Shawarma's Diana — Restaurant in Florida

!BEWARE NUT ALLERGY! NOT DISCLOSED ON MENU!

I am very dissapointed with the response I received from the owner when I called and asked of potential nutmeg in the food, which I have an allergy to.

The nutmeg is not disclosed anywhere on the menu. I picked up my order to go and once I got home I saw the chicken had little flecks like nutmeg seasoning. I called and explained that I ordered the chicken and if they can please let me know if there was any nutmeg. Firstly, Diana was unaware of the nutmeg. Upon checking with the kitchen there was in fact nutmeg in the seasoning.

I tried to explain I had an allergy and that it was not disclosed on the menu. I was told that "because I did not call ahead and ask" nothing could be done. Essentially I was being told it was my fault when in reality the owner needs to disclose nut products.

I asked if something could be done because I am a client and this is very unfortunate. No budge for care from her to help. I was stuck with $40 worth of food I could not eat. I have gone to eat in person but typically get the steak where I could not see the brown seasoning. I started to feel funny which is why I decided to order the chicken this time where I then saw the nutmeg.

I am so ashamed of this mom & pop not accomodating to their loyal and new customers with food allergies. I have contributed well over $200 to this establishment and was going to contribute more through ought the years. No more; after seeing the true colors. It is ashamed especially that my fiances' previous 5 star review gets used in their advertisements on instagram. What a shame... I will be taking my...

Honestly, for being a Venezuelan Shawarma place, it is much better than a lot of “authentic” Shawarma places I’ve eaten at. I ordered the Combo #1 for Chicken, Steak and Lamb Shawarma Wraps. I got the fries and salad and a side of Falafel.

Chicken Shawarma

This was definitely the highlight. They give a lot of chicken, and the chicken is actually nice quality chicken, the wrap is nice, the lettuce and tomatoes and sauce go really well together, the one weird thing is that instead of cucumbers they use pickles, so I definitely ordered everything with no pickles.

Beef Shawarma

This one was okay, again a lot of meat given, so that’s always great, but the beef was a bit dry.

Lamb Shawarma

The lamb was actually pretty good, but this was the wrap they gave the least amount of meat.

Fries

The fries were pretty average, but still good.

Salad

Was way too acidic, hard to eat, didn’t come close to finishing.

Falafel

The Falafel is actually really good, nice and crispy on the outside, good flavor, and dipping in their green sauce (their best sauce) it’s very tasty and a decent-ish price at $5.99.

All in all, pretty good solid place, again beats out a lot of “authentic” shawarma and Mediterranean places that...

We came here to try for our first time because our first choice Mediterranean restaurant closes early on a Sundays.

This is a small restaurant, very clean inside and with a comfortable atmosphere. We were greeted as we walked in and we were seated right away with menus.

There was only one person working who was very friendly and helpful with the menu and he did everything, but he was able to keep up with what many to go orders and those of us that were dining in.

We ordered the chicken shawarma, tabbouleh, muhammara, and the combo #2. The presentation was nice, and everything tasted very fresh and the sauces that they provided were very good and helpful for flavor. Our biggest disappointment was that the muhammara tasted very sweet.

The prices are expensive and the food is good, but for us it was not as we had hoped for. And be aware that they will charge you 10% for table service and a 2.6% cash adjustment, and when you go to pay the bill it will ask you if you would like to include a tip; unfortunately I did not see all theses extra charges until the next day when I took a better look at my receipt. I didn’t appreciate not being told of these...
