I wonder where they get their recipes from. This may be the best option in the food court of this small mall, but I won't be eating here again. If you want to taste real shawarma, visit Brooklyn, NY.

Excellent food every time! Don’t skip the appetizers! The hummus, baba gannoush, dolmas and falafel are all delicious.
