This was the best shawarma Ive ever had. Me and my family have eaten at many restaurants but my father had never loved the food this much before. It was a little expensive but I really enjoyed the chicken wings and my father really liked the rice and chicken shawarma.

As you peruse the tantalizing menu, each item tells a story. The highlight? The Alsham Mix Grill—a masterful combination of skewered meats including kufta kabab, chicken kabab, and lamb chop, perfectly grilled and served with warm wrap bread and enticing garlic and tahini sauces. This dish alone showcases the culinary expertise at Alsham, delivering a fusion of textures and flavors that keep you coming back for more.

Don't overlook the appetizers, which are a celebratory start to any meal. The classic Hummus, rich with sesame sauce, olive oil, and fresh lemon, pairs beautifully with the elegant aroma of spiced beef when you opt for the Hummus with Shawarma. Another must-try is the Baba Ganoush, a creamy and smoky blend of eggplant that beckons for an encore.

The atmosphere is equally inviting, with options for outdoor seating that allow you to enjoy your meal al fresco, perhaps while watching the world go by. With TVs for entertainment and a focus on sustainability through compostable containers and plastic-free packaging, Alsham Restaurant is more than just a place to eat; it’s a community-driven experience.
