I’ve had my fair share of chicken shawarma sandwiches. I can say this spot did not win me over. Perhaps sandwiches taste differently region to region, but this was just ok. The garlic sauce tasted like it was made with mayonnaise. Not the pickles I’m used to getting in the sandwich. And I’ve never had iceberg lettuce on any of my sandwiches.

Response to owner: I was there on a Tuesday and your truck was outside a liquor store. You should consider all reviews as a way of improvement. Do not be so sensitive to feedback that is less than what you'd expect. The food could have...
Read moreSo good! My husband and I stopped for the first time tonight and both enjoyed beef shawarma, along with the fried potato kibbeh. Both were outstanding. Super fresh tasting and well seasoned. We’d never had the opportunity to try either before and really enjoyed tasting new flavors. The man working also brought us slices of baklava and it was so delicious that we’d come back for that alone! Truly a can’t miss spot and somewhere we’ll be...
