Iheanyichukwu B. ★★★★★ : I love everything about this brand, they started out as with small chops now they are growing to become a very good restaurant and shawarma joint. The creaminess of the shawarma is something, let me not talk about their pepper soup. I've tasted a lot of others, but none beats JESWIN'S own. I unapologetically spend my salary in their restaurant.
Kupolati E. ★★★★★ : Splendid energy! They make the best Sharwamas!!

Angelica K. ★★★★★ : The tortiyah was like broken and hard and there was no sausages in it and um the content is horible
Vitus U. ★★★★★ : Looking for a place to get a delicious shawarma, look no further. Shawarma Lovers is the place. Located in the popular Hytel Plaza (Ikenegbu) along Wethedra Road by Cherubim junction. SL has made a niche for itself in the industry due to its consistency, hygienic and business management. A visit will blow you away. Walk in to buy for your pleasure. They also supply for parties and events. Their services are top notch. Whenever you visit Owerri SL will make your stay memorable.

ogechukwu N. ★★★★★ : Creamy nd has great taste Best in customer service satisfaction
MBAH C. ★★★★★ : I feel like y’all that say this is the best shawarma have definitely not had a good well made shawarma. First off, I ordered for a chicken shawarma, opened it up and it was beef and the annoying part was the beef wasn't even tender. Filled with onions that I had to pick out. And guess what, I called to complain about the beef shawarma that was sent instead of chicken shawarma I paid for and I didn't get any response or apologies afterwards for that. Overall, I'd rate them 2/10 .
