The chicken sandwich is so good! Perfect amount of chicken and toppings. The fries are always nice and fresh. The gentleman taking order was kind. Place is clean! Will return to try other menu items.

Came on Father's Day and after church service. Heard about this place from a friend and per her advice I ordered the #PotatoBolani and it didn't disappoint! I ordered the #LambKabobPlate and I thought it was good with the lamb being tender and moist. I also loved the dressing on the salad. Heard good reviews for those who tried the #Sambosas but my friends who ordered the #ChickenShawarmaSalad and #ChickenShawarmaSandwichCombo thought it was dry and altogether not to their liking. I'm giving four stars because I would come back for the #PotatoBolani and I would likely order something new to try. The restaurant has table seating for 4 people and we were 7 so we had to split up. You have to go to the front counter to order and the line was between tables. I don't suggest for groups larger than 4 people if you plan to dine indoors. Service was minimal but you can see they were busy and trying to get to customer's orders. By the way, they told me the Potato Bolani was a 30 minute wait, I was okay with it and it was actually no more than 15 minutes.

It was pretty good asked for a kabob with spice and they did not understand but it was very good.

Excellent, consistent high quality kebabs. Only downside is the 15min wait each time. I guess that's how long they take to properly cook...

This is the BEST Mediterranean Restaurant I have been to in San Diego. I first had the Chicken Schwarma sandwich, and Humus & Pita. The Sandwich was excellent. The second time I went I ordered "another" chicken Schwarma, and I tried their Beer/Chicken Combo. WOW! amazing. I also had the walnut desert and the Baklavah. I will be back soon - my office is down the street:) Wanna is also great, very friendly service.

Great place to watch Mediterranean Cuisine around our neighborhood (Miramar and Poway). We always enjoy their Kofta Kobideh Kabob. But this time we decided to try something else and we were not disappointed. Their Chicken Shawarma Salad with Balsamic Dressing was delicious: similarly, their Chicken Tikka Korma was well made; curry not too strong and we could still taste the chicken. They only suggestion we have is for the to add more chicken and reduce the serving of the rice. Well done and highly recommend this place.

This place deserves everything about their 5 star review. The food is amazing. We love how tender their meat is. The service is fast and easy. You order at the counter and find an open seat. The inside is very plain, but clean. Our favorite afghan kabob place. Will be coming back again and again.

Came here to check out one of the Yelp's top 100 and found a new favorite in the area. Amazing Mediterranean food with generous portions. The restaurant is family-owned and the service is always very nice. I highly recommend the potato bolani; they give you a ton to eat and it's all packed with flavor. If you're looking for protein, the chicken tikka korma was a great dish that resembles a chicken curry. Definitely will be back to try more.
