the deal that I saw on a sign out front to get a drink for free when you order a Shawarma wrap, I was told that that was just for lunch but I could grab a can of soda anyway, which was really kind of them. The service was great!Hard to beat for $12 each downtown Boston! I’ll be back!

Great food and great people. Food is always fresh, fast, and well-priced. Hardworking people who are friendly and kind. Definitely give them a try if you are in the area. One of my favorite local takeout places.

This place is an absolute gem and, in my opinion, the best Shawarma in Boston. Faiz is so kind and always remembers me. And most importantly, the food is always DELICIOUS. You will not regret stopping in, I promise.

Go for: Fast, hearty, delicious shawarma wraps - and not much else.Avoid if: Their menu options are in the name. If you're looking for a big menu with lots of options, seek elsewhere.Something . Given the location right above North Station and TD Garden, the prices were reasonable.Reservation needed? No, counter service only.Overall Experience: It was pretty much what you'd expect from a East Coast sandwich/pita shop. Despite the small menu, the options were still somehow confusing. Either way, you'll have your food in hand in less than 7 minutes if it's not busy. The interior could use a refresh, but maybe that's part of its character.Value for Price: 3Sanitation: 3Food Quality: 3Menu Precision: 4Service Quality: 4Timing: 5Decor: 2Access: 4—5 among the best4 strong3 not too bad2 mediocre1 never again
