    Duzan's shawarma is the best bite on Steinway Street. It's juicy dark meat spiced with cumin & coriander stuffed into the poofiest homemade pita, topped with vegetables and pickles with tahini sauce. Read more

    This place is legit, the Sharma sandwich was extremely good, I also ordered the hummus with hot chickpeas on it, also very good and the hot pita they bring with it really made it great.

    If it's your first visit and you aren't sure which veggies you want added to your pita, just say so! They will call your name when your food is almost ready and let you say yes or no to each option.

    The food portions are ginormous! They hook you up with so much meat! Get the chicken shawarma bowl with rice & salad. Bowls come with fresh pita on the side (you can taste that it’s fresh!)

    Chicken shawarma with lemon tahini or pickled ginger curry. Hummus Jerusalem topped with fava beans and spicy pepper sauce or Hummus Abu Gosh topped with roasted garlic and pine nuts!

    Great falafel. Busy and usually in some state of disaster but the food is legit. Falafel in a pita with everything is a good start. Ask for some hot sauce.

    Awesome spot! The chicken shawarma was delicious and the pita nice and fluffy. The schnitzel was great as well. They even have tahini, amba, arisa, sumac...

    For hot sauce lovers, get their harissa! It def has a kick to it. If you get their garlic sauce, you def won’t miss the garlic!

    Excellent shawarma, foul, and other Middle Eastern dips and salads. Load up on the puffy pita baked in-house.

    Good shawarma platters on Steinway and if you are in the area - a solid delivery option from seamless. They've been pretty reliable and quick.

    I'm obsessed with the falafel, but you really can't go wrong here. And the staff is the friendliest in NYC!

    Solid Baba Ganoush, and for the price of their pitas/sandwiches, you can't go wrong in terms of quality.

    Chicken shawarma in a pita or wrap is amazing. Be sure to order them with white sauce.

    Just an FYI, if you order the arayes, expect to wait for about 20 minutes.
