Shawarma King

Story

Welcome to HAJAR'S SHAWARMA KING, founded and operated by international chef Hajar Salih. We are masters of Persian and middle eastern cuisine and are proud runners up in Glasgow Live’s ‘Best Kebab in Glasgow’ awards!

Working as a professional chef in both Damascus and Lebanon, Hajar is passionate about fresh, authentic Persian cuisine. He struggled to find the food he loved in Glasgow and so, Hajar’s Shawarma King was born!

The story began with a small unit under the railway arches on King Street in the city centre. Originally a barber shop, it was a real challenge to fit everything we needed into such a small unit. Hajar and his team worked tirelessly to transform the unit into the thriving business it is today.

The key thing for us at Shawarma King is fresh food, quality ingredients and lots of flavour! We build our mighty Shawarma kebabs daily in house, make our own hummus, garlic sauce and naan breads and strive to deliver an unforgettable meal experience each and every time.

The city centre is now very established, and we present our Paisley store.

Hajar says - ‘’ Now that we are busy in the city centre and have lots of loyal customers we want to bring some fresh, authentic and beautiful food to the lovely people of Paisley”

They recently won best shawarma in Glasgow 2022 and they are the best in whole Glasgow so far, I love the unique taste and it's get freshly made while you wait and their price are very reasonable too ,they Often get too busy but still worth waiting for. _Top Tip_usually an order takes up to 2.5 minutes per order to get completed so be ready for average about 20 to 30 minutes which is not bad in busy time. Taste 5/5 Service 3.5/5 Quality 5/5 Prices 5/5
Actually quite a good combination of the crispy lamb with the cabbage. We stumbled upon this place by chance after a walk in the necropolis and a drink in a nearby pub. Please be prepared to wait at least 20' though for your shawarma as they take the time to prepare it when ordered go to the cashier, order and you'll get a number that they will call.
Hands down the best shawarma I’ve ever had and also one of the best takeaways in Glasgow. The lamb shawarma tastes really good and I think the prices are reasonable. Because of the high demand, orders usually take around 20 to 35 minutes but the taste is really worth the wait.
Tried a few times. Fresh. Succulent meats. Tasty. Great service and standard. It's constantly queued out for a reason. It's worth the wait and unbelievable value for money. Best in Scotland by far.
Went late at night on a Sunday, after 10pm and there was a good crowd outside and this just shows what a great shop this is. I had the lamb shawarma on naan, fancied a mixed but the chicken was running low and the spits are massive so must have been a busy night and it would've been a 25 minute wait for fresh. However I certainly wasn't let down by the offering. A massive fresh naan, filled with juicy shavings of lamb, soft with the odd little crispy edge. Fresh garlic sauce which was beautiful and not overpowering like some. The chilli sauce was tasty but not overly powerful. A small box of salad in the side with lovely fresh salad, onion, jalapeño, tomatoes etc. Think I had a 10 minute wait all together, even with the crowd infront of me. £8.50 well spent. Definitely worth a visit, I'd have loved to have tried a few things on the menu. Parking: In street parking Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessed but not a large space to move around in.
Best place you'll find ! Mince kurdish BBQ kebab is my favourite with rice. Unreal flavours!
The best Shawarma I've ever had You can enjoy the special taste in the best Shawarma kebab restaurant around the UK. Juicy, tasty, full of flavours, Crunchy, delicious and Made with Love Thanks a lot folks
Amazing Chicken Shawarma. Smoky, juicy and all different flavours in one bite. Worth every calorie, worth every penny and worth the queue. Come before dinner time 5pm to avoid the queue. Just amazing …
Went here last week based on reviews on here and having tried I have no idea what they are on about. I had the mixed wrap and it was the blandest Shawarma I have had. Might taste good if you’ve been on a night. Would not recommend.Recommended dishesMixed Shawarma
I'd give it a 3.5* if I could. We both had a large chicken shawarma which my partner enjoyed more than me - I liked it but I found it to be too much on the salty side which meant some of the really good flavours barely stood out. Also I would have preferred more salad in it. The actual bread used for the wrap was lovely. I'm glad we've tried it and wouldn't discourage anyone from going, it's very busy and popular - we just wouldn't rush back.
