Lava Shawarma
4.5 (285)restaurant
This welcoming Brooklyn spot pairs tender, juicy chicken shawarma with a complimentary cup of warm cardamom tea.
Description




Beyond the main dishes, the draw here is a level of hospitality that feels more like visiting a friend’s home than a typical restaurant. The kitchen prepares its Middle Eastern menu with a focus on fresh quality and care, accommodating both a quick grab-and-go stop and a sit-down dinner with family. The spiced tea offered at the end of the meal adds a final, aromatic note to the experience.
