First time disappointed in malak, i got a taouk sandwich & a chicken salad, the bread was not fresh, the tawouk felt reheated & dry, & the salad came weirdly without a sauce

Mediocre taste & the skinniest line of chicken in the sandwich. Extremely disappointed. Not on brand to say the least.

visited this restaurant yesterday, & unfortunately, my experience was disappointing.

First, I left a $5 tip, but no one brought my order to the outdoor patio. I had to go back inside & carry the food outside myself.

Second, I ordered two chicken shawarma sandwiches, but they were mostly filled with fries. Each sandwich had only two small pieces of chicken, & the overall size was quite small. The portion did not justify the price at all.

I paid about $37 for two sandwiches, which I found to be very poor value for the quality & quantity of food I received.

The only positive thing I can say is that the restaurant was clean. However, the service & the food did not match the price, & unfortunately, I would not return.

I've been going here regularly since the opening, sandwich quality is diminishing, i just got 2 Taouk sandwiches with barely any chicken & a bunch of fries.

Shish Tawook sandwiches can be dry, unless in the hands of a real connoisseur! Malak al Tawouk is a master of Shish Tawook - the chicken is moist, seasoned well & the sandwich is an art! Loved it!

Stopped by after reading some mixed reviews & decided to judge for myself. Glad I did.

My tawouk sandwich was huge & loaded with chicken. In fact, after seeing comments saying there wasn't enough protein, I was paying attention to it-& there was chicken throughout the entire wrap. The further I got into it, the more I found.

Fresh pita, good garlic sauce, generous portion, & a very satisfying meal overall. Sometimes online reviews don't tell the whole story. Based on my visit, I'd happily recommend this spot & will definitely return.
