Their chicken shawarma has the most authentic taste. I tried the other dishes but thats the best one to have.

The gyros here are pretty good, I wouldn't say they stand out from the dozen or so other halal gyros places in Seattle. However the service is great and it is a nice option if you want halal food at 1:00am on a weekend.

Excellent customer service and equally good food. The place is run by 2 very friendly Egyptian brothers who make you feel welcomed as you walk in. Though their seating arrangement inside is fairly decent, if I am with the family we will more often eat in our car outside - the kids enjoy the 'picnic' in the car. You will see a diverse mix of people with a largely younger student crowd in the area. Their chicken shawarma and chicken kebab sandwiches are very nice in addition to lamb meat over a plate of hummus. Not to forget their fries and dessert. They are open till late, I believe 11pm on weekdays and 2am on Fridays and Saturdays, which is a plus.
