| - Their food always has the feeling of being fresh & light (unless you get the fries, and come on, fries can never really be described in that way). My favorite thing to get here is the marinated chicken skewers; they come with hummus, feta salad, and couscous, but I'm not a fan of the couscous so I ask to sub it out with either extra hummus or extra salad, and they never have an issue with that (I love a place that doesn't balk at simple substitutions!). The hummus is more watery than I like and not as flavorful as I'd like, so instead of dipping my pita pieces in it, I use it as a sauce for my chicken, which has a TON of good flavor. The feta salad as awesome -- tiny pieces of romaine, feta, tomato, cucumber, and red onion with a couple kalamata olives (I don't like olives so I pick those out). My mom is crazy about their Mediterranean salad, which is an entree salad with romaine, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, roasted red peppers, roasted cauliflower, artichoke hearts, and kalamata olives (it's also awesome if you add a skewer's worth of chicken to it). The dressing they have for the salad is SO DAMN GOOD that I always end up stealing some to dip my pita wedges in. Sure, I could order a side of it for my own use, but it's always more fun (and the food seems to taste better) when you steal it from someone else, no?
