We were a group of 3. 1 had a shawarma plate According to our bill 2 of us had shishlick plates. This was not what we ordered. However one came with large juicy pieces of beef on a skewer. The other was dried out scrap pieces of beef -no skewer. Looked like they had scraped the bottom of the grill Very disappointing Have been many times before but not sure I will come again read more

Food is great! we had shawarma pita and falafel sandwich - both outstanding. Service is very informal and friendly. They have airconditioned indoor sittings which we used on hot day lunch time. Another time we came for dinner and had outside table. We where not disappointed and will be back for more! read more

I ate the best shawarma of my life at Levi's with a classic melty burger with relaxed atmosphere

We met friends from Minnesota who were visiting Florida here for dinner. He is a vegetarian and she's a pescatarian and they are both kosher. This was their choice of restaurants. The restaurant is kosher. My husband and I shared a felafel platter. First off they bring a dish of pickled veggies to the table and a basket of fluffy pita -- even before you order. I really like the beet marinated turnips. Some of the "pickles" were a bit spicy for me but my husband liked them all. The felafel were wonderful. Perfectly cooked and still moist inside. You got to choose six salads from the "bar". We selected hummus, Israeli salad, babaganoush, beets, and a chunky eggplant. My favorites were the hummus and the eggplant. We were given extra pita as well. In addition, we got a side of beans and rice. The white beans were soft and flavorful as was the rice. My husband brought half home and had with his eggs the next day for breakfast (!). Our friends had a veggie platter and a salmon pita wrap. The veggie platter was their choices from the salad bar. The salmon was hot and freshly cooked and served as a sandwich with condiments added. They didn't have the knafeh (listed on the online menu) that my husband likes, but they did have bobka (cake) that looked great -- although we were too full to try it. Kosher food -- especially the meat dishes -- are exceedingly expensive now. Not being kosher, I had no clue, so some of the menu prices are a bit of a shock. However, if you stick to the appetizers and smaller dishes, and share, (portions are large) you will be okay price wise. I have a friend who lives near by and likes middle eastern food. I told her about this place and we are already planning to come here. read more

TERRIBLE SERVICE. LONG wait . Short staff . I was waiting for 20 min for waitress to come and then give up and went my self to ask someone to get my order . Food is not even good ... bean soup was not a soup was probably beans that that put on rice .. extra small portions for prices they ask .. . Please hire people who can communicate with costumers and definitely need more staff there .. 1 hour wait to be sited and make order and 1 hour for plate of shawarma which one already cooked ? that TERRIBLE. read more

** . So I was really hungry when I went here so I'd take any food. I got here late because I was supposed to meet some relatives and KontyM A but the appetizers were still out (it was pita bread). It went quickly so we asked for some more, they were out of the second kind of bread. Two minutes later we see the owner come out he takes his mask off, what do you think he will do. A-Drive home. B-Go ask the customers if everything is going ok. C-Eat some food himself. D-Take a smoke break. Well if you guessed D you are correct and probably disgusted. We all get our drinks which is in a self serve machine so Covid yay, just to let you all know KontyM A saw a cockroach on a cream soda she was going to get. We all order food I get one of my favorite foods ever that you can't mess up matzah ball soup. My relatives get schwarma with lettuce in it but... the server says "We are out of lettuce." Two things they are out of! ! About ten minutes go bye everyone has their food where is mine? Couple minutes later I see a staff member get out of the restaurant again I'm scared of what he will do well you guessed he smokes. I'm disgusted but as I mentioned I'm hungry and my food be on the way, I also waited a long time so why not go the full 100. It's been about 25 minutes since I ordered everyone is halfway done. I ask "Where is my food?" They say "We are out of Matzah balls." ! I'm mad I stayed for the rest of the dinner then left hungry. As I walk back to the car I see the same staff member smoke. This place is for people who want to suffer, starve and have smoke blow in their face every five minutes. One of the worst restaurants I've ever been to. read more

