    Inside the restaurant

    First time checking out this halal spot in Gaithersburg! It's fast casual spot where you get shawarma wraps to bowls. The service is fast and made fresh to order. We got the supreme chicken shawarma and the loaded fries. Both 5/5 loaded and filling! The flavors are fantastic! I think next time I'll make mine a little more spicy! Definitely worth checking out and getting a meal there!

    I keep passing this place everytime I go Pilates around the corner, and finally made a pit stop! Place is clean, ppl behind the counter were all smiling and welcoming. Ordered togo for create my own bowl with half rice/half greens (girl needs some balance lol) , I was hoping for lamb but I guess only beef/chicken available so opted in for beef. Added all needed toppings and finished with spicy garlic and harissa sauce. Smells so good and delish! I ended up took a bite in the car, haha. I will definitely be back to get lamb bowl and hoping they're available next time!

    Food served hot and fresh. Especially if you order the falafel bowl or fries. They fry them to order! And so many toppings to choose from too finish off the bowls. I love the spicy sauce and garlic sauce. Either by themselves or together, the sauces were great. Also don't pass up on the hummus, it's sooooo good.

    Just tried &Shawarma for the first time and it was amazing. Everything was super fresh with plenty of options to choose from. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and they moved quickly even with a decently long line. I'll definitely be back.

    Sooooo happy I got to try this place, because it's absolutely banging. I'm going to try to come here anytime I ever have a cava craving because I want to support more local/small businesses. I got the beef bowl and it's delicious. Really appreciate that it's unlimited topping so I got to go off. It's also a great place for vegans and vegetarians. They offer their delicious garlic sauce as a vegan option. Not pictured, but I also had their za'atar fries which were also delicious! The restaurant itself is very clean and welcoming, and the staff are very nice.

    Gyro Rice Bowl with Spicy Garlic Sauce and Tzatziki.  Ordered half rice and half lettuce.
    Jeff B.

    First visit here for lunch this Sunday afternoon. This is like a Cava/Chipotle "bowl" place - essentially you can get a bowl or wrap with chicken, lamb, gyro meat or falafel (which I believe is vegan). We had the design-your-own Chicken Rice Bowl and the Gyro Rice Bowl. Although it's called Rice Bowl, you can get it with lettuce, rice or half and half. Both were delicious. My partner and I appreciated the amount of meat in each bowl. Although the container appears smaller than a Cava bowl, it was very heavy by weight and chock full of the ingredients we picked. My partner took some of their meal home for dinner. Among the ingredients available for the design-your-own are tomato bits, chick peas, pickled onions, red cabbage, turnip, and a number of other items, including hummus (regular or spicy), tzatziki and sauces. For the chicken, my partner got the spicy hummus and the regular garlic sauce, which they enjoyed. For the gyro, I got tzatziki and spicy garlic sauce. The spicy garlic sauce was delicious and lived up to its name. The tzatziki tasted cool and fresh. Very nice. There was a generous portion of tasty gyro meat. The ingredients tasted fresh and everything combined nicely. I think they are a bit heavy handed on the sauces. You'll see that in the pictures below. I would consider asking for at least some of the sauce on the side next time. But I suppose that's personal preference. As I said, the sauces were delish. The atmosphere is nice. It's light and comfortable with music playing. There's a soda dispenser for refills with your drinks. The Staff were friendly and helpful.

    Custom falafel bowl (vegan)
    Molly K.

    This business is brand new and already had a nice lunch rush. Everyone is clearly excited for the falafel and shawarma. The inside has a generous amount of seating although most orders for this business were to go. The restaurant operates similarly to Chipotle where you can build your own bowl or pita. You can also select a chef bowl/wrap where the toppings are chosen for you. The staff was extremely nice! I asked them what all was vegan and they made sure to double check all the ingredients before answering me. All their toppings and the falafel is vegan. Also the vegan garlic sauce and the harissa are vegan. I made my own bowl with just about every veggie topping, greens, falafel, and vegan garlic sauce. They were pretty heavy handed with the garlic sauce so next time I will ask for a light amount of sauce. The bowl is a complete flavor explosion! I am so in love!! I wish the portion size was larger but my bowl could not fit another topping so I know they packed it as much as possible. It is just smaller than a meal from CAVA for a similar price. The flavors though are what would make me go back here over CAVA. I already want to go back for seconds. Right now the business is working through some online ordering kinks and that is the only flaw at the moment with this new business. I am sure everything will be running flawlessly by next week and I cannot wait to bring lunch back from here more often for myself and coworkers. Thanks for a killer vegan meal and best of luck to this new business!

