    After the original Amar moved around the corner, the owners first turned the old location into a pizza spot and now in a sandwich shop. The main attractions are shawarma and falafel, with some salads and other quick Mediterranean food. It's a decent sized clean counter service spot now, so you order either through a kiosk or with one of the super friendly staff members, and grab yourself one of the tables inside or outside. I've tried the chicken and beef shawarma wraps, and for an extra few dollars, some with delicious seasoned fries and a cup of hummus. The pita is incredibly fresh, and the wraps are filled with a good portion tomatoes, pickles, slaw, and meat. I love shawarma, having grown up Israeli, but I'm not a huge fan of the spice combination they're using here. It's worth checking out!

    I have tried their food to go and now wanted to come over. I have to say Amar and all the sub-Amar restaurants are on point always. Nicolas and family, you own Delray! The beef shawarma reminded me of home, their tahini sauce if the best andperfect balance. The shop has its comfy environment, love the open kitchen and self service option too! Stop by, they have several options

    Self service kiosk or order at counter. The food was fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced! Quick service. They are in a Nice location. Great place to stop in for lunch. We enjoyed the beef schwarma bowl, halloumi sandwich and fries with toom (garlic).

    This is my second time going here. I did not enjoy the first time because i ordered the chicken schwarma sandwich and did not like it at all but i wanted to give them another chance and im glad i did, this time I ordered the chicken schwarma bowl with rice and amar fries and it was delicious! Much better than the sandwich in my opinion. The customer service was also much better today and we got the food very fast and go to sit outside in beautiful weather. Thank you!

    This place just opened on Monday and WOW I don't know how I've gone without it. I got the chicken shawarma wrap with fries and hummus on the side. The wrap was closed on both sides making it easy to eat. The garlic dip inside added so much flavor. The hummus was divine and I dipped my wrap and fries into it. My only complaint is that my fries were cold, but that isn't stopping me from coming back, which I DEFINITELY will. They're a new shop, so I'll give a little leeway, LOL! In the fridge there are dips and spreads for purchase which I will definitely be trying out next time. I took mine to go but there was plenty of seating inside and outside. Check this place out!!!

    Finally something different and delicious on the Ave! I'm a huge fan of Amar, so I had to try this sandwich shop and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. The chicken shawarma wrap hit the spot. It reminded me of NYC street food. The fries had such a different seasoning too. They were packed with flavor. I took my sandwich to go, but you can sit there and eat.

    Decided to try out the new sandwich shop! Really clean inside, friendly staff and prompt service. The chicken shawarma and fattosh salad were 5 stars!!!

    10 out of 10 Amar has amazing Lebanese food. I have been to the restaurant which is fantastic so I knew the sandwich shop would be the same. They have fast casual Lebanese food, yet it doesn't taste like it. We had the Chicken Shawarma that was good, the beef flat bread, which was tangy and sweet, made with pomegranate molasses. The Tahini salad was fantastic, it was a take on Caeser salad with cheese. My favorite thing was the Lamb bowl that had rice, lamb, hummus and pickled beets and pickles, this dish was so good and highly recommended. We had the Naomara dessert which is a spirulina dessert soaked in orange blossom syrup, dense yet good and not overly sweet. Lastly to drink we had the Rosewater lemonade and the Orange blossom unsweetened tea which were both great. Diana and Janet were behind the counter, and they were super nice and explained the meal and ingredients to us. They have many items ready to go if you're in a rush as well. Amar is a cute little shop with great food.

After the explanation we chose a sandwich and bowl with falafel and gyro meat. After waiting for the falafels, which were made fresh, the worker handed them to us and explained how the topping station worked. We also noticed that we didn't have the gyro meat and before we could ask she explained that because all the toppings were vegetarian she wasn't going to put the gyro meat until after we finished with our tops to reduce contamination. We chose our toppings, she put the meat, and we sat down to eat. The falafels were crisp, packed with flavor, and weren't greasy. The gyro meat was also packed with flavor and was juicy throughout every bite. The fries were crisp and the seasoning was a bit overpowering for me, but was perfect for my lunch buddy. Overall, the falafel and gyro meat was very delicious and you can customize your sandwich/bowl however you'd like to find your perfect mix. If you're vegetarian you can trust that the workers care that nothing is cross contaminated. I'll definitely come back again.