Levy’s Shawarma - Trump burger - Falafel Near Me - Aventura, Florida

Ordered Shawarma. Was very dry. Got seek afterwards. Not recommended at all !!! Told the owner afterwards, but he didn't seem to care, didn't offer any compensation, was no concerned at all that an eldery women, my mother, who visited from Jerusalem, (82 y/o), was very unhappy with the food. An hour later she got a stomach ache, and wasn't feeling well for several hours. Very disappointing indeed. Owner has the 'Don't care' attitude. read more

I went with my family at 9:22 they close 9:30 they accepted us with opened arms lets us sit and eat and didn't rush us to leave at all. excellent service! and the food was so so fresh and delicious! we were very happy with the service and food. read more

I had a cheeseburger at Levy's was good but afterwards threw up definitely wasnt the best place for me!

Even though the place doesn't look great, you have to trust me this is one of the best options in the area. Not too cheap, and you do sure get a bang for your buck. I ordered a burger and I got (on the side) pita bread, pickles, dips, drinks, salads, plus the burger which was a great deal and great meal. I don't think I will ever come to the area and not come here. I love it every time. I would say that I have been here around 15 times. I got soup once, and it was one of the best soups that I have ever had. Highly Recommended read more

This is the most absurdly terrible place on earth. Telling customers that they should "take a second to process what I just told you" is not ok, by any means. Perhaps you should "process" your business model. A customer for 17 years and I am gone forever, yea, that's exactly how you should treat people. I literally made a point to stop in and actually tell the owner of this establishment- his response was for me to "take it easy and don't let it work me up". That's exactly what you should tell peopl; how little you care if you treat your own customers like crap. The owner could not possibly care less at all. I This is all leaving out the last time that I was here; the food was awful, the service was worse, and somehow you think you have gold in your shawarma. It's fallen off, and isn't worth bothering on ANY level. Every single thing we ordered last time wasn't worth eating whatsoever. There's a reason why at peak rush hour of 12pm there was not a soul in your restaurant.aybe you should care a bit more and make sure your customers are treated with regular common decency. I hope that this restaurant reaps what it sews - I hope that every dinner you go out yo and every dollar you spend on food outside your restaurant you get treated with the same treatment I got - because that is who you are and that is what you deserve. I'm out. read more

Came late night for the babka which I had heard rave reviews of. Did not disappoint. In fact, it was probably THE BEST babka I've ever had. The slices are more like slabs, absolutely gigantic, certainly no complaints from me. Unlikely to eat it all by yourself; I shared with two others. I'd like to go again to try the poppy seed variety. Would also try the food, obviously. read more

Levy’s Shawarma - Old, soggy $13 Israeli salad - Falafel Near Me - Aventura, Florida

The food is okay, the prices are high. I could give 3.5 stars if the prices were lower. The employees are nice and friendly but the restaurant is confusing. You can't really tell if you must sit down and order at the table or order over the counter and wait.. and when do you pay? It kind of looks like fast food restaurant (order over the counter) but the prices are as for the fanciest Mediterranean restaurant. One tiny pitta bread costs $10, laffa sandwich is $15 and a platter $18. We ordered laffa sandwich with falafels and chicken shawarma platter. I assumed you choose what you want to add to your platter but no, they just add selected things that you might not like, are too greasy or spicy. We also ordered fries that were too salty and oily (in my opinion) and their falafels were too mushy and soggy. I can't even describe the texture but it was something really strange (2 stars to those). Chicken shawarma was a bit too bland, missing salt, taste and flavours. Not one of the best for sure. Most things on the platter were not for me - too greasy. Their hummus was good, they had nice selection of salads and I loved their pickle bar. So 3 stars to that! Would I come back? No. read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Levy's Shawarma. In fact, it was my favorite dining experience on my recent trip to South Florida. The prices were reasonable considering that you get to pick as many salads as you want in your shawarma pita. We all ordered pita or laffa sandwiches, and there were fresh warm pitas on the table, along with a few complimentary salads. I like that you don't have to ask for bread or water like at other places, they kept replenishing throughout the meal. The food was tasty and fresh, the service was fast, and eating outside on a warm evening, listening to live music can't be beat! read more

