    Hi. Sorry my review is an outlier but I am just not seeing the 4,7 rating this place has on yelp. While the food was fast, I surmise that is because they cook their meat hours maybe even a day in advance and keep warm all day. translation - dry meat. I ordered the wrap and while it was grilled on the outside like a grilled cheese burrito. The filling just didn't do it for me. I ate half and had no desire to eat the rest. Ps my other half who never gets sick ate his completely. And did get sick the next day. May or may not be related but seemed like it was. I really wanted to like this place because I love shawarmas

    Lamb Shawarma Sandwich

    I travel to the Middle East and Europe very often, and I'm not sure any of the other shawarmas measure up to this! I ordered a lamb shawarma sandwich. The lamb was moist and flavorful, vegetables complimented it well, hot green sauce also tasted great, and portions are massive at a great price. Not sure what else you'd need, oh and the service was quick and friendly. Bit of advice - I initially went to order through grub hub on Yelp, and it was almost $3 more expensive than ordering in the store with no tip included, so I recommend going in person to order. There are tables to eat, but it's connected to a halal market, and may not be the best date spot, but still a nice casual place not to avoid dining in or takeout.

    This is one of my favorite gems in Anchorage. The samosas, biryani, and lamb or chicken wraps are so delicious you can't go wrong with either choice. The wraps are very filling and come with two sauces that complement the flavor of the meat.

    Chicken shawarma plate

    You are on Yelp because reviews are important. Between Yelp and DoorDash I have never seen so many five star and outstanding reviews for an establishment. Reviews saying the same thing, you absolutely must try their food. 5 stars is not enough! I ordered at 6 PM on a Friday evening via DoorDash. I received my order within 45 minutes and this is coming from the East side to the middle of Spenard. Everything was hot and delicious. FYI- on DoorDash they are listed as Anchorage Halal Marker (sp?) looks like a typo in there but just be aware so you have the right spot. This review is basically to update and support every good review that's already established. The food is amazing and you must must must bless yourself with a meal from them. The spices are blended immaculately, and it is difficult to stop once you've started plowing through a plate of chicken Shawarma. You won't want to share, you won't be able to eat it all in one meal, and you still won't want to share the leftovers. That's OK don't, it's all for you. I will be ordering again posthaste. I can see this as a once a week staple meal. I am so pleased with the availability of authentic Middle Eastern food of this variety and I hope that our community patronizes and protects this gem!

    Lamb Shawarma Wrap
    Ashley G.

    Absolutely incredible! The restaurant itself may look small and inconspicuous, but the flavors that are packed into the food are big and bold!! Being a family run business, the vibes and service in the restaurant are casual and friendly. It is also connected to a store with all types of goodies! I've only gotten the lamb shawarma so far. It's a flour tortilla filled with veggies, pickles, white sauce (tahini?), and the lamb of course. The flavor of the lamb is unbeatable. It also comes with an extra side of white sauce and a spicy green sauce. The green sauce compliments the shawarma so well. I have nothing but positive things to say about My Shawarma House and I hope to try new items soon.

    Mix shawarma plate. So much food for less than 20 dollars.

    Large portion and delicious food. Very affordable. Prob feed 2v person with 1 serving. Quick service. Not a fancy sit down restaurant but you get good value and tasty choices. I would come again.

    Beef and chicken combo. Ask for more of the sauces. You will thank me later.

    Small place but really good food Fast service. Ask for extra sauces and onions to bring the food alive.

    LAMB WITH INJERA and MANGO LASSI
    Sarah M.

    This family owned business with delectable food will keep me coming back over and over. The injera bread was fresh and tasty, plus I was able to order more for home at the store next door. The lamb and tangy sauce were full of spices without being spicy. My vegetarian friend was able to get vegetable food that was just as wonderful as the lamb and goat we tried. I am so thankful to the family working with our dietary needs and getting the food to us quickly. The restaurant was quiet and had plenty of seating, plus the connected store was fun to walk around while waiting for our food. I will certainly be back and recommend My Shawarma House both to locals and visiting tourists!

    A Culinary Delight at Everest…read more Located on Old Seward Highway, Everest stands out as a beacon for lovers of Indian cuisine. As soon as you step inside, you're enveloped in an ambiance that exudes warmth and authenticity, accentuated by traditional décor and soothing music. The waitstaff was impeccably dressed, inviting, and friendly. The menu is a delightful journey through India's diverse tapestry of flavors, and a buffet is available during the week. From the moment we took our first bite of the food, the rich spices and freshly grilled notes were simply mesmerizing. The butter chicken was a showcase of culinary mastery -- tender chicken in a creamy, tomato-based sauce that was perfectly balanced. The garlic naan bread was so delicious, we ordered a second basket! For those seeking something unique, the lamb biryani was an absolute revelation. Aromatic basmati rice layered with succulent lamb, enriched with saffron, was the star of the evening. Every dish is crafted with such care that it tells a story of tradition and passion. What truly sets Everest apart, however, is its impeccable service. The staff is welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely eager to enhance your dining experience. They guided us through the menu perfectly, offering thoughtful recommendations and ensuring that our glasses were never empty. In a world where dining out is often about convenience, Everest restores the joy of eating out with its exquisite food, charming atmosphere, and attentive service, while still catering to those seeking a quick meal by having a drive through. Whether you're a long-time fan of Indian cuisine or a curious newcomer, a visit to this restaurant will undoubtedly leave you with delightful memories and a yearning for more.

They did an impressive job of making all of the food taste authentic, not your typical bistro or fusion master of none style menus. We ordered butter chicken, pho rare steak, basket naan, chicken biryani, and chicken korma. The pho was phenomenal, just like in Vietnam, with an average portion of meat, overall very large portions and great flavor. The butter chicken was soupy and tasty, plenty of chicken, and large enough for anyone to be satisfied. I'm not typically a fan of biryani, but the chicken biryani had the perfect amount of spice, and almost addicting taste and heaping pile of food, enough for 3 meals! I did not like the chicken korma, but my wife loved it - with a unique yet non spicy flavor. The naan basket was also large, with 3 flavors of naan. Overall, the only negative thing was limited parking in the winter, otherwise I will definitely be back!
