Been going here since 2012 when I went to Georgia Perimeter College. Best Shawarma east of the Mississippi!! Try it you won't be disappointed! read more

Delicious, and Manna is always the best! The chicken plate is the best, and she always remembers us and what our usual orders are.

I've been enjoying Ms. Manna's delicious Eritrean food for several years. Always fresh, everything made-to-order and worth the wait. Highly recommend her spicy chicken shwarma wrap and equally yummy spicy falafel wrap! read more

Y'all the way I crave this salad!! It's so good and the ingredients are always fresh, gotta get it spicy!! Idk what she puts in that hummus but it's SO good. The perfect example of excellent ingredients making a dish perfect. The owner is so kind, she always remembers me when I go. There is some seating inside and also on the small patio but I usually take it to go and eat it at my office. read more

I came here to do a pickup order for dinner and got the combination plate and the vegetarian plate. The food was delicious and flavorful and servings are large!

Visited Merhaba Shawarma late last week for an early dinner. The restaurant is easy to find, but the parking lot is small, like enough-parking-spaces-for-6 cars small. There was only one other car when I stopped to order food, so the small parking lot was of little concern for me. I have no idea what the inside of the very small restaurant looks like. Due to Covid-19, the friendly female owner had locked the front door and posted a limited menu on the glass door. She keeps an eye on people who show up at the door, and, while you're still standing outside, will take your order, then, while you wait outside, will lock the door and cook your food and prepare it for take out. You can also call your order ahead of your arrival. I ordered the beef shawarma plate and took it home to eat. For the good price and the amount of food given, it was a good deal. The weight of the food must've been well over a pound. Strips of beef were placed on top of a very generous helping of spiced rice. However, I didn't really care for the taste of the beef. I'm not sure if I actually was given the beef, because it tasted more like lamb, but it could've been the spices. I should have listened to that knowing voice in my head when I ordered. My brain told me to order the chicken, but my mouth overruled and told the owner beef. The salad, which had what tasted like a vinaigrette, was good. If I come back, I will try the chicken next time. read more

The service was great and so was the food! I had the shawarma plate on rice and it was delicious and filling. There is limited seating inside so we sat under the awning outside and it was lovely. Will be back again. read more

Eating isn't just about the food, it's the vibe too. Beautiful spot right by the rail tracks in Clarkston. A warm and friendly elderly woman working at the front desk took my order and was very attentive. Southern hospitality and immigrant hospitality. Only in Atlanta. I got the combo plate and it was great, meat and salad were fresh and fries were crisp. A great sunny day and good vibes. Come for the food stay because you're happy. read more

Nice owner. Order your Sharma spicy! Very little Parking or inside tables. Chicken is not as good as the gyro.

I met the owner and she was great! So incredibly nice and the food was outstanding. I was sooo excited to try it for the first time I forgot to take a picture. The portion was big enough to have another meal later! The sauce on the shawarma is magic! Do yourself a favor and just ask for extra! It's worth it. read more

I love this little place and OMGosh the Chicken Shawarma with garlic sauce and fried rice was so tasty and yummy, I came back the next day for another. You'll be greeted by a lovely Eritrean woman Manna the Chef/co-owner that clearly puts real care into her food. It's just only 4 miles away from my work, so I am grateful to have tried and found it. Just one more thing to love about Merhaba Shawarma is very cozy and friendly space. This place might be very small with 8 to 10 seating at a time and not fancy, but the food is amazing. The lady that served me very sweet, nice, welcoming and friendly. Absolutely loved it. I'm there at least once a month or more. Shawarma is a Levantine Arab meat preparation, where lamb, goat, chicken, turkey, beef, or mixed meats are placed on a spit, commonly a vertical spit in restaurants and may be grilled for as long as a day. Shavings are cut off the block of meat for serving, and the remainder of the block of meat is kept heated on the rotating spit. Although it can be served in shavings on a plate, generally with accompaniments. Shawarma also refers to a pita bread sandwich or wrap made with Shawarma meat. Shawarma is eaten with tabbouleh, fattoush, tomato, and cucumber. Toppings include hummus, pickled turnips and amba. Shawarma is a fast-food staple across the Middle East, Europe, and the Caucasus.

