The best juiciest spicy shawarma I've ever had from Qatar. You're missing out on one of the best shawarmas if you haven't tried their spicy chicken shawarma. DO NOT MISS THIS SPOT. MUST TRY!!! (couldn't think of clicking photos due to extremely high levels of craving).

To be honest this is the only place in Qatar that i have been regularly going for 4 years. The taste in shawarma has not changed at all. I have been in Qatar for almost more than 20 years. This is the only place that has not changed in its quality for shawarma.The Saroukh Shawarma is most demanded. Its 12qr. It should be ordered with extra Turkish Salsa that they paste inside the shawarma and also with extra garlic.The Half Chicken there is also really good. It is also very recommendable.The staff there is very friendly.

I had a fantastic experience at the Turkish restaurant in Doha Rayan. The shawarma's taste is amazing, and the BBQ and chicken kebabs are truly delicious. While parking can be a challenge due to the busy road, the location is convenient with various restaurants and grocery stores within walking distance.
