    Mixed wrap
    Ivey G.

    I saw a reel about this place and knew I had to go. I was craving shawarma and this place completely satisfied that. The staff is friendly, the chicken wrap was amazing, but skip the fries because the grilled pita was amazing. The hummus was good but I would have loved a drizzle of olive oil on top. And the only thing missing was a true spicy sauce. But an employee I talked to said to try the red pepper dip next time and that it has a kick. Overall I will definitely be back. The food took a little while but they were busy which I love to see for local places.

    Ordered take out recently from Alhambra Shawarma. Had their chicken beef wrap and it was delicious! Also liked their pita bread and their hummus and garlic sauce. Worth checking out. Glad to have this option in Taylorsville to add some variety.

    Babaganoush Box
    K S.

    Really decent mixed shawarma, ingredients tastes fresh, and was filling enough. However the star of the show was the garlic sauce, which was fantastic. We also got the babaganoush box, which was okay, probably not something I would get again and the fried pita was just too oily. Also got a slice of the baklava and was definitely let down for the price. Service was good, ambiance is more of a fast food spot. Would come back for the shawarma.

    They say it's garlic pita bread but this is tortilla. Very disappointing

    My wife and I went to get Shawarma for the first time at this restaurant but we were disappointed after finding out that it's not the original shawarma and they are selling Venezuelan burritos but calling it shawarma. We asked if we can add fries to the burrito shawarma but they refused to give us that option.. their excuse was that it will "break the pitta aka tortilla" if the added in it but that wasn't true because they could have. I have ran lots of restaurants in my life time but if you're trying to serve an item that is from a different culture make sure you keep it authentic and not make it your own burrito and calling it shawarma. It's misleading!!! In conclusion, as for service, if a customer is asking for a request and it's possible to do it, make sure you do anything you can to provide that service because it will benefit your business later.

    10/10 no discussion about it We order a few items (how we do every place we go for the first time) and everything was soooo delicious.. I ordered the mixed shawarma and it had so much flavor so authentic!! Hummus and pita chips delicious and perfect .. pistachio baklava that looks so delicious tasted just how it looked!! Almost forgot to mention the kibbeh so delicious you must try it!!

    Falafel-Pepper Burger Box, mixed Shawarma Wrap, 1/2 Super Fries Box mixed meat
    Rebecca C.

    Great local fast-ish food!!! The meat is extremely flavorful and tender and the ratio of filling to wrap was perfect. The falafel burger was ... I have no words, it was one of the best things I have tried and it was a great vegetarian option. The fries were crispy and had plantains which was different but the flavors just worked. They have a limited menu which is great because you don't feel overwhelmed with so many options. The staff is friendly, we got the food to go but it seems a great place to dine in. I will definitely be back!

    Delicious beef shawarma and French fries
    J S.

    Delicious shawarma restaurant! The cashier was very friendly, they provide a military discount! Restaurant was quiet, plenty of seats. The food was excellent, I had the beef shawarma with fries. Wow, shawarma was tasty and huge. Fries were crispy and seasoned well, so much food I couldn't eat it all. Definitely recommend eating here.

    What a fantastic new addition to the area! We just got back from Istanbul earlier this year and have been craving good/authentic Mediterranean/Middle Eastern shawarma which is near impossible to come by in SLC. Very pleasantly surprised at how authentic this was, quality of the food was great, fries were crispy, all the sauces were perfectly balanced, Muhammara was off the hook- perfect mezze and the chips even held up in the fridge and were still perfectly crispy the next day. The boxes were a good size and pricing was fair- will certainly be back whenever I'm wanting authentic shawarma!!

    Super Fries Box (mixed beef and chicken)

    I saw this place on an Instagram reel and I knew this is definitely food I would love. I had high expectations and I was NOT disappointed. It was absolutely DELICIOUS! The only complaint was the meat to fry ratio on the loaded fries but it was still a really decent amount. The sauces were scrumptious. I loved the garlic on the fries. Food was fast, fresh and very flavorful. The service was top notch! They were warm and welcoming. I appreciated how enthusiastic they were about their food. It was a great experience! It is a place you could go in to and feel like you are just meant to be there! Try the gelato! Yum! The restaurant itself is a little bit dingy.... Feels like a hole in the wall if you will. That did not take away from the experience though. We will absolutely be returning for more scrumptious food and amazing service!

    Combo box
    Rachel B.

    I've been looking for good shawarma in Utah and I finally found it! I had the beef and chicken mix and it was delicious. The thin pita wrap was perfect and the filling was so saucy. I went with the combo that included pita and hummus and a drink. It was more than I could eat in one sitting but it comes in a convenient little box that made it easy to take my leftovers with me. They also had falafel and a falafel burger. If you need halal options you are safe to go with the chicken. This was definitely worth going out of the way for and I'll be back anytime I'm in the area.

    The chicken shawarma is better than the beef. Not the best shawarma I've ever had, but still pretty good. The pita bread is great.

    Let me just say I am a Jacks connoisseur. I am from California so there was always a Jacks within a…read morequick drive and was a staple in high school when Jumbo Jacks and chicken sandwiches were $1. I still find myself going to Jacks when I'm out of state and roaming the lands in the middle of the night and need a bite to eat. While I come here often due to random cravings, a noticeable short line or not wanting to go anywhere off the path back home, this (and the other locations) need a vast improvement on several things. My excitement for Jacks dwindled quickly as I visited each location. If things improve, I'll gladly update this review. My go to items at any given time of the day: Sourdough Jack with no tomato and curly fries, extreme sausage sandwich, eggrolls (I KNOW but they're good dipped in ranch), Ultimate Cheeseburger with bacon, chicken sandwich on sourdough bread, Oreo milkshake. Each of these items have come out either luke warm or made freshly fast-food style. I have had curly fries so crispy they were inedible. I have had soda that wasn't consumable due to it tasting like the syrup for the soda wasn't mixing right or was out. I have been charged for subbing a bun out with another because they were out of the bun for the burger. It's always something that is lacking each time I go outside of actual breakfast hours. Service is SLOW. I'm not sure how you have all those people on a shift and the orders cannot get out quick enough. The line in the drive thru is ridiculous. The wait inside is ridiculous. Ordering on the app isn't better since it lies and says your food will be ready in 7-10 minutes when it's actual more 20-30 minutes. Some type of flow inside needs to happen in order for there to be order to the chaos. Customer service is a hit or miss. Some are friendly and understand no one wants to wait so long in line but others are just transactional and look irritated that we're there to spend our hard-earned money where they work to be able to do the same. Location is convenient - right off a main road and not too far from Mountain View Corridor.

    The food would be so good, IF IT WAS WARM. Every time I decide to give this location another shot…read moreI'm vividly reminded why you should stay away. They are understaffed and underworked. It's not uncommon to have the guy at the drive thru make and bag your food, while working the counter. As I type this I have been in the drive through line waiting to pay for fifteen minutes.
