Our take: Damascus Delights generally receives high praise for its authentic Syrian flavours, particularly the shawarma and the Chicken Mandi Rice.
The Chicken Mandi Rice, noted as a Ramadan special, is highlighted for its smoky basmati rice, tender, fall-off-the-bone chicken, and generous portion size, potentially serving 2-3 people.
The upsized lamb shawarma is also frequently recommended for its tender, juicy, and flavourful meat.
However, we note some inconsistencies.
While many rave about the food, there are reports of dry chicken in the wraps and an unappealing, overly spiced hummus.
Service can also be a point of contention, with mentions of long waiting times and staff appearing annoyed during busy periods.
We think it's worth trying for the signature dishes, but be prepared for potential operational hiccups.
Verdict: A good option for authentic Syrian shawarma and mandi, but manage expectations regarding service and consistency of all menu items.
Best for those who appreciate generous portions and don't mind a potential wait.

Nearly 20 years ago, I visited Syria and I have fond memories of eating shawarma from tiny street stalls in the backstreets of Damascus. So, when I heard there was a Syrian running a shawarma still in…
