    *** Pay with cash and receive a 5% discount *** The Shawarma Factory is a small hole-in-a-wall restaurant that was ranked #14 on the Yelp's Top 100 Places to Eat for 2017. [Parking]: Street parking only, but shouldn't be too difficult finding an available spot to park in this part of the neighborhood. [Atmosphere]: This is not the most glamorous restaurant as the restaurant only has 5 indoor tables. I came here 15 minutes before the closing time to place a takeout order. [Menu]: A very simple one-page menu with plates, bowls & salads, and wraps. Chicken shawarma is the most popular protein option and chicken kabob is the next most popular option. *** Chicken Shawarma Plate ($15.99): Flavorful chicken shawarma and rice (s-tier), lovely warm pita (a-tier), and garlic sauce + spicy sauce + salad were a-okay (b-tier). Very generous portion with enough for two separate meals. *** Overall a solid local Mediterranean spot with friendly service. If I do come back here again, then I probably would order a bowl / wrap instead a plate.

    The food is amazing, the restaurant is so clean and nice. The staff are very kind and welcoming.

    Combo Shawarma plate chicken kabob plate with Moroccan mint tea!

    First of let me start off with the service phenomenal. Very attentive and understanding. The food by far the best I've had. From the main course to the Moroccan mint tea. Amazing highly recommend it. Family owned place makes you feel comfortable and relaxed while you enjoy your meal. Definitely recommend already told a few of my family and friends.

    Great shawarma! The meat was flavorful, the veggies were fresh, and the sauces were perfect. Portions are generous and the service is fast and friendly. Definitely a spot worth trying!

    First time here... food was delicious I got the chicken kabobs with the rice ,salad,hummus so bomb..the service was good nice and friendly very attentive.. now just one thing you need to use the restroom before you get here because they don't have one but other than that everything was great.

    While driving through due to work, I decided to stop by as I was searching for Mediterranean food. The chicken shawarma bowl was so good I went back and bought my wife one for later just so she can try it.

The staff was incredibly friendly and walked me through how to build my sandwich, which I appreciated as a first-time customer. I ordered the Blazin' Cajun sandwich and substituted the protein with the golden turkey. Great choice--the sandwich was packed with meat and toppings. The portions are generous. I only ate half for lunch and saved the other half for later, and it was just as good. If you're looking for a solid, satisfying sandwich without all the fuss, this place is definitely worth checking out. I'll be back to try another combination.

The food & veggies were fresh BUT they failed on the TOASTED part .... when I stated it wasnt toasted the owner made me aware he could see the marks on the bread, unfortunately the cheese was still solid & the meat was cold. I drove from Gardena to LA and the cheese was still WHOLE not a bit melted. I dont see why it couldnt be toasted again but The food quality if you are in the southbay is definitely up to par & they serve non dairy smoothies which earned them the three stars

I told her that they didn't put any hash browns in the omelette and I wanted a $3 refund, which was how much extra $ was charged for the hash browns that I never got. She argued with me and yelled at me, and got the chef to argue and yell at me, insisting the hash browns were indeed in the omelette. I continued to yell back at them, explaining that there were absolutely no hash browns in my omelette and I want a refund for the hash browns immediately. Finally, after making me yell and argue with them for probably 3 minutes in front of the whole restaurant, she finally agreed to refund the $3. Horrible service, and dishonest. They tried everything they could to not give me a refund when there was no hash browns and I paid for them. Worst service ever.

This was also my husband's first time trying this place out and he got the Western sandwich. He also enjoyed it. It is a bit on the pricey side with a sandwich costing $13-$15, not including sides or a drink. There was only one person working at the time we went. She was very nice. We waited a little bit for our food; about 10-15 minutes. The restaurant was empty and very clean. They also were selling shirts at a cheap price. I think this is an underrated sandwich spot that I would stop at if I am in the area. It was pretty good in terms of taste and quality, and it is a good little spot to visit.
