    Ordered the mix grills. They ran out of (beef) meat tikka skewer, so it came with double portion of (beef) kebab skewer and one (chicken) shish tawook skewer. TBH the chicken was better of the two (had a wonderful grilled aroma). Was able to swap out the salad for the koobeh (ground meat in a fried bulgar wheat), which was pretty tasty. Finally, the rice was seasoned just right and went well with the bread and proteins.

    I ran into this place just because I was driving around that plaza. It looked cool so I decided to give it a try. OMG I am so happy I did. Everything was absolutely amazing. My husband and I ordered the Chicken Shawarma plate and the Beef Shawarma wrap. First of all, they are huge! The Shawarma was perfection. Crispy on the outside and warm, juicy and filled with flavor. The Chicken platter was super flavorful and has great sides too. I am so glad we found our new go-to spot for this cuisine. Service was great and the place is definitely one where you can go relax and have fun. Go try it!

    I loved the chicken swarma it tasted so good and the chicken had an amazing sweet sauce on it that brought it together. It is a hookah lounge I went during lunch and it was empty. I would order Togo next time or come for dinner. The lunch order took about 20 mins to make but it was worth it.

    Aww she gave me a sample because it's my first time here and it tastes fantastic!!

    Y'all... Tonight I switched it up and got beef shawarma instead of chicken. And extra toum and pickles, my new go to. I rarely eat red meat... yet my serotonin levels were still doing their thing. The sorcery...they marinate their beef in the same (if not similar) spices as their chicken. I still prefer the chicken because I'm not big on red meat but I'm down for getting it again for sure.

    Best shawarma I ever had in the US, I traveled all over the US and nothing compare to it. Authentic shawarma just like the ones I used to eat back home. Will be back for sure and will write another review for shir

    Cousin invited us to try out this place, amazing food best shawarma I've had. You can either sit inside or outside while you enjoy your meal. The food portion are really big so don't order multiple things cause won't be able to finish it

    Amazing food. This is the only place that serves Shawerma Arabie ( ) and it's crazy delicious. Highly recommend and a must try if you are looking for authentic Shawerma or Falafel. They also do catering and party platters.

    It was good experience and good generous food. But they put extra pomegranate molasses, which I recommend to be on the side. The other thing they could make the shawarma better if make it thinner and more roasted.

    The king is here from Syria. It is true this is the real deal. Best Shwarma I ever had better than in Saudi. One bite and I knew these guys had it amazing. Was given Syrian tea while I waited. I got the beef lamb shwarma platter. It was $14 and worth every cent. I will be coming here often amd bring everyone I know. Hidden gem. Thank you. Salam

    My husband and I went to a special 6 Course meal event hosted by Fast Eddy's and Jacksonville…read moreRestaurant Reviews and we had such a great time exploring some of Fast Eddy's food. We started with Hummus and Tata Chips, which was crispy pita chips with a standard (but delicious) hummus. The Tata chips had great flavor, like Stacy's Pita Chips but better! The firat course was White Bean Fahsulia, which was a rich and hearty bean stew that packed huge flavor! Second course was Falafel with Tahini Sauce. These were a nice little bite between dishes. The center of the falafel was light, fluffy, and flavorful! Course 3 was Masaka-Ah served with Timan Asfur Rice. While this dish was good, it was my least favorite of the evening. I ate half of the stew and passed the rest off to my husband, who loved it! Course 4 brought us Dolma's served with Roasted Vegetables. I LOVE stuffed grape leaves and these were seriously on point! Tart and tangy up front followed by a whole lot of savory. Course 5, my favorite, was the Spicy Curry Chicken served with White Rice. This was the dish that made me fall in love with Fast Eddy's food and had me coming back for more. I took a couple bites and got a to-go container to enjoy this later at home. Finally, we reached the end of our dinner and Course 6, dessert, came out. Freshly made, sweet and decadent, traditional baklava. Filo dough, crushed walnuts, butter, and honey. This just melted away once it hit my mouth. I don't eat a whole lot of sweets but this had me closing my eyes and enjoying every bite. Every time I've visited Fast Eddy's the staff has been amazing, friendly, and hospitable. And of course, the place being completely decked out with rock and metal music memorabilia, i feel right at home here. Oh, and there's never a time where I leave that place without an order of the Pasta Anatoli to-go!

    Excellent food! We…read morewere visiting the town and looked for a highly rated unique cuisine and found this place. The place is nice inside, welcoming and selling some cool things alongside the food items. We both had a platter, one with falafels and the other with the marinaded chicken. They played had incredible salad and a red cabbage salad. Both were excellent! The bread was sold and warm and very fresh too. Then there was some white rice included and it was delicious too! It was jasmine rice and very tasty. We will have more items in future visits. Also, the platters came with a cup of their lentil soup, which for us was slightly different as it must have been made with tomatoes. Stop here and give them a try. You will love it!

    I can't even begin to explain how much I loveeeeeeeeee Bodrum. I lived in Sicily and was overseas…read morefor a few years when I was in the Navy, and Bodrum's incredibly fresh food brings me right back there with each and every bite. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu here. My usual go-to will be to start with the Shepherd Salad and one of the Shish Kabob or Gyro platters which comes with your choice of shish or gyro meat, rice, salad, and some kind of carrot or cabbage drizzled with an olive oil mix dressing. Just delicious and hits the spot every time. I've eaten at Bodrum a handful of times, but have ordered for delivery probably a bit more and everything is just as good as if you are sitting right there in the restaurant. However, I do love eating in because the ambiance of the restaurant is wonderful with the owners not leaving out one detail to make diners feel right at home. We are so lucky to have such a wide swatch of Mediterranean restaurants throughout Jacksonville. Bodrum is right there at the top.

    I've been seeing 904 Saffron everywhere lately so I have to try it, right? Ok, now I'm kicking…read moremyself for going so long without this delicious food in my life!! I walked over to the food truck, which was the longest part of my experience with them. The nice man at the counter informed me that I could order on the new digital screens, but asked what I was getting so he could start my order. Incredibly great service! I put in my order and paid right from the menu boards! For the best part is, I put in my phone number and received a text when my food was ready, so I didn't have to listen around for my name. A few minutes later, my food is ready and I'm on my way! It was still piping hot when I sat down to eat five minutes later. Fries were crispy, sauce was tangy and the shawarma was balanced. 15/10!! Overall, make sure you check the out, you won't be disappointed! And if you are disappointed by their food...it might just be you...

After a short wait, my food was delivered, and I noticed a small container of red sauce included with the meal. I wasn't sure what it was at first, so I tried it with my fries. I originally thought it was curry, but it had more of a thin, runny consistency with a spicy kick. It worked okay with the fries, but I chose not to put it on the gyro. Unfortunately, the fries were the biggest disappointment. They were extremely salty and mostly made up of the small broken pieces you usually find at the bottom of the bag. The gyro itself was good, especially after adding some white sauce my friend received with her order. We ordered the exact same meal, so I was surprised that she received three sauces while I only received one. Overall, my first experience with 904 Saffron was lacking. Between the overly salty fries and the inconsistency with the orders, I expected a little more for a meal that cost over $15.e
