This is the best chicken shawarma I’ve had outside of the Middle East and the best in the SF Bay Area! Their portions are generous, yet so delicious that you may not have any leftovers. I especially love their rice, which takes me back to my days in Lebanon.
Tasty Middle Eastern shawarma and falafel. Back Home Shawarma Wrap — cut into finger food portions, a nice touch. Beef and Lamb shawarma, decent. Chicken shawarma, a bit dry. Salad a touch too salty. Falafel, crispy, but not quite extra crispy. Overall, good; but not the best.
Order at counter Mediterranean restaurant with fresh food and good dairy free and vegetarian options. Menu isn’t labeled for allergens but good number of options.
A little late to leaving my review but went to Lotus a couple months ago and was impressed by their food. The chicken shawarma is tasty with well seasoned meat, a good amount of toom, and the right amount of pickles. The burger was cooked perfectly and the fries were crispy and seasoned. The side of falafel was also perfectly cooked and was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. All in all impressed and will be back the next time I’m in town.
I got the chicken kabob plate and it was delicious! I will say one of the pieces of chicken was raw but all the other ones were cooked to perfect. The flavors take me back home to my aunts house. The brown rice was IMO the star of the show. The hummus you can tell they make from scratch.
