My Lebanese step-brother and I had been here before when they first opened a couple of years ago and were not impressed with the food and preparation as it relates to Authenticity. I heard there had been changes etc. from others and that I should...give it another try. I ordered a beef shawarma. What I was served was something more like a flavor-lite steak burrito of a sorts, with no shaved marinated meat carved from the slowly cooking rotisserie as is common if a Shawarma. Overcooked fully charred to bitter beef tip chunks scattered in the midst of what was anticipated to be much more like what I am used to, here in Lynchburg, or Virginia, Canada, and almost everywhere else I have been where a Real Shawarma" was on the menu. Two years ago a similar experience when we visited the manager/owner/family said that their "version" of overcooked meat and bland flavors was "American-Style". Maybe it still is. But a Shawarma by any definition, this was not. I did find it interesting that when the person came out to give me my take out container and cash he wore no mask, although I was forced to wear one by sign to enter.More
