SHAWARMIN GRILL 2113 Old Hudson Road, Saint Paul, MN 55119

"Food is fantastic: it is filling, flavorful, and doesn’t feel overly oily or make your stomach upset after (make sure to eat fresh!). The service was amazing, the hosts are very welcoming and kind. This was my first time coming to this place and I honestly did not expect it to be this great. Coming from Texas where the food scene is typically good, this place beats most of my shawarma experiences I’ve had in the US! Definitely worth it."

"Loved this place! Walked in and felt instantly welcomed & calm. The food was amazing, took a couple minutes for it to come to us but you could tell it was made with love and that was 100% worth the wait. Great food proportions and yummy food! The owner gave us some free food as well ☺️"

"First time I have been there. The staff were incredibly wonderful and nice. Ordered chicken shawarma and philly cheese steak. The philly... The roll was soft and full of deliciousness. The meat just melted in my mouth, it was that tender. The shawarma.... Never had one before, definitely was excited to try it. One bite and oh my goodness. And the handmade garlic sauce took it to the next level. The whole time I was eating, my only thought was YUM!!!! Definitely a must try restaurant."

"If you want full flavors of Mediterranean food, this place has it. The Crew was super friendly and helpful with making our choice easy. We ordered the rice plates and you can feed 2 people with the giant portion. This place should be more busy and food came out rather quickly. My wife who normally doesn't like lamb was actually surprised and finished all the lamb on the plate. She highly recommends this place now. Let's just say we will definitely be visiting again and trying everything on the menu."

"I have been here twice. Restaurant atmosphere is nice place is very clean. The first time I had a build your own bowl with falafel. Tons of food for a great price. My wait was a bit longer than I expected, and I understood it was more than likely due to them being a newer restaurant. The second time I went I had the falafel sandwich, Tabbouleh salad and the lentil soup. Again tons of food at a great price. The falafel sandwich and tabbouleh salad were amazing. The fries were good also. I love lentils, I love lentils soups. On the day I went (this was early April 2021) the soup had a odd perfume after taste. Not sure what spice would cause that. Pro: you get a big bang for your buck which is hard to find post pandemic. Most restaurants are cutting back on proportions and quality while raising prices to keep afloat. Shawarmin’s is doing the opposite. Con: Try to give yourself a cushion of time during peak hours. Like my review if you find it helpful Thanks :)"
