| - I've noticed this place multiple times when I've had a day off and have gone to Kabob House across the way for a falafel. But, today, I finally decided to give Pure and Supreme a shot, and I am SO glad I did.
For the most part, I am a vegetarian, and like Jessica I. said- it's nice to have a flavorful and nutritious meal without the overuse of meat substitutes!
I talked to the sweet lady at the counter, Amira (I'm sure I butchered the spelling), for a bit when I first got there about the different items on the menu. I went around 1:30pm and there wasn't a rush and it wasn't chaotic or disorganized like one of the reviews mentioned. So, I must've picked a good time. After hearing about a few dishes, I settled on the Vegan Cheese Steak Gyro - Amira said that a lot of the regulars tend to order this every time (tho she's not sure if they just enjoyed it the first time and haven't tried anything else or if it truly is the most popular item). I was told it would be about 7-8 minutes since they make it from scratch, which I was MORE than okay with! A few minutes later, she asked if I wanted to sample their red beans and rice while I waited - of course I said yes, expecting a small sample. She prepared a full bowl of their red beans and rice, complete with cauliflower and some greens on top. It was SO delicious and hearty! As they packed my meal, they gave me a corn muffin as well (delicious, soft, wonderful).
The gyro was phenomenal. Similar to Mary F., I have NO idea what the protein part of the Gyro was made of, but what I do know is that it was DAMN delicious!! Super flavorful with lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, and grilled peppers and onions on top. The vegan cheese was also amazing! I always have said I could never be vegan b/c I love cheese (and ice cream) way too much, but I didn't feel like I was missing anything in this meal!
For all of this food, I paid 7 dollars. Super cheap for a super filling and delicious meal (I have some leftovers for later, still).
I'll definitely be back to try some more things on the menu when I have days off!! I was also told that in about 2 weeks they are changing some of the menu and adding breakfast - they are going to start opening at 8am.
