About Shawarma Night & Gelato

Late-night cravings meet serious craft at Shawarma Night & Gelato, where spiced meats spin slow and custom breads get toasted to order. Locals bypass standard pita wraps for warm, diamond-shaped Iraqi samoun or thin saj bread packed with seasoned lamb shawarma, garlic sauce, and crisp hot chips. Family hospitality keeps the counter buzzing toward midnight. Finish the meal without changing seats—grab a scoop of pistachio gelato or crunchy, syrup-soaked kunafa straight from the dessert display.

  • Regional Bread Selection: Wraps are customized on regional breads like Iraqi samoun, saj, and Afghani bread, pressed crisp with house garlic sauce and spiced meats.
  • Grill and Gelato Counter: Savory plates of lamb skewers and chicken wraps seamlessly transition to in-house gelato and crisp kunafa.
  • Late-Night Kitchen: The kitchen turns out made-to-order hot shawarma and toasted rolls well past typical dinner hours right up to closing time.

Why Dine With Us

Why Shawarma Night & Gelato stands out for authentic charcoal wraps, dessert pairings, and late-night hospitality.

  • Authentic, Perfectly Toasted Shawarma

    Wraps are made to order with authentic marinades, tender cuts of meat, and toasted wrappers filled with generous seasoning and garlic sauce.

    The shawarma she prepared for me was, without a doubt, the best I’ve had in Sydney so far. Everything was incredibly fresh—the meat, the ingredients, and the perfectly toasted wrap.

  • Traditional Middle Eastern Bread Variety

    Guests can select from regional flatbreads including Afghani bread, saj bread, and Iraqi samoun instead of standard pita wraps.

    We tried the Shawarma with Afgani bread it was tosted to prefection, then we tired the Iraqi Bread (Samoun) with Shawarma love it.

    Rich Middle Eastern dessert options like freshly prepared kunafa and house sweets let guests finish their meal on a warm, decadent note.

    Delicious and fresh kunafa with a light crunch and an authentic taste. The syrup is perfectly balanced, not too heavy

  • Reliable Late-Night Dining and Full Service

    The kitchen remains open and gladly accommodates hungry patrons right up to closing time without cutting corners or shrinking menus.

    We came at 11:10pm and they closed at 11:30pm and they did not reject our order or say it was too much. They gave us more than we could ask for

  • Fresh Midnight Takeaway Orders

    Late evening orders are cooked hot and fresh right before midnight rather than pre-packaged or rushed out the door.

    despite how late it was (12am), when we pulled up to collect our food, they made sure our food was cooked fresh and kept warm for us.
