Among the sea of food carts at the Midtown Beer Garden in downtown, Shawarma House really stands out for its excellent quality, flavor, and price. I went with their recommendation and ordered the No. 1 Chicken Shawarma Wrap, and it was fantastic. The shawarma itself was juicy and packed with flavor, and it balanced really nicely against the fresh vegetables and the tanginess from the pickles. The fluffy garlic sauce inside is airy, garlicky, and almost feels whipped, but the pro move is definitely to ask for extra along with some of their house made hot sauce on the side. Everything is wrapped and griddled to toasty perfection, making it an ideal compact grab-and-go lunch, or a great meal to enjoy more leisurely at one of the shaded picnic tables. One thing to note is that the orders do take a bit of time, so it is not the best option if you are in a rush. That said, it is absolutely worth it if you have a little time and patience, so just grab a brew, relax, and enjoy the weather while you wait. read more

I have been to this new food cart pod several times ever since I read about it. If my memory is correct, the article claimed that it is the largest food cart pod in the state. Although it is still new and not all the spaces are filled yet, it seems like it will be a great place to dine there on nice weather days. I had already tried their bingsu food cart. This time I tried the Shawarma House. There are about 3 food carts that serve similar or the same food. I had the triple meat plate. It consisted of lamb, chicken and beef. It came with pita bread and hummus and tzatziki sauce. The sauce that drizzled on top was good but I couldn't quite tell what it was. The lamb meat was by far the best. The chicken and beef was okayed. Hummus and tzatziki serving was large. I wish I had more pita bread so I didn't have to waste the dipping. There was a good amount of rice under the meat. The plate was good overall but there was not enough sauce drizzled on the top. As a result, everything seemed dry. read more

There were so many options to choose from inside of the Midtown Beer Garden food truck pod, but Shawarma house caught my eye. I like Mediterranean food and gyros because it tastes yummy, it's refreshing, and it's a well balanced meal! They offer over 30 items on their menu, including a few sides. I opted for #13 which is the lamb plate because it looked delicious based off of the menu picture. What I got was slightly different from what was displayed because the meat is not made the same way, however it was still yummy! The rice was cooked kind of al dente and it also had different colors to it. The colors were ranging from white, yellow, and bright orange which was interesting. I ate everything up, and basically licked the hummus and tzatziki sauce from the plate until it was clean. I was satisfied with the meal. Service was relatively fast the worker was nice. After placing the order, you are given a buzzer. I went 1 hour after they opened on a Monday and I got my food within 10 minutes. Also, there are a lot of cute pigeons in the seating area, so watch out where you sit! read more

Good service not good food actually pretty bad we didn't finish or took one bite and said OK. That's not it because the chicken was dried out. Seems like it was from 2 to 3 days ago not good. Would recommend you not to go here. read more

The staff were super friendly and very responsive. The falafel wrap itself was fresh but had more sauces than I asked for. The falafel themselves were kind of mushy, but the wrap itself was beautifully toasted. Overall, a-okay! read more

Not to mention, he threw in a free chicken wrap for us. Seriously? Ya don't get that kind of service and friendliness often anymore. Shawarma House is the truck ya want!! read more

We visited over the weekend based on some reviews we saw online. Shawarma house has a massive selection of entrees, but we went with the lamb over fries and were not dissapointed at all. We did have friends that seemed not to like lamb over rice so I would keep that in mind if you decide to visit Service is good as you would expect for a food truck nothing bad about it at all Plenty of seating around and there are heaters if it's cold that day which we appreciated. There's a ton of additional options if shawarma isn't for you. read more

Yelp says this place is permanently closed, but it's not! This amazing food truck is in an area with a bunch of other food trucks so lots of options to choose from but shawarma house is definitely the truck to try. Food came out quick and was fresh and tasty! We got the lamb over fries and it was the best call we made. My friends got the chicken and lamb saj which they said was flavorful as well! Portion size is pretty good. The lamb with the different sauces on top of the fries hit the spot. Would definitely recommend stopping here! They had covered seating with heat lamps as well. read more

The dishes are delicious and well-portioned for the price. Nothing is a miss! Their Falafels have a nice outer crisp and pair well with the creamy hummus and fragrant naan. My partner's Beef Over Fries is pretty solid too. We have an enjoyable meal and go home with a lot of leftovers. read more

Shawarma House - Beef Shawarma Bites with Fries & Falafel Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I went there a day ago and had one of the best shawarma I've had so thought I'd go back. I ordered the same shawarma and got something completely different. The meat in it was completely dry and there was no sauce in it. I had also ordered a chicken shawarma as well which was even worse. Completely bone dry. Only took a few bites and had to toss both out. The chicken in it was like chicken jerky. I have a feeling it was reheated leftovers. The picture is from the combo shawarma. You can see that there's no sauce on it. The exact same order from yesterday was dripping with sauce. Really disappointing. If you order from here, make sure the main guy is there. Today the cook looked like he was 12. read more

Grabbed a gyro on my lunch break. The owners were friendly and accommodating, my order came out quick, the gyro was delicious and fresh and the size of my head (And I have a big head).

