A Messy Sandwich Situation

My sister and I are suckers for anything falafel-y, so we headed out to this eatery on the northside. They have all the staples, like hummus and very strong coffee. They also have a wine & beer that can be “delivered to your table” from a place close by (skirting a liquor license). Every dirty table was immediately cleared and re-set by the man working, who was extremely pleasant and chatty. When we asked for the check, he said, “Really? Are you sure you want to go?”

Dishes I tried:

Several falafel stuffed into a pita already overcrowded with lettuce, onions, tomato, and tons of tahini sauce. I ordered a side of hummus just in case, but there was no need; I was kept busy just trying to get everything into my mouth.

Came with lettuce, weirdly enough, and the iceburgy kind, too. But the (very authentic) blocks of Feta cheese were yummy. My sister said she wouldn’t order it again, though.

Falafel, hummus and baba...

Finally got a chance to try this out after hearing about it from a number of people. The food is good, cheap and its BYOB. Service was a bit slow, but it wasn’t an issue since there was wine on the table.

The pitas were soft and didn’t crack open like other places. Parking is a bit annoying – just beware.
