I saw all the amazing reviews about Shawarma Shop and decided to give it a try ، and honestly, I'm not surprised! The place is connected to a gas station, but don't let that fool you ! the food is incredible! We ordered both beef and chicken shawarma. The portion sizes were broken g and great, and the flavor was absolutely juicy yummy and delicious. Although the garlic sauce was a bit heavy for me, but still tasty The fries are one of my favorite. They were perfectly crispy and you can tell they fry them really well. Prices are very reasonable, and even though the order took a little time, it was definitely worth the waite. The place is small, but it's a hidden gem that deserves a visit. I also liked that there's a mini pantry connected to it. a fun little bonus! read more

I LOVE a good shawarma. It's one of my favorite sandwiches. So when I drove past a place called "Shawarma Shop", I was really excited. I said "Shawarma is in their name... it's next to a gas station... I bet this place makes a good shawarma". I was sorely disappointed. The chicken did not appear to be cut from a spit. If it was, it was not cut immediately because it was sitting in a chafing dish. Because of this, the meat was very dry and lacked flavor/seasoning. The garlic sauce made up for the lack of flavor by overcompensating; it was the most potent garlic sauce I've ever had. I don't mind some lettuce in my shawarma sandwich, but there was a lot of lettuce, which bulked it up. The pickles were right, at least. The balance of the sandwich was all off and all I tasted was garlic. Fries were pretty good, but they were over-seasoned. Service was fast and friendly. Price was fine but I can get a much better shawarma sandwich elsewhere for less. Overall, I was not impressed and will not likely return. It's the next day and two tooth brushings and I still have a strong flavor of garlic in my mouth... yuck. (Hamido in Dearborn has an amazing shawarma for 25% less; totally worth the drive!) read more

I came to try this place after receiving many recommendations from fellow foodies. It's worth the hype! I was told that they were out of beef shawarma, so I ordered the kaftha reluctantly. It was fabulous! Tabbouleh is very fresh and perfect. Hummous and Babba were great, but much more oil garnish than I'm used to. Great pita and generous amount. I'll definitely return to try the falafel. read more

One of the best Shawarma I've ever had flavorful chicken and very spicy hot sauces. The food was flavorful and the place was nice !!! Great dude working the front!! read more

My new favorite thing is a food counter attached to a gas station- unassuming but righteous. Menu doesn't show which items are gluten free, but the staff is very knowledgeable about steering you to safe items. (The rice is gf safe). Chicken shawarma bowl was HUGE and delicious, the handwritten specials board looks promising. Yum! read more

This is not normally a place I would dine in, but thought to give out a try since Yelp reviews were pretty high. The sandwich wraps were pretty good, but the fries were a bit underdone and soggy. read more

This is hands down the best takeout restaurant for Lebanese /Syrian grilled meats, appetizers, and salads. succulent chicken or beef shawarmas and shish tawuq; creamy hummus and smoky baba ghannouj, fresh tabbouleh, and so on. A very busy place: place your order early and treat yourself. read more

Tucked away in a gas station this middle eastern restaurant was delicious Don't go there for the ambiance bit si go for the food.

You may think to yourself, "I don't need to get the combo." Which is exactly what my husband did when I put in our order. But one bite of those fries and you'll be kicking yourself (also what my husband did). Because they're that good. Hot, cripsy, and tossed in the most deletable seasoning. I could just eat those fries for a meal and be more than happy. But of course I also got a chicken shawarma sandwich and it was also fantastic. It's packed with plenty of juicy chicken, pickles, and their delicious garlic sauce. Generously portioned and reasonably priced to boot! We got delivery and I was impressed that the fries arrived crispy since a lot of the time they get soggy in transport (it's just physics, man. heat in a closed container = condensation. Not a businesses' fault) but this time our delivery was speedy enough that it didn't really impact it and I am forever grateful because these fries made my day. read more

Delicious gas station shawarma (not really a shop); still perfect for a mall pregame.

