“These bowls are actually insane get the chicken shawarma bowl. It also has a chipotle like line so you get to pick the different things. lastly they have fries out if nowhere and their deliciously crispy. TOTALLY check this place out!”
“A great spot for lunch! I didn’t realize it was like a Mediterranean subway until I walked in lol but they were quick and helpful at getting me the right sandwich! The cashier was super kind and helped sort out my confusion about checkout. The gyro wrap was very tasty and hit the spot, and the fries are great very crunchy and the right amount of salt! Yum! It gets crowded so make sure you set aside enough time to go on your lunch break 😄”
“Fast casual spot that takes it to the next level. The chicken is savory and the falafel is phenomenal. Come hungry because the portions are generous. Don't for get to add fries or soup if you want to, and never skimp on this sauce! The team at this location are great!!!!!!”
“got their Gyro at lolapalooza and it was the worst gyro I've ever had, soggy pita, limp spoiling cucumbers, poor seasoning choice, and a miniscule amount of watery bland tzatziki, why are you pre- making them, a gyros takes like 10 seconds to make, you're a disgrace to all things food”
“Fast service and alwyas fresh! I come here weekly at the least! Highly recommend 👌”
“Fast, fresh, flavorful and friendly. Easy to miss and hard to forget. I go AT LEAST twice per week.”
“BenjYehuda is a friendly Middle Eastern spot that serves up tasty, made-to-order meals with fresh ingredients. The falafel and shawarma are flavorful and filling, and there are nice options for salads and sauces too. The staff always greeted me with a smile and took time to answer questions about the food, which felt genuine and welcoming. Portion sizes are generous and the price is very reasonable. If you want a good, quick meal that does not skimp on flavor, this place is a solid pick.”
“My 1st time here. The combo salad was fresh and delicious. The staff was accomodating - and friendly. The cost was competitive. I will certainly visit again when I am in the area.”
“Eat the rainbow 🌈 it's absolutely easy to do here where there is a good variety of veggies and salads to add to your shawarma or falafel.”
