    a lot of my friends always talking about semsema and Seeing many people at the front door waiting for their orders encouraged me to order from them, unfortunately, I didn't like it! The quality of the food is normal The taste is sooo week The taste is supposed to be as long as the shop's name is the length of his life. i wouldn't recommend it at all. Instead, head to Abou Heidar in Korba for a much better taste.

    Offers nice shawerma and grill sandwiches,very budget prices. The place is take away only or u eat on the go street food style. Salad and pickles are extras. May be difficult to find parking.

    The beef shawarma wasn't bad but I've had better as this was somehow dry. The bread was delicious though. Also, I don't understand why I have to pay extra for not wanting salad on it! Never faced this in any restaurant before! The hype around it is in vain it seems.

    The chicken shawerma is alright at best. The meat shawerma is very chewy, bland, and lacks any other ingredients. I guess you could kinda chalk it up to "street food" quality, but the prices definitely is not reflecting that. Way too expensive for its taste.

    If you are in a hurry and you are looking for decent meal, this is the place to go. Beef shawrma is my favor. Caesar is relatively small so order many.

    The best Egyptian shawarma in Cairo. They also try their fries and Chicken Shish sandwich. They use bread from latif wasili which is also great and really compliments the taste. The service is super fast and organized, and the car service is convenient in this street. I honestly just hate the street vibes in this place with all the street vendors and beggars.

    I am customer since 20 years, food quality is nice. I do not like the part of bringing Shawarma by myself to the counter for packaging. It should be done by staff internally.

    Beef shawerma was good, but (Egyptian chicken) not as much. Burgers were not as good as expected. Liked the sausage. Overall, it is a good place for a quick bite in a busy area (Sheikh Zayed).

    Honestly, not what I was expecting after all the recommendations about this restaurant. Not bad but there are better places to eat from.

  • 2/5 Mostafa O. 2 months ago on Google • 20 reviews New
    Waste of money If you'd describe it. Totally poor quality of shawarma, try them if you wanna hate the shawarma concept.

  • 5/5 Ahmed R. 1 year ago on Google
    Best place ever for a fastfood sandwich, Must test Shawerma beef and chicken Must test Shish Tawook

  • 5/5 Abd El Hamed E. 1 year ago on Google
    The Best Egyptian Meat Shawerma in the town. Their Shesh Tawook is magnificent and tender. Sauces and fries are great though.

  • 5/5 Devin G. 1 year ago on Google
    We love eating here so much that this was our very first meal after returning to Egypt. Even 2 years couldn't erase the memories of such delicious food! It's definitely a great place with a fun atmosphere!!

  • 3/5 دكتور مصطفى الأبيض Dr. Mostafa A. 1 year ago on Google
    Good quality and fast service while prices are in range of similarities with bigger portions.

  • 2/5 Sara A. 1 year ago on Google
    The quality of food has decreased a lot in light of the high prices, it was better in the past years, and I have a comment that the accountant has little taste

  • 5/5 Mostafa E. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to get some delicious authentic Egyptian food, they don't have a place to eat, you buy and go.

  • 5/5 Surya P. 2 years ago on Google
    The one and only one place if you are looking for the best shawarma in entire Egypt! Please do not miss this place. It is a highly recommended place!

  • 5/5 Omer S. 2 years ago on Google
    Fast food restaurant located in AL Dokki area.. They have a yummy Egyptian shawarma meat and chicken. The place only offers takeaway service but they are very fast and clean also, pricewise they are the best among a lot of other shawarma places. I will definitely go there again and again

  • 5/5 Khadija 2 years ago on Google
