It's a rare opportunity where I can give 5 stars. You can definitely tell everything is freshly made and authentic. It seems family ran and can be a little cleaner, especially the pos system. Other than that the food was very on point. Plenty of seating and tons of people ordering here which is always a great sign. They also have outside seating. read more

Service was nice .. but pita was dry, meat was dry. Zero ambience. The guy was nice. Not sure why they have this many reviews. Avoid.

Food came quickly. Service was a 3. Ambiance also a 3. I prefer the shawarma's at Jerusalem bakery so maybe i'm spoiled. All in all it was filling and the 6 inch shawarma was plenty of food. read more

The food here is very good. I got their lamb gyro. It was made fresh to order. The lamb meat was tender. Ingredients were fresh. Price is reasonable. Plenty of tables for groups. read more

Absolutely delicious!! Friendly staff. Very clean establishment. Hummus and Baba ganoush was amazing!

This was the best chicken shawarma I have ever had! The veggies were fresh and the garlic sauce is fantastic. The service was great and extremely kind. This is our new favorite spot in Georgia! read more

I have come other times, and the food was good but the last time I was there to pick up on a Friday around 6PM the place was empty and when I got home the food was dry like it had been reheated from a previous time. The salad was warm when I got home because it was packed in the same boxes as the rest of the hot food instead of a separate box for the salad. I don't know if I will ever go back. read more

Chicken Shawarma, deLISH, feels pretty authentic, I don't even recall being that hungry....nothing else needs to be said

service was excellent, even gave us free samples the food was also great. I recommend!

Ohhh yesss, this place is a gem. Very cost effective and great food. I got the chicken shawarma with baraka sauce and I was so pleased. The pita size is much more generous than most places I've been to - most don't even include the pita! Not pictured is the baklava which is a MUST. Will definitely be going here again read more

Baraka Shawarma - Chicken shawarma w/ baraka sauce - Mediterranean Near Me - Stone Mountain, Georgia

I had a super long day of traveling, I was so hungry. I ordered the falafel via door dash. I couldn't finish it. It was so so so dry. Both the falafel and the pita bread were like card board. I'm still super hungry and can't bring myself to finish eating. I'm so sad and disappointed. I can't even really order anything else because it's a work expense so I'm going to bed hungry. Nothing worse than a disappointing meal after already being tired and exhausted from traveling. Such a bummer. read more

Baraka Shawarma - Super dry falafel & pita bread - Mediterranean Near Me - Stone Mountain, Georgia

I went in here to try halal food in the area. The food was okay. I was disappointed that the only sauce for the shawarma was mayonnaise based. True Garlic Sauce doesn't use Mayonnaise. I was also disappointed bc the only sambusas they offer is beef or lentil as I don't eat beef. I always am on the hunt for a good chicken Sambusa. My Husband enjoyed his Shawarma and his beef sambusa. My lentils Anisa was really lentilly . Customer Service was great. I pray for them much Success. read more

Baraka Shawarma - Combination Shawarma Sandwich - Mediterranean Near Me - Stone Mountain, Georgia

These people left my mom's condo undone. I keep calling and calling and no one is responding. Please help me!!! I need this resolved and I'm being ignored!! read more

I ordered the 2 Regular Falafel Sandwich- Vegan Style.($6.49 each) I also ordered 2 small orders of fries ($1.99 each) (I didn't see unfortunately that there was a large order of fries. I also ordered 2 Sambusa ($1.00 each) and 1 order of baklava ($1.99) Total: $20.48 I think overall the food was decent but I feel like it lacking additional flavor. The best thing I would say was the Sambusa and the fries was good too. I usually get extra sauce on the falafel sandwiches because It what I prefer, but I did not because looking at another ordered that was being made, they put a great amount of sauce but to my dismay unfortunately there was not enough when I got home. It would have made the sandwich a bit better because the falafel were extremely dry unfortunately. The baklava tasted like sugar bread. Not what I am used to. I would go back but probably just for the sambusa and fries, maybe even try the falafel again but it would be sparingly. Overall it's up for you to decide but definitely if it had more of flavor it will be a hit. (Ps also I had way more fries then this I just grab a bit from the pile. ) read more

Great Pizza, mind blowing chicken wings and delicious burger. Highly recommend. Service is very good.

We have been searching for good Mediterranean Food since we moved to Atlanta in 2020, we have finally found it in Baraka Shawarma!! The food is amazing and full of flavor. The best falafel I have had in Atlanta. The staff were extremely nice and ensured are order was correct and timely. We will definitely return to Baraka Shawarma routinely and so should you! Great food! read more

Just purchased the Gyro Plate. It was awful, no taste, the lamb was chopped up, not nice slices. The lettuce and tomatoes were wilted, not fresh. And the pita bread was hard. Just plain awful!! My first time and last!. read more

I had the lamb kabob wrap! The lamb was super tender and seasoned to perfection especially for the price! The young man at the register was very sweet and informative with the suggestions! I've been back twice next time, I'll definitely take pics read more

