Great place to eat. Try the soup w a twist which is lentil soup with rice and chicken schwarma. Add the hot sauce to it to get some kick. I even tried with garlic sauce and it tasted yummy.Upvote2Downvote
Patrick CutticaDecember 30, 2013Chicken Shawarma plate with Tabouli Salad is the way to go; the Persian Yogurt is a nice side to balance the hot sauce which has tons of flavor & a decent kick to it.Upvote2Downvote

Get the Chicken Kebab or Mediterranean Chicken. They are ah-mazing. Skip the sandwich and get a rice bowl for a more-filling lunch.Upvote3Downvote- Ask which protein came out most recently to get the freshest, best-tasting chicken or beef possible.UpvoteDownvote
