How It Is Made

Four steps. Made fresh to order.

Every plate of shawarma starts the same way it has since opening day in 2003. Marinated overnight, char-grilled in small batches, sliced fresh to order. Nothing pre-cut and held.

01

Marinated overnight

Whole-muscle chicken thigh and seasoned beef marinated for 12+ hours in our seven-spice blend with garlic, lemon, and olive oil.

02

Char-grilled in small batches

Cooked in small batches on the char-grill so the edges caramelize against the open flame.

03

Sliced to order

Carved off in thin strips when you order, never pre-sliced and held. The outer crust goes straight onto your plate.

04

Plated with garlic sauce

Served with rice pilaf or in a wrap, finished with house-made garlic sauce and warm pita.

Served Three Ways

Plate, half & half, or wrap.

The same shawarma, three formats. Order whichever fits the moment.
