Absolutely delicious shawarma! It was fresh, juicy, flavorful, and huge--definitely a generous portion. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the ingredients tasted fresh. Great food, fast service, and everything exceeded my expectations. I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend if you're looking for a really good shawarma! read more

I am a sucker for Halal/Mediterranean food; and when I found out about all these amazing flavors coming from a mobile food truck, I had to see and taste what all the fuss was about. This takes me to "812 Grill" which has slowly gained a small cult following through social media since opening back in mid-2024. Located in a large outdoor strip mall on busy Watt Ave in North Highlands, 812 Grill is tucked smack dab in between Freedom Park Dr and Karl Dr. Parking was easy to find as there aren't a whole lot of businesses close to where they are located. I came here during the afternoon on Sunday 1/18/2026 at around 4:30pm. For those wondering, they are open for business Tuesday through Sunday from 11am-9pm and closed on Monday. You also have the option of placing your order online for pickup or delivery (DoorDash, Uber Eats, & Postmates). Since I did neither, I ordered my food the old fashioned way and that was at the ordering station area of the truck. I went with what was arguably their most popular item, the "Chicken Shawarma". They carry these in chicken as well as beef while you can also opt fora complete meal with fries. In addition to the Shawarma, they also specialize in a Halal-style cheeseburger as well as raptor fries (available in chicken or beef), wings, chopped cheese, and several lemonade flavors. And when my shawarma was ready, the pager they provide you sets off a chirping beep. Total time it took from when I ordered to when I got my food was about 10 minutes. After making the 15-minute drive back home, I unwrapped this thing and was ready to judge how good this was. As you can see from the photo, the size of this thing is massive as it is roughly about a foot long. And after the first bite, I enjoyed the seasoned and tender pieces of grilled chicken as they definitely did not disappoint. This wrap also included lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and the signature sauce. The only reason for a deduction in the rating is that it was a little soggy which probably tastes a LOT better as soon as it is handed to you but nonetheless, it was above average. All in all, "812 Grill" was well worth the price and at $11.99 for a ton of food, you can't go wrong. The young man that took my order was polite while the truck was easy to identify, even from busy Watt Ave. With excellent tasting food, reasonable prices, above average service, and generous hours of operation, I am giving 812 Grill a respectable four star rating. read more

Tried this food truck near my home & I'm very happy I went! Me and my partner split a chicken Sharma & the double cheese burger with fries and a drink. Both had good size to them! The person working was super nice from start to finish. He told us the estimated time it would be done. We were able to sit on some stool & could have eaten there if we wanted to. It's located in a parking plaza with lots of space to park. The Sharma was so delicious! It was flavorful & filled with sauce. My partner said this was his favorite. I really enjoyed the cheeseburger. I think the patty's were seasoned really well and I loved the backyard bbq style. My partner didn't like the burger very much cause he said he didn't like the seasonings, so everyone has their own taste buds! Overall it was a pretty solid place & I would come back! read more

I really liked it. I was very satisfied. The portions are quite good and filling, and the prices are reasonable. I've been living in Sacramento for three years, and I finally found the flavor I've been searching for right here. Thank you.812 grill read more

This place is booooooooooomb!!! You pull in a parking lot, kiiiiinda shady sometimes... you walk up where two men are usually working. They take your order, then give you a little red beeper. They have beef on their menu but not once have they ever had it available. We always get the chicken shawarma. It's out of this world. Their fries, to die for. I'm super weird about chicken and these pieces never fail. The flavor is so savory. 11/10 will always return. read more

The shwarma is above average. The burger is not better than falafel corner, and too expensive for what it is. Overall id rate it a 4, its $$ but tastes pretty good. Shwarma only is what id recommend read more

Simply the best food and service I love this place they should already have. Restaurant the food is damn good

I have been here twice and had the chicken shwarma. They make delicious chicken shwarma and so far have been consistent. The fries are perfectly crunchy. 812 has become a favorite spot. read more

It's a nice decent food truck with few clean items on the menu. I got spicy chicken wings and chicken wrap plate. Spicy wings should be renamed as salty wings. They were so salty that I couldn't eat them but the chicken plate was really good and felt like clean protein. Service was good and I didn't have to wait long for it. read more

Way too slow. Waited over 30 mins for my burger. There was one person waiting in front of me. The burger had so much potential, but the seasoning tasted like Taco Bell. Would not go back. read more

I had this place on my list of places to try, but I didn't plan on trying it today. I was going to the bbq place next door, and they were out of a bunch of meats, so I decided to come here instead. I got the XL chicken schwarma with extra sauce. I love that they have an XL option, for those wanting extra meat. It was very good, but the whole time I was eating it, I kept thinking how amazing it would be if it had bacon in it. I will absolutely be back to eat this again, and to also try the wings which looked really good and crispy. read more

The shawarma is soooooo delicious!!! Perfectly seasoned, juicy, and full of bold flavor!

I had high hopes for this place, but the food was so salty. And they forgot to include the fries that I paid for. But the big thing is just how salty the double cheeseburger was and the spicy wings. All I taste was salt. Will not be going back to place in the future. Good luck to you. read more

It's a food truck on Watt in a large parking lot. The burger was really good. The fries were fresh and I appreciated that most of all.
