Halal Reviews for Arma Soho

After curiously walking by several times over the last month prior to this week’s launch - I was eager to try this place out once they opened their doors this week to the public. I’ve travelled around Europe and the Middle East as somewhat of a food tourist and would like to think I know my way around a shawarma so was eager get straight in with the beef offering (Beef Arma on the menu). The meat’s flavour was delicious - with a good ratio of salad to meat and a nice lean texture without being too tough. I was also impressed with the quality of the wrap, it wasn’t brittle or prone to tearing and it held together very well; the portion size also offered fantastic value for money. The garlic sauce worked very well too with the beef (I was offered this by the very helpful staff instead of tahini once I informed them of my allergies. The customer service was great and they helped me navigate the menu letting me know which dishes I couldn’t order). The service was really efficient and I wasn’t waiting more than 3 minutes each time I visited, which was twice this week! On my second visit I ordered the Chicken Arma, which was just as good as the beef and I also tried the Tabbouleh salad and the loaded fries. Everything was of very high quality and the chilli sauce dip they offer works very well with the Chicken Arma! I was also amazed to find out the the loaded fries are in fact baked! (They still taste amazing whilst still being healthy and complement the meat / sauces very well!) As well as the friendly, attentive and helpful staff I really love the decor and layout, the vibe and mood of the upstairs seating area is great for groups throughout the day. I’d highly recommend and as I work locally I’ll be returning relatively often. It’s likely to become very popular soon once word gets out. This has become a new favourite!

Really tasty shawarma wraps! The portions, in my opinion, are medium and I'd imagine you'd need 1.5 to 2 to fill you up. Definitely a nice little clean take away. Not too spicy, but you can add sauces to give it a bit of a kick.

Good quality ingredients & unpretentious. Definitely a step up from most Edgware Road shawarma places..Worth stopping by if you’re in the area and fancy a bite.

Ordered from the Medz Corner branch - a food outlet in High Street Ken. Quite possibly worst shawarma I've ever had (doused in lemon juice). The service at Arma (In Medz Corner food court) was even worse: The man was acting as if I was doing him a favour and had a weirdly aggressive approach to me ordering.

Walked in while walking in Soho. The place looked attractive from outside! The food was amazing especially the Falafel wrap and the loaded beef fries. Would recommend to anyone looking for an authentic taste of Middle Eastern food or a healthy alternative to greasy shawarmas we are all used to.
