The food was really great and they were so affectionate to accommodate our needs even though we were a bit off in the timings and arrived at 11: 50 PM.

First time trying this place and I love it. It took a little bit to get out food but they were busy. It was nonstop with people coming and going. Testiment to how good this place is. I had the chicken shawarma and it was delicious. The Greek fries were wonderful as well. We got our daughter chicken tenders and I tried one. Not sure what brand they use but it was amazing. We sat outside enjoying the beautiful weather. Only thing I would change would he more drink options.
The place was nice and clean. The lady that took our order was very nice.

Pretty good place. Since this place isn't new I would say the inside could definitely use a little more work. That said, there is nothing negative for me to add. Service is very friendly and attentive, the food is really good and very well priced. In a sea of terrible tex mex and cheap pizza, this is a wonderful hidden gem in the local food community.

The quality and quantity of food for that price is amazing! I got the aloo Tikka platter and I wanted to eat the whole thing but couldn't finish it as much as I wanted to.nicely spiced, great secret sauce and hummus mix, and I love that I can customize my toppings. Plus the staff were super nice. I would only say the place is small, so be prepared to either do take out or eat outside.

They were the best burgers I had a year ago and now their quality and taste both are down to 0.the secret sauce is diluted and no longer the same.they charge extra for each topping which makes 0 sense. They are basically selling u $15 burgers thats costco buns with a nanak tikki.

Amazing shawarma rolls and samosas, really economic option for middle eastern food, better than 'Halal Guys' without a doubt.

Platters are with more quantity. Veggie patty burgers, Gyros and Chicken shawarma are really great.

Food is not up to the mark. Feels like paying 1000 and eating for 10. Waste food. They will only serve you fries in name of shawarma and gyro.

The food has a base value and you add extras which cost money so the actual total for food is like $12 for a basic plate which is grains for the amount you pay compared to the mounds you recieve at Halal Guys.

The food is very lightly seasoned and it's not "actual" Shawarma. It's just chicken or beef over rice. They have a Shawarma rotary but I don't think it's being used because the chicken was being cooked Halal Guys style on a griddle and the Gyro was very very thinly sliced. I don't believe they sold actual beef because of cultural reasons which would become very apparent when you enter and just listen to the music.

The sauces are underwhelming as well.

In all if your looking for semi decent Shawarma or being lured in by the price then I wouldn't recommend this place.

If your a college student who just wants something different from burgers or pizza for some reason then sure it's worth a try.

I had gone to a supermarket the same day and tried their Shawarma. Baiz, it's also not exactly what I was looking for but it was proper cut Shawarma meat and they gave toum along with the other stuff. It is a much better deal, it just isn't open as late at this place.

Delicious delicious food! You will not be disappointed.

Had their beef, chicken shawarmas and their beef&lamb gyros on the spot. I wish I could’ve taken some to go and indulged in the morning because that’s how much they were good and left a lasting impression. Will definitely be coming back. Also their price point is the best!

It don't have paradise in the name for nothing. Everything about this place is spectacular. I feel like I was just shown inside the pearly gates.

This place is not only among the worst shawarma places i have ever tried, it is one of the worst places I have ever eaten at. The beef kebab seemed like microwaved old chunks of beef and was almost impossible to chew. Beef shawarma was slightly better in that it was edible! The service was very slow and the place did not look like one you would like to sit in and eat.

For the price. Pretty banger. It's like Halal guys but it's a way better bang for your buck imo. It's not CRAZY good quality but it's solid.

Shawarma Paradise is a great restaurant for dine in or takeaway’s. The food portions are large in size, quality is great and is budget friendly.

The owner is warmly welcoming and generously serves free ice-cream sandwiches.

In my opinion the restaurant can be organized in a much better way to accommodate more customers because it’s takes time to get your order due to the long wait.

A must visit!
