Amazing food, even better service. Easily one of the best shawarmas I've ever had. If I didn't live in Burbank, this would be my regular spot. read more

Yeah if u think this looks good come here.... first Took forever for someone to even take my order and originally I was gonna just get a small beef plate but he upsold me on the platter and it sounded good what he was saying so I took him up on his recommendation. Guys says about 20 minutes so I'm thinking the food is gonna be fresh right ? Wrong, this is what i got cold beef cold rice and warm brown salad (: my bf got the wrap and that was honestly good it tasted like A chicken quesadilla from Taco Bell lol that's where I should have went to be honestly :/ $21 dollars for the poop plate and like $10 for the wrap read more

Shawarma Loca - Beef platter - Middle Eastern Near Me - Anaheim, California

This is my 3rd time here. The first two times I've been here I've ordered the mix combo (chicken and beef shawarma) both are delicious. Made to order so expect it to be warm. My favorite sauces is either the garlic sauce or boom sauce. Today I ordered the loca loaded fries with chicken with the garlic sauce and it did not fail. It had a ton amount of chicken with cheese and fries. The service here is phenomenal, everyone here is friendly and is also there to help if you have any questions about the menu. The place is big it has a ton of seating inside and outside. I highly recommend this place due to the fact that food comes out fast also this place stays open late, so if you're coming from Disney and is craving shawarma's come through. read more

I was excited to try shawarma cooked on charcoal but I was disappointed! Beef shawarma was ok , not enough meat in the wrap and flavors are not all there , chicken shawarma was bland , no flavor at all ! Service could be better , they messed up a plate order and had to remake it. Overall it's not bad but I had much better in other places . read more

so hospitable and kind!!! Ray was super sweet and helped me. it was my first time and i would absolutely advise locals to come here! they also gave me an apple, im so excited. read more

Shawarma Loca - apple from this lovely place - Middle Eastern Near Me - Anaheim, California

I live nearby and always smelled the food cooking outside so I decided to try it out. I was a little disappointed. I had a shawarma wrap, which was very basic considering the wait time (about 35 minutes). It seems to get packed but in my opinion, not worth it. read more

Late-night shawarma dreams do come true. Super friendly staff, open late (bless them), and the shawarma took me straight back to the Middle East. Not sure why the reviews are low--maybe people forgot to eat before judging? 10/10 would wrap again. And let me add, PLEASE get Dubai chocolate strawberry cup, you will not be disappointed. read more

Amazing food and great service!! Will definitely come back again soon! Love the freshness. Boom boom!!! Love you loca

Came here for a quick bite after hearing rave reviews from a few friends and I found it to be decent. I ordered the 12' beef shawarma combo which came with fries, a salad, and pickled vegetables. The menu also includes desserts and shawarma bowls. Service was okay - one of my mates' order was incorrect although it was remedied quickly. The interior is sparse and it can be a bit dirty, however, the food was still enjoyable nonetheless! read more

Really really good shawarma. The best I've had in LA honestly all of California. Shawarma was flavorful and toum was perfectly balanced. Not too heavy either. Service was top notch we felt acknowledged by the owner who was genuinely hospitable. Always engaged with all the guests and attentive. Fries were fresh crispy and the strawberry lemonade was the perfect ending read more

Extremely Disappointed with the Service I had a very frustrating experience during my recent visit. I placed my order well before several other guests--at least four people who arrived and ordered after me were served first. Despite waiting patiently, I was the last to receive my food, which made the experience feel disorganized and inconsiderate. Unfortunately, the lack of attention to order sequence and poor service left a very negative impression. I won't be returning. read more

The food was delicious. The food was so good 10 out of 10 coming back every weekend. Wallah the Customer Service was very very, very great! read more

The food is good but I have been here 4 times and payed cash and all 4 times they don't have change and expect to keep $7-8 dollars on just pick up orders! Such a busy place yet never any change?? Interesting read more

Absolutely delicious! I highly recommend the Dubai strawberry pistachio cup --it's out of this world! Everything else on the menu is fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The customer service is also exceptional--everyone is so kind and welcoming. If you're looking for the best shawarma, look no further. This place truly has it all! read more

Service is terrible. The restaurant is dirty. You couldn't sit on the tables they were filthy. The food did not taste fresh and It's not cheap either. There's better shawarma to try in that area. خدمة سيئة طعام لا يقدم حتى للحيوان الوسخ في كل مكان وعلى طاولاته لا انصح احد يجرّبه read more

Both the meat and chicken shawarma were amazingly authentic. Thank you, Abu Muhannad, for your generous hospitality.

