| - Made the trek from the Eastside to try the Hummus Factory since I had heard great things about it and boy, did it deliver.
The service was great, restaurant was clean and cozy. We used the Yelp checkin offer for the free hummus and now I'll never look at my store bought Sabra hummus the same way again. This hummus was so smooth and creamy, I've been dreaming about it since my visit. The hummus was served up with warm pita bread, fresh from the oven, and a perfect accompaniment. I've never seen pita the way they present it here: puffed up. It was eye catching.
We also tried some of the traditional Lebanese fare from the entree menu: kafta, frarej, and dolmas. All were delicious, except maybe too citrusy from all the lemon they use in the cooking, especially in the frarej. It was hard to focus on any other flavors that might have been present because their was so much lemon. For dessert, we tried the shabiet and rice pudding. The shabiet was pretty good, but if you're thinking a bout the rice pudding, just be warned that it's prepared with rose water and if you're not used to floral tastes, it might be too strong for you.
Overall, I was impressed and would definitely dine here again in the future.
