Juicy meat, amazing falafel- and I'm not a falafel person. Falafel is authentically made with green chickpeas and crispy on the outside while flavorful and moist on the inside. (I'm told by my boo that falafels made from Green chickpeas are higher quality and usually only made by Mediterranean places that are really serious about their food). Lamb was great, moist and slightly gamey - only enough to know it's lamb, not so much gamey-ness to turn you off. Chicken was the highlight of the night. Moist, flavorful, and cooked well but not in anyway over cooked. Thoroughly enjoyed it and was surprised when my hubby said it was actually chicken breast. Beef was amazing- cooked well! Enough said, my stomach is rumbling for more. Don't think, just come get good food.

Really enjoyed shawarma house! Got the mixed plate which includes chicken, lamb, and beef. The meat was cooked perfectly and each item packed with so much flavor. The hummus included was amazing, very smooth. They have two additional sauces, a garlicky creamy sauce & a herbaceous oily sauce. Both were so yummy. We also got the loaded fries which were amazing. I wish the actual French fries they used were better, but the topping on top made up for it. I definitely will be coming back!

Whatever you do start with the cheese sambousek. They're eggroll shaped and stuffed with cheese. Truly heaven and worth the trip alone. Wife and I both had the mixed shawarma over salad. Both beef and chicken were delicious and there was plenty of it. Salad though was inconsistent. Wife's salad came with pickles yet mine were missing. All in all though great way to eat delicious shawarma and keep the carbs low. Place was chaos and restaurant was having a hard time getting orders right. Saw several huge party orders going out just for the person to come back angry their order was wrong. This happened several times in the short period I was there. Definitely check everything if you're taking it to go.

First trying this spot. The place was well kept, clean and nice. The person in the front was very nice and polite. We ordered the kouba and mixed shawerma plate. The food was good and fresh. I enjoyed the sauces that came with it really put everything together. The only thing was I was expecting a bit more flavor from the meat, it was kind of bland but still tasty and nice texture.

GINORMOUS portions!!! I got a falafel plate and the portion was huge. I finished half and was able to save the rest for a second meal. The pita is soft and yummy and garlic butter cream sauce they use is delicious!! I wish they gave a little more salad than the amount of rice they gave. The falafel was yummy as well. Service was super fast and efficient (ordered at a kiosk) and they were very nice.

Shawarma House has been on my list and so I'm glad I finally got an opportunity to visit. This is a counter service restaurant. We ordered the beef and chicken shawarmas and a few Barbicans and sat at a corner table. The restaurant was clean and simple - well-maintained. There's parking conveniently in front of the restaurant. There's lots to love about the shawarmas - 1. everything is evenly distributed, so, with every bite, you'll get a little bit of everything 2. there's TONS of flavor, especially in the beef 3. it might be a little silly but I do appreciate that the shawarmas are a good size - it can fit in my hand and mouth and not be overwhelming - which also means it's not messy! I would definitely recommend!

Last review of 2024! Ended it with a great one! Shawarma House is a small little restaurant that serves amazing food. The prices are good, the atmosphere is good, but most importantly, the food was great! We ordered the mix grill combo (the $22 one) and that one came with chicken, steak, and kofte (can't spell lol). It comes with rice, hummus, and small salad. Man... they gave a lot of food and all of it was excellent! Dip it in the garlic sauce and boom. A delicious bite. My wife and I were able to split one and felt full by the end of it. Oh and it also comes with pita of course. You know this place is good when you see them grilling the meats outside on charcoal. I would totally come back to this place. If you get a chance to check it out, go do so! You won't regret it!

My husband and I came here for lunch because we were in the area and came out pretty satisfied! Shawarma house offers a variety of appetizers, salads, wraps, and plates. I ordered the mixed shawarma wrap with mixed meats, which consisted of beef and chicken and a side of fries. The wrap was decently large because it was enough for 2 meals. The meat in it tasted good and it is halal if that is important to you! I highly recommend adding the sauces to the wrap because it really enhanced the flavors in it. The fries were also crispy and well seasoned. The store itself is pretty casual as you order at the counter, get called, and then sit at any open tables. Because of this, there isn't much service here. The store is located in a small plaza with plenty of parking. Overall, I'd say this is a solid, quick spot to satisfy your shawarma craving!
