I went during burrito week when they offered a vegan falafel burrito. The falafel had a nice texture, and the fresh lettuce and tomatoes made it well balanced. It came with several sauces, the main flavor though was garlic. So it was a nice meal, but the usual dishes seem expensive for what they are (maybe I am biased coming from Europe where this cuisine is available in wide variety as fast food).

Continuing my burrito week adventures, this was my pick of the day because their burrito on offer is vegan. I think it is usually called the falafel wrap, and it was good. I got it to take away and they used my tupperware, though the sauces came in separate plastic. The red sauce was particularly good and spicy. Their prices are usually too expensive, which is why I went during burrito week where all of the burritos around town are $9.

Really good middle eastern food. I got the falafel plate and dolma and both were delicious. And the staff were really friendly as well. Will be back!

This is the only place serving authentic shisha Alfakhir in Santa Barbara. They serve it in the back yard and they played Arabic music for us. Great place felt like home.

Door was open but nobody was home. We waited at the counter for 10 minutes, ringing the bell and no one ever came out to take our order.

Nice fire pits for hookah

We had a great time here. It's a little jewel in Santa Barbara. Honestly the town is kind of dead on a Weds evening but this place was open and Diego was super cool to hang out with at the bar.

I would have to rate this place a 1 star not because of the food but because they stole…..my best friends picture. Her name is Petra and she looks exactly like the picture in the front of the restaurant. She is sad but also happy she is now famous! So don’t take it down!

The lunch special here is the best. We tried the lamb wrap which comes with homemade chips and it was excellent! We even got to play a game of backgammon while waiting for the food to show up. Highly recommend!

super quick service and cozy atmosphere! we loved the falafel plate and hummus/pita appetizers — large sized portions! only one main option, but still amazing place for vegan eaters 🧆
