Customer Review Summary
Shawarma is the main draw, with several reviewers describing fresh, juicy meat and freshly baked bread, and one suggesting mango sauce in it. Close behind, the falafel is praised as made from scratch and not dry, and one diner calls the shawarma pizza outstanding enough to prompt a second visit. Reviewers also mention a large wrap with fresh cut filling, a good variety of salad, and homemade sauces. Opinion splits on the mixed shawarma. One reviewer found the meat tasteless and needed to add salt, and another found the lamb too chewy and the chicken bland. Both criticized the bread, calling it not fresh or not cooked properly, and both felt overcharged. One delivery order arrived cold, with soggy chips and a burnt fatyr. Another reviewer describes a counter worker who asked three times for the order. Others find the staff kind and welcoming, and one says they were given free things to try.

“Mixed shawarma not great. Lamb too chewy and chicken bland. Girl.servimg was very polite but I was overcharged. £15 for mixed shawarma, chips and naan. Did not even include a drink lol. Bread was not cooked properly. Guys cooking food looked absolutely miserable. would not return sadly as there are better places in the area.”

“Best shawarma in Glasgow, Tasty food and fresh. Friendly staff, Kurdish Street Food is the bomb! Their shawarma is seriously good, super fresh, juicy meat packed with flavour’s. Freshly baked bread is a game changer. Menu is banging, so there is so much choice. Definitely check it out! Don’t forget to add mango sauce in your shawarma highly recommend.”
