| - Spices!
Spices is simply a quality place to grab a bite. The owner Edgar is a good guy who takes pride in his business and he makes his food authentic, not pre-made or packaged. The meat and the seasonings and flavors are the real deal from real recipes, not some pre-purchased bulk food like in other restaurants. The pitas are fresh and they don't come from the same plain old pita company, they use fresher, higher quality pitas than any other mediterranean place in the in the valley. This is mediterranean food with an Israeli heart, and it's well made.
The falafels are good here, they are crispy and fresh with a taste of fresh herbs, not soggy and crumbly like in other places. The hummus is good, you can tell it's fresh and not out of a package! The gyro is superior to others, and the Shawarma is delicious. I highly recommend the lamb shawarma plate, the seasonings are awesome and the entire dish is tasty.
I support Spices over the other mediterranean places because of the better quality food, the cleaner and more kept up interior, and the good attitudes and friendly service. When you go to a place like Haji Baba or Pita Jungle, it's wam-bam, see you later, there isn't a neighborhood feel to it. Spices is definitely a friendly neighborhood place you can bring anyone to for a bite.
Seriously get the shawarma plate!
