" I can't stop raving about the shawarma here! It felt so fresh, and every ingredient was on point. The garlic sauce was a little overwhelming for my taste, but the overall experience was delightful! The seating situation is definitely not ideal, so takeout might be better. I will return for more deliciousness! " (*Curated Review*)

" Shelby’s is definitely unique! I liked the option to customize my wrap with so many sauces and toppings, but I ended up with more sauce than I anticipated. The space was bustling, but the team kept things moving along. All in all, a fun experience with good food! I just wish I could have enjoyed at a table instead of taking it to go. " (*Curated Review*)

" The concept at Shelby's is fantastic, but I feel the execution could improve. The flavors in the wrap were good, but might have been a bit too overpowered by sauces. The service was friendly, and despite the seating crunch, they handled our orders quickly. Worth a try if you're nearby but perhaps don't expect 100% authenticity. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm glad I found Shelby's during my trip! The authenticity was apparent, with the wrap being delicious and freshly made. The self-service machines made ordering a breeze. My only negative was I felt that the fries could've been a tad more crispy. I will return whenever I'm in town again. " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here based on my friend's recommendation and was not disappointed! The shawarma wrap was thoroughly satisfying; there were layers of flavors that exploded in every bite. Atmosphere was lively, with a young crowd. My only complaint is the wait times; it was busy but worth it in the end! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to finally try Shelby's after seeing all the buzz online. The shawarma wrap was massive and packed with juicy meat. The combination of sauces really elevated the flavor. The staff were friendly and made me feel welcome. A tip – come early if you want to snag a seat because it fills up fast! Overall, I left very satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my first experience at Shelby’s! The chicken shawarma was incredibly juicy and packed with flavor. Each ingredient complemented the others perfectly—definitely not your standard shawarma! The service team was very welcoming, making my visit even more enjoyable. Just be sure to arrive early if you want a seat as it gets packed! " (*Curated Review*)
