I also like how they press the shawarma sandwiches in a sort of panini-type press to heat them up before serving. The plate dinners are good, too. Surprisingly, they also serve samosas (!?) for about $1 each, which make satisfying snacks in a pinch but they are not exactly authentic: it almost seems like they use Chinese wonton wrappers. Interesting idea for a shawarma joint but not entirely successful.
