Shawarma Palace

Tried shawarma for the first time, and was curious because I always hear people talk about it. I opted for the chicken shawarma plate because although the sandwich sounded good, I wasn't in the mood for it. The plate I had came with chicken shawarma, salad, rice, hummus and pita bread. The portion size was very large and you could easily have leftovers. I thought the dish was just OK though. I would have preferred some more seasoning and spice in the chicken. I did ask them if they had any spice and the lady gave me a small cup of a pickled pepper mix to add to my plate which I greatly appreciated because it added the flavor I was looking for. I did think the lady at the front was very nice. My friend had a lamb shawarma plate and I tried some of the lamb. That tasted really good, I must say. It's a solid three stars for me!

Amazing, every time I come here. Clean, friendly quick and delicious. They know what they're doing! Thanks for sharing your gift with us.

This is our first visit to the Shawarma Palace. Wow. It's immaculately clean, the owner and staff are amazing and friendly! Our food was to die for. I got the Falafel Plate (vegetarian) and it was a lot of food. My husband got the Chicken Shawarma Plate and although it was massive too, he had to help me finish mine! Their beverage selection is in cold cases, but there is no lack of choices. I highly recommend this place! It's a nice spot on the courtyard square to stop, cool down and take in the sights.

There's a reason this is the TOP rated restaurant in the area (according to Yelp and Google). I was not disappointed.I love Mediterranean food and I was especially pleased when the owner gave me a slice of the beef shawarma to try (even before I ordered). My eyes lit up and I was so impressed. I don't think I've ever tasted anything so flavorful and meaty and juicy like this. I don't know what the poor reviews are talking about when they said they "just expected more" because this was by far the best one I've tried. Please tell me where you've had better shawarma because I maybe ought to try those.I love it when the people who are there to greet you and serve you work like they actually care about their work. You don't really see this in the US much so I was very happy to have had this experience in a place i didn't expect much from (because it's so unfamiliar to me). If you're ever in Worcester, this is the place to eat!

Expected More, but Wonderful PeopleI was here for lunch on a Saturday. The restaurant was not busy (I was the only customer). The owner was working behind the counter preparing chicken for the shawarma. He stopped what he was doing, cleaned up, greeted me and carefully prepared the food I ordered. This kind of personal attention to the food doesn't exist at many places and shows the amount the owner cares about his restaurant. I've tried both the chicken and beef shawarma and both were pretty good. The food is all made in-house, and is all fresh. Just expected more. Thanks

Awesome! This was the first time I've visited and was pleasantly surprised with how enjoyable my experience was. We got two chicken shawarma sandwiches and some hummus and pita to go and it was so tasty. Definitely hoping to come by again

Best Lebanese food I have ever had. Charlie the owner, is one of the nicest people I have ever met. Great food, great atmosphere. 10/10

I am so disappointed with our meal here. We had the chicken Shawarma sandwich and falafel appetizer. Everything was cold. It was I inedible. The falafel was tasteless and cold. The shawarma had a white sauce on it instead of tahini like the menu listed.A few notes. We ate there Saturday mid afternoon so it was not busy. There were 2 girls working there and there was only one other customer so they were not busy.

Great extremely fresh food with fresh very friendly service. Wife is still raving about the baklava.

We had a graduation party today with over a dozen people. The Shawarmas were a HUGE hit!! I asked to have them cut in half, but didn't expect to have each half individually and carefully wrapped. The sides were also really well loved. My favorite are the grape leaves.The beef shawarma was so tender and made with good quality sliced steak, not ground. The service was above and beyond good. I can't wait to return!
