    The food was incredible. I got the mix meat tray and husband got the chicken. All three meats were delicious. The "white" sauce was described as being like tzatziki - it has the feel of tzatziki but I'd describe it more as a creamy garlic sauce (still delicious). We both got tabouleh, it was fresh and tasted good although we agreed it could use just a little more flavor, maybe garlic or salt. Our total came to $41 but you do get a lot of meat. The food took a little while to come out but we suspect because they had several online orders ahead of us, plus it was worth the wait. Our only complaint is the pita does not appear to be made in house (we saw the premade pita's on the counter). Oh and the hummus was delicious, so fresh tasting. Highly recommend this restaurant and we'll be back to try more item!

    Never fails ! The chicken shawarma is banging ! And the falafel is just as crispy as it is supposed to be. Reminds me of back home. My mother also loves their hummus and she's a hard Arab food critic to please. Whenever I'm feeling homesick I make sure to stop in. The ambiance, the Arabic music it amazing.

    Scott's Shawarma is a great spot! Near the Science Center, it's an easy spot to grab takeout (or sit inside at one of the few tables). Since Toast wasn't working, we called in our order. Sadly, most of our orders were wrong, but it still tasted good. The spice on the chicken pops! The tortilla that the sandwiches come in is excellent. I enjoyed my chicken shawarma sandwich with spicy garlic sauce, pickled cucumbers, lettuce, and onions.

    The best part of the restaurant was the kibbeh, even though it was very deep-fried, but the spices in it were very good. We have the Shawarma platter with chicken and the tabouli was very tasty. The garlic sauce needed more of a punch.

    I've always loved the food from Scott's but glad to have this new location. Food is hot and fresh and ready quickly when ordered online.

    Exactly what we were craving - lots of food for an affordable price in an accessible area to where we were staying for the weekend in The Fan! I absolutely loved the pickled radish, pepper, and onion as a part of the Chicken Shwarma w/ Saj Bread - the perfect contrast to some otherwise super chicken drenched in a tangy sauce. Every bite felt like you were getting every flavor that was promised when I ordered. Generous helpings of everything on my girlfriends order and I could not get enough of the sauces that came with. Reliable for takeout any night of the week with quick service.

    Amazing chicken and beef shawarma, that tasted authentic and fresh. Friendly staff members made the atmosphere very pleasant and positive and the service was very quick! 10/10 would recommend to a friend!

    Super quick pick up! Pretty good! Wish pita came on the side. At first I was shocked it was so expensive, I paid $16 for my platter, but honestly it's so much food I probably will make 3 meals out of it

Cocktails were great and served in a proper glass. Draft beer was cold and crisp. Hummus was unique, although the pita was not so great.

    I loved coming to Memi's with my mom. We are Libyan, so it's nice finding more North African places…read morein Richmond. Memi's is a beautiful shoutout to Egyptian dishes. I loved seeing some classic staples here too. The owner is beyond kind and sweet. She is so passionate about what she does here, we loved meeting her. Here is what we tried: Mulukhiyah with Chicken: What an iconic Egyptian soup! How cool to find it in Richmond too. It was really good. The chicken wasn't for us, but the soup was just right. Lamb shank: While the spices and flavors were all right, I think the lamb itself was a bit off for us. This could've just been the night we went. Koshari: My mom's favorite dish of the evening. Something you can't find easily in Richmond either, this was really nice. Kunefa: We finished our evening with dessert, and it was a little overcooked for us. I adored the heart shape. They have a lot of yummy things on their menu. The service was great here too. I am excited to return to try more.

They weren't dry at all, which is a rare find, you could tell the herbs and chickpeas were fresh and well-seasoned. I paired them with their creamy hummus and a drizzle of tahini, and the textures worked so well together. The portions were generous, the service was remarkably quick, and the staff made me feel right at home. If you're looking for an authentic spot that doesn't cut corners on quality, this is it. I'll definitely be coming back to explore more of the menu!

I asked for tabbouleh as the side, and was told that only rice or Greek salad were available. So I said on to Greek salad. The limitations on the menu were disappointing, although I suppose this location probably doesn't see a lot of traffic on a typical Sunday. I was the only person in the place. The food was quite tasty even though it wasn't what I was hoping for. I would give a 4 to the food and a 1 for ambiance and service. So landing on a 3 is pretty generous. Will I try again? Maybe. It is an area that I am in frequently. But I might try Scott's Shawarma's other location (I think it's their first/main location) before coming back here.
