“ Delicious fare for a breezy evening downtown. Have a seat at a nearby table in the park. Saw at least one negative review from someone who probably didn't know what shawarma is, so look online and see if you'd like it. Shaved, fresh chicken, light crunchy pita, and I had mine over hummus. ”
“ Best food I've had in Pittsburgh hands down. Low costs, great hospitality and some nice views ”

“ First of all, Omar’s serve best Shawerma in Pittsburgh, I’ve tried many places here but definitely this place is the best. I love chicken Arabi Shawerma (serverd with pickles, garlic sauce, fries and veggies), meat is also a perfect choice if you like meat . Note: garlic sauce is the best I’ve ever had. Highly recommended Still the best in town ”
“ Tried ordering a beef wrap and fries online to see what the online order experience was like. When I arrived, the employees said they only had chicken, and they quickly prepared my order. Nice, warm temperature and amazing taste!!! The wrap is not very wide, but it is quite long and a good amount of food. Very impressed with the amount of meat in the wrap; the inside was maybe 90% meat or more. The pickled cucumbers and sauce combined with the well-seasoned chicken was great. The fries were good and paired well with the wrap. I don't even mind that they did not have beef when I visited; I wouldn't be surprised if they ran out before I arrived! ”

The crispy chicken sandwich, adorned with their signature garlic sauce, has been described as an elixir of flavor by patrons.