Best shawarma EVER !!! I've Been eating her for years ! My Uncle & I LOVE everything she makes ! The service is always phenomenal , She is always so sweet and kind greeting everyone who walks in ! read more

There's much to like here! All of the food is excellent and prepared by the owner, Manna, herself. The food is tasty while being actually healthy as well. Parking is sometimes a hassle, especially around lunch time. There's plenty of parking, however, around the corner on Main Street. All of the food is prepared to take out but there are a couple of tables indoors and a couple of nice tables out in front of the building. read more

I consider myself to be very fortunate to be close in driving distance to the Clarkson neighborhood. This place has been on my list of "Places to visit" & I'm glad they're holding on even as we all get through this COVID-19 pandemic together. Their food is Nom!Nom!Nom! SOOO good! Great energy here in this wonderful little international community. Happy to support our local global community. Now, 'bout to throw down on this food & be blessed! read more

Was looking for options whittle at Clarkston. Came across this small hole in the wall through Yelp. Glad I tried it out. The Shawarma lamb plate I had was so good. The rice is flavored well and the salad was good. The place is small with a few tables and chairs but you can still eat in the restaurant. The lady working it is not very fast as it's a small space and she's the only one there. It's still worth the wait. I wish I tried the hummus and the baklava looked so good. read more

Manna's food is amazing and she is even better!!! So tasty and generous portions. Highly recommend.

We went at 6:30 pm on a Wednesday. It was closed with no hours listed. We had folks coming from Athens. Very disappointed and based on this poor customer service I don't foresee going back. I'd give them 0 stars because, uh, closed. What does this picture even mean? Well maybe if you had said you were on vacation I wouldn't have been so upset. We had folks drive down from Athens, Ga to eat there. No hours posted, no explanation. I understand needing a break, but that should be communicated to your customers. Nowhere did it say that. Not at the store, on the sign or the website. Nor did it say when you'd "be back". 5 minutes? 5 weeks? Most people are understanding if you communicate. read more

Merhaba Shawarma - This doesn't even make sense! - Mediterranean Near Me - Clarkston, Georgia

Food was delicious! Best falafel I've ever had- crispy and oh so flavorful. Be patient, though, because the owner runs everything- she has no other employee. Ring the doorbell and she will come and take your order. Parking is tight and there is no indoor seating. Those small inconveniences should not deter you from patronizing this amazing establishment. read more

Ran across this place randomly, we wanted a quick bite, so we stopped by. So glad we decided to come here and support this business! Food was so good that I didn't even get a chance to get a picture of my plate I ate it so fast! My hubby got the gyro platter w rice and salad, and I got the chicken shawarma platter w rice and salad. Both dishes were packed with sooo much flavor! You can literally taste the love in the food. Not only was it delicious, but also, they give big portions. I will definitely be coming back to try more items on the menu. Thank you for our great food and awesome customer service! read more

Good Service, really good spicy falafel ... Terrible hummis The lady that works the front is super friendly and makes all the food fresh to order The falafel sandwich is made with wheat flour pita, which doesn't taste too flavorful. The spicy sauce is really good, and the falafel is crisped fresh. The wrap includes fresh pickles and onions with tahini and lettuce The hummus was gross, overload of garlic, a slight drizzle of olive oil and some weird chunks of curds through out = skip it read more

Merhaba Shawarma - Falafel Sandwhich Wrap (grill pressed) - Mediterranean Near Me - Clarkston, Georgia

The flavor was good but the chicken was old. It tasted like left over chicken . I couldn't eat most of it because it was so hard. It was a Tuesday around lunch time when I ate there. Maybe if they had more business during the week, the food would be fresher. The food was hot but it was clearly just heated in a microwave. There were even some hard clumps of rice, which tells me that it was yesterdays rice as well. I soooooo wish the food would have been fresh. I would have been able to give this place 5 stars. The lady who takes your order is very nice and accommodating. I just think that it's expensive to make fresh food when you may not sell it all especially in this economy, but I will not visit this place again. I can't risk paying $15 for food that isn't fresh, again. read more

