Was searching for good arabic shawarma and my friend suggested me yseens shawarma, had the family platter, enough for a group of 4 and the fries quantity is also pretty more and also they provide free soup which is tasty. The packing also is good and the staff are friendly. We also tried the saj which is also tasty. We also tried the tender chicken meals and the strips were very tasty and crispy.
Best Syrian style shawarma I’ve ever eaten in my life! The moment I walked into this hidden gem, the intoxicating aroma of authentic spices transported me straight to Damascus. The shawarma master behind the counter clearly takes immense pride in his craft, carefully shaving perfectly seasoned layers of meat from the traditional vertical rotisserie.
What sets this Syrian-style shawarma apart is the incredible attention to detail. The meat was impeccably marinated with a perfect blend of cardamom, sumac, and other traditional spices that created a depth of flavor I’ve rarely experienced elsewhere. The bread was freshly baked - warm, slightly charred, and the ideal thickness to hold all the ingredients without falling apart.
The toppings were equally impressive - crisp pickled vegetables, creamy tahini sauce, and a hint of garlic that complemented rather than overpowered. They didn’t skimp on the portion size either - each wrap was generously filled and wrapped with precision.
The staff’s hospitality matched the food quality, making recommendations and ensuring everything was to my liking. This place truly understands the essence of authentic Syrian cuisine. Whether you’re a shawarma connoisseur or trying it for the first time, this is an absolute must-visit. I’ll definitely be returning to work my way through their entire menu!
Dont forget the POMEGRANATE MOLASSES!

Yaseen’s Shawarma is absolutely fantastic—one of the most authentic shawarma experiences you can find. Their platter is generous, loaded with fries and multiple shawarmas, and the taste is just like what you’d get in Saudi Arabia—it brought back pure nostalgia.
One of the standout touches is their hospitality. They serve free lentil soup on arrival, and the restaurant has a cozy prayer room with mats, making it a welcoming space. But what truly sets them apart is the sign outside, stating that if you don’t have money to eat, food will be provided for free. That level of generosity is rare and deserves immense respect. May Allah bless their business with baraka.
The ambience is great, with a cool Arab vibe, and parking is manageable. If you're looking for traditional, authentic shawarma, this is the spot to visit. Highly recommended!

Amazing portions, delicious food. Got the mixed platter and the chicken saj. I really like the chicken shawarma here, not greasy and full of flavor. Traditional flavours. It gets pretty busy at lunch time so recommend coming early as the food takes some time to prepare. Got some of their lentil soup at the end, so good!!!
I recently tried Yaseen Shawarma but, unfortunately, had a disappointing experience. While the food initially tasted good, my group and I experienced stomach issues afterward, which raises concerns about the food quality or hygiene standards. This was quite unexpected and concerning.
I hope the management addresses these issues and ensures better food handling practices in the future. For now, I would hesitate to recommend this place until improvements are made.
