East West Market & Grill

Quite possibly the most flavorful chicken shawarma I've ever had. The sauce was creamy and the meat was perfectly grilled and tender. The size was great for the price paid! Very friendly and respectable staff and very easy to order over the phone. Come support this wonderful small business!

In town for business so thought I'd check it out and ordered dinner to go. I love Mediterranean food and supporting non-chain local businesses. However, when I entered everything looked sort of in disarray. Trash and food waste sitting out on a table in the restaurant portion of the market. Lots of empty coolers. I saw one of the men cooking using his bare hands to touch the meat (thru an open door behind the meat counter). Ugh. I enjoy trying new places but maybe I should not have tried placing an order by myself. All four men working in the market went into the kitchen after I placed my order. The experience made me uncomfortable.

Got the chicken kabobs on DoorDash on DoorDash. Please add option on doordash to purchase extra tzatziki!

We happened upon this place purely bc we were in the area and hungry. It's a tad confusing since it's not clear where to park or whether they're even open. Pulling up, there's a fence ahead so dunno if that's parking or not. The front entrance appears dark as if they're closed. The door is off to the left of the building. A neon "Open" sign would reduce confusion and help with business. The food is amazing. Authentic. Well-seasoned. Not overcooked. The plates were well-portioned with heaping protein of your choice over seasoned rice. It comes with a salad, hummus and tzatziki sauce, and pita.Definitely a great find.

The food we got was bland. I don't know how they managed to make so many dishes that have so little flavor. Nothing really tasted good. The kitchen was a concern also when the guy was working with a large open container of meat sitting right on the floor. The place looked unclean. Won't be back

Food is great. Really love everything I have ever gotten here. Really good flavors. But I gotta take a star because of this nonsense. Ordered a falafel sandwich and they substituted it for a chicken plate that costs more lol.

Very good food. I tried this place while I was on my break. The food was ready quickly and it was very good.

The market offers lots of good stuff. I say good stuff because when you read the nutrition facts, a lot of the sodium and sugar contents are low. You can tell there aren't a ton of preservatives in the things they sell. (We bought apricot jam and it smelled exactly like apricots and not fake!)The grill is amazing. Today, my partner and I tried a combo plate with basmati rice, chicken kabob, spiced ground beef (seekh) kabob, salad and the classic tzatziki sauce. We ordered a lamb gyro and it came with fries. (I love that they didn't drop a whole salt shaker on the fries) We also tried an order of samosas! Everything was so good. This is probably one of the best tasting meals I've had in Lodi.Compliments to the chef and the owners of this establishment. Thank you for sharing your culture and delicious eats with us! We are incredibly lucky!

Love their lamb gyro. Have come here a few times and it's always consistent and tastes great. I need to try a shawarma next. The samosa was fantastic.

Heard good things about this place but it really needs to be cleaned. Expired items on the shelves. If they can clean up the place a bit, and stock up the empty shelves... It'll make a difference. So much potential!
