    Excited to see a new food truck in Ridgefield and this one is a winner! My boyfriend and I decided to try it out after hearing good things and we were definitely not disappointed. We got the kebab wrap, a side of two pitas, and a side tzatziki sauce. The kebab wrap was amazing! The meat is so flavorful with a little spice and the veggies were fresh and crisp. The meat to veg ratio was perfect. Plus, it was huge!! You get a lot of food. The tzatziki sauce was also very good, tasted fresh and light. We ate it with our pita bread and it was tasty. Also not to mention, the service was great. Who I assume was possibly the owner, he was very kind and friendly. Overall super awesome addition to downtown Ridgefield. I took some menu photos but we were too excited to try it we forgot to take food photos. Next time for sure, as we will definitely be returning. One of the better food trucks we have tried in a while. Plus they are open until 8pm!

    New food truck in downtown Ridgefield! I heard about this place yesterday and had to get my butt down here to try it out! Downtown Ridgefield has several food trucks and all of them are fantastic so I had very high hopes for this new addition and it did NOT disappoint! I got a rice bowl with lamb. The lamb is a blended ground meat similar to gyro but chunks and not sliced. Was super flavorful and moist! Hummus and Tzatziki sauces were great. Serving size was generous! Enough to share if your not starving (we weren't so we shared). Friendly service, they were busy for just opening which was a good sign! We wandered and checked out tha seating areas while we waiting and it was quick for our pager to go off and we picked up our food! Everything on the menu looks fantastic - can't wait to come back and try more! This is a wonderful addition to our little downtown.

    We have a new food truck in Ridgefield and it's fantastic! Shawarma Refuge serves high quality, delicious Middle-Eastern food and the portions are very generous. Between the five of us, we tried the chicken shawarma, beef shawarma, lamb shawarma, falafel, dolmas (grape leaves), hummus and salad. Every item was great! Do yourself a favor and try Shawarma Refuge.

    1. Chicken Shawarma and 8. Beef Gyro

    Large portions and fast preparation/delivery. Absolutely delicious! Major flavor bomb

    The Baklava!!!

    Shawarma Refuge in Ridgefield seriously deserves the shoutout. I stopped by their food truck on 113 S Main Ave and was blown away -- not just by the food, but the whole experience. We tried both the beef and chicken shawarma and wow -- the meat was incredibly flavorful, juicy, and clearly high quality. The portions were huge, especially for the price. You can tell a lot of care goes into how they prepare everything. But what really surprised me was the baklava-- hands down the best I've ever had. Super fresh, packed with nuts, and just melts in your mouth. Not overly sweet, just perfect. Also want to mention Bassam the owner -- super friendly guy who really takes pride in what he does. He actually takes time to talk to customers and make sure everyone's happy. That kind of service is rare these days. All in all, if you're anywhere near Ridgefield and love Middle Eastern food, this place is a must. I'll definitely be going back . Shawarma Refuge

    Kabab Gyro. The meat is so tender, seasoned to perfection.

    I was excited to try the chicken gyro. Unfortunately the chicken was dry and crumbly. Last time we had the beef Shawarma it was excellent

    Nothing to write home about. The shawarma is dull and the hummus is bitter. Pita house in battleground blows this place out of the water.

    Had a really good time at this place a few days ago. The flavors were pretty amazing and the…read moreportions were huge. I got a burrito and could have made three meals out of it. I also got to sample some really amazing tequila while i was there for pretty cheap. They carry Acre Largo and the G4 lineup so I was very happy. The salsas were house made and of the five we tried, every one was really good. I think our favorite was the roasted tomato salsa that comes with the chips. The service was quick, the food was quick, and the decor is upscale. After the meal i had the pleasure of talking with all the staff. The cook works at the Ridgefield farmers market as well during the season. The woman i talked to was telling me about tequila tastings with some amazing distillers. And our server was a lot of fun and did a great job. The combination of good food, good conversation, and good tequila really won me over on this place. I hope i get back soon to try more of the menu.

    This was a good meal. It was super quiet when we came it, I'm surprised as the food is pretty good…read more We ordered at the counter and grabbed a table. The margarita came out fast, it was the perfect level of spice and flavor (pineapple jalapeño). The food was out shortly after that. The tacos were cooked beautifully, the fish was battered well and the toppings were fresh. The shrimp was amazing. The shrimp were massive, cooked well, still nice and juicy. The team was really friendly, and the place is clean. Great food, great service!
