Good food, good service, what more could you ask for? The chicken kabob was flavorful and they were very generous with the toppings. Paid about $15 for the pita wrap and it was huge, I couldn't finish it all but sure wanted to.
Hesam Abedini
The food was good! I liked their Falafel on Pita bread! The bread was good and their vegetables were fresh. I liked their sauces and the price was reasonable. The menu may be a little confusing but you can figure it out if you ask them to explain. The fries was OK, but not as good! A good Middle Eastern fast food!
