My parents are From the Middle East so I grew up being super picky about falafel. I must say this place hit the spot and it was the perfect price can’t wait to come again! Although next time I’ll ask for extra pickles!

Owner is incredibly friendly and clearly has a close relationship with his staff (maybe family). The chicken platter is one of the best I've had in the city with some ingredients like turnips and basmati rice. Not to mention having white sauce and tahini. Great...Read More
