There are a lot of shawarma/gyro places within a few blocks of each other. I tend to go to each one for different menu items. Shawarma King is indeed the best of the shawarma in the area. Inexpensive and convenient as well. Order in person or use their website so those delivery companies don't steal their profits. Both locations are just as good.

First...I love that it is open late night. I really did not want to go get another pizza For my late night food run. Second...The food is so good the lamb shawarma is amazing and The fries were piping hot in stayed hot for A while And they were very Good... crispy not mushy. The service was awesthey're very nice and also we're very friendlyWith my very sometimes unfriendly dog. Where most people do not put up with his rudeness they were very patient with my dingo, Deuce (pitbull, not really a dingo). Actually... As a matter of fact just me writing this review is making me want to go back there and get some shawarma and fries right now. I most definitely recommend this place if you're ever in the University District late night and even in the daylight hours looking for some grub.

Parking: After hours street parking free but paid during daytime hours.

Awesome food! We ate there in the evening, and I saw them making new falafels behind the counter, so the food was fresh. The pitas were super fresh and tasted amazing as well.

What stood out the most, though, was the manner of the guy that took our order and served us our food. I don't know that I've met someone that took as much pride in the food that they provide as that guy. My companion and I remarked how we'd both gotten the same feeling from him, and knew we were in for a great meal even before we'd tried any of the food.
