Mohamed the owner is very welcoming and offered me delicious hot tea while I was waiting for my pick up order. Chicken Shawarma Sandwich, Falafel Sandwich and Fries with Zatter seasoning.. Everything was delicious! They even have a little market with lots of Dubai chocolates! I loved everything! My new favorite place to eat and its not far from home.
This place is amazing. Genuinely was blown away by the amazing shawarma. Everyone here is so kind and welcoming. I will definitely be coming back!!
What a wonderful lunch find! Perfect stop off the highway for a road trip. Pleasant atmosphere. Good location. Great food. Very fresh and tasty! We were even offered tea while waiting - which was really pleasant and so lovey. We got beef and chicken shawarma for lunch and the baklava. They also a lot of beverages, chips, chocolates and snacks for takeaway! Even Dubai chocolate, of course! Please note that they are under a sign for a Mexican restaurant so be confused!
