When I'm looking for something other than the typical "college town" food, I love eating at Lazizas! It's in a great little corner of downtown Kent, so while you're waiting for a table you can stop in at some of the local shops to look around.
Lazizas has light and delicious Medeteranian food! When I get an appetizer, there's a great dish that has some hummus and other types of dips with pita and veggies that is out of this world! I usually get the lentil soup as my main dish, which definitely hits the spot. I know there's a bar towards the entrance, but I haven't had the chance to try any of their specialty drinks.
The only thing I dislike about this restaurant is that it's a little pricey, but you pay for quality food so I can't really complain. I went to Lazizas to celebrate my birthday last year, so that in itself shows you how much I would recommend this place. Gotta love Lazizas!
