I love these guy's food but it's so freaking inconsistent. Sometimes it's such a mess. Delicious but just such a pain to eat.

We used Nineveh as a caterer for a big birthday party. They catered for 100 people and the food was exceptional. We did the Shawarma Bar and it was affordable and delicious and provided more than enough food for what we needed. Everyone raved about it and wanted to know where we got the good. Delivery was easy, communication was a breeze, and again - amazing food! We had contemplated other catering options in Olympia and I really think that Nineveh has everyone beat for both price and quality.

My hubby and I went for lunch on a Monday. He ordered the falafel sandwich and a cola and I had the lamb and beef shawarma sandwich and the fried cauliflower with z'atar aioli. Everything was prepared to order and you could see the beef and lamb roasting on a spit in the truck. The staff was friendly and accommodating to my request to add extra sauce to my sandwich and they dis not charge extra for it. My husband loved his falafel sandwich which came with picked veggies inside and just a touch of hot sauce that added to the flavor but wasn't overwhelming. My beef and lamb shawarma sandwich also had fresh veggies, the meat was flavorful and delicious. The fried cauliflower was piping hot, super crispy and the z'atar aioli was the perfect accompaniment. I wrapped up my lunch with a piece of baklava which was crispy, not too sweet, nicely spiced and super yummy. Terrific meal and we'll definitely be back!Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian options.Parking: we had no trouble parking but were there at 11am on a Monday which may have not been as busy as other times.

The chicken shawarma sandwich is honestly one of my favorite things to eat in Olympia. I haven't tried most of their other offerings because I typically stick with a thing I like when I find it when talking about food. The service is hit or miss; if its the younger folks working or the women they're very friendly and quick, if its the older white guy he can be quite abrasive and rude. Still, one time when he accidentally gave my wife a lamb sandwich when she ordered a lamb salad, he was very apologetic and let us keep and eat the sandwich too.
I had some falafel with greek fries with garlic seasoning. It was simple but dang delicious, and I'll definitely be back for more when I can. The staff were also very nice.

How do you rate the atmosphere for a food truck? I like the fact that there are several food trucks in this little area. But I have to tell you that I haven't tried them all because I love Nineveh so much! Also, the only reason I go downtown these days is pretty much because I want to eat food from Nineveh. I get the shawarma and the bourek. I definitely need to try other things as well.

Fried cauliflower is my favorite, but all of the menu is excellent ?Vegetarian options: Lots of options for a vegetarian meal. May have to ask for sure on vegan options. :)
Sorry no pictures. We ate and talked about all the flavors we were experiencing. We got the falafel and shawarma. They were both excellent. The spices which we couldn’t exactly place made the shawarma a touch “gamey” for me but that’s me, when I maneuvered the wrap around to make sure to get a bit of the delicious cucumber sauce and bright crunchy pickled vegetables it was less notable and beautifully balanced. My family loved it without hesitation. The falafel was also flavorful with layered flavors and a touch of heat. I’m a foodie at heart and am always thankful for a well executed and well intentioned meal. Make the stop. Grab a cider at Whitewood while you wait and meander over to 3 Mags like we did so our kiddo could eat with us.Vegetarian options: Equal options.
This food truck serves up some delicious food! The first bite of the lamb/beef shawarma was one of those, "Wait what!?" moments. The pita is thin, perfectly charred, and still soft. The meat is chopped small, grilled, and kind of barky like the edges of good BBQ. There are crisp pickled vegetables and a garlic sauce to give it bite and tanginess without being spicy. The guy taking the orders is also really friendly and outgoing. Love this truck!

Some of the best shwarma I've had, with not too much sauce (so many places drown it in sauce and edge out every other flavor).

Ordered Sabich sandwich. I thought it was an eggplant sandwich. It had 4 thin slices honestly I didn’t taste it. Sauce was nice. But it wasn’t worth 10$. I wish it had more eggplants.

Not sure what others are talking about, the walk to it is barely elevated. It's apart of a few other food trucks and a drive thru coffee shop. I walked to it but parking looks like it could be a little bit of a pain.Food was very good! Got the falafel wrap and sweet potato fries and it was very tasty. Right amount of spice and I waited maybe 5 minutes for my food. There were about 9 tables if you stayed, but I walked and ate. I would def go again! It's not badly priced at allVegetarian options: Plenty of optionsParking: Limited number of spots, but easy enough if you park and walk
