We ordered two portions of baba ganoush and some other meals. one of the two baba ganoush tasted off - sour, as if it had been fermenting, and with a different colour. We phoned the Shawarma House to ask about this, but the guy told us that it wasn't so. He explained it was because of the pomegranate sauce on it. When we asked why the different colour and how come it tastes so bad, he hung up.

I don’t like leaving bad reviews but I ordered a shawarma wrap from them and it was the most unauthentic wrap I’ve ever tried. It only had chicken and lettuce inside and it was so tasteless. I would not be ordering from here again, so disappointed. Also it asks you to pick between cheese, cream cheese and butter to add into the wrap, it didn’t even give me an option to pick none.

Generous portions, prices are reasonable & their menu is varied. Most of the staff are 🇵🇰 rather than Middle Eastern, so you can get some banter going with them in Urdu/Punjabi. General cleanliness could be improved a wee bit especially in the WC.

I’m very disappointed to say that when attempting to order from this shawarma house via JustEat, there was no response whatsoever. I tried calling the shop directly, but no one answered. This is unacceptable for a business; they should prioritise their customers. I placed my order on JustEat at 12:24 pm, and by 2:07 pm, there was still no response, with the delivery time continuing to be delayed. In the end, I had to cancel the order and choose another restaurant. This isn’t the first time on a previous occasion, I had the same experience. It seems as though they are unwilling to serve JustEat customers.

We each had a wrap with bread made freshly infront of us. I really enjoyed my food, chilli sauce wasn't my favorite with almost a plum-like flavor to it. However, It was the only kebab I've ever had where I haven't felt like a greasebag after, which I think it's a great accolade. A credit to that fresh bread I think. I wouldn't personal go in here to sit down and eat, just because of the environment being quite old and tired with a TV playing where you eat, but I would 100% get another takeaway.

The shawarma itself was delicious and juicy. However the nan was too crispy and not suitable to use as a wrap persae and for the price I expected a bit more salad. Sauces were lovely, great packaging but it was pricey. Would order again but wouldn’t usually spend £20 on one meal

Had the lamb shawarma wrap for lunch the doner was all dry literally wasn’t sure cause it was kept in front of the heat the meat was not even chewable. The bread was okay but very chewy. Salad in the doner was nice. For 7.99 you got better place to go on the same street from palmyra to Afro place behind.

Good ambience and service quality was amazing however taste is detoriated. Chicken was not tasty enough and wrap was very tough. Should be bit soft and chicken should have more spices and proper marination, this is the 3rd time I had Shawarma wrap from here but today Shawarma was disappointing. Sorry for the negative review, but I want you to improve and grow.

I dont know about other food here, but there shawarma wrap is 40% wheat, 50% cabbage, 5% cucumber, 5% chicken and tomato. No sauce, no hummus, no jalapeño, no pickle, nothing else. I have given 2 stars, because I tasted only 1 item, so can only comment on 1. Maybe others are very good. But there called shawarma house so that should have been good.

AVOID AND FIND AN ALTERNATIVE I am a doctor and sustained viral food poisoning after attending the premises on 09/12/23 In retrospect, we should have immediately refused dining here as there were some clear red flags… The hygiene of the premises is unacceptable. Tables are not kept clean, bins are left open and in the vicinity of diners. Secondly, the lamb shawarma contained hard, over cooked meat that was gritty. Veg was wilted and had been left exposed for too long. Grills are smattered in old grease and charred debris, and kitchen workers do not follow hand hygiene. AVOID!

After being their honest costumer for over a year, I have been really enjoying such a nice place for piping hot night food~ I personally favor their chicken pakora and mix doner series( kebab and wraps). the wraps are freshly handmade from dough and so do the pizzas. They get a huge portion of doner in every dish. Really friendly staff and they even remember me with warm greetings! The shop has a quite stylish collection of notes from massive countries which is fascinating, as I can find my own country’s stuff up the wall, also with some crazzz stuff like 500 million zimbabwe dollars notes which worth less than a penny(LOL). Overall, 10 out of 10! سلام
