The taste of shawarma is outstanding and better than many shawarma resturants in the area, i recommend this place. Inside dining is also available but busy. You need sometime to wait for your turn. Service may take time but believe me tbe food you get deserve that time.

After more than a decade out of Syria visiting 10s of Shawrma places, I have never tasted the original taste untill I came to Abo Al Abed! Thank you for doing it right, guys! Proud that you are also protecting the name of Abo Al Abd!!

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing an exceptional Arabic shawarma that left an indelible mark on my culinary memory. Nestled in a cozy corner of the city, this gem of a shawarma joint stands out not just for its food but for the entire dining experience.

From the moment I walked in, the aroma of perfectly spiced meat sizzling on the rotisserie captivated my senses. The ambiance, with its warm lighting and inviting décor, created a welcoming atmosphere that set the stage for a memorable meal.

The star of the show, of course, was the shawarma itself. Wrapped in a freshly baked, soft yet slightly crispy flatbread, the meat was incredibly tender and flavorful. Marinated in a blend of traditional Arabic spices, it offered a perfect balance of savory and tangy notes. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, with the garlic sauce adding a creamy richness, and the pickles providing a delightful crunch and acidity that cut through the richness of the meat.

What truly set this shawarma apart was the attention to detail. The vegetables were fresh and crisp, adding a refreshing contrast to the succulent meat. The addition of tahini and a sprinkle of sumac elevated the flavor profile, making each bite a complex yet harmonious experience.

The service was impeccable, with staff members who were both knowledgeable and passionate about their craft. They took the time to explain the ingredients and preparation methods, which only deepened my appreciation for the meal.

In conclusion, this Arabic shawarma was a culinary masterpiece, a testament to the artistry and tradition behind one of the Middle East's most beloved street foods. Whether you're a shawarma aficionado or a first-timer, this place is a must-visit for an authentic and unforgettable dining experience.

Absolutely delighted with my visit! From the moment I walked in, the owners greeted me with such warmth and friendliness, making me feel right at home. I decided to order the Arabic chicken shawarma with garlic yogurt sauce, and I couldn't resist trying the fresh peri salted chips on the side.

The shawarma was nothing short of fantastic. The chicken was tender and perfectly seasoned, wrapped in a fresh crispy, wrap. The garlic yogurt sauce was a perfect complement, adding a creamy and tangy kick that elevated every bite. As for the peri salted chips, they were crispy, flavorful, and just the right amount of spicy, making them an irresistible side.

Overall, the combination of delicious food and exceptional service made for a truly memorable experience. I can't wait to come back and try more from their menu!

After witnessing a lot of hype on social media, I decided to try it. We were two people and ordered the Arabian Mix Shawarma and Half Roast Chicken. The presentation of the food is top notch. The meat in the Shawarma was tender and scrumptious and when eaten with the sauce and pickles was a heavenly experience. The only problem was that the Shawarma bread was very flaky so it could not hold the contents inside tightly and the chicken spilled out. The skin on the roast chicken was delicious but the inside, although very delicate, didn’t seem to carry the taste. The texture inside the chicken seemed a bit off. May that’s how it is traditionally but it was my first time tasting it this way. Definitely worth a visit.
