“ It is very delicious and healthy portion in my opinion. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed each and every bites of the meal. Salad leaves look clean and fresh just as the seating area. Reasonable price. The meat is a bit chewy but not salty, not oily or overwhelming with spices, just the right amount. Overall a great meal for this Friday lunch. ”

The shawarma whether chicken or Beef is amazing and delicious, the crispy thin bread is perfect for shawarma along with pickles and garlic sauce, the staff was polite and welcoming, they handover my son a free set of fries before our order arrived.
