Order placed for delivery at 8 pm was delivered at 11:35 pm! Even though the restaurant confirmed at 8:45 pm that the food is out of delivery.

Update: shocking that the restaurant claims that the order was delivered by 9:10 pm! surely confusing with another customer. I placed the order via Ubereats and the food was delivered at 11:35 pm. @ restaurant, plx check with the delivery person

Great experience at Zazo! The food was delicious and the ambiance was perfect. Special thanks to Yaseen for being so friendly and helpful — excellent service!

I ate their Loaded Fries Shawarma Chicken and garlic sauce, which was decidedly yummy. My goodness! The depth of the taste was phenomenal. Their spices are subtle, but memorable.
I chose their garlic sauce and my friend chose the Tahini sauce on her beef Shawarma. The food is plentiful here. It was enough for me to be able to take some home. I was too hungry for that the first time, to do that.
I've went back yesterday with the same friend. The fun part is that they give points that you can use for each purchase, which I had missed seeing before, but my friend had not. I signed up on the spot and received 50 points the equivalent of $5.00 off my meal. Stupendous!
For my second visit, I had the Beef Sharwarma and my friend had a wrap. I was expecting shredded beef, but it was ground. Again, the spices added depth, but there was also perhaps a bit of greasiness from the ground beef. Although pretty, there was an almost overwhelming amount of chopped tomatoes on top, plus the requisite pickles. I opted out of the red onions, again since I have an onion sensitivity. That might cut the slight greasy taste bringing up the rear. I did not finish it, abs decided to take it home. Don't get me wrong it was still quite good, moist, ...yet still a little greasy.
I will, return. The food options, taste, and the bonus points, all make it worth it to go.

I buy beef shawarma pita sandwich. After changing from Operation Falafel to now Zazu, the size seems a bit smaller and the shape has definitely changed.

BUT THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THE MEAT. THE BEEF WAS GROUND BEEF, NOT SHAWARMA STYLE. Also, the ground beef tasted "watered-down" as if bread was mixed into it? Cost savings alert?

The mystery meat also soaked in a disgusting oil, LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THAT THE "SHAWARMA" BEEF WAS ACTUALLY JUST GROUND BEEF COOKED IN A PAN - NOT COOKED ON A SPIT!!!!!!

SAD - it seems I was only order #110 by the end of the day... yeah... this location is not lasting long...

Great, fresh, flavorful food! The chicken shawarma is seriously tasty and I dream of the cauliflower. The dining area is spacious and airy, a real treat for a fast casual restaurant.
