One of my favorite lunch spots when I'm stranded in Oakland between classes. Lebanese-style falafel, which I prefer over other regional variations, and great platters -- I couldn't even finish mine. The guys working were really friendly, and had a long discussion with some other patrons who were trying to remember a particular Middle Eastern dish. They gave me extra pita bread for free. Not much in the way of ambiance, but a small, friendly, homey spot.
