| - I wish you could do 1/2 stars (or out of 10)... I'd be on the fence on 4 or 4.5 stars, but anyways.
I'm not an expert of middle eastern cuisine. I say this after being to (I'd be surprised if wrong) more than 30 joints of all casualness, but more on the fast-food side like Sofra. I've had my fair share of dishes and shawarmas, but I haven't got to fully "get" the cuisine insofar as distinguishing without a doubt this has a great/medium/low quality. For middle eastern, I stick to what agrees with my personal palate.
After reading about, and walking past this place many times, I decided to try it out with my loose change, and try out the staple: a simple chicken shawarma pita (easy to compare vs. many other places).
What I found:
1) A "clean", large enough pita that is quite packed and JUICY
2) The dabbles of hot sauce actually have good spice to it (beauty), so I will ask for more next time!
3) Already a big fan of eggplant, this will not disappoint!
4) Pita shell is a tad thicker than many places, but not too thick
5) Stomach left perfect fullness, and it told me it was "very satisfied" for $7.05.
So, at the end, I gave it a sold 4 (with 4.5 potential), I will definitely need to back to try out their other offerings!