I love this place! Realllllllly amazing spicy Chicken Shawarma wrap! My favorite thing to get here aside from the heaven-sent Mango Lassi (drink). The owner is such a cool guy, incredibly nice. If you're near the Memorial/Rockbridge area, you should drop in! read more

The food was great. We were not sure what to expect, but everything was so flavorful and good. The lettuce was crispy and fresh. The chicken wrap and the chicken and rice with salad were so good. Much better than we get in other places. We were impressed that the restaurant inspection sheet on the wall said 100 A. You don't often see that in restaurants. We will definitely go there again. read more

Such a wonderful experience here!! She is a stunning lady that runs it by herself, and does an amazing job. The service was great, she was so kind, and you can tell the locals really love the place! As far as the shawarma, literally the best I've ever had. Can't recommend this place enough! read more

I ordered A falafel wrap. I didn't ask for anything special or removed. I just wanted to see what they had to offer. I was asked if I wanted it spicy. I said yes. I've tried a lot of falafel in Atlanta in the last 14 months. This one is average on ingredients but slightly above on taste. The falafel itself was a little dry. Not the classic dry as bone garbage from imposters but not much better. For just under $7, it might be worth it if it's on your way. But for me, it wasn't worth the 4.6 mile drive. I will still try other things in the future. It's not fair to judge the place by a single menu item The parking is almost non existent. If you have a small car you're fine. The seating inside is about two small tables but the whole place looks really clean. The lady behind the counter is very nice and courteous. Non comital About recommending. For what it's worth, the best falafel I've had is either from yallas or ameers. Yalla makes their laffas so they get an edge but you have to contend with krog street market... read more

Merhaba Shawarma - Pen for scale - Mediterranean Near Me - Clarkston, Georgia

Clarkston, GA has been called one of the most ethnically diverse areas in Georgia, and Merhaba Shawarma fits right in to that discription. Leaving Revolution coffee, which is literally a stones throw away from Merhaba, if you aren't looking for it, you may miss it because it's a very small lot, holding maybe 5 or 6 cars. Walk inside and you probably have seats for about that many people as well (3 tables inside, 2 tables outside). 2 of the tables were occupied inside, so I decided to take the third. The woman working the store (not sure if she's the owner), was very friendly, and helped me narrow down my selection (I didn't want a dish with much rice) so I decided on the wrap ($6.99) I was undecided on the meat (she mentioned chicken was their top seller, the beef looked great) so she allowed me to mix chicken and beef in the wrap (very cool!). In the wrap came banana peppers, pickles, lettuce tomato, red onion, garlic sauce and a spicy sauce, all wrapped in a warm pita. From the first bite, I was in love! Flavors punched my tongue in the mouth and the flavors of this thing were crazy good! In addition to the wrap, I ordered a side of Hummus ($2.99), which also came with warm pita. The hummus, I have to admit, is why I can't give them 5 stars. It was swimming in oil, and it was missing something in terms of seasonings. Minus the oil, it wasn't bad, but it couldn't hold a candle to the wrap. Located at the intersection of Ponce de Leon and Market Street, Merhaba Shawarma is right next door to a small auto shop, and like I said, if you aren't looking for it, it's easy to miss, but it's definitely worth a stop in for a bite to eat. Small hole in the wall place with big vibrant flavors. Please check these guys out and give them some business! read more

Best shawarma spot in Atlanta hands down. isn't always open but when she is the food and service are excellent

So, so good. Everything is seasoned well, and the portions are large. I had a combo plate consisting of the chicken shawarma and gyro on top of rice, and a side salad. The garlic sauce is amazing, and ask for spicy if you like some heat! Excellent customer service, and extremely accommodating. Not much table space for large parties, and limited parking. Will definitely be back! read more
