Qasti Shawarma Grill

Finally touching down for a Parisian layover, I had one mission: visit the spot I’ve been trailing across Instagram and YouTube for months. When a Michelin-starred visionary like Chef Alan crafts a concept, you don't just walk you run. To be honest, I arrived with a bit of a "Parisian problem." I was already blissfully weighed down by an afternoon of elite pastries, crusty baguettes, and more croissants than I’d care to admit. But even with a nearly full tank, I couldn't miss out. The Verdict: Pure Magic I opted for the Chicken Shawarma, and "legendary" truly feels like an understatement. Here’s why it’s worth the hype: The Texture: The chicken achieved that impossible culinary heights—perfectly crisp on the edges while remaining impossibly juicy and tender within. The Toum: Absolutely unapologetic. It was thick, creamy, and loaded with that bold garlic punch that lingers in the best way possible. I only wish I’d arrived with a hungrier stomach to explore more of the menu. Until next time, I'll be dreaming of that garlic sauce. Chef Alan, if you’re reading this, Paris is lovely, but Los Angeles is calling your name. We have a spot waiting for you!

Qasti shawarma is my way to go everytime when: 1- I do not want to slend a fortune but in the same time I want good food (quality and quantity). 2- I miss our lebanese mankoushe. 3- I want to have a traditional lebanese breakfast (labneh, mankoushe , hommos, vegetables). 4- invite someone to try a good Shawarma in Paris. 5- i want to eat ice-cream (bashir glace is near them) lol...

The shawarmas here are solid. Not the best I have ever had and a bit below my expectations for the founder who is a Michelin star chef. But still good. Not a place I’d return to but would still recommend to someone who is in the area. The service is friendly and the restaurant is reasonably clean.

Such a fantastic place. There are digital displays on which you can order though not all things are on there such as some of the salads in the fridges. There are chicken, beef and falafel shawarmas ( don’t call the kebabs!) plus other options for platters and dine in meals. There is downstairs as well but don’t see what it was like. Some outdoor tables too. There are two sections, the take away and the dine in grill. Just great food!

I was lucky to visit on a friday, which meant I was able to taste the suju ( sausage) shawarma. I got 3 shawarmas, beef, chicken and sujuu. I had to taste them all. They use real meat for beef and I guess pure chicken for their shawarma which means you are getting quality meat (not a mixture of weird bits and unremoved ligaments) . The sujuu was very flavourful with a lot of spice and seasoning (not hot spicy). My favourite was the beef then the sujuu then the chicken only because of how they fill the sandwich with different sauces. In general, I was very satisfied and would return if i revisit paris. I went on a friday afternoon, it wasn't very busy and my order was prepared in maybe 10minutes. The price is super reasonable. I paid 7.50 for each wrap with no meal option. The price is super reasonable for the high quality food. The area is very lively too with a nice ambiance.

I recently ordered the beef shawarma plate at Qasti for €14, and it was absolutely delicious—possibly my favorite dish there. Previously, I had tried the chicken shawarma, which was good but didn't quite match the quality of the beef. Considering the generous amount of meat in the plate, €14 is an incredibly affordable price.

The best baba gannoush you could ever taste in Paris. A must try! Food overall is very delicious here, good quality, except for the fries, they are a bit dry! Prices are higher than other Lebanese places.

When I'm in Paris I have to pass by Qasti for Shawarma! We ordered chicken and sujuk shawarma with a fries box, the order didn't take much time despite the place being full as always. Unfortunately, we didn't have the best experience this time. The chicken tasted good but overcooked in some bites, while the sujuk was average. Despite that, it's still one of the best shawarma places in Europe with good quality. Recommend when you're in Paris.