    Lamb rice bowl, chicken rice bowl
    Joevi F.

    Food was very fresh and there are plentiful options for toppings. Lamb rice bowl and chicken rice bowl are very fairly priced at $13 and $11 for the later. Servings are very generous as well. The service was good also, employees were very welcoming. I will be coming back to try other menu items.

    Falafel bowl
    Hilary T.

    Decent new Mediterranean bowl/wrap place with some upsides, some room for growth, and an unfortunate location (by a Cava) that invites unfavorable comparisons. I tried the falafel bowl with half rice and half salad, and, daunted by all the options in front of me, just went with the toppings for the falafel rice bowl, which are: hummus, parsley salad, tomatoes, cucumbers, pickled turnips, pickled red cabbage, chickpeas, roasted eggplant, and tahini (instead of mild garlic sauce, because I planned on being around others in the next couple of days and thought I'd do them that kindness). The good: fresh ingredients; vegan and vegetarian options; a strong hand with seasoning; some pickled ingredients (red cabbage, turnips) that Cava doesn't offer that add a lot to the bowl; assertive flavors; great falafel texture inside and out; very good hummus. The bad: the falafels were possibly 57% parsley, which is a lot of parsley, especially given that parsley is sort of an "oh, forgot that was there" herb; an overwhelming reliance on garlic in their sauces (including, alas for me, the tahini); smaller bowls, less sauces and add-ins than Cava; possibly over-seasoned? Serviceable but not a place I'd hasten back to.

    Lamb Shawarma bowl
    Pamir R.

    And Shawarma is your average build-your-own-bowl spot. You can pick your protein, which comes from a container that was presumably carved several hours ago off of the shawarma that is displayed in the back of the kitchen. The toppings are varied, as are the sauces. In terms of flavor, the lamb was incredibly disappointing. It was dry and vaguely warm, and a fairly small portion relative to everything else. The rest of the bowl was fine, but nothing to obsess over. I cannot see myself coming here over any of the other Mediterranean bowl spots, especially because the one thing And Shawarma should have going for it (freshly carved, tender meat) is underwhelming. It is okay for a quick lunch, but I probably will not be coming back.

    Chicken Shawarma and bowl with spicy garlic and schug sauce (spicier). Mashed roasted eggplant on the left side of the bowl.

    I ordered a chicken bowl and I did not like it as they put too much garlic sauce on it. If I ever return I'd get the sauce on the side.

Butter chicken Daal (lentils) Veggie biryani Chickpea masala We should've expected it, but we also received a ton of basmati rice, and got the lemon cardamom and eggnog tres leches churro cakes. Every single item was a 10/10, honestly. The butter chicken was so creamy and cashew based, and was easily my favorite item, though everything was fantastic. This might be the best Indian food in Maryland... I'm not shy to say that given how much I've had (though there is still plenty more to try). Applause. Give this place several claps for having amazing vegan desserts and amazing Indian food. If you haven't had it yet, what are you waiting for?!

So one random week I decided to contact them just to inquire about their prices, flavors and such (I found this info on their website). They actually didn't respond until over a week later, and I realized it was because they were out of the country! So they let me know when they would be returning and so I contacted them again then. By some insane twist of fate, the day they said to contact them also happened to be National Donut Day -- obviously a sign. It turns out they don't have delivery right now (probably because they just returned?) so I had to arrange a pickup. They're $4 a pop, so I decided to just get half a dozen: Cinnamon Sugar Chocolate Oreo Mango Pistachio Rose Raspberry Pina Colada I arrived at the house, waited a few minutes, and the man came to the door with the donut box in hand. The donuts looked awesome too! Then I went to my sister's and surprised them with vegan donuts for the special day -- great feedback all around. I didn't get to taste every single one, but the chocolate oreo, rose, mango pistachio and pina colada were delicious!! The flavors popped, the texture of the donut was light and had me not feeling too guilty, and they looked nice! It was totally unexpected to find a vegan donut spot so close to my sister, and to be family-run is lovely! They have an interesting history on their website, you should give it a read!
