Located on Merced street right in Bellas Artes neighborhood Bombon Oriental is a small Arabic restaurant. It is very small, in fact you can basically only sit outside. The inside is a display of lots of traditional Arabic sweets and things to take home to your own kitchen.
They offer a variety of shawarma sandwiches and plates, as well as pita sandwiches. The food is average and decent for a quick bite and cute ambiance. I would say their shawarma's are really overpriced for what they are and I wouldn't recommend the arabic style coffee (very watered down). However, this place is great on a warm day if you want to sit outside and grab something quick and decent.
The service was also average, nothing over the top, but nothing really to complain about either. They have lunch specials that include one of their shawarmas with a small salad and drink, again I would say very overpriced for the quality and quantity. read more
