I was meeting one of my friends in the area, and I had my dog with me. With that being said, I didn't want to leave him in the car by himself- as it was a cool 95 that day. I used my trusty Yelp app, and stumbled upon this place. I was pleased at the decent reviews, so I figured, why not.
As I pulled up to the shopping center (Rockmore Plaza), I saw the place was a stand alone unit. And it didn't look too busy. I ended up doing the drive thru. As I pulled around the building I looked at the menu. I noticed two things: you pull up to window to order, and the prices have actually DROPPED in comparison to the pictures on Yelp.
I pulled up and noticed a sign, that said , "Honk to let us know you are here". I thought to myself, "this can either go really well or really bad". So I honked. And as I honked, a DeKalb Police Officer pulls up right in front of me. Thankfully, he gave me a dirty look, then drove off.
It took about 2 minutes for the lady to come to window, but she was very nice. I ordered 2X jumbo beef shawarmas, with Baraka (garlic) sauce only. The total was 16$ n some change, I gave her a Jackson and called it good.
As I was sitting there salivating waiting enjoying the air conditioning in my car, she came back with the food. I drove off. Now, I couldn't believe it, but I completely forgot to order a drink. I pulled over, and started to eat. Sorry I didn't take pics.
I was mesmerized at how large the sandwiches were, especially at $8 a piece. They were about a foot long, and stuffed with beef and sauce. The first one, was awesome. The second one, I don't know how to describe it, but it did not taste as good as the first. Maybe because I didn't have a drink to wash it down? Who knows, but still surprising, since they were the exact same thing.
After letting it settle, I got hungry again, which I couldn't believe, since I had eaten so much food in one sitting. I think the dog was pissed I didn't share. Oops.
This is a solid sandwich shop on Memorial if you are wanting to stray away from Wendy's or the other fast food options around. Take note it made fresh to order so if you are in a hurry may want to look elsewhere...
