| - I've read tons about this place and I think I got a salad here when it first opened (which I remember as being great), but I figured Milo's Pita deserved a chance to fill the Mediterranean food void in my heart.
We showed up around 1 on a Thursday and there was only one person in front of me. As per all the other reviews (and first hand experience watching the guy make his food in past) the service is slowish but for good reason. I'm a big fan of how he puts the wraps together - every bite was balanced (unlike some places where you get all meat in one bite and all veg in another). Quite frankly, he's sped up quite a bit since they opened, but I still don't get why he does everything himself. The other guy just sorta stands there and does cash.
I got the falafel deluxe combo with chickpeas and veggies as my side. The wrap is pretty great, the tabbouleh is fantastic, sauces were yum and overall, the whole thing tasted great. As seems to be the trend with Mediterranean places, the hot sauce isn't that hot, simply adds some good flavor (fine by me!). I could do with a lot less hummus (the inside of the wrap was well coated), the pickles didn't really make sense though, and the turnip had a bit too much tart bite.
I'll definitely come back, but I'll just get the pita. The combo ended up being too much food for lunch for me and at $10.75 including drink, it was a bit much for a meal with no meat.
