Guuuuys!!! I cannot explain just how much i love this place! Not only is the service and vibe amazing but the food is super tasty and totally worth the drive out to seapoint if you're staying alil out of town. What i love most (apart from the food) is that the gentlemen serving you are friendly and so passionate about their jobs... awesome awesome awesome!! 5 stars from me :D

Looking for the best shwarma's in town? def the place to come. We always do the laffa Sharma, the pic that was snapped is not the best but it's half of what you actually get. It's a 'do yourself' shwarma place and portion is fairly generous. Friendly staff, seating area abit chilli off season but there's a gas heater usually nearby. Great place

The shawarma and falafels are truly amazing here, delicious and rivals the stand in mojo market! I often grabbed a VERY midnight snack here. Falafels ❤

Had a late night meal at this outlet. Ordered the shawarma laffa which was enough for my partner and I to share. They truly are generous with their portions. Nice variety of add ons like pickles, onions, carrots etc. Tasty sauces as well. I was too hungry to take a picture of my meal.

I keep going back to sea point supposedly to see the sunset over the ocean, visit friends or run along the promenade... the real reason is that I’m hoping to end up having another medium lamb shawarma here. It really is an incredible meal, nay, a culinary journey, a taste sensation, an indescribable joy every time I get my face into one of these bad boys!

Delicious falafel pitas, which also happen to be vegan. If you choose to sit down, they are served on a handy stand! Choose from a variety of fillings and sauces and complement with one of several delicious beers on tap. We like the outdoor informal seating and the fresh air. Super quick, super good. Best enjoyed in company.

After watching the sun set at the beach, we were hungry for some good food that wouldn't take too much time. At shawarma express we found exactly that! The seating outside is nothing fancy, with simple plastic tables and chairs - but when you've still got a bit of sand on your legs, it's a perfect place to grab a quick meal!

In the group of 4 , two got the meat schwarmas, 1 got a falafel and I decided to order the chicken schnitzel option for my pita.

It's an order and pay at the same time type of place and then you can choose your toppings and sauces. The eggplant was a little over salted though, but their tahina is amazing. They don't have the best or biggest variety of toppings compared to other places, but their schwarma meat is amazing. I stole quite few over flowing pieces from the boyfriend's pita and while my schnitzel was delicious and tender, there is no competition: the meat is the real winner here. Highly recommend ordered that.

So this happened to be the only place open on New years day at 4am in the morning after a big night out. Dario and I shared a shawarma with meat, hummus and onions with a side of chips. It did what it needed to do...and tasted delicious. And the portion size is huge! The food smells great and looks fresh. One of those 'dont judge a book by its cover' type places.

Great place for a quick bite! I had the medium shawarma stuffed with hummus, cucumbers, egg plant, onions, succulent lamb, grated carrots, and amazing garlic topping. 👌🏽💁🏽 swift, affordable, and tasty!

The shawarma express in sea point has to be one of the best ones around. The staff are really friendly and the service is quick. I am really happy about how affordable their meals are and also how big the portion sizes are. If you ever need a quick meal that’s filling and tasty I highly suggest checking them out. I am looking forward to my next falafel pita

Staff are FANTASTIC. Food above average. Falafel in laffa was delicious incl. salads and chips Must get there early enough as meat sometimes gets cool. Pity there is only Lamb& Turkey mixed for the meat option... can't you guys serve another option of only Turkey or Beef too?!

Best shawarma I've had in Cape Town. The laffa is huge and definitely worth it for the price - far bigger and tastier than the one you get down the road at Mojo Market. Open late, it's the perfect place to grab a bite after a night out.

Delicious and quick swarmas. They even have it available without the pita bread so you can get more hummus and eggplant goodness. Also, their 'slap' chips are well worth it.

One of the best place for Shawarma in Sea Point. Hope they will open soon in a new place. Portions are very good served for a reasonable price.

Best laffa in town! Massive portion in relation to price. Delicious sauces and decent quality meat for what it is. Falafel is on point though!

Deeeeelicous shawarmas! Really amazing if you enjoy food, lamb and Hummus! The options are generous, and then there's the Laffal - which is another word for truly massive.
