Really delicious food, great presentation too! Multiple types of wrap to choose from and tacos if you wanna goes cross cultural! The chicken was cooked perfect and the bakolov was soooo good!!

Visited this shawarma food truck today and I have to say it was an amazing experience! Honestly, my expectations were low because of a previous experience at a popular shawarma spot in La Mesa, but this place completely surprised me in the best way. It’s easily one of the best shawarmas in San Diego. The flavors were authentic and absolutely delicious, and the chicken was tender, fresh, and perfectly seasoned especially when dipped in their garlic sauce. I’ll definitely be coming back, and I’ll be recommending this place to my friends for sure.

Amazing burgers, shawarma, tabbouleh, hummus. Literally everything here is amazing. Don't miss out on this little gem in El Cajon.

I love this place! The customer service is great! The food is amazing and I love the variety of food. I also loved how they give you hummus with your plate, for the price this is a great deal! They have biscoff cake that is amazing!

I’ve always seen Mr.Shawarma Mediterranean Grill driving by, and until recently I came and ate here and I can honestly say the food is AMAZING! I’ve tried the shawarma fries, the buffalo shawarma, the hamburgers, the chicken and beef shawarma wrap and now it’s become my go to for Mediterranean food. It also has a kids menu, and the portions are great! I recommend coming to this place if you haven’t already! Oh and the baklava, DELICIOUS!!! Very juicy and full of flavor!

First time here and the food was delicious! Having been to the Middle East myself, I’d highly recommend! Plus they have tres leches cake and it was also incredible.

So good. I love Middle Eastern food. Mr Shawarma is the real deal. I got the land and beef wrap. It is huge delicious portion. My girlfriend got the build your own bowl with chicken and rice. It's just as good as my shawarma. Hind helped us out. She is really sweet.

I ate here on Friday and it was amazing. I had the chicken shawarma skewers with pita and a shrimp taco. The chicken was moist, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The presentation was beautiful too, which made it even better. The shrimp taco had a little kick and just the right amount of crunch. There is only one person working, so if you have even a little bit of common sense, you’ll understand it might take some time. But trust me, it’s worth it. I saw someone complaining that their group of nine had to wait over 30 minutes for food. You’re a group of nine talk to each other, scroll on your phone, enjoy the moment. It’s not that hard. Some of these entitled folks really act like they’ve never had to wait for anything in their life. Sometimes I wonder if some people writing reviews could even pass the 4th grade. This is real food made with care. Be patient. It’s delicious and absolutely worth the wait.

I was very impressed with the food. We ordered several items and all were so delicious. The chicken was moist not dried out like other places. The staff was friendly and nice. The dining area was just ok and we decided to do take out since the music was a bit loud.

I love shawarma sooo much. 😍😋🤤 I think they might be racist though. It seems they see a black woman and everyone puts there heads down and play not it for the register. Then I’m left waiting while they all sneak to the back. To pull straws??… it happens every time I come In. Maybe I’m paranoid. Maybe it’s a sexist thing. The one woman that I’ve seen working the front was very polite but still obviously uncomfortable…. I also suffered from food poisoning the next day 😭

⭐ Very Disappointing Experience I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. I came in after the gym and ordered a meal that was unfortunately poor in both quality and taste. The food was not good at all, especially compared to similar shawarma meals I regularly get from other places for around $15. Here, I was charged over $22 with no clear explanation for the extra cost, and I have the receipt. The service was also unprofessional. The staff member who served my food told me to go pick up condiments myself, which made the service feel careless and disrespectful. More concerning, the same person was cleaning the floor while serving food, had a cigarette on his head, and was handling customer orders at the same time. I have photos as proof, and this raised serious hygiene concerns. Because of the food quality, overcharging, and lack of basic cleanliness and professionalism, I will not be returning and cannot recommend this place to others. I would appreciate a full refund for this experience.

Visiting from Los Angeles was near by at a family event and I hadn’t eaten all day decided to give this place a try because reviews seemed decent and it was really close. I don’t understand how anyone would review this place positively and I rarely give bad reviews as I try to make excuses. This place is really bad. I was going to pick up food for myself and my brother but as soon as I walked in I could just tell this place will be rough. So instead of ordering I decided to try out the shawarma fries as it’s such a simple dish , they totally failed. The beef/lamb is old and dry, the chicken is dry and tasted like old rotisserie chicken. The restaurant itself is dirty and you can see they don’t keep up with it at all. The service is not bad but not good just. Not friendly not rude. Nothing good to say about the service and nothing really bad. Food wise, I don’t think anyone will enjoy this place. Just overall a bad experience and a bad place. I honestly think these positive reviews are either bought for and are fake, nothing else makes sense. Had to just eat the fries, which aren’t anything special, as the meat is inedible.

The food here was a total letdown. I got the Hangover Burger and the bun to meat ratio was just bad. Way too much bread. Menu said it came with criss cut fries, which is why I even ordered it, but I got regular fries instead. Burger had no flavor at all, and they don’t even have ranch. Our whole group of 12 was disappointed with what they got. It also took almost 30 minutes to get my food. Not coming back.