Shawarma sandwiches are very good here - very filling, fresh, and tasty garlic/pickles (I usually order extra). The kafta sandwich was also very good. However, the hummus was not very flavorful and the tabbouli was way too salty for me to eat (big fat bummer, since tabbouli is my thing.) The dogs did like the leftover hummus though, so I guess it wasn't a total loss. :) Overall good place to get lunch/dinner... prices good and friendly owners. Not much parking, but generally do carry out. The place itself is attached to a gas station, so don't expect much in the way of ambiance. ;) Definitely my go-to when I need a quick lunch carry out. read more

First time here. I ordered the falafel deluxe sandwich (falafel, hummus, and tabooli) for $8.49. It is cooked to order so I had to wait. It was past lunchtime but the place was still busy. It looked like one person cooks and one person packs. There is one table for two and the rest of the seating is bistro seating (high top seating facing the parking lot). When my sandwich was ready and the woman handed it to me, my first thought was - that's it? Second thought - overpriced. I still couldn't wait to try it. The wrap was soft and fresh. The falafel tasted ok but it wasn't crispy. I barely noticed the hummus. The tabooli was good but there wasn't much of it. I know this place isn't called Falafel Shop, but I still had high expectations. Won't be back. read more

Fattoush Salad. Perfect Pita crisps with a hint of...honey? I would love them just to have on hand to snack on. This salad is huge and delicious. The fries came hot as I have ever gotten from delivery. I was a tad disappointed because there wasn't any of the seasoning I read about in other reviews. They were still really, really good so I won't hold that as a negative. And now the chicken shawarma sandwich was A-mazing! Just like others have said. There are few restaurants which prompt me to say "mmmmmm" after each bite. This is definitely one of them! All in all, this place definitely worth a try! I can't wait to try everything. read more

Shawarma Shop - Hummus, falafel - Lebanese Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

Can I give 10 stars? Size: Their falafel is 5 times larger than other restaurants in the area. Quality: their falafel is always fresh out of the fryer. They fry to order. They refuse to sell you cold falafel. This means you have to wait longer, but it's worth it. Service and Kindness: Twice while waiting for my food, they offered me snacks. One time they gave baklava and today they gave me falafel. Very generous and kind. Oh wait. One last thing. Their Tahini is to die for; it's not diluted to almost a watery sauce like other restaurants. read more

Rice was steaming when it was plated but chicken was not hot. I saw a nice big grill but the chicken was scooped out of a premade bin - I was so bummed when I saw this happen. They're set up like Panda Express but Panda's food is hot! I really wanted to like this place bc it's close to work, but I won't be returning. I love Great Greek down the road but I'm tired of it, I thought I'd try a new place. I'd just rather go to Great Greek bc their food is always hot and on point, for close to the same price! read more

One of the most regular places we eat from in A2. Enjoy their freshly-fried falafels, gyro sandwich, and garlic sauce most. An extra plus is that the Lebanese gentleman who orchestrates it all is super kind- will continue supporting and eating here! read more

Hands down the best chicken shawarma sandwich I've had. So much flavor in every bite. We also had the French fries with the best seasoning on them I've ever had and it was the perfect match to the chicken shawarma sandwich. We also tried the rice with some special sauce on the side. The rice was nothing special but with a sandwich and fries more than made up for it. read more

Shawarma shop in a gas station? Count me in. Read that is was the best chicken shawarma in town so had to try. Was it the best I've ever had? No but it was pretty darn good. It is NOT for the garlic averse. The fries were absolutely delicious. Good solid place. Would go back to try other menu items. read more

I love it. I've never seen an establishment with ALL 5-star reviews. Well earned! If you think that great middle Eastern food doesn't come from a restaurant attached to a gas station.... Let go of that notion right now. Here are my faves... Greek salad, fattoush , lentil soup, hummus, baba ghanoush, tabbouleh, shawarma, kafka, garlic(!), baklava. Next time... grape leaves, falafel... They seem to be chronically under-staffed, like so many places these days. Be patient and kind. Your meal will be worth it. read more

