Zhara's Fairmont (Halal) - Fairmont, WV

While traveling through, we found this magical source of the best Takeaway anywhere. We had the Gyro and the combination plate. The quantities are enormous, the value is incredible, and amazing service / hospitality. The second time we visited, we were running late and would arrive about 10 minutes after closing. They prepared our food, we paid by credit card, and picked up the food after hours. You just can’t ask for a more kind and gentle owner. The food is perfectly seasoned, (one beautifully spicy, the other not), and melting your mouth flavor. Strongly recommend, 11 out of 10! We will make this a regular stop as we have occasion to pass through town.

This was our first time trying this food truck and it did not disappoint. It is very popular so they were out of their chicken option by the time we got there around 12:15pm on a Thursday. I have never liked lamb in the past and have tried it a few different times. The owner said his was the best and let me try it before ordering. He was an absolutely correct. It was beyond delicious, tender, juicy, and flavorful without the normal gamey taste I’ve had with other lamb.
We ordered two lamb platters and they were inexpensive for the amount of food you receive. The platter includes meat over yellow/orange rice and a cucumber/tomato/lettuce salad topped with a creamy sauce and a spicy red sauce (can also get it on the side but it’s amazing, just add it). It comes with two triangles of pita as well.
They are also selling drinks and we got to try the mango boba tea. It came in a can and was light and refreshing. The boba beads in the can are smaller than I’ve had before and, rather than being chewy, provide a burst of flavor when they pop in your mouth. Definitely going to try that again!
To note: they are located in the parking lot down below Merchant street towards the river. It can be tricky to find but if you pull in the alley between Stumptown Ales and Yemen Coffee Hut, you’ll drive down a hill and it’s on the left at the bottom.
This is a definite gem in Fairmont and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal!

What a gem. This gyro food truck has quick service with perfectly seasoned food. Our lamb and chicken (combo) platters were fresh with a nice balance of white sauce to meat and rice with a greek salad on the side. We also had a Hummus salad with flat bread. Both were absolutely delicious. The place has very friendly service staff. Their parking is right behind Stumptown Ales and LumberjAxe axe throwing place on Merchant St. Tuesday - Thursday lunch hours only. Friday, both lunch and dinner hours. Saturday dinner only. Definitely worth a try.

If you’re thinking about going, go! I went for the first time tonight and I am already ready to go back again. The food was amazing and cooked perfectly , the service was great and very friendly , and the prices were fair for the amount of food you get. This is definitely my new favorite food truck I have been to around the Morgantown/Fairmont area. Just go!

I had to circle back around the block when I seen his truck was finally not sold out. I was a little nervous to try lamb but now I’m over here stuffed & already planning my next order! Thanks a bunch

100000/10 cannot say enough wonderful things about the food, the service, the family! The chicken gyro platter is literally my dream. We’ve had it 4 times just this month. Seriously, if you are looking for something new, delicious and DREAM worthy you’ve got to try Zharas!

This was a great find! Being from NJ/NY there's good halal every where.... very hard to find in this area. This one definitely checks the box!

Great prices for even better food! The lamb is always tender and excellently seasoned. I like to order Zhara's for my out-of-town friends and they always rave about how amazing the food is. You've got to give Zhara's a try any time you're in Fairmont!