This is our first here, we've been meaning to stop by, when we passed by a few months ago. We were heading to Black Bear restaurant, when we pulled in the parking lot, I spotted CORE, and remembered: I wanted to try this new pod! It's Sunday, there weren't many opened, but the first one we spotted I already knew I wanted to eat at Shawarma. I picked Lamb Wrap, hubby picked Giant Gyros. I went back in the car, it's much warmer and safer. It didn't take long, when hubby came back with our food. We picnicked in the car. I was shocked, how long it was! (It could have been cut in half like in the photo). By the time, I ate half, it started to drip, and I caught it just in the nick of time, so it didn't go on my nice, church clothes! It was so good, though! The Gyros was very generous with meat, & delicious. He ate every bite! These two foods, will always be our favorites! read more

YUMMY!!! This place has one, if not THE BEST lamb gyro in Portland. For reference, I'm comparing this to the Moonlight Mediterranean Food Cart just a few minutes away which also has reaaaally good lamb gyro. You MUST try the lamb gyro here. I never used to eat lamb but I took a leap of faith to try both this place and Moonlight Mediterranean and they have both converted me to being believers LOL. read more

The food is delicious! I get the chicken bowl and was amazed with the flavor bomb after my first try, I had to come back for more.

Flavor was good, but, absolutely no produce on it. The menu said lettuce, tomato, pickles, and onion. There was a pickle in there, but zero lettuce or tomato. I think I detected an onion, but maybe one little piece. Not sure if I'm missing something or what. But I love a shawarma loaded with produce, and the photos look nothing like what I got. read more

so yummy and kind owners!!! they give a very big portion and the food was fresh and flavorful :) they also gave me a free falafel ;-; it's in a nice food cart courtyard and fun to eat outside in the patio!! highly recommend! thank you for the yummy food ^-^ read more

Went for the gyro, talked into the Shawarma and it was awesome! Great food, quick, great service, will definitely return.

The shawarma gyro is fire! And it's such a huge portion, enough for 2 meals. When I order delivery everything is packaged well and it comes fresh, hot and never soggy. Highly recommended! read more

Two of us shared the Classic - loaded with tender chicken, it was just great! We did not need their hot sauce, as everything was welk seasoned and a juice lemon wax included to squeeze over it all. We weren't sure it was enuf food for I r 2 when ordering so we got tasty Pot Stickers and Seaweed Roll from the cart next door. Bargain lunch for 2, with Tske Home. A Pint of Bend's 8.1% Belgian Tripel (indoors at HH price) was also a sweet treat. Our last visit we shared a bowl from another cart. Also worth a return! read more

OKAY, THIS PLACE WAS THE BOMB!!! We got the lamb gyros, a chicken gyro, and the falafel platter, and fries (the fries are huge...so you only need one!). Get a side of the garlic sauce for the fries Nothing disappointed! And it was freezing outside, so we ate inside the Garden Tavern (they allow all food trucks patrons to eat in there...so grab a beer while you're there ). YUM!!!! read more

We split a chicken shawarma, it was absolutely delicious and was like an explosion of flavors. The garlic aioli was fantastic and complimented the wrap very well. Not to mention the price for the portion that we got was unbeatable. The man working the register was also kind and offered us a sample of their falafels which was of course also delicious. 10/10 definitely coming back! read more

Really great gyro! Meat had awesome flavor, everything tasted fresh. Dolmas were also very good. Hummus was a little too tahini heavy for me, but that's not necessarily a bad thing for everyone. Baklava was a little on the dry side and kinda fell apart. Overall a really good meal though. I would definitely eat here again. read more

THE BEST SHAWARMA EVER!! I have had a lot of shawarmas before..but THIS IS THE BEST. The owner was extremely kind and gave my family free falafels to try and it was heavenly!!! Please give this place a try :)) read more

I came for the gyro, but left with a gyro and lamb shawarma. Both were great! Great service! Highly recommend!

Shawarma Express is delicious! I'm excited to have discovered this spot because it's much closer to me and I no longer need to go all the way downtown when I'm craving Mediterranean/halal cuisine. We ordered the chicken plate + falafel plate and their plates are generous! We were able to have it for both lunch and dinner that day. Their saffron rice is probably the best I've tried here in Portland - so fragrant and fluffy. The chicken is flavored well and their falafels were incredible - so light and crispy. We came here for a late lunch on a Sunday and waited only about 10-15 minutes for our order. Prices are very reasonable for the amount of food you receive and for the quality as well. The food cart itself is tucked away in a food pod right off Williams - there's a few street parking spaces right out front but you can also park on the cross streets. Covered tables available in the pod if you want to sit out + enjoy your food read more

Best service. Best food. Best location. Can't recommend this spot enough! I typically go to them when I'm at the food carts, but I ordered for pickup today and it's the same quick and friendly service. Their dolmas, falafel, gyros, fries, everything is so good. read more

This food truck has the best shawarma! The Falafel was amazing plus the garlic sauce is so good! The owner gave us free taste of the falafel and my 7 y/o daughter asked for more.

In addition, the owner is friendly, smiling and engages with his customers. You should try this place. Highly recommend! read more
