Didnt love their lamb shwarma last time I had it. They used shank which is a different flavor. Do they always do that?

I agree best shawarma in Lakewood, But only Bec all the others are terrible. For me it use to be much better at this point it’s hit or miss.

I went a few weeks ago to Dlux with 30 people. It was early Sunday and requested the party room. At first the manager says sure but the room fee is 10 percent of your bill. And I was said no way, so the more I spend at your store the more it will cost me? And I said I’m just going to take up half of your actual seating for 1.5hrs. And he immediately realized how silly it was and gave me the room for free. Was great for our crowd
