Falafel is super light and crispy, delicious, made fresh to order. Steak shawarma on the traditional saj wrap was also very good. Steak tasted a bit under-seasoned but overall it was good and you can taste the quality of the ingredients.

My boyfriend and I went in today for the first time and it was soooo good , i didnt like the fries personally but thats okay because what i wanted most was perfect 🥴🥴
I didnt get a picture because we devoured it. We ordered 2 chicken shawarma with garlic sauce, tomatoes, cucumbers with chicken in a saj wrap. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
We were in Tampa for early Thanksgiving vacation and I love shawarma so we always try to dine at local places that offer them and this was a winner♡
Its a cute spot and great staff. They were very kind. Thank you guys!

Thank you, Talia! 🌟 We’re super thrilled you loved the chicken shawarma – it warms our hearts to hear! Enjoy your Thanksgiving vacation! 🦃❤️
Food was delicious. We had not been there before and the menu was explained to us. We both tried different dishes and everything was delicious! The owner was friendly and we had a great meal. Highly recommend for something a little different.

Thanks so much, Seina! 🌟 We're over the moon that you loved the falafel and saj – can’t wait to see you again for round two! 🥙💚
I ordered a chicken rice bowl and the rice was not properly cooked. And i had to pay $19.50 for I bowl and 1 cold drink, I will say it’s pricey and not justified for the food experience here as compared to similar kind of foods out there.

Hey Hamza, thank you for your feedback. We would like to first express that our bowl is very fairly priced since it’s Halal and top quality chicken which is fresh and never frozen. And we use a great quality royal Basmati rice which is made fresh daily. We hope that you would try us out again. And reconsider your rating. 🙂
EASILY the best shawarma in Tampa, possibly in Florida. I bring my friends from out of town here, I bring my new clients for meetings here.
If you're a "purist", get the chicken, steak, or mixed "saj" shawarma (that's the bread you're "supposed" to have it in and the only option at a lot of places overseas!). If you prefer a pita, or are watching carbs and would prefer a bowl, they've got those too. If you want my order: mixed saj - skip the hummus spread, get a bit of the s'khug and hot peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, purple cabbage, onions, pickled turnips, extra pickles, and tahini to top it off. Perfect.
Yes, it's slightly on the pricier side for shawarma, but you get what you pay for. The steak and chicken are both so juicy, I can never decide, but luckily you can get both in one sandwich. 11/10.

Thank you, Holland! 🙌 We're so happy you love our steak saj and falafel - you’re definitely part of the fan club now! 🥳🌟
It was after 9:00 PM. I had skipped dinner to catch a concert, and I was hungry. I found this place by accident. I love middle-eastern cuisine. This was quick, tasty, filling and overall excellent. I ordered the bowl. Next time I'm going to try the larger shwarma.
