7.8
Sincerely Syria is a narrow, late-night shawarma and falafel counter on Hollywood Boulevard that has quietly built a loyal following. Wraps come stuffed and crispy, fries are piled high, and sauces skew bold and garlicky. It’s more functional than polished, but for post-show or post-bar eats, it’s one of the tastier, trend-aware budget moves in 90028.
Must-Try Dishes:
Mixed shawarma wrap with fries, Falafel wrap or plate, Garlic fries or loaded shawarma fries
What Makes it Special: A tiny Syrian shawarma counter turning out crispy, overstuffed wraps late into the night.
