| - I stopped in here at 11:30am on a weekday to grab some take-out lunch.
The ambiance of the place is sleek and clean with art and curtains that give it a slight middle eastern flair. It was completely empty when I arrived, but perhaps it was simply too early for the lunch rush.
I ordered the baba ghanouj and a falafel wrap, both $6. The baba came with TONS of pita bread -- a whole generous bag full of it! I definitely only used up half of the pita bread for the dip. I feel like $6 is not cheap for a dip, but the portion you get plus the amount of pita that comes with it makes it an okay deal (plus, it was pretty tasty).
The falafel nuggets in the wrap were quite yummy, nicely spiced with good balance in flavor. They were soft (not crispy) but not soggy. I did, however, specify that I didn't want a pickle in my wrap and they included one anyway. The wrap is also a generous portion and comes with a side of fries. The fries were utterly forgettable, and because the portions of everything else were so big, I didn't even eat them. Overall, though, even if the falafel sandwich didn't come with fries at all, it's still a pretty good deal for the price.
The lady working the desk was super nice. And, in general, I liked the food here. I just wasn't WOWed by it, and while it's a pretty economical choice for lunch, the entrees are definitely pricier! I would consider ordering from here again for lunch and trying some other dishes.
