They have an interesting menu and I had a tough time deciding what to get and asked the guy working behind the counter what he suggested and he said their shawarma wrap, which I ordered, with chicken.

Sweet, tangy, savory -- no weak notes. The move, though? Add chicken and bacon.

The staff creates a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel less like a customer and more like family. This is how shawarma should hit.

Their menu is quite large with an interesting variety of foods. I've only ever ordered on Door Dash and have never had any issues. They're also on GrubHub and UberEats.
