Serious EatsNovember 14, 2014Duzan's shawarma is the best bite on Steinway Street. It's juicy dark meat spiced with cumin & coriander stuffed into the poofiest homemade pita, topped with vegetables and pickles with tahini sauce. Read more
Paul CarecciaNovember 13, 2012This place is legit, the Sharma sandwich was extremely good, I also ordered the hummus with hot chickpeas on it, also very good and the hot pita they bring with it really made it great.Upvoted Nov 25, 2024
Brittany AAugust 31, 2016If it's your first visit and you aren't sure which veggies you want added to your pita, just say so! They will call your name when your food is almost ready and let you say yes or no to each option.
Kimmie OhhAugust 9, 2020The food portions are ginormous! They hook you up with so much meat! Get the chicken shawarma bowl with rice & salad. Bowls come with fresh pita on the side (you can taste that it’s fresh!)- Lin daSeptember 25, 2021Chicken shawarma with lemon tahini or pickled ginger curry. Hummus Jerusalem topped with fava beans and spicy pepper sauce or Hummus Abu Gosh topped with roasted garlic and pine nuts!
Great falafel. Busy and usually in some state of disaster but the food is legit. Falafel in a pita with everything is a good start. Ask for some hot sauce.- Polina WeitzFebruary 22, 2021Awesome spot! The chicken shawarma was delicious and the pita nice and fluffy. The schnitzel was great as well. They even have tahini, amba, arisa, sumac...
- Kimmie OhhMarch 10, 2024For hot sauce lovers, get their harissa! It def has a kick to it. If you get their garlic sauce, you def won’t miss the garlic!
Natalie PachecoJuly 23, 2023The hummus bowls are huge and yummy, the hummus Duzon is my favorite with flavorful meat and soft pita- Serious EatsJanuary 30, 2014Excellent shawarma, foul, and other Middle Eastern dips and salads. Load up on the puffy pita baked in-house.
Lior SolomonNovember 27, 2022Omg! The shawarma chicken sandwich will compete with any authentic middle eastern shawarma stand!
Dan PyatetskyDecember 28, 2019Beef/lamb shawarma, chicken shawarma, Kafta. Babaganoush is the best I’ve had in NY.
Gabriel ChungApril 15, 2016Good shawarma platters on Steinway and if you are in the area - a solid delivery option from seamless. They've been pretty reliable and quick.
Dani NedalDecember 30, 2015Chicken shawarma and lamb+beef shawarma are fantastic. Fries are great. Harissa hits the spot. Great value.
Bentley FerrainaDecember 1, 2015Falafel and shwarma sandwiches are the best I've ever had. The fresh pita is excellent
I'm obsessed with the falafel, but you really can't go wrong here. And the staff is the friendliest in NYC!
Brian ParkJune 19, 2016Solid Baba Ganoush, and for the price of their pitas/sandwiches, you can't go wrong in terms of quality.
Dan MillerFebruary 7, 2016Chicken shawarma in a pita or wrap is amazing. Be sure to order them with white sauce.
- Falafel pita is outstanding. Ask for some hot sauce it is fire.
Christina GomezApril 28, 2013The best falafel I ever had, and I've tried many places. It's always fresh and perfect.
Shwarma platter is my favorite, try their special sauce and the garlic dip
I agree with the other poster: always fresh, always amazing falafel. I cant eat falafel from anywhere else anymore.
