About Shawarma Shabazi

Shawarma Shabazi is a restaurant that offers Israeli cuisine, particularly known for its shawarma and falafel. The chicken shawarma platter is a popular choice, featuring tender chicken and a variety of unlimited toppings with complex and flavorful tastes. The toppings include a light and fresh chopped salad, finely chopped pickles, red cabbage slaw, and onions with a slight char. The portion size is large and can feed a family of four with leftovers. The falafel is also highly regarded. Customers praise the generous portions, with some mentioning the meat and vegetables are loaded and very delicious. The toppings often include hummus, tahini, cucumber, eggplant, and more, making the meal satisfying and flavorful. The restaurant is known for its fast and attentive service, and many say it feels like home. For those with dietary restrictions, the shawarma bowl is a healthy, gluten-free option. Although the prices are a bit higher, the quality of the food and the friendly staff make it worth it. Customers often recommend this place for its delicious food, large portions, and consistent flavors. Some reviews mention the restaurant's ability to fix issues quickly and going above and beyond for customers. It’s a great spot to enjoy Israeli dishes, with some staff speaking Hebrew. The restaurant also offers BYOT (bring your own table or take out if the weather is bad), and the food can be enjoyed at the sister restaurant Tahlia Steakhouse next door, providing a flexible and enjoyable dining experience.
