Laud Shawarma @ THE Cafe

Overpriced. Got the chicken shawarma wrap, but it barely had any chicken in it. Flavors were ok, but not worth $10. It was mostly bread with little pieces of cabbage and about 30 grams of chicken (which is a generous estimation). The service is
friendly, but the wrap took 15 minutes to prepare. Atmosphere was a vibe, but because it’s in a food hall.

Love this place. Walk in the door and immediately to the right is Lawd Shawarma! A wonderfully warm meal of fish & eggs with vegan bread and Christmas-spiced Sorrel / Hibiscus drink. No matter what they call the next respiratory illness, no matter if you need to starve a flu or feed a cold. Problem solved for me. Lawd! I thank you.

If I could give negative stars. Didn’t get my exact chicken shawarma order, ordered hotdogs and spicy, neither in sight. No taste and very bland. Not worth it at all. They should change their name too. Very scammy

Save yourself time and money and head over to Subway. Definitely not Naija-style, so embarrassing. No flavor. It’s just a chicken and ketchup wrap 🤮

The breakfast here is amazing!!!

I had to come back for seconds but breakfast had unfortunately ended so I settled for the regular chicken shawarma and was blown away a second time 😍…. This place is legit!

This is my favourite place to pick up lunch in Solaire Social. The fish shawarma, jollof rice and bread are very good👌🏿. I really love the almond milkshake - absolutely delicious. The people who run the shop are kind.

The shawarma wasn’t but bad, but the meatpie size shocked me. I understand mini, but for $5 each is a bit crazy.

I plead for everyone to try out this place if you haven’t already. Excellent shawarmas, breakfast sandwiches, and their egg sauce?? IMMACULATE. Located at Solaire Social, you won’t be disappointed

I was really looking forward to trying this place, but unfortunately, it ended up being a letdown. The shawarma was actually quite good—I'd give it an 8/10. It was well-prepared, and the sauce was really nice.

However, the experience went downhill with the sweet potato fries, which were badly burnt. I asked for a fresh batch, and the person serving me said he’d bring one out—but never did. After waiting 15–20 minutes, I went to check, and he quickly ran to the back to avoid me. I could clearly see that he had never even tried to fry a new batch.

At the very least, I expected a refund, but that never happened. I ended up wasting money on food I couldn’t eat. I won’t be going back—Prime Grill in Laurel is much better.

This gem is located at the Solaire Social food hall in downtown Silver Spring. I had the fish (salmon) schwarma, which was savory and delicious (not often that you see fish as a schwarma option). The employee was pleasant and helpful and the food was ready promptly. Highly recommend.
