I ordered the chicken shawarma sandwich. The sandwich was drenched in mayonnaise, likely a substitute for the garlic spread because I did not taste garlic as one would expect in such a sauce. If it was the garlic sauce, it is extremely mild, and still over saturated. Had the chicken been flavorful, I would have been more understanding re the over saturation of mayonnaise/sauce(?), but it was bland. I pray the challenges they are facing are resolved with honest hearts.
I ordered a chicken shawarma sandwich and soda to eat-in, and it was delicious! The sandwich was hot, chicken tender and well seasoned, fresh toppings and sauce. Large portions too! The staff was friendly, and ordereas cooked fast. The restaurant is clean and modern, but could use some music and a bit more heat in the table seating area. Very good food, definitely try it.

Unfortunately a bad review because of the misleading menu or plate options. On the menu online it says you can choose rice or fries for your meat plate, but when we ordered fries, we were given rice too and then charged extra for a side of fries. Would like the restaurant to fix this and clarify. The french fries are really good though.