This place is super authentic. Strip mall is run down but don't let that fool you. Found is great. Salad bar options are amazing! The beef shish is super tender, moist. Kefta is well seasoned with all the essential herbs. read more

I used to go there before they moved to Aventura, that is, when their food was EXACTLY as good but their prices were reasonable. Since they moved to Aventura, forget it!!! Food is still as good if you want to spend triple amount. Before, fries were included I think with falafel sandwich, now they cost an extra $10 !!!!!!! Dollars!!!!!! YES FOLKS TEN!!!!! There are a million other delicious places for falafel...don't get ripped off because they are paying high priced rent!!!! For one falafel sandwich and fries it cost me $25 dollars. That is ridiculous! read more

Business that does not care about its area! I was walking on crutches to have their Shawarma and by their side door it was super greasy that I started sliding with crutches and feet barely finding the balance not to fall but unfortunately I stepped onto my bad foot that is after surgery and I'm not supposed to put weight on it. I'm all in pain! I asked for the manager and she said thank you for letting us know. No apologies, nothing! I had to skip to dine at their place and just walked away. After 4 hours I still have terrible pain. If it turns that something happened due to this I will suit your business! read more

This restaurant is located in the Aventura area. Food is fresh and made in front of you. It's not a high end restaurant but more of a comfy, hangout style place to grab food. Their shawarma / falafel / hummus, and baba ghanoush were very fresh. The waitress we had was very attentive and polite. Their sandwiches come with sides and the mixed salad platter is a great way to sample a lot. The prices are on the high end for an Israeli restaurant. read more

Today was my first time trying out this place , I must say the food was absolutely delicious and the big guy behind the counter was super friendly and generous. Hooked me up with 2 plates full of flavorful salads and pickles and amba and schug and pita and a box filled with delicious shawarma ... I couldn't even eat half lol thank you guys so much we will definitely come back !!!! Oh and I got a free babka cake , absolutely delicious Avi , sunny isles read more

I was looking for a kosher restaurant in an area of town that I was not familiar with. The reviews for Levy's was very promising so we tried it. We were not disappointed! We ate outside (which was perfect). Everyone enjoyed their food. It was so good that I decided that next time I have to go kosher food shopping we would eat there and then go to Sara's Tent market. read more

Worst dry shawarma ever over priced on top of it with a surprise service fee of 18% no one tells u about til after you've paid for sitting at the filthy tables outside the front of the place ( note tables available all over the waterways few steps away cleaner better view no charge ) liars cheats and awful food and service. Inside place is filthy. The fries looked like something was cooked with them the frier must have been so dirty no way to tell what else it was cooked with. Stay away if you value your stomach. read more

Incredible. I used to love this spot but today I walk in for lunch and it's empty order ONE PITA SHAWARMA. he says okay, someone walks in After me and orders SIX LAFFAS and they all go attend to them. I'm standing there watching everyone make these peoples LAFFAS as they swarm inside. I asked repeatedly. Hey how long? "I got you" the man with neck mask would say. Okay I wait. Nope. Someone else walks in and orders a pita shawarma and the woman started it in 2 seconds. Where was the guy I asked? He was wrapping the six laffas. Incredible. Right in front of me as I ask him 2 times. And I see him doing everything else but making my pita. Rude. Unorganized. And a hot mess. Save your time if you're one person just buying lunch. They only attend to big orders it seems like. So rude. I left. read more

Ordered on Uber eats.. called up to help give directions on what to put in the chicken plate as the app did not have options for the included sides .. the owner said he doesn't do Uber eats and slammed down the phone. Called back, and tried to talk through our order from Uber eats, he says he doesn't handle it and Uber eats places the order and he doesn't do Uber eats. He raised his voice and I asked why he is screaming at me, I am a customer and he said I have a packed house, and I said I understand but I placed an order and I'm a customer and you are being rude and he said I don't do Uber eats. I said we give you a lot of business and we get a lot of food from you, well never come back, his reply : please, Please do me a favor and promise me you'll never come back. Shortly after, he cancelled our order after the driver was already on the way, funny for someone who "doesn't do Uber eats". I have never been so disrespected by a business owner or anyone for that matter and I think everyone should think twice before giving business to this restaurant. If you want your shawarma with a side of rude enjoy. Shocking for an owner to talk to a customer this way. Best of luck mr levy read more