This is connected to the Shell gas station so decided to get some food after filling up gas. Quite a few folks were in line so I figured it was at least decent and I haven't had Lebanese food in a long time. I ordered a falafel deluxe which had falafel that was freshly fried with tabuleh and hummus. The tabuleh had crisp fresh veggies that was so refreshing on a hot day. There was a smear of hummus that kept everything stuck together but not excessive and overflowing. The falafel was warm with golden crust and seasoned well - not too salty! Seriously some of the best falafel I've ever had - will make sure I stop by when I'm in town! Also, the men working obviously take their work seriously - the sandwich was made and wrapped with the utmost care and everyone had a mask on! read more

Best shawarma sandwich around. The regular one. The chicken is always good, just the right amount of veggies, and great sauce. Don't let the gas station lot location fool you. This place is worth a visit. read more

Shawarma Shop has taken the spot over from the Pita Pan chain (though the old sign needs to come down).  I read about the new place in the Ann Arbor Observer and made a mental note that I needed to check it out. I am so glad we made it over here! Though I was craving fried kibbe footballs (and subsequently finding out that they sadly do not have them on the menu here), I chose the beautiful and delicious beef kafta (as in "you hafta eat this") sandwich. It was loaded with red onions, parsley, yogurt sauce, pickles and tomatoes. The meat was homemade with not too much seasoning. It really was just right. It wasn't soggy and messy and leaking all over me in my car seat, which is a rare treat around here. The hummus was rich with sesame tahini flavor, a bit more than you get from grocery store hummus but I like it. It was nutty tasting and smooth...the kind of smooth you only get from popping those skins off the chi chi beans (chickpeas but my Lebanese Grandpa called them chi chi beans and we always call things what he did around here!) before blending them in the food processor. It came with 4 or 5 entire loaves of the big, chewy syrian bread (not pita! Grandpa forbid us to call it that), from one of many excellent bakeries in Dearborn, I am sure. It is topped with a tidy pool of olive oil and a dash of sumac to make it pretty. The vegetarian stuffed grape leaves are good but they are very soft. You probably should use a fork for these guys. They were full of rice and various finely chopped vegetables and were mildly seasoned. I just wish they had more bite like they do when the leaves are fresh, not jarred. But that's just me. I'll eat them like this, too, of course. They are quite filling on their own, despite being considered an appetizer. The rice pilaf was buttery and nice, with slivered almonds and vermicelli. This is pure Lebanese comfort food right here. It comes with a little container of a tomato-based sauce but it's good on its own. All in all, I highly recommend this place over similar shops in the area. The prices are fair and the service is fast. Gonna come back and try everything in its turn...not the baba, though. I never liked it! I just wish there was kibbe.....or koosa..... read more

They are in the same place as Pita Pan and are equally good. Tried Chicken shawarma and Tabuleh - everything was fresh and felt like made to order. Recommended! read more

Just walked in, did not order ahead. I was able to place my order right away and took advantage of the stools while my food was prepared fresh. Got the chicken shawarma combo which was fantastic. Chicken was tender and tasty, paired with crunchy pickles and garlic sauce on a soft stretchy pita. I got the salad with the combo which was also super fresh and enough for at least two. Not a dressing guy, but that too was legit. This is the place if you want amazing shawarma at a fair price!! read more

Great food. A little slow as the food is prepared fresh by one cook. Shawarma, chicken tawook, hummus, lentil soup all delicious.

The food was delicious and the service top-notch! Very generous portions, meats were all cooked perfectly - juicy and not dry. The salad dressing was the best I've had anywhere.

Can't wait for my next visit to AA so I can stop by this place again. read more

They have good chicken shawarma sandwiches. I stopped going here because the past 5 times I called in my order and they said 15 minutes. I showed up 20 minutes later, and I still had to wait 10-15 minutes. I think they are understaffed and don't know how to prioritize call-in orders. read more

Upping my review to five stars. I'm not proud to admit it, but I went back to Shawarma Shop the very next day. The chicken shawarma was sooooo good! A tad greasy but that garlic sauce *chef's kiss*!
