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.

I got the chicken shish taouk which was absolutely fantastic. Don't skip the potatoes with garlic sauce, it's truly the showstopper! I also got a baklava sampler that I really enjoyed. Great for a quick lunch on the go.
