Sadly my most recent experience with Chickpeas wasn't near as enjoyable as my prior one. The falafel I ordered did not taste fresh, nor did it have the texture of fresh falafel--it tasted like something that came out of a package as opposed to something that was made in-house. Very disappointing. The shawarma was also not as tasty as it was last time; the lamb had a bit of an odd taste to it, the chicken was more palatable. But both also tasted too salty, once again like they were not using fresh ingredients. I'll give them 3 as an average of the initial 5 star experience and this 1 star experience, but I will probably look to other restaurants, particularly for falafel.
