The best shawarma around, my go to once a week at least. Yummy and fresh. Staff is great too.Edit: unfortunately this place is going downhill, portions of meat and salads are smaller (just a lot of rice so overall it looks still big) and the staff completely changed and they are not nice as the former crew was. Went there twice lately and both times they only had leftovers, like they would be closing soon but they were open for another several hours, got so much rice and not really much meat and veggies, almost no hummus. Also found a little piece of plastic in my food ? One time ok it happens but second time in a row!! Honestly this used to be my fav shawarma place ?come on! I want it back to what it used to be

Had asked for falafel and I was hoping to get proper falafel but the dude there stuffed all vegetables and falafel in a pita bread wrap. I was hoping to get it in a bowl. Spoiled my experience.

I just had an extremely disappointing experience at a business in my neighborhood I was looking forward to trying. I decided to pick up a sandwich to surprise my partner who had also been wanting to try Ali Baba. I ordered a Shish Tawook sandwich because of the delicious looking chicken spit. When the server began preparing my sandwich, I noticed that she had taken what looked like grilled chicken from the fridge section and put it on the grill to heat. Unsure if it was for me or another order, I asked her if the chicken from the spit would used for my sandwich because 1) that is slow cooked vs grilled chicken and 2) it was the reason I chose the Shish Tawook sandwich. She said yes. When she went to add the meat, I noticed she was not taking the meat from the spit, but the reheated grilled chicken. I apologized and said I had understood it would be chicken from the spit and that they looked very different. She said it was just the seasoning that was different. When I said I'd like to have the spit chicken because that was what had made me place the order she said it was too late as she had already heated the grilled chicken.I am not one to complain, but I felt taken advantage of. I am soft spoken, was respectful, and feel there is no valid reason my reasonable request was denied - twice. I would like to discuss being reimbursed for the $11.85 I paid. I do not expect to return.
The closing hours is not updated on Google. It says 1 am as closing on Thursday but I came to the place at 10:50 pm and the dors were locked. Needs to be updated so we can know the exact hours.

Disgusting food. Dont order they uber eats. Their samosa was drenched in oil and soggy. There stuffed vine leaves did not look appetizing and tasted off. Their portions are small for the price but does not justify the bad quality. If you dont have something fresh dont serve it.
2022: Staff was super friendly. Fish plate is so fresh and delicious. Yum! Easy, quick week-night meal.Dec 2023 edit: Went here last night and the prices have increased to the point where I question going here again. $12 for a fairly meagrely stuffed fish pita. I was actually still hungry after I ate it, which was disappointing. I used to love the fish plate but I didn't really want to spend that much for dinner last night. Staff still equally pleasant!

Eat here at least once a week because it is convenient, tasty and service is fast. Go for the Tuesday special of 2 falafel wraps for under 13 bux tax included. The manager (African dude) is friendly and pro. He fills, wraps and toasts your wrap so it does not fall apart when you are eating it. Portions are generous.

Been going here for a few years now and it's still great. As a restaurant chain sometimes quality can be hit or miss but this location has been consistently good for me and I've never been disappointed with any of my meals. The staff are always friendly and it's a great option for a quick meal.
Sami did a great job… loved the service
