One of my absolute favorites in Shadyside. Their flying garbanzo is so hearty and filling that even my meat-loving boyfriend didn't miss out on the no-meatness. Flavorful hummus, roasted mushrooms and roasted red peppers on challah, my favorite sandwich bread! I also *heart* their barrel of pickles that are complimentary - man they are DELICIOUS. I LOVE that you can get a half or a full sandwich, many a day I've had to mix a 'flying garbanzo' with the 'its a bird thing'.
After 10 years, it's great to see that their menu is mostly the same. The veggie chili has changed (for the worse) over the years which is sad, it used to be the most amazing I had ever had, now it's very chipotle cumin (just overboard and canned looking).
They also serve beers, so it's perfect to just hang out there and have a deliciously large sandwich while watching some sports and sipping on a beer.
