Syrian Shawarma

We tried this place as we were super hungry and looking for halal food so came across this on Google search. To be honest it wasn't the best. It was very very salty. Their garlic sauce had so much salt in it. Staff was mean and they wouldn't do anything about salty food. They opened at 12 and we were there at 1230 and they told us oh we are sold out of rice. I mean someone they just opened and how can they be sold out on rice. What a lame excuse. It's pricey and quantity wasn't good either. We paid almost 50 bucks for 3 of us (2 adult one child). Their bread is something we couldn't eat. They just put some kind of ketchup type of sauce in. The meat quantity is very less. Honestly we bought three different type of meal and all tasted the same plus so much salt. We couldn't finish it. Not going there again

We came here after doing Busch gardens for the day. We love middle Easter food so this place looked amazing plus the reviews gave it a 4.9. When we walked in, it was busy. We ordered a kibbeh, tabbouleh, and chicken and beef loose shawarma. It took a while to get our food. We finally got our food. The kibbeh, was good. Not the best, as it was crunchy and thick but I feel the meat could have been a little more seasoned. The shawarma also was very bland. It was good not dry but they missed the mark with seasoning again. The garlic sauce was good, but light on garlic and whipped. The fries were the most seasoned thing in our food. Overall, solid 4. I doubt I'd be back.

One of the best shawarmas in Tampa that I've tried. I tried lots of spots in the temple terrace area and this one is by far the best. Quick service even though they're busy and nice vibes. Feels like home! Would highly recommend the beef of chicken shawarma!

Overall good and full of flavor. One of the best beef shawarmas I've ever had. The kibbeh was full of flavor too. There's also a kibbeh shawarma option which I've never seen before. My only issue is with the portions of an extra jumbo beef shawarma ($15) didn't seem worth the price. It doesn't seem that much more filling than a regular at almost half the price. Kibbeh was $3 each. I didn't know when I ordered that it was only one piece but overall good. I'd definitely recommend this place.

I found this place on Instagram and have been wanting to try it, glad I did! Staff was friendly, food came out fast, and the tables were all clean. The kibbeh was perfectly seasoned and cooked; the beef shawarma had minimal toppings which I surprisingly enjoyed. Will come back for more!

It is amazing how great the shawarma tastes at Syrian Shawarma. Each country in the Middle East makes their shawarma a little differently. I particularly love the shawarma from Israel & from Lebanon. But now I have to say Syria is in a 3-way tie with those others. I ordered a mixed combo of chicken & beef. The chicken was my favorite of the 2. The meat was all white, & the spice mixture used on it was extraordinarily delicious. In addition to the meats, the bed of yellow rice it came on was moist & tasty. And to bring all the flavors together was a garlic sauce that worked perfectly. The workers were pleasant & the food was fantastic.

Super yummy no matter what you get places always busy food is fresh. Great customer service and takeout is always available.

Delicious shawarma, beef and chicken! The best in town! Very fresh and tasty. and the real deal! Definitely I will be back. Their kibbeh stuffed with shawarma, it is worth trying!, you won't be disappointed. أطيب شاورما بتامبا

Delicious shawarma! A little smaller than other places but the quality was superb. The bread was fresh and there was a generous portion of meat inside along with the pickled veggies. Picked up an order to go and it was ready quickly. The inside was clean and had a fair amount of seating with people at most of the tables. I would try the spicy garlic sauce next time and maybe a platter. Great food for a decent price.

Food is decent, but small servings and expensive. Worst part is the pace -- even much tastier, better-value food would not worth the wait. For an order of just one dish it took over 30 minutes to be prepared. The restaurant was slow -- just a few other tables similarly waiting forever for their food. The worst part is that you can see the people in the kitchen -- two standing at the front yawning and chatting without a care for the customers, and the ones in the back moving like sloths. It's clearly a workplace culture issue, and unfortunately makes this place one I likely won't come to again. Do not recommend -- you can have a much nicer meal if you want to spend forever waiting for the food to be made.
