This place was great. The food was very good but what really stood out was the service. The person making our food was so kind and generous. Will definitely be

Came here for lunch and got a chicken salad. I was surprised that they didn't offer or put pita chips on it. Chicken was a bit on the dry side, but not terribly so. Flavor was just okay. The spicy garlic sauce wasn't bad but was definitely too salty. Decent portion of chicken.Overall I'd say it was just okay, and good if you're in a pinch.

I discovered this place a couple of months ago. The owner was incredibly welcoming and friendly. The food was flavorful, fresh and delicious. My son & I wandered in out of the cold just looking to warm up and get something to eat while we waited for a ride. We were genuinely touched by the hospitality here. The food is absolutely delicious. I will be making a point of stopping by anytime I am in the area.
Generous portions. Cut the meat old style using a knife. Man serving dropped a small piece of chicken, and went back to get me more.

The shop is small but quaint and the staff were all kind to me. Their wraps taste great, the garlic sauce just right and the ingredients taste very fresh. Their potatoes aren't too greasy which is a huge plus for me. I also like the prices on everything (for a student on a budget, I'll take a $7 wrap any day I'm not up to making lunch for myself). And I can't thank them enough for having a reasonable tipping scale of 10%-15%-20%, it seems today like so many shops abuse tipping scales to make us tip more than we would like to, but this was so refreshing to me I had to tip the full 20%. Overall great shop and would recommend.Vegetarian options: I had the Falafel wrap, a vegan option, and it tasted great! There were many vegan options on the menu for those of us who are vegan, vegetarian, or just looking to cut our consumption of meat.

Had an absolutely amazing experience at Shawarma Express! It's evident that the owner loves what they do. The attention to detail, freshness of ingredients, and friendly atmosphere create a perfect combination. If you're a shawarma enthusiast or just looking for a delightful meal, Shawarma Express is a must-visit!

First time trying shawarma and it was a great experience!
The dishes where amazing and the selection is very large with Lebanese and Saudi Arabian food. Overall great experience, and the staff are very kind. Each time I walk into this establishment the staff offers me sample products and take time and effort with the dishes. It is a small yet humble restaurant.

Chicken sandwich was delicious. Potatoes were neither hot or fresh. Garlic sauce container was dirty, had black specks all over the inside.
