First the owner is a delight, Karim is fantastic! Second the food it THE BOMB! Loved the chicken shawarma and the pita is the best I've ever had. There is a garlic sauce that is AMAZING and pairs so well with everything. There was practically no wait time between when we ordered and when we ate and portions were very generous. If you are looking for an authentic shawarma and divine service THIS is the place!

I was visiting my brother from out of town and I am pretty sure I ordered from here every single day. I ordered the falafel tacos, cheese manakeesh and za’atar manakeesh. The food is sooooo delicious and service is great! My husband dined in with our kids and they had other things on the menu they all loved it as well! This place is a hidden gem. Staff is very friendly too! I wish I lived here! I would eat here everyday 😅😅 10/10 recommend

When it comes to Shawarma, I am extremely picky and this is literally one of the best Shawarmas I have ever had in the U.S of A. The spicy chicken was my personal favourite and the lamb&beed was really good too. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE VISITING RICHMOND (or lives there lol).
