    I was looking for a place to grab food before our show at the Pantages Theater and this place popped up in my search. Plus, it was really close by to the Pantages. It's located along Hollywood Blvd, and the only parking, other than garage parking, is street parking. This is literally just a takeout counter and unassuming, but don't let that fool you. The menu is pretty simple, either beef & lamb mix, or chicken options for a 6" or 12" wraps by themselves, or you can do a 12" or 24" plate option in which the wrap is sliced into sections for easier sharing/eating. My bf and I opted for the 24" beef & lamb mix plate. The plates also came with pickles and fries along with a tahini dipping sauce. It was so good! The meat was juicy seasoned well and it mixed with the onion and tomatoes well. The fries were crispy too. Seating wise there are about 3 tables with black chairs. The drink prices aren't listed but there's a fridge you can see. Cans were $2 and he gave the water on the house which we weren't expecting. This was a great find nearby and definitely could feed up to 3 people. Nice easy casual bite especially if you don't want a sit down restaurant.

    The food really tasted very authentic. The employee was so helpful and explaining everything. The service provided was amazing and the cost was very reasonable for the size of the sandwich. The taste of the sandwich was very very authentic and it tasted like the same thing I had in the middle east. The atmosphere is very nice and they have nice tables to sit at outside especially at night when there's a nice brief. Thank you to the employee who made our experience amazing

    If you blink, you might miss this place. There are some tables and chairs outside for seating. When this place claims to have the best shawarma in town, they are not joking, they absolutely do! I thoroughly enjoyed the food and the prices were very reasonable compared to the portion sizes. Got the chicken shawarma and hands down, one of the best that I've had in recent memory. If you are ever in the LA area, you have to stop here. This was my 3rd time in LA and 3rd time hitting this spot.

    If you blink, you might miss this place it's a small hidden gem with no indoor seating, just a few fold-up tables on the sidewalk. We were on our way to Pantages Theatre and getting hungry when we almost passed it by, but decided to give it a try and we're so glad we did! To our amazement, this little spot was incredible. The flavors were amazing, and every bite was so good. The gentleman working there was super kind and accommodating, which made the experience even better. It's right on Hollywood Boulevard, so if you're in the area, definitely give it a try!

    We got into LA after dinner time and we're staying in the Hollywood area. I was a little snacky and just wanted a quick bite to eat while checking out the stars. Enter sincerely Syria. It's a little unassuming storefront with a few outside seating tables. Mainly for to go purposes. The chicken shawarma was delicious, not dry like at some other places. Food was a little oily and dripped out the bottom of the foil as we were walking so bring extra napkins, but it totally hit the spot!

    When looking online, this place had a lot of great reviews, but it was empty when we got there. A little skeptical, we ordered the beef wrap to try it out. It was one of the best beef wraps we had! It was so full of flavor and had a sauce that paired extremely well with it, so we had to try the chicken too. While I've had chicken wraps that were better, this one was still full of flavor as well. What is nice about this particular wrap is it isn't loaded with salt, like other places, which makes it a lot healthier to eat. Even though my expectations were low, this place completely went above and beyond for flavor and quality. This is definitely a place I recommend! The owner seems to work here by himself. He works late hours, takes the order and cooks the meal himself. His business is a great place to support if you're in the area, and you won't be disappointed. The ambiance is chill too. So make sure to give it a try!

    So much good food in unsuspecting shops on Hollywood near Vine. This shop offers shawarma wraps that are amazing. We had a 6" chicken shawarma wrap with pickles and garlic sauce. Grilled to a. Crunchy texture and warm and delicious. Meat is seasoned well and the garlic sauce is not too strong. Just right actually. Also, they serve it up fast. They have the formula down and can keep the flow going. Whenever we have walked by there is always a short line of customers and now I know why. Definitely a must!

    THIS PLACE IS BOMB. If you love shwarma, don't look any further, this is the spot in Hollywood. They are open late night too which is a major plus for me. Stopped by and picked up a small chicken wrap for lunch. Paid about $9 bucks for it and within 5 minutes my wrap was out. THAT THING WAS PACKED WITH FLAVOR. The garlic sauce on it was amazing and I also added some chili to the wrap that it made it even better. Truly a 10/10! Don't sleep on this place if your in the area. For the quality and how cheap the food is, I was impressed. I will defenitly be back again. Thanks Sincerly Syria for the great lunch, till next time!

    Tell me how I've driven past Sincerely Syria a thousand times and just finally stopped in this weekend. My friend and I loved it so much, we went multiple times this weekend. Like...we fell in love. The location is shady, at best. The staff is polite, at best. The seating is thinly coated with dirt, at best. The parking is sparse, at best. But the freaking shawarma, y'all...it is THE best. This is Syrian style shawarma and you can either get 6" or 12" with chicken or lamb & beef. They also have plates but those are the same wraps, chopped into pieces and served with the trimmings. Los Angeles has a huge number of delicious revolving meat spots being sliced into their own signature pitas. They opened in 2021, taking over what was Hollywood Shawarma at this location on Hollywood & Vine. The flavors are wild, their signatures spices are splendid, that cinnamon tip delights - just so freaking tasty. With only two options, I can promise you'll eat good since I tried both the lamb & beef mixture which also came with onion, tomato & parsley trimmings and a tahini-based tarator sauce. While my preferred protein option, the chicken, it came doused in toum (whipped garlic sauce) and special Syrian pickles. Officially obsessed with that garlic sauce, swoon. They had no issue removing pickles for me the second time I popped in, btw. Ready for me to blow your mind? Most nights they close at Midnight, but Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays? They cater to the crowds until 4am! Word on my street is of their locations, this is the best one.

    Rating: 8.0 An alright shawarma wrap. The size is really good and the chicken is good. I do think the chicken seasoning isn't as a local Syrian flavor, but it is okay. The bread is good but not an authentic shawarma wrap type of bread. A solid one however.

    This is most delicious Shawarma place in Los Angeles.

    The service is always friendly and the food is delicious!! I recommend both the Chicken and the beef & Lamb . It's sooooo good!!!

This does not come with any sauce, I ordered a side of garlic sauce. My plate was very good! I found the garlic sauce to be really mild, I am used to a very pungent garlic sauce. The filet was hands down my favorite, soooo tender! Chicken was really good, kefta was ok. I also ordered us pita bread and the kibbeh appetizer. Their pita is really good! So fluffy and had a great taste. Kibbeh was not my favorite, it was very crunchy, which I am not accustomed to, and the flavor just didn't work for me. We are definitely fans and will be ordering from Aleppo's again.

The meat was dry and lacked seasoning, the rice was bland, and several dishes arrived barely warm. Nothing felt freshly prepared. The ingredients seemed low quality, and the presentation could not hide the fact that the food simply lacked flavor. Even basic items that are difficult to get wrong were forgettable. The menu looks impressive, but the actual food does not live up to the description. It feels like you're paying for the location and atmosphere rather than for quality cuisine. There are many Persian and Mediterranean restaurants in Los Angeles that serve far better food for the same price or less. Unfortunately, this was one of the most underwhelming meals I've had in a long time, and I would not return.
