    Update 9/20, got 3 chicken schwarmas and 1 lamb gyro to go.. well apparently they haven't learned anything in the past few months. The chicken and lamb were extremely dry.... And for $10 I would expect better... our last time there.

    Sorry excuse for a chicken shawarma.

    I've been trying to get into this place and try it for a year but found it closed, or we're turned away because they were close to closing. Today I finally got inside to order. "A Chicken Shawarma and fries," I requested from the lady, "and a Falafal wrap for my wife, please. Paid and waited for the order to be bagged and went home looking forward to a nice meal. WHAT A DISSAPOINTMENT ! First, there were no fries, sadly because they might have been the best part of the meal. The chicken shawarma was mostly a wilted salad with tasteless shaved chicken on top. Horrible! My wife's wrap was doughy, not crispy like a good, fresh falafel. So, after all this time, I find the dining exto be lacking any effort in taste or presentation. Won't waste my money there again...

    Food was delicious Service was fast Very welcoming atmosphere with an international ambiance. I think this is a fantastic option with budget friendly menu choices.

    Good food. We enjoyed it. I had a lamb gyro and wifey had the falafel plate. The falafel tastes good and had a pretty neat appearance. Round like small donuts in shape almost and had sesame seeds on top. Always cool when the food doesn't just taste good but has a nifty presentation as well. I like how the falafel looked. The gyro was delicious. They also gave us some pita bread with the order. My only suggestion would be that the pita bread be warmed before being served. But that didn't take away from us enjoying our meal. The small order of hummus is a very generous size. It's big! Go here! The food is good.

    An amazing chicken shawarma wrap  w/ garlic sauce & salad & fries . SO AMAZING! 100/10

    100/10!! Amazing food! The chicken shawarma wrap is amazing! And the salad, is wonderful and refreshing!

    For $14 I don't think this was worth it but to each their own. I would recommend going somewhere that doesn't over charge. It started when she told me it was false advertisement on their website . The lady at the register was very rude when I asked her about the plate she started to scream at me in front of the guest when I simply asked her. If there was a "side salad" with my order and she replied " that's called a plate! Everything online is wrong and we change the menu daily." So when I looked at the in store menu and it wasn't an option and she told me that, you have to specifically ask for a plate and asked why I am being mean? Am I not allowed to ask questions about what I saw on their website. I was trying to help a guest order his food in the process of her screaming at me and told him that the bowl only comes with chicken and rice if you get the plate it comes with hummus and salad and your choice of protein with a side of rice and the lady started going off even more and the man felt so uncomfortable that he ended up walking out. I ended up getting half my money back but she was still screaming at me and towards the end she says. " I'm having a bad day so I'm sorry." And I told her that she shouldn't put her anger on the customers because her bad day has NOTHING to do with me. I will no longer give a dime to this restaurant. The manager spoke to me and apologized for the ladies attitude but how rude and embarrassing to be screamed at for "your bad day".

    Mr. Shawarma is a quaint restaurant off 9th Avenue just a minute from Cordova mall with a couple tables for inside seating and delicious Mediterranean cuisine. We ordered two lamb shawarma wraps at 9.99 each, a delicious chicken shawarma over greens (with fresh vegetables sweet peppers, onions, lightly dressed) at 9.99, and a large fry which was more than enough for the four of us to share at 4.99. The shawarma wraps were fresh and delicious, as was the salad, which was perfectly dressed and refreshing yet filling. The fries were just normal and could have used some seasoning but were hot and crispy. Overall a great experience for us tonight!

    I usually do not give a review less than 3 stars, but today was an exception…read more We got the gyro sandwich with fries and two drinks plus Kibeh for starters. One good thing, I like the location. The dining room better than the downtown location. Now for the bad. $30 for two sandwiches and to add fries it was an extra $12. That is $42 for two gyro with fries ($21 each) NOT WORTH IT!!! In addition to the $12 combo up charge, we were charged separately for two sodas. So $6 for french fries that is made by Ore Ida's was unnecessary. May be $2 is acceptable. Our check for lunch including tips was $75!!! I understand times are hard and everyone is raising their prices after COVID, but that was 6 years ago!!! STOP taking advantage of your consumers. We are not standing for it anymore. It unacceptable! Customer deserves quality and value! Period. Moving forward, if I visit a restaurant raising their prices just to take advantage of their consumer I will give them 1 star. Unfortunately, this place was the first 1 star. They've earned it. The quality is not consistent with downtown location, the Kibeh taste like someone spilled a bottle ground cinnamon. Yuck! Good luck, I hope that $75 was worth it because I will never come back with these prices.

When I received my food. My meat was dry and burned. My baklava was the size of 2 postage stamps for 699 and it was still frozen. Very unhappy and I will not come here again. We sat there for 45 minutes waiting for them to prepare our food. The shawarma was NOT shawarma and the kufta was made of unseasoned ground beef. It was so bland. It wasn't like they were super busy. They only had one table of people.

    In this economy it's really hard to find healthy affordable options. I have no problem paying for…read morehealthy food, but what a nice surprise to actually find an affordable gem not too far from where my parents live (and where I am most of the time when I'm not traveling or living abroad as a nomad). I never have a need to get hummus from the grocery store or even make it myself when I'm in Pensacola anymore! The hummus at Chickpea house is so good and super affordable. The menu is super simple. Pita, falafel, fries, hummus, tahini, and a few veggies for salad and to make a sandwich (which is a pita with falafel in it). I would like to say this place is vegan, but since I didn't see it listed anywhere on the menu I'll just say that this place is good for vegetarians for sure. Not gonna lie I love Mediterranean meats and I would love to see kafta or any lamb on the menu. I understand that the simplicity is what makes this non-traditional Palestinian restaurant efficient and fast casual, however! To be honest, the fact that falafel is really the only protein available is probably the only reason why I'm not at this spot once a week while I'm in town. Other than that I highly recommend!

    The chickpea nuggets were bland. They could really use some seasoning. I didn't like the tzatziki…read moresauce either it was a bit too sour. The fries were WAY too salty, I could not eat them. The staff could definitely use some work in the hospitality and customer service department. The kiosks in the front seemed impersonal and the staff literally refer you to the kiosk for everything. The interior is nice and clean but weird. The front where you order is disconnected from the eating area. A side of hot sauce is a dollar. Totally not worth a dollar for hot sauce. The sandwich on pita was said to be good. I didn't try it.

We decided to stay, and we're glad we did. Atmosphere & Vibe: The inside is warm and homey. It feels like a spot made for a lovely date. Definitely has that family-run vibe. Service: The owner greeted us, chatted with us a bit, and made us feel welcome right away. Super friendly and laid-back. Food: I had the lasagna, and my girlfriend got the gyro and baklava. The food came out quick. Lasagna was solid, but the gyro was amazing, lamb was tender and full of flavor. The pita was slightly burnt, but it didn't ruin it. Extras: The owner brought us a free Alfredo pasta, really creamy and tasty. Then he gave us the baklava on the house and even threw in a brownie for me, saying, "The baklava is on the house and the brownie is for him." That was a nice touch. (And we were really happy that we even forgot about taking a picture) Overall: Not much from the outside, but once you're in, it's a great spot with good food and personal service. We'll definitely be back. WE LOVED THIS PLACE!!