Sometimes yelp steers you wrong. In the case of Baraka Shawarma, the reviews definitely live up to the food you're chomping down on. I paid Baraka a visit while out and about looking for lunch and this is definitely a hidden in plain site gem. Located in the Memorial center strip, Baraka is in the furthest left corner of these shops. The interior is much larger than I would have thought from the outside storefront, making you and all of your friends having no problem stopping in for a meal. Speaking of meals, I ordered the following: Combination Shawarma ($7.49) Chicken sambusa ($1) Beef sambusa ($1.49) So starting out with the Sambusa, I should first say that all of their sambusa (there's a veggie too) are $1.49 each, but if you buy 2 of them, they're $2.49. These were both lightly fried triangular shaped pieces stuffed with beef or chicken. More veggies are stuffed in with the chicken, as it looks like only carrot slices are found within the beef. Both of the sambusa were delicious, crispy and were bursting with flavor. I'd highly recommend these! The Combination Shawarma gets its name from being filled with both chicken chunks and lamb, and also filled with lettuce, onion, and sauce. The size of the regular is very generous in terms of the food you get. After eating it I was stuffed. Nice flavors, tender meats and an all around fav for me. Located off of memorial drive, in the Memorial Center, there's a couple of exits here and one is a red light exit, in case you want to turn left onto memorial. Parking here is shared and so you'll find a spot i'm sure. I went on a weekday afternoon and even though there was one person ahead of me, it still took me about 20 minutes to get out of there. I'm not sure how staffed they were, but I only saw 2 people, one placing all the orders and one in the rear. Either way, I stood for several minutes before I was addressed. With that said, if you're looking for fast service, that doesn't include Baraka. At the end of the day, I do like Baraka Shawarma, and I was happy to stumble over them. Good flavors, large interior, here's hoping they get some more foot traffic . read more

The staff really cares about you (although a bit more can really help), and is very personable. Food is awesome, and although its a bit simple inside, the food and personality of the owner overpower that. read more

Everything was phenomena! The food, service, and price were on point. So glad we found this hidden gem and will be back often!

Very nice people from the moment you walked in the door and the food did not disappoint. My husband and I Had the lamb Gyro Plate !! My meal was the BOMB best garlic sauce since I lived in Amsterdam...Taste just like was eating in Europe...Authentic Mediterranean food at its finest VERY good we'll be back for more The owner allowed me to sample the chicken gyro very juicy will order next time. Thank you! I'll let the picture speak for itself read more

I ordered the tilapia plate, beef sambusa and baklava through door dash. I wasn't really a fan of the the taste of the tilapia or the rice it came with. It wasn't necessarily nasty, just...not good‍. The fish itself is very bland. The Baraka sauce on it does have a very strong garlic flavor, and that's about it. The flavors are very one dimensional.The salad it came with however wasn't good, and there wasn't much of it. The sambusa had a decent flavor and the baklava was ok. Overall, this isn't this isn't the place for me read more

Good service, our two plates had hot fresh tasting food. Also enjoyed the pistachio baklava.

Wish I could leave a review without a rating, because I have no idea what their food is like - drove there and they were closed way before (over 2h) the listed time. So, hope they update their times read more

Kind of a weird review, but here goes: I have eaten here before. Food is pretty good. No reason not to stop by if you're looking for shawarma. But that's not the reason for the five stars. Today, I made a telephone order from this place, only to discover half an hour later that I wouldn't be able to come pick it up. My conscience told me to call and offer to pay for the food. The staff was very friendly and understanding, and told me not to worry about it. I thought it was a really classy move on their part. read more

I've been looking for a good Mediterranean spot since I moved to ATL. If you're in the same boat, do it do it do it. Wow was the food incredible. I got combination gyro and chicken shawarma plate. Both were delicious. The baklava was out of this world, I'm glad I only got one because I would eat an entire pan of that. The young man and the woman who were working were both incredibly polite and the service was very quick. I'll be back again. And again and again. read more

Very decent spot. Got the gyro wrap which was chill and an appetizer. Typical hole in wall spot. Folks were nice.

Friendly people and delicious food! Love being able to get good meals like this through a drive through, beats all the fast food around here. read more

One word "Yummy!!" I was in Atlanta visiting. While driving around Stone Mountain area, my kids were hungry so we decided to stop at this restaurant. My kids are very picky eaters, but they LOVED the food here. It was so good, we took some to the hotel. The lady, who said her name is Hoda, was very sweet, and she helped us pick the food. Very great customer service. I will definitely will come back again. Yes, I would recommend it to friends/family. Thanks. read more

I have been on a shawarma kick, and I have yet to find a bad restaurant in the area! Baraka is another winner. They've only been open for a few months, and I hope they keep their doors open for many years. My wife and I both tried the chicken shawarma plate. It came with seasoned rice, a small salad, and some pita bread, as most shawarma places do. So delicious. We'll definitely be going back for that meal. I also love Merhaba Shawarma in Clarkston and Arhiboo Shawarma over by the Dekalb Co. Jail. I would say Baraka's chicken shawarma is very similar to Arhiboo's, which makes sense. Supposedly, Baraka used to be in Arhiboo's current location several years ago. I think Merhaba's chicken might be a little leaner than the other two, which is great in its own way. It's hard to pick a favorite. There are a lot of similarities between the three. All three have incredibly flavorful chicken and rice and all three have really friendly people behind the counter. The side salads are different and Baraka has the most seating, if you plan on bringing a group. read more

Food was great, place was clean, the staff were super friendly and polite! Don't judge it until you try it.

I've been back 4 times since I found this place a month ago. Great gyros, schwarma, falafel, baklava....

Wow, what a place! These people are so nice! I'm writing this as I eat the food in the parking lot. I got the lamb sandwich, jumbo, spicy. Some of the best stuff I've ever put in my mouth! The amazing woman up front also gave me a huge sample of the chicken and lamb on basmati rice with their sauces to try and it is so good! Will definitely be coming back. read more

Delicious hummus and best baba ganoush I' ve ever tasted. And the falafel and salad are excellent as well.

My wife and I stumbled upon this place after visiting the World of Coke. Delicious chicken and gyro shawarma. The baba ganoush was also fantastic...probably the best that we've ever had! But our favorite part was interacting with a staff member named Abdul. This southern gentleman provided excellent service and he even let us taste 2 desserts for free (awesome banana pudding - wow!) His friendliness really made us feel welcome. Thank you Abdul! read more
