Shawarma Palace on Main Street in Worcester
Worcester restaurant Shawarma Palace has closed until further notice due to a staffing problem, the company has posted on its website.
The company did not immediately respond to a request for clarification on Tuesday as to what the staffing problem was, nor did anyone at the restaurant answer the company’s phone line.
The local social media website The016.com first reported the news.
The entire hospitality industry has been troubled by staffing shortages throughout the coronavirus pandemic, first as they shut down in the early phases due to various gathering restrictions, and now as restaurants struggle to find workers for open positions.
Shawarma Palace moved from its Pleasant Street location and into a vacant restaurant space at 20 Franklin St., a building owned by the Worcester Business Development Corp., last fall. The restaurant, owned by Charles Dalli, opened in 2014 and specializes in both shawarma and other Mediterranean fare.
