    With so many shawarma spots in the area, it's hard to pick the best, they truly are pretty good, but I will say that Hello Shawarma has the advantage because of the beshka sandwich. It's like the Arab version of a Philly sandwich. I'm not Jordanian/Palestinian so this sandwich is a totally new concept for me and we are in love with it. I also love their pickle station. Those peppers and the cauliflowers are my favorite pickles and to have access to all that is a dream. Sometimes I just stop by for the pickles. Then of course, the bowls are delicious as well. Seating is always ample and service is always great. Overall, it's a must stop on your shawarma journey.

    Steak Shawarma Wrap

    i've only been to the Bridgeview location. The place is bright yellow which gives it a nice family friendly feel. The service is fast and friendly, it's pretty casual. I got mine to go, the menu can be overwhelming but the wraps are really popular. I was apprehensive about the price for just the wrap being $12.99 but as you can see, the quantity is huge and it's well worth it. As for the shawarma, the wrap itself was kind of dry which means they didn't use a lot of oil (if any) to toast it. Which is fine but unfortunately i found the inside to be dry too. There is plenty of meat and veggies in the wrap, but the tahini based sauce gives it a dry feel that ends up muting out the big flavors. It is good and definitely leans more on the healthy side, but I haven't craved it since then. Overall not a bad option if you're really hungry and just want a solid wrap!

    Interesting a delicious shawarma! I didn't really understand the concept until I looked around but you order what you want in a kiosk and your food is brought out to you, or handed to you if you're taking it to go. I ordered the Shawarma Saj, and tbh I should've ordered it in a stuffed pita because it comes with more pickles and such. To make up for it, I ordered a side of pickles where I can fully my own container and it was delicious! The sandwich was filling and full of flavor. The fries are also well seasoned and delicious. Friendly staff and clean. Really enjoyed coming here and will do so!

    First time trying this place and it was amazing. We had the lamb shawarma bites with fries and it was delicious!! Will definitely come back!!

    I only heard good things about this spot and had to try it. My shawarma cravings were tingling. Not only was the flavor of the beef and chicken rich - but it was so hearty and fulfilling and fluffy. Not to mention the vibe is pretty cool and fun and the owner is extremely generous and welcoming. He offered a free yogurt drink that they also sell. Please come try some of the best shawarma I've ever had!

    Definitely worth the short trip out of the city. That lamb shawarma is going to bring me back. And the pickles? As tasty as they are pretty!

    Chicken Shawarma Wrap

    Amazing shawarma! This is the best shawarma available in the area. Chicken is juicy, fries are seasoned (I don't know what seasoning they use but it's great, never tasted anything like it), and all the sauces take it to the next level. Service is great, I wish there was more seating. Try this place out!

    Falafel Rice Bowl and Steak Rice Bowl

    The service and food here is amazing! Every time I come it's a 10/10 experience. The staff is extremely attentive and kind. I am a vegetarian and the falafel options here hit the spot. The most recent time I went I got a falafel rice bowl, and my friend got the steak rice bowl. We both loved everything and the portions were large enough to make two meals out of. We also shared an order of fries and they were seasoned so well! All around a really great meal and I will continue coming back to this spot :)

    Beef bashka and chicken shawarma wrap
    Fuad A.

    Went there for the first time really good food the Bashka was the highlight we got the shawarma wrap and the mansaf the mansaf sauce was not something we are used to so it felt like a taste thing but the bashka was awesome and we will drive an hour to have this again

    Best shawarma around! Service is impeccable, and the interior reminds of new school Ramallah shawarma shops. Plenty of options like pita, shrak wrap, baguette, and bashka! Just like overseas. This place is the most comparable shawarma I've had yet. Bashka is a new fad in Ramallah I believe it originated in Jordan? Not too sure but nonetheless I highly recommend it! It's like a Mediterranean cheese steak. I was also pleased to see amba being offered! Another niche i've only ever had overseas. Definitely try it! It especially goes well with beef shawarma. This place is really busy with both dine in and take out so be patient.. it's worth the wait! Not too many people seem to notice the kiosk near the front door to order so skip the line and order there! With it being so busy I was pleasantly surprised at how well the service was. They remembered me from my order and delivered the food to our table, brought us our drinks, and checked in on us midway through our meal. Where else do you get service like this at a walk up n order place?

    Baba Saj was... fine. I tried the chicken shawarma meal and the steak shawarma bowl, and overall…read morethe flavors were actually pretty good. The meat was well-seasoned and tasted fresh, especially the chicken, which was juicy and nicely spiced. The steak had a solid savory flavor too, though it wasn't anything particularly memorable. That said, the bowl came with a lot of pickled vegetables. Way more than expected. If you like pickled vegetables , that might be a plus, but for me they kind of overwhelmed the rest of the bowl and distracted from the meat. I found myself pushing them aside just to get to the shawarma. Portion sizes were decent and the food felt filling, but nothing really stood out enough to make me crave a return visit. The restaurant provided the food quickly for the delivery which was appreciated.

    I got the zinger meal from Baba Saj which is essentially a breaded spicy chicken sandwich with…read moretomatoes, lettuce, pickles, cheese, and their special house made sauce wrapped inside their house bread and served with fries and a drink. They do have a drive thru too which is nice and what I did. Don't expect them to be fast tho, it's not actually a fast food spot. I thought the meal was good! My only complaint was that it wasn't as crispy as I wanted, i think both the fried chicken and the wrap being meh in terms of that crispy bite you'd expect. As you can see it is toasted but it was still more chewy than crispy. Otherwise the flavors are decent and for like a $15 meal, it's ok. The portion is good and it does the job.

    Listen to me, I've driven by this place so many times and wondered what's really good to eat here…read more Most of the time I was intimidated by the traffic here, and how cramped it can seem - but let me tell you, the food is WORTH IT, man! Just the bowl of lamb broth pre-meal is worth an hour of wait. I DREAM OF THAT BROTH, it was that good. I wanted to seek out the chef, and kiss his/her hands, but I don't have bail money, so I didn't. Their grilled fish was also to die for; booked through perfectly, and juicy, with a bunch of beautifully caramelized seasoning giving it a scrumptious yet delicate flavor. Baba Ghanoush can be had as a main, versus a side, the portion is aplenty, and the flavor is top notch; I prefer my ghanoush more chunky, but this is creamy and satisfying too! Overall, thoroughly satisfied, this is the kind of meal that will have you hating yourself for not getting here sooner! Go try it now..... it's not just about Yemeni Coffee, the food is amazing too!

    Small place run as a new startup by amateurs. Need to be run more professional. Very bare…read morefurnished, though food prices are comparable with a good Restraunt. Yemani Adni tea was good, but unfortunately was pre mixed with sugar - no other choice was possible. Appetizer of a breaded chicken Sandwitch was OK, the hummus left a lot to be desired. Only Lamb Mandi was good. Chicken Biryani was too oily. Could not understand the freshly made dessert of dates, cream and others. Service was with a smile. Staff was accommodating. I will give it another try after they have run the place for a few months and hopefully improved.