I love this place! Best service and ambience for any middle eastern place I have frequented

I recently visited this restaurant and had an amazing experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great dining experience! read more

We had the beef shawarma and it was very delicious. I will definitely go back there again. The staff were also very friendly!

The service is outstanding, and the food is an absolute must try this place is truly next level!"

The food was AMAZING! It was filling and flavorful. On top of that, the service was excellent. The Lime mint drink is HIGHLY recommended, it was delicious and there was a woman in the kitchen that made it fresh. Everything was explained well to us and the man that took our order was very patient with us while we made up our minds. It was warm outside so we ate outside and we got to see how rich the culture is in this specific area. Everyone that came smiled and told us how great this place was and we agreed! We stayed and chatted for 2 1/2 hours while we ate our food, and they checked on us the entire time. And i can't forget about the knafeh, some of the best i've ever had! We will be back soon for-sure. read more

Food here was delicious and the service was great. I ordered the chicken shawarma fries and loved them! The only reason I am giving this place four stars instead of five because it is overpriced and the portions are small. However, I love that this place stays open late and is a nice option for when you're craving shawarma! read more

Great costumer service, Mohamed had great recommendations and a fantastic attitude even though it was 12AM when I passed by, the food here is incredible! read more

Not worth the gas money you'll spend to go They have one kid that doesn't know how to make the food doing everything while the other Arabic guy is sitting in his car chilling. Didn't come in until there was a line of 8 people. Food took 30 minutes, ordered the zinger and the charcoal wrap, they forgot the zinger and didn't give me the charcoal one What a fall from grace Literally try any other place read more

Supper fire really good shawarma! And had a delicious dessert to go with it customer service was really good everyone was super friendly highly recommend this spot read more

I went to Shawerma Loco on the night of 07-08-2025 night and ordered a juice . The person who made it wasn't wearing gloves , which was really off, especially with hygiene rules these days . Hopefully, they'll fix that soon. . And the bananas they use in the juice were really bad too. read more

The food is amazing I recommend the chicken. Restaurant is very clean and good vibes in the kitchen hen

Been coming to this place since they were a food truck and I'm so happy they finally have a storefront now. It's nice to see that business is booming for them. Prices and flavor haven't changed. Despite what other reviews say, I've always had good and friendly customer service. The only time they weren't as friendly was during really busy hours when there was a long line and even then they were not rude to me, just swamped with the rush. read more

Are you ready for a shawarma party?! Great food, music, and people -- BOOM BOOM! This was our first time at Shawarma Loca in Anaheim! Shawarma is a popular Middle Eastern dish that starts with meat stacked in a cone-like shape. It's slowly roasted on a rotating rotisserie and as the surface of the meat cooks, thin slices are shaved off as it continues to rotate.  Shawarma is traditionally made with lamb, but it can also be made with beef, chicken, turkey, or veal. This was my first time trying shawarma and it was delicious! Paired with their flavorful garlic sauce -- omg -- SO GOOD! I loved that their combos also came with a combination of crinkle fries and yummy potato wedges. I LOVE potato wedges! Their drinks were delicious -- it was like a dessert! Topped with fresh fruit like kiwi, mangoes, strawberries, and bananas -- the Avocado smoothie was my favorite. It was sweet, tasty, and everything I needed at the end of this delicious meal! I can't wait to come back to Shawarma Loca for more! read more

Nothing beats good food and great customer service!!!! This is now my husband's favorite spot! They have the best shawarma in town! The sauces are amazing! Great music plays in the background!!! To the gentleman who prepared my kunafa, it was 100/100; thank you! read more

The place looks inviting, but as soon as I walked in with my friend we both felt like we didn't belong there. To tell you how I felt as we ordered sat down then asking for napkins I ultimately knew I wouldn't be back here, why would anyone after feeling like you weren't even wanted here. The fries were good I guess give credit when due, but the main thing I came here for, I mean it's in the name, "Shawarma" I never knew would have thought that the loca part meant they use flour tortillas. They also use like a 3 cheese blend that make it taste exactly like a cheese quesadilla with added protein. This is definitely not what I expected when I decided to tu for shawarma, and they're crazy to call it that, hence the name shawarma loca. The sauce is $.50 cents but I wouldn't get them if they were free. Authentic is all over the walls, but si is some guy shooting up sauce like it's morphine or that sweet H. Avoid this place! Definitely not authentic! I decided to try this place on my way to Brookhurst because I've been wanting to try this place, but I've never been so disappointed by a shawarma in such a long time. I can't get over the name. read more
