| - A comfy, dependable little spot for a great hearty lunch or a casual dinner. They specialize in mediterranean fare and have a HUGE menu, with lots of choices for carnivores, vegetarians and vegans alike. I've been many times so will list some of my favorite items:
--Hummus: huge portion, creamy and tangy. Get it with the garlic sauce as an accompaniment if you have time to brush your teeth multiple times in the aftermath.
--Jaffar's Pizza: My favorite thing on the menu. Crispy pita bread, topped with their amazing veggie chili (chock full of beans, veggies, spices, and flavor), then COVERED with cheddar cheese, scallions, and tahini. It's in the style of Taco Bell's Mexican pizza, but so much better (and you know, likely healthier)
--Falafel rolled pita: Perfectly cooked falafel that's relatively easy to eat in sandwich form
--Mujadara Plate: vegan offering of lentils and rice. So filling and warming
--Jasmine's Favorite: another vegan choice ... beans, veggies, rice. A nice selection for when I'm trying to stay on the healthy side of the tracks
They also have fresh-made juices (the basic carrot-celery is my favorite), and a decent selection of well-priced beers and wine.
Prices are great, the huge choice of desserts is beyond belief (I'm not a sweets fan but they look as though they were created by Michelangelo himself), and the service is always reliable. In the summer they have a nice little patio with about 10 tables off to the side, but dining inside is perfectly comfortable as well.
