I have eaten here a total of four times. The third time i ate there i ordered the Lamb Shawarma Entre. Unfortunately i found a staple in my food! The manager refunded me without problem. Luckily i was not injured and mistakes do indeed happen! However, the food was SOO incredibly good, i didnt care and decided to give it another shot so i went there a forth time. Instead i ordered Mixed Kofta Kabab! This time i inspected the food very carefully and I found Wax Paper in my food! Im starting to feel some sort of way about Al-Sham 2. Is it me or is this just a freak coincidence? Please be careful Al-Sham bros! Your food is totally amazing! So much in fact i ordered there a fourth time even after finding a foreign object in my food. I would be giving this place the strongest 5/5 stars i have ever given a place in my life if these events did not happen. The food is AMAZING, and so...

On the hunt for shawarma as always, stumbled upon this place in an area I don’t usually frequent. Service was really nice and he helped me decide what to get, which was the lamb wrap. The meat was nice, I haven’t had cheese with shawarma meat before so that was interesting and I didn’t mind it as much as I thought I may. The wrap itself was pretty substantial, which made me feel better about the price that was a little higher than I would have wanted. I do with they offered other sides than fries and onion rings if it’s going to be included, like a salad. And it took probably double the amount of time I was told, which I don’t fully understand as when I was there I was one of like two customers.

If you’re in the area it’s a good option....

1st time I ate here, the woman forgot I was eating in, and then noticed I was sitting there without my food. She was apologetic and friendly. Don't let the niqab fool you, shes very nice and helpful! Portions here are pretty big and food is cooked to order. Place stays busy. Downside could be parking but use the lot on the far left. The biggest downside for me is, the chicken over rice is done in a very different way. It says NY Style, but I've never gotten it this way in NYC. Its a reddish colored chicken. Its not spicy though. Its hard to explain. Its not Indian so perhaps whatever nationality they are, thats...

I love the food here, but please package it better! I ordered a family meal to eat for lunches at work this week. All of the oil off the hummus and maybe the liquid off the salad leaked into the bag they were in. Those foil containers always leak, but they were tipped over in the bag this time and it leaked BAD. The spinach pie container got crushed too. I'd pay a little more to not have a huge mess. Update: It happened again! This time, the paper bag ripped open and now my car is soaked. PLEASE get better packaging!

Called in to order 4 orders of al shams quesadillas for pick up. I was asked if i wanted salmon, i said no i want the al shams. He said “ok al shams”. After picking up my order and getting home, sitting down all comfortable i opened my food to find i had shrimp instead. Glad i started eating before my brother because he’s allergic to shellfish. The quesadillas are cut into four pieces of which two of them only had one shrimp inside (see pic). I will not be going back to this location as they seem to have fallen off.

I like the lamb at this spot but they dont give enough meat they are cheap with the meat and quick to take your money.. the service is neutral.. the spot is clean although i see dust in certain Areas where they shouldn’t be but I’m not giving them a letter grade so that’s not relevant; However I think they should do a better job in cooking the chicken moreover they should respect what the customer is requesting. finally I don’t think I will dine there often
