“This was my first visit to Shawarma Express Halal, the food was delicious and the staff were very friendly and helpful with food selections. I’ll definitely be going back.“

“Wow. I got the lamb gyro with some falafel in it... and this was probably the best gyro I ever had. I got the spicy version and the tzatziki totally balanced it out - not too spicy, just flavorful. The lamb was tender and the falafel was moist and crunchy.

Highly recommend.“

“This is one of my favorite places to eat downtown. Staff knows the menu so well. And is kind to make sure everything they prepare meets your dietary needs. Drinks are wonderful. And while the main dining room is great the bar behind the restaurant is a good hack with the same menu on a busy night.“

“We had an amazing experience here, and a truly memorable meal. From the appetizer of the lentil soup (trust me, take the advice and squeeze lemon on it, amazing) to the various dips to the Tantuni (stir-fried beef in wraps or sandwiches), the flavors are perfectly balanced and spiced. Add in an excellent cocktail and wonderful service, we absolutely recommend giving Chef Agir a try!“

“A caravan of Tellurian delights, The Shawarma Truck delivers on its name and stands firmly on bidness. There's nothing missing here, from the Shawarma to the Truck, they've really got it all.

Jokes aside, the food's great, solid prices and with beer accessible you've got all of the makings of a great Saturday afternoon. I enjoy that they saved my phone number when I call in a bike-borne lunch pickup.“

“UPDATE- we ordered catering from Moonlight Grill and we were surprised to find out that the business had been sold to a new owner. We were disappointed to hear this as we were not notified prior. The new owners are very kind and accommodating. It is important to note that the food tastes different because they are using new recipes.

Old review: Best Mediterranean spot in town. The food is fresh and the staff is friendly. We are a bit picky about food- quality, salt level, and seasoning, Moonlight Grill checks all the boxes for the perfect meal. We picked up catering this weekend for Easter and the platters were beautifully assembled. Our families were so impressed by the flavor. The hummus, dolmas, and kafta kabob are our favorites, but everything here is delicious.“

“The man who owns this cart is a gem. He is very kind. The first time I went there I got lamb Saj. This is my go too. I also ordered Dolmas (Stuffed Grape leaves). Authentic Iraqi cuisine.

The second time I went I let him pick what to give me. I will be back. Twice the food was perfect.“

“I've been coming here for lunch whenever I can for the past two years, and it never disappoints! Easily some of the best Mediterranean/Middle Eastern food in the Portland area. There can be a bit of a wait during lunch hour since it's a one-man food cart operation (at most 10-15 minutes), but it's always worth it since everything is fresh and made-to-order. From the massive gyros to the delicious plates, everything is a must-try. To top it off, Ali is incredibly friendly and passionate, and it truly shows in the quality of his food.“

“Very good and fresh! We Weill definitely be back!“

“One of the best gyro platters in town. It was delicious ! Super fresh and flavorful ingredients. The staff was very kind and friendly. Everything was top in my opinion. The only issue was the outdoor seating area, which felt uncomfortable due to people yelling nearby. I’d recommend takeout instead.“

“We pick up take out from here at least once a month. It is always fast and good quality with a large serving sizes. Their chicken shawarma and lamb gyros are my favorites among all the other gyro restaurants in the area. Staff was helpful for dietary restrictions. They have Arabic and Greek style pita bread, which both are good. It is in a strip mall so not much atmosphere but the food makes up for it. My kids really like the chicken shawarma and it is so easy for a quick dinner.“

“Probably closer to a 4.5, so I rounded up.
Abu Omar Gyros & Shawarma is a great place to eat.

I got a chicken Shawarma. Until to day I thought it was the same thing as a Gyro. Well, you learn something new every day.
It was very tasty. Lots of meat. They also gave me a little cup of hot sauce. Prob a med spice level. Really added to the Shawarma.
It's a big Shawarma. Half of it would be a meal. 3/4ths would be very full. Ate the whole thing and was uncomfortably full the rest of the day.Unless you're a big eater, be prepared to take some home.

My only complaint was the the bottom of the Shawarma the tortilla got soggy and fell apart. Good thing I'm a fast eater and was almost done when it totally fell apart.

I'll go back to this place and try a gyro next time.“

“Best gyro in town! The lamb is so amazing. Brought a friend from out of town and she said it was the best she’s ever had. 😋“
