Amazing sumptuous shawarma. The chicken is grilled and marinated in a curry, served with fries potatoes, amazing sauces and a fresh bread. All in all, easily one of the best shawarmas in Germany.

The prices are fair and the taste of the food is amazing. Really really vegan friendly, but not exclusive vegan. You can get your food rolled in a thin bread or you can get a full dish on a plate. Great option for a quick, healthy and tasty lunch.
