5 Must-Try Dishes at Shawarma Mia (Beyond the Classic Shawarma Wrap)

Shawarma Mia is known for serving some of the best dishes in Brooklyn’s Middle Eastern food scene – and while the classic wrap is a fan favorite, there’s more on the menu worth exploring. These are the best dishes at Shawarma Mia, which regulars keep ordering, again and again.

1. Build-Your-Own Bowl

This is the go-to meal when you want flexibility and flavor. Choose your base, add a main, and top it your way. The bowls are simple to customize and perfect when you’re craving real, balanced Turkish street food.

2. Falafel Plate

Freshly made, golden, and crisp – this is a plant-based favorite dish that stands on its own. Served with sauces and sides, it’s a clean and easy pick for anyone who wants something filling but light.

3. Shawarma Mix

If you’re looking for something different, the shawarma mix brings together lamb, beef, and chicken in one dish – a flavorful upgrade for anyone who’s ready to go beyond the classic. It’s one of our most unique shawarma dishes and works in any format: wrap, bowl, or pita.

4. Adana Kebab

This kebab delivers heat and depth without overcomplicating things. Grilled and built with care, it’s a great option if you want to switch up your usual order and explore more of the region’s cuisine.

5. Mezze on the Side

Add a few small plates to your meal – hummus, baba ganoush, or spicy ezme – or build a full spread from the mezze section. It’s a flexible way to eat that works for groups, quick snacks, or slower meals.

Extras That Round It Out

Fries, bulgur, lentil soup, and house-made sauces add even more flavor. Don’t forget the ayran – and if you’ve got room, dessert hits best with a piece of baklava.
