More of a quick grab-and-go place, which I was looking for. There are a few tables, but is not a nice dine-in restaurant. You can choose your sides (similar to a Subway setup) so you can modify. I think it was the owner who cared for me; very friendly and generous. Pretty generous portions and everything was delicious- I ate it all in one sitting. I had the shawarma plate with mixed meats (chicken and beef) and chose the babaganoush - see pic. Would recommend!

I found this place while walking alongside Long Beach retro row. I got 3 meals - 2 Chicken Shawarma salad bowls and one chicken Shawarma wrap. WOW - it was so delicious. The quality of meat was excellent, the sauces were incredible, and all 3 of us talked abut this meal the rest of the day. I'm from Israel so I know good Shawarma :) Excellent!

We live in the neighborhood and decided to give Naya a try. We were pleasantly surprised! Miguel waited on us. I have to say his approach and customer service was outstanding. This young man was so friendly and helpful. He had such a great vibe! Our food was delish! So fresh and tasty. We will certainly go back again! Props to Miguel! Thanks!

I ordered a falafel wrap. It was very filling and I enjoyed the sauces (tahini and hummus). The ingredients were fresh and tasty. My boyfriend and his daughter both got beef rice bowls and it was a lot of food. They both saved some and took it home. The beef was delicious, tender and flavorful. We hope to come back to try the chicken. They had ran out when we went since it was on a fourth Friday and we went 45 minutes before they closed.

The beef shawarma that they have here is not even close to the shawarma that i have known. The beef is pre cooked which should be prep in the vertical skewer. Vegetables are fresh, wherein the tomatoes should be roasted along with the beef and parsley should be put instead of lettuce. The wrap is tortilla instead of kuboos. The only similar thing between the authentic shawarma and their shawarma is the tahini sauce. I'm not saying that the shawarma i had is bad, it just doesn't meet my expectation.

ALWAYS yummy rice plates and salads here. Def crave their salads because of the dressing. And the service is consistently friendly (which I extra appreciate). Thank you!

We tried the chicken shawarma from here and it was amazing. Very friendly staff. Thank you.
I hate to post bad reviews and Super sad to say quality at this restaurant has gone way down since it opened. Ordered the same thing as always chicken wrap; it would be a better if it was actually shawarma and not some grilled chicken which would be ok if it was good. This chicken wrap was INEDIBLE. I had to pick out the chicken and eat basically TORTILLA bread, sauce, tomato, lettuce and fries. Fries are an amazing invention but even they could not save this wanna be wrap. Here's a couple of tips use real shawarma, use actual pita bread, put some attention and thought into the process and train all your employees well. I'm annoyed that I spent almost $70 for this bad quality, drive-through food. I don't understand how they're still open. Money down the drain.

If you're HUNGRY for some healthy and affordable eating, give this place a go like right now right now. I ordered #7, which a chicken shawarma place that includes a 3 decent sides plus pita bread on the side. Although, I would like more pita bread or rice to go with the meal ( It's that Asian side combined with the love for carbs). I still think this meal was deliciously good. The chicken was nicely flavored and tender. The Baba Ghanoush (made from eggplant) was tasty and creamy. And there was a nice mixed of salad blended well with the fattoush sauce and pickled onions and jalapenos. I forgot my bottle of water to enjoy with this meal, but the gentleman here was nice enough to give me a bottle of water (maybe because I looked thirsty) free of charge. That was very uplifting. It made my experience here even better. Would I come back here again? Yes. Now it's your turn to give this place a go go. Enjoy!

Both the chicken and beef were dry and tasteless. Very disappointed. Portions were very generous and owner friendly. Wish the food had been as good.

Oh man this place was delicious. My wife and I stumbled across this place and ordered the chicken Schwarma. It's the best we've had in a long time. We'll definitely be returning for more!

We were out for a stroll and on the hunt for dinner. Thought we'd give this place a try. Huge fans of chicken shawarma and wanted to see where theirs landed. They are right next to Salud and have a few spots outside to sit. Though unless you want to watch people get off at the bus stop, I suggest take out. The gal working that evening took her time in making it. She seemed to really care about the process. Made me smile... not often I see this behind the counter. My spouse and I split it because it was huge! The gal had cut it anyway, so it was perfect. One of the better shawarmas I've had in awhile. Beats open sesame's... hands down. Flavors were spot on, fresh and WE WILL BE BACK!
