    Food safety concerns, the ones prepping the food have obviously dirty aprons, no hairnets, sometimes don't use gloves. Shawarma is average. They prioritize their phone orders over the walk-in/drive-in. So you will have to order at 11 for your order to be ready at 1. Terrible customer service.

    Very nice and quick spot for a light meal like a shawarma which I got for 250. You order at the till then wait outside to watch the staff make it fresh for you. The meat was cooked perfectly. The bread was very soft and for a very good price can’t go wrong.

    Al Barka is located around Kapiti Road, in south b estate, the have a variety of foods to choose from Viazi karai, Chicken Tikka, etc that are all made with a homely feel. The portions are great, especially if you have it at the spot.. Sitting areas are limited but the experience is worth it. I'd recommend Chips Mix...

    ▪︎I had bhajias is was just okay. Like their fresh juice (Passion). The only available meat option was chicken. ⚠️ The restaurant is best for take aways. Their seating space is limited|squeezed|busy-loud|hot.

    I love love the chicken mix. (Chips and shawarma chiken) The homemade mayonnaise is a lovely combination to the mix. 10/10 especially when they prepare it with some pilipili The Naan. Wuwiiiiii. Just too delicious 😋 Best Naan I've ever had. I'm serious. And everything is made fresh
