First of all food snobs get over yourselves. Of course it isn't authentic. It's fast food essentially. It's awesome though. The hummus is actually amazing and the closest to authentic I've found. I've actually lived outside the country in places where hummus is as commonly on your table as ketchup and this is very similar. Real hummus is thinner like theirs. The food is always perfectly cooked and seasoned, never salty and fairly healthy. The customer service is wonderful, everyone is friendly. At $10 it's worth every penny and keeps me full for hours. Definitely what I would choose over the many overpriced restaurants in the area.
