“Sincerely Syria is rated by many acclaimed food critics, including the LA Times, as the best Shawarma in California. Despite their inexpensive menu, Sincerely Syria entered the LA Times’ prestigious list of Top 100 Restaurants in Los Angeles. The establishment is known to focus on artisanal craftsmanship and offers only Syria’s most iconic street food: Shawarma in both varieties, Chicken or Beef.”

3 weeks agoProbably the best/most authentic shawarma place in America. Iโve lived in the Middle East for over a decade and Iโve yet to have a shawarma in L.A, let alone the U.S.A, that is as close to the level of authenticity in terms of taste and quality like Sincerely Syria meets. A must-stop for sure! Well priced for the quantity as well.

3 weeks agoHaving grown up in the Middle East and eating Shawerma my whole life, I have always craved a go-to spot while living in the US. It is very difficult to find the same level of quality and taste because many places feel like they need to "adapt" to the local market. Sincerely Syria is unapologetic and sticks to tradition in making their Shawerma. Everything from roasting the pita a little on the fire in the begining to topping it off with garlic sauce right before serving it is the right way. The taste and quality are top notch. You won't see them adding things that don't make sense like lettuce and hummus. If you are a die hard Shawerma fan and need to satisfy your cravings, this is your place!

9 months agoWas in the area and stumbled on this great little Syrian restaurant. Lucky I found street parking right in front of the place. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Service is very friendly. Simple menu. Reasonable price. The food: on of the best authentic Syrian shawarma I've ever had. I tried both the chicken and meat. Both are juicy and flavorful. Personally, I liked the chicken more. After finishing 2 six inches each, I ordered another chicken because it was so good. Will definitely be returning when I'm in the area.

11 months agoI recently dined at Sincerely Syria, and I must say, the experience was quite delightful. My order consisted of the Chicken Shawarma and Beef Shawarma plate with a side of fries. Overall, I was impressed with the flavors, reasonable prices, and the friendly atmosphere of the restaurant. The highlight of my meal was undoubtedly the Shawarma. Both the chicken and beef were perfectly seasoned, tender, and packed with delicious Middle Eastern spices. The combination of flavors was simply mouthwatering, leaving me craving for more. The portion sizes were generous, ensuring that I left the restaurant feeling satisfied. However, there was one aspect of my meal that fell short of expectationsโthe accompanying fries. While they were decent, I couldn't help but notice that they seemed to be of the cheaper variety. They lacked the crispiness and flavor that would have complemented the Shawarma perfectly. I believe that upgrading the fries to a better quality would elevate the entire dish to a whole new level. Despite this minor setback, I must emphasize that the overall dining experience at Sincerely Syria was enjoyable. The attentive staff and inviting ambiance added to the positive impression. Moreover, the prices were reasonable, considering the quality and portion sizes of the Shawarma plates. In conclusion, I highly recommend Sincerely Syria for their delicious Shawarma offerings and reasonable prices. With a small improvement in the fries department, this restaurant would easily earn a perfect 10 out of 10 rating. I look forward to returning and exploring more of their enticing menu.
