Service was quick and very friendly. The food was DELICIOUS. We customized the chicken shawarma and there was no issue with that, and it was extremely juicy and filling. The baklava is also really yummy. Will come back again! read more

Mr Shawarma - Mediterranean Near Me - El Cajon, California

Mr. Shawarma and his crew 6 some tasty food. I stopped in for an early dinner before the rush. I had a Middle Eastern Pita stuffed with beef shawarma, pickles, tomatoes, onions, parsley, sumac, and tahini sauce with side, and I choose seasoned waffle fries. The beef shawarma was tender and tasty, and the pita came stuffed with a good amount. I like the tahini sauce it was flavorful and not overly done. The onions and pickles worked very well in this pita sandwich. I would have liked it better if they would warm up the pits bread. It was cold and gave a dry texture as a result. They should warm it up in the hot griddle they use. The waffle fries were great. They were crispy and well seasoned. They were great eating with they Jajeek sauce with yogurt, cucumber, and mint. The service was very nice. They young lady at the counter was very sweet. I look forward to returning. read more

I had to try it as my cousins tried it and they said it was good So we came around 2 PM Only few people was trying to order Had only two workers. One was new so slightly overwhelmed It took around 20-30 minutes to be ready Beef Shawrma was good but slightly salty The chicken Shawrma was bland Overall about 8/10 By the time we left more woekers came to help out Certainly decent food but not the best shawrma I tried in the area read more

The Buffalo wings were really good. They tasted smoky and had a little kick to them but not too spicy. I wasn't a fan of the eggplant salad. It tasted fermented and tasted okay. It took awhile for me to get my food I think because of a lot of DoorDash orders. It's located in a little shopping plaza. Parking is a little tough but plenty of seating inside. read more

great service and food! The staff was friendly and helpful. I also appreciate that they are open late.

Wow. The rice alone was worth the trip. Our group had lamb, beef, chicken and falafel, in a bowl, a plate, and wraps. It was all delicious. The meat was tender and everything was so flavorful. The restaurant itself was staffed by friendly guys who clearly know what they are doing. We enjoyed the music and the quirky mural in the dining area. Definitely a gem in El Cajon! read more

So delicious! After the first time I went here I was hooked and now I go pretty often. I order the Mr Shawarma salad with half rice. Everything is soooo flavorful and the plate looks so beautiful. The salad, the chicken, the rice, the garlic sauce; it all goes so well together! The cashier is so nice too and even remembered my order. I have yet to try anything else on the menu but I definitely will. read more

Mr Shawarma - Mr. Shawarma Salad with rice - Mediterranean Near Me - El Cajon, California

Ordered online at 642. It said the order was ready at 704. I arrived at 706 to pickup the order. It wasn't ready, and they said they didn't receive the order, even though my card was already charged for it. I showed them the order confirmation and they said they'd start making it "right away." Over the next 45 minutes, I watched as numerous customers came in, ordered, and received their food. I definitely felt like I was put dead last in queue. I attempted to check back in numerous times and was mostly ignored. When I finally received my order, it was wrong. They completely missed a main item (burger and fries). I brought up the issue, and he said "We can make it, but it's going to be a few minutes." After waiting 45 minutes for two items, I didn't feel like waiting anymore and left. $50 for two shwarmas and some fries, plus a 45 minute in store wait after ordering online. Unbelievably disappointing experience. read more

Delicious and satisfying. The service was friendly. I got a salad with beef and the chicken plate. Gave up sweets for lent but next time I'll get the baklava. Looks delicious. read more

The shawarma was disappointing. The chicken lacked spices and was very dry. Overall, not a good experience.

Delicious Shawarma and Great Service! The shawarma was so tasty--juicy meat, fresh veggies, and yummy garlic sauce. Everything was cooked just right and full of flavor. The employee was very kind and helpful, which made the visit even better. I'll definitely come back again. Highly recommend! read more

My sister and I stopped in to try Mr Shawarma because we haven't had this kind of food before. The staff were very friendly and helpful when we ordered. We ended up getting a Chipotle chicken shawarma with fries and a Lemon cilantro beef shawarma with salad to share. While we were waiting for our food they brought us some hummus to snack on which was yummy. The shawarma plates were both really good! Super fresh and flavorful. I will definitely be back read more

Mr Shawarma - Chipotle Chicken Shawarma & Lemon Cilantro Beef Shawarma - Mediterranean Near Me - El Cajon, California

First of all the food is delicious and not greasy. The chicken shawarma with fries is my fav- crisp and juicy. The portion sizes could be a little more giving for the price. The service is also what brought the stars up as everyone was warm in both personality and attentiveness. As far as the ambiance, none of the tables available were clean to sit at, but people were in and out of the place non-stop so I could understand some slack. The place received my 5 stars because on top of an excellent flavored chicken shawarma sandwich, and yummy tasting fries, they nailed the white sauce that comes with the shawarma (not overly garlicky like other places). read more

Delicious hot food. Amazing friendly customer service. We will be back again !

I'm very torn about this spot. The chicken shawarma is bomb, employees are nice, and being able to order ahead is a major convenience, BUT they are sooo inconsistent. The first time I came here was perfection- order was ready on time, everything was fresh, and everything was prepared as ordered. But every other time after that there was always something wrong with my order. For example, I ordered ahead and still had to wait 30 extra minutes for my food, they gave me Nutella crepes instead of Nutella baklava, I received dry, bland beef shawarma, and was given 2 soggy pieces of Nutella baklava ($6.99 btw) when their website says you get 3. As a customer, I'm able to forgive mistakes bc i understand that restaurant/food industry is hard work. But it's hard for me to look past there being a problem every time I order from here. Perhaps they don't have a system down yet, but the issues are easy to catch if there was attention to detail. That being said, I will continue to support this business because I have yet to find another place that makes a delicious chicken shawarma but I'll be coming here less frequently. read more

Great servicr, great food. Ordered the chicken shawarma and beef shawarma. Generous portion size.

The double trouble was killlerrrr. Will for sure be back for that. The young man was working the cashier and cooking. He had a great attitude, was working fast and making great food. Respect to him! Not the best ambience... basic fast casual vibe, but the food is well worth a visit. read more

I came here late at night around 10 pm with some friends to grab dinner takeout. Parking was easy as they have a parking lot and there were plenty of spaces. The young lady working the register was friendly and provided great service. She explained to me what the sauces were and let me pick which Baklava to take home. I ended up ordering two hamburgers in addition to the Baklava and they were the bomb! You can taste the fresh ingredients and they were huge! One half was the size of my hand. They do cut the burger in half for you, which I appreciated cuz there was no way I could eat the entire burger in one sitting. I'm not usually a sauce person but the sauces added the extra oomph needed to knock the food out of the park. Get it on the side if you aren't sure. I ordered the Habibi burger and Hangover burger, both delicious even days later. I ended up splitting them into 4 meals, lmao. The price was reasonable too. Totally worth a visit. read more

Ordered a rice bowl (which was not pictured) but they really pack it up with meat! I ordered it with lamb and beef and the meat was tender and flavorful!

The food was soooooo good! The hummus was so good & creamy. The lemon cilantro beef was exquisite! Customer service was amazing! Had to tip in cash again after I tipped with the original order on the card. This is because, the server, who is wroking the register, kept coming by asking if everything was good & even offered some spicy sauce, which I didn't know they had. That was sooo god as well!! Will be coming back to try all the plates in the near future! read more