    Desert Heat in Suburban Florida…read more Coral Springs is not exactly known for culinary danger. It's polite. It's manicured. It behaves. And then you walk into Falafel Gourmet and suddenly you're not in suburbia anymore -- you're in a little Middle Eastern oasis hiding in plain sight on State Road 7. First thing that hits you? That glass case of baklava. Not two sad trays. Not corner-store pastry vibes. A full shimmering lineup of honey-soaked, pistachio-loaded, syrup-dripping architecture. It's the kind of display that makes you whisper, "I'll pretend I'm taking it home for later." You're not. You're eating it in the car. Then the homemade lemonade. Not powdered. Not lazy. Fresh. Bright. And just when you think you've figured it out -- there's that hint of ginger. Subtle heat. Like it knows something you don't. It cuts through the richness like a blade. One sip and you realize Florida doesn't deserve this level of refreshment. Now let's talk shawarma. Lamb. Chicken. We had both. And this is where things get serious. Juicy. Properly seasoned. Wrapped tight. No soggy collapse halfway through. No bland filler. Just meat that's been treated with respect and cooked like someone's grandmother might actually yell at them if they messed it up. If your shawarma needs sauce to survive, you've already failed. This one doesn't. The service? Warm. Real. No robotic upsell script. You feel like they actually want you there. Like they care whether you enjoyed it. And then the teas. There's a section of teas that will make you want to point randomly and say, "Surprise me." You start asking questions. You start trusting recommendations. You start planning a second visit before the first one is done. This isn't fast food. It's edible hospitality. We walked in curious. We walked out planning to come back tomorrow night. That's the only review metric that matters. Will I come back? Hell yes.

    It's Friday night at 7pm and we Dropped by as we were in the area... which is a little shady which…read moreshould have been my first clue of things to come. This restaurant is Located in a "Class C center "... clue #2. When we entered we were the only people inside as another couple was leaving with take-out. While we waited to order we failed to see any employees for a few minutes.. clue #3. Finally a woman in middle eastern attire showed up & we ordered. 1 Greek salad with Gyro meat & 1 Gyro platter with yellow rice, French fries, hummus & pita bread. 15 minutes later it was ready & we were ready to pay for it. Clue #4. The Greek salad was small & the meat was not those long cuts of delicious lamb, but rather tidbits or remnants of lamb pieces. No Feta cheese to be found either. It was edible but underwhelming. My platter was anything but a platter... because it all was crammed into a styrofoam box with little compartments. The lamb was a super small portion of the same chopped lamb remnants more like lamb hash. The rice was white not yellow...I ordered fries and got a morsel of salad instead....no hummus present but I think it was babaganoush... and no pita bread anywhere to be found! What a disaster! Now I'm mad that I left a Tip. Furthermore the prices on the in store menu are not the same as your final ticket. I was charged $16.99 for my platter when the menu clearly states $15.99. This was the most disappointing Mediterranean food I have ever had in the 11 years living in this area. I usually love supporting local independent businesses but in this case I highly recommend you DO NOT support this Family business until they improve the Food, the service & the prices Charged. We in Boca Raton know better Food and deserve better than this attempt. As a YELP Elite reviewer and a Food & Beverage Executive I'll state that This restaurant isn't worthy of our residents support.

The TV noise was a bit annoying, but I suppose it keeps the restaurant from seeming so empty? Maybe music would be a nice alternative. Despite the too-quiet surroundings, the food was excellent. i ordered the beef and lamb schawarma bowl and my wife ordered the chicken schawarma bowl. Everything has a great taste and was fresh - the grilled meal, the hummus, the pickles, the yellow rice. Please support this deserving neighborhood joint! Order something to go or for delivery, or even stop in for a fast casual meal.

We haven't been back as we'd recently taken to going to a place across the way for felafel etc. Now that that place has also just changed names/owners, I thought I'd try this one again. Frankly, I'm not a big knish eater; although anything wrapped in dough of any ethnicity has always appealed. They have several varieties of knishes -- traditional like potato and kasha and some more "modern" varieties. I chose their hotdog knish. This is basically a long rectangular potato knish wrapped around a hotdog. Even warmed in their microwave/convection oven, the outside dough was flaky as filo can get. The hot dog was completely cooked and better with added mustard. The whole thing is pretty filling because of the mashed potatoes. And for under $4 a bargain of a "lunch".
