We stop here quite often for the whole chickens and both the chicken and lamb shawarma sandwiches. I love the pita bread with the garlic butter sauce wrapped around pieces of chicken.

So here's the plan.....walk next door to Zankow Chicken order some chicken, or what ever you like, get it to go then walk next door to the liqueur store grab a couple 24 oz beers... More

Zankou Chicken is LA's hidden gem. Not too many people have heard of this place, but you need to try them out. Order a whole chicken with pita bread and ALOT of garlic butter. Wrap you up a lovely chicken wrap and enjoy. You'll love it! More

My wife and I go here with our friends often for dinner. This place has delicious chicken and lamb swarma platters. You get a ton of food for a very reasonable price. Do not be deceived by the decor or location - this place serves excellent food. P.S - Make sure you get the garlic sauce! They also have free... More

Meat tastes great no matter what you choose! However, I love the Chicken Shwarma with the garlic sauce and pita bread. The falafel is great tasting as well. Don't be fooled by the appearance! Order take out and you will be fine. You are there for the food!!! More

Overall the food smelled very good, after ordering and taking it next door to our room, we found out it was kind of bland and the flavor definately did not match the smell. More
