Haven't had The Sheik since I was a kid! My delivery order was simple. I got a Camel Rider (Ham, Bologna, Salami, Cheese, Mayo, Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, Sheik dressing, Pita). It arrived with the dressing leaking from the wrap and bleeding through the bag, just like way back when and the taste remains the same. Great nostalgia! Please don't change a thing.
Great place. Steak in a sack, extra seasoning on fries and cherry limeade and I'm a happy person.
After a perfect day at the beach we needed something other than some chain fast food to satisfy. Stopped by and grabbed a roast beef in a pita, with fries and was completely satisfied and wanted more!!! I'm not a huge fan of onions unless it's a bloomin' onion, so I checked to see if they could do steak without the onions but unfortunately they cook the steak with the onions so they recommended the roast beef, with lettuce and mayonnaise, and it was amazing!!!! Could've been because I was hungry, but it was great, alongside the seasoned fries and a sweet tea!
My favorite go to spot for breakfast when I'm on the go. I always order the egg, grits and sausage with toast. There is a lot of food so it is a 2 meal deal for me. The drive through is pretty fast. The cherry limeade is my favorite drink. When I go for lunch I normally order the camel rider which is my favorite sandwich of all times. The staff is nice. There is a inside where you can dine. It is normally clean and you can always find a clean table to sit all. I have been eating here for over 25 years.
delicious subs. awesome custimer service. Will definitely come back here again!! drive thru was very quick
