If you’re looking for good, tasty, flavorful, and a variety of options for Mediterranean food look no more Amba is it! This was my first time going and let me tell you it didn’t disappoint. I got a bowl ( Tawook chicken), and a wrap for my husband(Steak shawarma) and it was delish! The Spicy Feta, the Baba Ghannouj sauces , the array of fresh veggies, and please don’t forget the basmati rice. Also, they put the wrap on the grill… Ooweee that was it for meee, it took it up a level for real. So tasty and filling. You get a nice portion with the bowl and the wrap! I’m definitely going to be frequent customer. Anytime my super picky 10 year old enjoyed we are for sure at the right place. Oh, and don’t forget to wash it all down with the Ginger Mint Lemonade so refreshing. 10 out of 10 I Do Recommend!! ~ Danielle W

Questions & Answers

Are you Zabiha Halal Fully?
All I know one of the best lunches I've had in a long time
Is this a halal zabiha restaurant.
Currently our Chicken Shawarma, Tawook Chicken and Gyro are halal meat. The steak shawarma is not. Our steak shawarma is cooked on its own flat grill. Starting next week, our vendor will deliver all the halal meat.
