“ Quick service, fresh food I got the chicken shawarma wrap and it was great! Will be returning ”
“ Amazing taste, friendly staff, and affordable prices. The only problem is the parking situation in that area. ”
“ I've been coming here for years and they have not lost their touch on their delicious meat. They were very friendly and gave me a free falafel after i ordered. And we're quick with service. I choose to get the Lamb shawarma it's the one thing that keeps me coming back to this wonderful hole in the wall. If you enjoy spice then get it spicy. If you've never had a shawarma before this one consist of tomato's, onions, sauce and lamb shaved pieces. I got the regular but they offer a deluxe version. ”
“ I have been going to Truly Mediterranean for many years to be exact 15 years. . I go to Truly Mediterranean for the lamp shawarma. It is the best I have tried. I always try shawarma's from different Mediterranean spots and they never taste great. If you a shawarma lover this spotbis the place for the best shawarma. ”
“ Great spot for a quick meal. I like the portion sizes and they don't charge extra for some sauce. An order of falafel comes with 6 and I think that's a fair order. The service I experienced was kind and fast. It's a smaller spot with limited seating. I think this spot is great for large to go orders. My girls and I ordered it for girls night and we loved everything. ”
“ Food 4/5 Was expecting a softer kind of pita bread wrap but it was on the harder/crunchier side. Got there around 3:30pm on a Sunday and they were out of the lamb already :( chicken was average and they put a lot of sauce in the wrap. Wrap has chicken, tomato, onions, and sauce. Definitely a place to stop by for a quick meal and will satisfy your cravings for Mediterranean food! Service 5/5 Service is great here! Everyone is helpful and they even gave us a falafel to try! Ambiance 4/5 A very small shop with ~6 counter seats. There are a couple tables outside but the street is very busy and a little smelly (mission area). ”
“ Solid late night spot, that's reasonably priced. Parking nearby can be hard to find, and the limited seating makes it more of a Togo spot. That being said the falafels are quite good and they generally come out piping hot. I always get the plate either chicken or beef, tried the shawarma but liked it less. Pro tip: when ordering a combo plate ask for half baba ganoush and half hummus, the variety is nice. Service is always friendly, they typically give you a free falafel while you wait, and normally this place is pretty quick which I can appreciate. Probably not your date spot, but a good late night drunchies spot. Recommend. ”
