Al SHAMI SHAWARMA

Excellent authentic Shawarma place. The taste was soooo good and just like home. The fries were delicious. There is inside dine in area which is fine. The service was fast. The garlic sauce was very tasteful. People were nice. Prices are great and average. Parking could be an issue sometimes. I would definitely recommend it!

The downstairs sitting area was way too cold they had the AC too strong but they put a lot of effort into a nice sitting area, love the fountain and greenery wood look. The BEST shawarma in NJ hands down but they really gotta work on people skills. We asked for plates as a family of 5 and had to beg one by one they weren't even making eye contact or listening

Here’s an updated version with your details included: ⸻ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 I always buy my food from here, and they never disappoint! Their shawarma is always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. Today was another great experience, the wrap was toasted just right, and the fries were hot and crispy. I also want to give a special shoutout to Dua, the hijabi girl who helped me. She is always so kind, welcoming, and provides amazing customer service every time I visit. It’s one of the reasons I keep coming back. Highly recommend this place!

I had a great experience at Al Shami Shawarma in Paterson! The food offers an authentic taste of Middle Eastern cuisine. I tried the chicken shawarma, and it was absolutely mouthwatering—fresh, flavorful, and worth the price. They have a variety of shawarma options and also offer catering. If you choose to dine in, you’re in for a treat! To get to the dining area, you walk through a tunnel-like path that feels like a mini cave, leading into a cozy wooden hut. The space is beautifully designed and feels like you’re sitting near a peaceful waterfall—very unique and relaxing. The staff is friendly, and the service is quick. The only minor downside is parking—it can be tough to find a spot during busy hours since it’s located on Main Street. But the food is definitely worth it. I’ll be back to try more of their menu!

So delicious but order ahead if you don’t want to wait because it gets very busy. Try to be patient with the staff as they are doing their best.

I had a great experience here! The food was absolutely delicious and clearly made with care. I also loved their new to-go boxes — they’re sturdy, well-packaged, and perfect for leftovers. On top of that, the customer service was amazing; the staff was friendly, attentive, and made me feel truly welcomed. I’ll definitely be back!
