Shawarma Mediterranean Grill - Mediterranean restaurant in Centennial - 7527 S University Blvd, USA

The most delicious Mediterranean Halal shawarma you will have here .. well prepared, flavored and grilled to the best taste. Falafel was also tasty and fresh. Will come back diffennitly everytime I’m in Colorado 🤍

Walk-in, food prep is as-you-watch, at time of ordering, similar to Subway and Chipotle. Had a shawarma plate, with lamb and all the included fixings. Service was quick and friendly. Food was good enough to soothe a craving for Greek/Mediterranean food. Flavors were ok but different from what I was hoping to find. Was surprised to have an array of tip options displayed, when I was to pay. Chipotle and Subway don't do this and I find it a bit annoying, since I hadn't even tasted the food yet I'm being asked to pay a tip on top of the price of the $18 meal.

HIGHLY recommend! Best Mediterranean food in Colorado! Clean space, authentic food. Best falafel hands down. Very fresh meat. Amazing customer service. The garlic sauce is to die for!! We eat here often and the food and service is always consistent.

We are so happy to have found our new Mediterranean spot in Denver. The hummus is delicious and the portions are generous. The chicken kabob meat is tender and cooked to perfection (we usually get it a la carte). On top of the great food, the staff is very nice and we have enjoyed getting to know them during our regular visits. I highly recommend giving Shawarma Grill a visit!

We frequently order takeout from Shawarma, and it is our neighborhood comfort food. Fresh, hearty portions in big platters; flavors superb. We love the combo platter and veggie platter. The staff are very genuine and kind, and you can taste that their food is prepared with care and pride. Highly recommend stopping to eat here. It may not look like much tucked away on one end of a shopping plaza, but it is worth it!

Outstanding food and service. We had the Chicken Shawarma and Kebob plates. Both chicken dishes were loaded with flavor and authentic. Each of the sides followed suit, great flavors, authentic and high quality. Staff was terrific and the restaurant was clean. Pride of ownership was evident. Very happy we found this restaurant, will be back for years to come.

We were in the mood to try a new Middle East restaurant, which is probably not the best idea when you’re really in the mood for authentic Mediterranean food. After finding one that we haven’t visited yet, we traveled at least 30 minutes to get to it! Google maps took us directly there in a busy plaza. We were so hungry and though surprised it was a fast food eatery, we were eager to devour. We both ordered shawarma sandwiches and we asked for it to be made like they’d make it in Palestine or Lebanon etc. You can choose items to add to your sandwich, like tahini, pickles, fries, lettuce, etc. We also ordered baklawa and chocolate mousse. But we weren’t sure so we asked for one of the servers to add what he thinks goes in. He was nice enough to oblige; though, not sure if that was a good idea since perhaps that accounts for the unauthentic taste. No matter, it looked delicious so we sat at the first booth so we can start munching! The bread is the best part of the sandwich, we thought. It wasn’t to our liking! Not sure if it was the combination of what the line cook stuck in our sandwiches or the missing humus, or the meat just tasted like fajita meat, which we both don’t like much. Our meat was beef/lamb, but had that fajita flavor. From the many patrons who visited when we were there, perhaps the restaurant caters to western flavors. That’s not for us! There are plenty of Middle Eastern restaurants who serve authentic food, so we will keep patronizing those. We will definitely keep an eye out for new Middle East restaurants to try as well! But wait, what about the baklava and mouse? They were delicious! They give you a good-sized portion of that sweet triangle of goodness with the best tasting scoop of ice cream! The moose was not too sweet, but still tasty. The atmosphere? It is clean and the staff smile when you talk to them. I don’t remember any Arabic music blasting, which is always a disappointment for us. Arabic music just gives a restaurant that ability to transport patrons to the places where the food originated! Maybe that could make up for the missing flavors! You never know! Should you try it? Of course, it might appeal to your taste buds! Would we try it again? Well, perhaps if there weren’t any others and we wanted to travel that far to get to it!

Ate here on 1/27/24. Unfortunately this is the worst Mediterranean place I have ever been to. I am genuinely baffled as to how this place has more than four and a half stars. My partner and I are both vegan and we wanted to order the falafel wrap, which the website says is vegan... However one of the workers (rudely) told us the pita contains dairy when I double checking that it was vegan friendly. Then, strangely one of the workers whispered in their ear, "there is no dairy on the pita." We overheard this comment, which I don't think was intended. That being said, neither of them took ownership to provide us with the correct information. Anywho, we opt to not get the pitas (who has ever heard of a pita in their life that contains dairy?? Not me!) Anywho, we get our food a moment later and every single thing is salted 5-10 times more than it should have been. I am seriously not exaggerating. I almost always finish my food everywhere but I couldn't even muster up the strength to do that here. Saltiness aside, the base flavor of everything we ate was just sub par at best. The "spiced potatoes" were soggy with no flavor, unless salt is a flavor then sure. Wish I could at least say that the staff was friendly, but that wasn't the case. The best part of our meal was the water we had with it. Yikes.
