About

Amir delivers an authentic Middle Eastern fast-casual experience centered on high-volume production of fresh, flavorful staples. The menu highlights signature charcoal-grilled meat skewers, including marinated shish tawook and kafta, served alongside fluffy basmati rice and signature garlic sauce. Patrons frequently select the classic shawarma wraps, which feature thinly sliced vertical rotisserie proteins layered with fresh vegetables and pickles inside warm pita bread. The kitchen emphasizes speed and consistency, utilizing traditional spice blends to achieve a recognizable, bold flavor profile across all Mediterranean-inspired offerings. Fresh fattoush and tabouli salads provide crisp, herb-forward accompaniments to heavier protein plates, while crispy falafel discs round out the vegetarian options. This establishment maintains a functional, no-frills environment designed for quick service and efficient takeout, ensuring that each meal adheres to established quality standards for Lebanese-style street food.

Very disappointing experience. The cashier was rude… & used disrespectful language, which was completely unacceptable. The food was overly salty & didn't taste good at all. On top of that, there was a very unpleasant smell throughout the restaurant. I would not recommend this place.

There was one other customer, employee was less than pleasant, not thrilled to be serving us, took a secondary customer after us but gave them priority in making their food before finishing making our shawarma, & even took payment from them before finishing our order. It was quiet in the location & no excuse for terrible service.

We used to live nearby & order regularly from here because the food quality, quantity & hospitality are all top-notch. Special mention to Rama & her husband who make this place feel more welcoming & warm! Now we don't live nearby but visit this place everytime we are in the area.

I had their food as part of too good to go, & we paid like 18 $, the staff were really generous with the portions & it was tasty overall. We added 2 soft drinks for an extra 5 $ .

Thank you once again for a great experience.

I haven't ate at an Amir in years.Popped into the one on notre-dame.Stay away.The cook scraped the old chicken of the tray instead of cutting of the rotisserie.I got the sandwich home 2 minutes later & opened the wrap.The whole sandwich fell apart onto my floor.Pita was soggy.Took 1 bite & threw it out.Read the reviews this place is horrible.

I'm so tired of the foolishness. If you don't want to offer BOGO, you don't have too!! Almost doubling the price & then calling it a deal is very disgusting.

I haven't had Amir in a year & thought I'd try again. But the greed & audacity of you restaurants is just out of control now!