Yes the owner and the ordering system is unconventional but that just add to the atmosphere. Hands down the beast place for shawarma and falafel in the area. The zhug is hot and flavorful, as is every slaps they jam into that fluffy Israeli style pita. The owner is hilarious since he works the place and keeps it running. Don't get offended when he yells over to you to go pick your salad, it's part of the process. This is the Israeli falafel stand experience. They aren't irritated by you or being rude they are being efficient. They are too busy serving some of the best shawarma and falafel outside of Jerusalem, so cut them some slack. Did I mention the meal includes all the pickles and other pickled vegetables you can stuff in yourself? That too... great experience, go in there thinking you are in Israel. read more

My shawarma was delicious, but the customer service sucked. I get in line at the counter the guy making the food says in a rude way, what do you want? No hello, can I help you or what would you like to order. Then I asked a the server for a fork, the Spanish speaking server told me I didn't need one because you are eating a shawarma. Then I asked for more napkins, it was like pulling teeth just to get one napkin. Again the food was delicious, but will not patronize this establishment. read more

The service here is just terrible. Took forever to order food and even longer to receive. Food came and was nor correct/ also was charged incorrect. I love kosher places and usually want to give good reviews, but they need to work on this location. I like that the staff is friendly- just forgetful and understaffed. The burger was delicious- but they charge obscene prices for upgrades to meals so beware. I wish prices were better communicated. read more

Great place for your israeli / deli cravings. The menu and the service is outstanding, everything is fresh, tasty and served with a smile. The shawarma is served piled high on a platter or pita with the most amazing unlimited sides and salads. The deli sandwiches are the best you can have this side of NYC... We were 10 on our table and each one was enjoying his meal with no complaints. Grilled chicken, hamburgers, amazing vegetarian options came and went with joy. The icing of the cake was when the owner came to our table with a gift of turkish coffee and babka for everyone and sat with us.... Talk about israeli friendliness and the owner's "touch" to help make a place successful. We'll be back! read more

Not Returning: Dirty Restaurant, there was a long black hair in my food and when confronted the owner, he said; "Oh, I will tell the kitchen staff to wear hairnet." No sorry, no refund, no would like another one. Also, they advertised their Shawarma as a lamb and, it is 80% cheap chickens and ONLY 20% lamb. The owner told me himself. read more

If this review was based on the food alone I might have given Levy's Shawarma four stars. Unfortunately, Levy's Shawarma has all the charm of an Israeli restaurant with Israeli service. And I don't mean that in a good way. The waitresses were impatient and did a poor job explaining differences between different items on the menu (like the difference between the pita, laffa, plate and dinner options (this also could be solved by a better written menu). Maybe if they had done a better job explaining how they serve the food at this particular restaurant, I would not have been yelled at by the man serving the sides. Based on his attitude, you would think that I was in a prison and I was holding up the food line when he had 400 other prisoners to feed. It was really unprofessional. Overall, I thought the food was pretty good with the exception of the Shawarma. I found this chicken and lamb mixture to be both dry and seemingly devoid of lamb. I did meet the owner later and he was really nice but either he doesn't know how his restaurant is being run or he doesn't really care (or know any better). I guess if you're looking for decent kosher Middle Eastern food and nothing else you're at the right place. But if you're looking for a decent dining experience try somewhere else. read more

Went ther this past week and ordered 2 dinners to go The counter help was not at all accommodating After selecting a few salads he tell me it's enough Then I asked for chopped tomatoes only and he said there were no more tomatoes when one of the servers heard me discussing this with him she immediately went to the back and got more tomatoes And if that wasn't enough the young man at the cashier asked me twice what I was waiting for and twice I had to tell him my food Service is terrible and the food was not what it used to be Their chips were half raw and the schnitzel was overcooked read more
