Food, 10. Costumer service, 10. I really liked it. I really enjoyed the shawarma and the chicken over rice. The shawarma was very good. Fresh ingredients, juicy meat, good bread. And the fries was something else. I have never tasted fries this good before. The chicken over rice was very good. The rice was flavourfull, that sauce on top of everything is good, juicy and seasoned chicken, pairs very well with the garlic sauce . In conclusion, definitely recommend eating here!! Also, good prices.

The first experience was great, but I don’t know what happened. The parsley wasn’t chopped, and the shawarma was very bad.

We ordered shawarma halabya and it was absolutely delicious! The flavors were perfectly balanced, the meat was tender and juicy, and the seasoning was spot on.
Everything tasted fresh and authentic, and the portions were generous too. Definitely one of the best shawarmas I’ve had in a long time.
Highly recommend if you’re craving something flavorful and satisfying. They were really fast and professional , will definitely come back with friends ❤️❤️ if you want to have a good taste of shawarmas, sem sem is the go to place .

I have dined in and taken out from SemSem many times and they never disappoint. The inside is very clean and has a nice vibe. They’re very prompt with you at the drive-thru. Service is a 10/10. Oh and obviously the food is amazing. They’re also open late which is a plus for me because I work late. There’s a lot of shwarma places within the area but SemSem truly has my heart. They are the best!

A Hidden Gem That Feels Like Home – Our Family Experience at Semsem Mediterranean
There are restaurants you visit once, and then there are places like Semsem Mediterranean, where the moment you walk through the door, something shifts—you feel at ease, welcomed, and taken care of like family. Our recent visit was nothing short of memorable, and I can confidently say this was one of the most enjoyable dining experiences our family has had in a long time.
We discovered Semsem Mediterranean by chance while looking for a spot that could accommodate our whole family, including a few picky eaters and one person with dietary restrictions. From the moment we stepped inside, we were warmly greeted by the staff. It didn’t feel like the typical transactional hello—it was genuine. They smiled with their eyes, took time to ask how we were doing, and immediately offered to find us a comfortable spot for our group. It felt more like we were being welcomed into someone’s home than seated at a restaurant.
The atmosphere was warm, clean, and beautifully decorated in a way that captures the rich culture of the Mediterranean without feeling overdone. The lighting was soft, and the music in the background was just the right volume—it created a vibe that was both cozy and upbeat, perfect for a relaxed family dinner.
Now to the food—oh my goodness, the food! Every single thing we ordered was bursting with flavor. We started with a round of appetizers: creamy hummus that was velvety smooth and perfectly seasoned, warm fresh-baked pita that was fluffy on the inside with a slight crisp on the outside, and a tabbouleh salad that was so fresh, it almost danced on your tongue. Even our kids, who usually shy away from anything green, kept reaching for more.
For the main course, we ordered a variety of dishes to share—shawarma platters, falafel wraps, lamb kebabs, grilled chicken, and one vegetarian bowl for our niece. Each dish arrived hot and beautifully plated. The lamb was tender and juicy, grilled to perfection with that rich, smoky flavor you only get from a real grill. The chicken had a perfect char and was marinated so well that every bite was infused with flavor. And the falafel—crunchy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside—was easily some of the best we’ve ever had.
What really stood out to us was the attention to detail. Everything tasted homemade, like the recipes had been passed down for generations. You could tell the kitchen took pride in what they served. Even the sides—rice, garlic sauce, pickles, grilled vegetables—were thoughtful and flavorful, not just filler on the plate.
But what truly elevated the whole experience was the people. The staff at Semsem were so incredibly kind. Throughout the meal, they checked in on us just enough—not too much, never overbearing, but always making sure we were enjoying ourselves. They chatted with us like old friends, made us laugh, and even brought out a small dessert on the house when they found out it was my dad’s birthday. That small act of kindness meant so much to us. It wasn’t something flashy or over-the-top—it was thoughtful, sincere, and heartfelt. That’s rare these days.
By the end of the evening, we found ourselves lingering at the table, just enjoying the moment. No one rushed us out. In fact, one of the staff members brought us mint tea and said, “Stay as long as you’d like. You’re part of the family now.” And I’ll be honest, it almost brought tears to my eyes. It’s that kind of warmth and hospitality that stays with you long after the meal is over.
So if you’re looking for a place to eat that serves authentic, flavorful Mediterranean food with heart, Semsem Mediterranean is where you want to be. Whether you’re going out for a quick bite, a special family dinner, or just craving food that feels good for the soul, this place delivers on every level. And the people—they are the kind of kind-hearted, welcoming individuals that make you want to come back not just for the food, but for the feeling of being seen, appreciated, and cared for.
We’ll definitely be back soon

A great choice for a healthy, protein packed lunch. For under $10 I got a chicken gyro wrap with tabbouleh, baba ganoush, veggies and garlic sauce. My date got a falafel bowl – lots of food! Maybe too heavy on the sauce so tell them to go light if that’s a concern. I will say the falafel was AMAZING – the chef gave me a free taste. Its donut shaped instead of spherical for maximum crispness! We were impressed.

I have ordered from here several times and the flavor never disappoints. Recently, one of my wraps were incorrect, and I am impressed at how they responded to this. The staff offered to deliver a fresh wrap with the correct ingredients as a courtesy to correct it. Thank you for the awesome service!
