Food is half decent (though not best Lebanese in area) only moderately fresh, sauce did not come standard, had to pay extra, & portion size wasn't generous. I consider delivery from here bad value for money. Won't be reordering

Great place to try the delicious spinning meats. The mixed large wrap was great & the sauces were just right. I could still smell the tasty goodness on my hands the next day.

Great shawarma. Fresh. We tried the pomegranate sauce - its unique. Not typically what I'd get on my shawarma but it was a nice twist.

I've tried their shawarma wraps several times & wanted to try the shawarma bowl & it did not disappoint.

The bowl was filled to the brim with tender beef, & everything was flavorful & fresh!

It comes with basmati rice, potatoes, fattoush salad, & coleslaw.

Definitely a meal that will keep you full for several hours.

P.S. Make sure to order garlic sauce on the side-it makes all the difference.

Leurs shawarmas sont tout simplement délicieux toujours savoureux, bien garnis & parfaitement assaisonnés. Ce que j'apprécie particulièrement, c'est la possibilité de choisir parmi différentes sauces, chacune apportant une touche unique. Que ce soit l'ail, le piquant ou le tahini. J'y retournerai, & je ne suis jamais déçu.
