TikTok made me come here! I watched several videos of this place and I was craving a shawarma just from the videos! I will say it was good, I ordered chicken and beef for hubby, and he approved on the beef one said it was his fav! The fries for me were really crispy and delicious! The pics and video from TikTok make the shawarmas look HUGE! They aren't even that big. Oh well, it was atleast good but maybe not worth the $11 for each.

Very disappointing experience at Shawarma Press in Johns Creek. I visited tonight with my family and ordered around 8:25 PM. From the moment I ordered, the employee was extremely rude, repeatedly reminding us that they were closing at 9 PM and giving us countdowns of how many minutes we had left. My nephew ordered a beef rice bowl but didn't like the meat due to a strong smell. I asked if it could be replaced with chicken. The employee rudely said I would have to pay for another bowl. I said he could keep the beef bowl and just give me the chicken instead. He took the bowl, and a few minutes later told me he had thrown it away because he thought I asked him to trash it. When I questioned what happened, he told me "get the f* out of here"** and refused to make the chicken unless I paid for it. The food aside, the employee's attitude and treatment of my family--including my young kids and parents--was completely unacceptable. I've never experienced this level of disrespect at a restaurant. I did call the restaurant and spoke with someone who was nice and handles their catering. I got call from the manager and apologize, but based on this experience, I cannot recommend this location. Customer service matters, and tonight's experience was simply unacceptable.

Authentic Chicken Shawarma
Michelle H.

Shawarma Press is fast-ish food chain restaurant of casual Mediterranean food that focuses on shawarmas! There is an okay amount of seating and the vibes inside are very lax. I ordered at the self-service kiosk and my food came out quickly. I got the Authentic Chicken Shawarma which was really long and slim. However, it was packed with meat, pickles, and garlic sauce. I also added fries for an extra crunch. The entire meal was very filling and delicious. I really liked the pickles and garlic sauce, although I wish there was more garlic sauce in my shawarma. I think this is a solid spot for shawarmas, plus it was not that pricey which makes it a nice spot to grab something good without breaking the bank.

A coupon ad
Tony C.

Went in to use this coupon but was told "We can't do it, only when the manager is here." I said "That doesn't make any sense, call them." Only to be told "It's his day off." What kind of place runs an ad and then doesn't honor it when customers come in to use it? Who's schedule is going to revolve around knowing when the manager is in??

*Kids Meal Shawarma Melt/Small Fries/Small Drink
Fran S.

Small quaint sandwich shop with real shawarma style flair including the flame skewered meat rotating near the grill. I ordered the kids meal because itvwas getting later in the day and I did not want to have that heavy food feeling. I was glad I ordered the melted chicken shawarma press with fries and a drink for the kids meal because it was a generous portion and it left me satisfied. The chicken was sliced thin and the cheese and bread perfectly nestled together to create a wrap of yummy comfort. The fries were seasoned and hot. The service was fast and friendly. Must do again in the future!

6/24 beef shawarma platter - super salty
Georgia B.

NO. This resto seems to be the first Atlanta metro location by this Texas chain. +. Ambiance is clean, small fast food set up. Order process is self order at 2 automated kiosks. When your food is ready, they call your name for a pick up. There are less than 10 2-4 seater tables. - - - Food is limited premade Mediterranean and warmed up breads ( tortillas & thick pitas). Their beef shawarma was super salty. Their pita was terrible off the shelf cardboard. I couldn't eat more than 20% of the bowl and tossed the rest. My friend too found their beef shawarma wraps excessively salty! Afterwards, I was nauseous for 2-3 hours :((. Perplexing is the Yelp rating. +. Price is reasonable $10-$20pp. But terrible that we paid money to receive mis-seasoned dishes and suffer after!! ++ Service was friendly and helpful. The staff warmed up a tortilla for me as I couldn't eat their pitas. +. Parking is shared with other merchants. Perhaps it was an off batch of beef shawarma. However, it's unforgivable that they didn't taste and quality check prior to serving to customers. I was so looking forward to finding a good Mediterranean resto, only to be completely disappointed. This is a one and done as I don't repeat restos that serve food that made me ill. MY RATINGS - - - Inhumane - - Disgusted - Don't bother = Missed the Mark + Good ++ Better +++ EDIBLE... WHERE have you been all my LiFe!

Tandoori chicken wrap to-go
Alex K.

Excited to see a shawarma place open here, so I tried it right away. I usually opt for a normal chicken but I saw the tandoori wrap and had to have it. It was delicious, but unfortunately way too salty as-is. There were tomatoes but very little. I remedied it by cutting up half a tomato and eating it tomato chunks, and that was able to balance it so I enjoyed the rest. It's hefty enough that you can make 2 meals out of it. Lettuce would have helped as well but I didn't have any. Need to take advantage of any vegetables they will add when they make it. I'll be back to try other items. The beer shawarma looks good with Tahini sauce.

Inside restaurant
Kike F.

Mediterranean food place, decoration was nice, everything looks clean and sanitized, food was hot and good but we were expecting a real pita wrap instead is like a burrito tortilla, it's closer to mex style food, ingredients were fresh but not a real arabian flavor, service was friendly and professional. Experience was good in general.

Tandoori Press Shawarma 11"
Grace M.

I have been wanting to try this place since it opened and finally got the chance to. I called the place for an order and they only offer online ordering through their app or their website. It is in the John Creek common shopping center with parking out front. There is a touch screen inside for you to place your order as well. My order was ready in 10 mins and they packaged it really well. I ordered the tandoori chicken press and the hummus plate with 1/2 chicken and 1/2 beef. The hummus plate was packed! I like there's a divider for all the different components. The only thing is I wish the hummus is warmed up since it was cold. The chicken and beef are both delicious and flavorful. The tandoori chicken press was so good. It's saucey and I love the wrap pressed. I would visit and try other items next time. It was easy to place the order online and pick it up. There were plenty of room inside with sanitizer and everything is bright and clean.

Ordering kiosk and menu
Wendy C.

Wow! Seriously if you're looking for yummy-fresh Mediterranean food, look no further. Everything was fresh and delicious. The workers acknowledged us when we walked it. We chose to use the kiosk to order as someone was being helped at the register when we walked in. The kiosk was so easy to use however the menu gave a bit more information on what the items were made of. The place was a bit packed which had us anticipating that the food would be good. Everything was made to order except for the desserts (which was expected). The hummus and falafel were an explosion of fresh flavors. And the chicken wrap the chicken wrap is a must try-will definitely order again.

There's no formal dress code, so some tables were fully dressed in fancy outfits celebrating birthdays. While other tables were in sweatshirts and jeans. So just wear whatever you want. The small appetizer plate they bring out is good, I ate the flat bread with a hummus I ordered. The hummus is solid but I'd probably try a different dip the next time. I ordered the Salmon kebab plate. I was asked how I wanted my salmon cooked, and I said well-done. But how they cooked it was amazing! The salmon was fully cooked but still flaky and tender, and juicy. I found it flavorful enough, but there is a salt and pepper grinder on the table if you need it. It comes with a roasted tomato and a huge mound of saffron rice. I liked the rice a lot but it is a bit plain. If you want a more flavorful or interesting rice, you can add a different rice for $4. Those extra charge ones come with a lot more toppings like different nuts, herbs, or dried fruits. I'd like to try more different dishes next time, but what I was very satisfied by what I ordered. The restaurant is very dimly lit. The server was very nice and attentive. It's in a strip mall area so parking isn't hard to find.

Great friendly service. The best hummus I've had so far and great food overall. I definitely…read morerecommend coming hungry and saving room for dessert.
