| - My boyfriend has been trying to get me to try this place forever now...so I finally gave in and we went to lunch here last week. I wish I had given in a lot sooner, because I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was.
When looking at the menu and knowing this is a chain (local, but still a chain) I didn't really have high expectations. Well I am glad to say that I was wrong.
I ordered a hummus which came with a side of pita. The pita was your average store bought tasting pita, it was fresh, not dried out like you get at some places. The hummus was okay, it was kind of plain tasting but still pretty decent. After a few boring bites the server asked if I would like some hot sauce, so I said sure (never had hot sauce with my hummus but thought it might add some flavor). I absolutely loved the hot sauce. It was so delicious. It tasted like no other hot sauce I have ever had before, my guess is that they make it themselves which is a huge plus. It had a vinegary flavor with the perfect amount of spice, not too hot not too mild. I couldn't get enough of it.
When our main meal came out, we both ordered the rolled Chicken Shawarma, I just had to get more of that hot sauce. The shawarma was good enough on its own, but like I said the hot sauce was delicious...and only made the Shawarma better. So about the Shawarma, it consisted of marinated char-grilled chicken with tomato and onion topped with a Tahini Yogurt dressing all rolled up in a toasted pita. In my opinion the serving size is enough for two meals especially if you have an app. The chicken cooked to perfection, the pita perfectly toasted all of that with the Tahini dressing, everything just went together amazingly well.
The only complaints I have is when I took the other half of my pita home and ate it hours later, one side of the pita was a little tough (hard) to bite through...so perhaps it doesn't travel well. My other complaint is that when the server asked me if I wanted hot sauce, I thought it was free. Well I guess only the first one was free, because when I got the check I was charged for the second. It was only .65 cent not a big deal, but I think she should have told me there was a charge for it, especially since she was the one who offered it in the first place.
Fortunately these complaints are hardly enough to keep me from going back. The food was just that good.
The service was quick and friendly, which is nice when you're on a lunch break and need to get back to work. The prices were reasonable. Two shawarmas, two sodas and hummus came to about $30.00 (with tip).
