They had a friends and family event last week, and they are treating this week as a soft opening (grand coming next week). I'm planning to head over tonight for some tabouli and shawarma. Shawafel is open for lunch and dinner. 1322 H Street.

Quick question said...

Is Shawafel a waiter/waitress place or a buy and sit place? We haven't eaten out much on H because it gets pricey with the tips.

Quick,
I believe you order at the counter and they bring you the food.

Shawafel is Shawamazing! Just went for a meat Shawarma. The beef and lamb was cooked perfectly. They make their skewered meats in house, and you can definitely tell the difference.

Went for dinner and it was really good. The chicken shawarma and the tabouleh in particular were awesome. Took a little while to get the food but understandable for being their first day and they were really nice. They will probably clean up on weekends if they stay open late.

They were really friendly. On Friday evening they were giving away free sandwiches and free salad buffet all night long. They even refused to take tip.

This place looks awesome. Can't wait to try it out.

Hey, does anyone have an update on the Pho place?

MJ said...

do they have a "Fixin's Bar" or do they do up the shwarma/falafel for you?

They do it.
