Best hummus in Miami, yummy falafel, chicken. Everything is delicious! I've been coming here for 10+ years, since their previous location and have always been happy with their delicious food and friendliness.

Decent food for on-campus dining at FIU in the GC building. I recommend the falafel wrap, and ask for half hummus and half babaganoush for the wrap. The grape leaves are good as well. You can request that they add spicy sauce in the wrap to add some heat.

Almazar is a really good option on campus if you're looking for something less processed, healthier to eat. I love getting the chicken kabob platter w/salad & hummus. Recommend if you're looking for something besides the crap most places on campus serve.

Literally everything here is great. This is not a joke, I have tried almost everything on the menu and it's straight fire . The falafel and kibbeh can use more sauce on the side but other than that, it's my favorite place on campus. Oh and the guys there are cool. They may seem kinda quiet but that's just how they are. I vibe with em :)10/10 would go again

This place is the place to go for a quick high protein meal. I always get the chicken sandwich which comes out to be $7 and it is the perfect portion that will leave you feeling satisfied but not sluggish. They are very quick with making ur order so there's barely any lines unlike the other places in the study union.

Asked for a falafel sandwich. The gentleman I believe named Amman prepared the sandwich with a major surly attitude. Slapped the pita bread on the counter and smashed the three falafel in the pita breadDid not ask what I wanted in my falafel just started throwing everything in pita bread. Good thing I wanted all the items. When I went to pay I asked for a glass of water the lady behind the register said she had water but no cup and for me to go to Chili'sThe falafel was not freshly prepared and was sitting in a warming tray. Lukewarm and dry. Would not return because of service and food.

Pros: You can truly call this place fast food, everything is pre cooked and they assemble their dishes with a quick swiftness, perfect if you have to rush back to class or work. I had the falafel, the tabouli salad, and the yogurt salad. The falafel was delicious, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, the flavor was perfect, I very much enjoyed the coriander. The salads also had good flavor.Cons: The yogurt salad was a little watery for my taste, but the flavor was delicious. I prefer a thicker yogurt salad. The tabouli was also a little too oily for my taste, but you can't negate the great flavor.Will return while on campus.

This is my go-to food place on campus! Try their baklava, they're good without being overly sweet like in some other places

Pretty good! I always go for the shawarma sandwich, great alternative to other food on campus. Always fresh and fast.

I am giving this rating based on the fact that this is campus food, and in comparison to most options on campus, this is one of the better places to go. I frequent FIU for work, and it's always a struggle when it comes to lunchtime because I am a vegetarian, and I don't eat fast food. With that stated, I stick to my 3 items here and am always satisfied. I happen to like their lentil soup, and I always ask for the pita chips with it. That's a little secret that I didn't know about until I saw someone else ask for them, as they don't display the chips on the menu. Their hummus isn't bad, although the pita bread could use some improvement. I've also had the falafel sandwich (pita wrap) many times which is pretty good as well. The guys who run the place are always friendly and quick. Again, when you are eating on campus you have to lower your standards a bit, but if you aren't a fan of Burger King, pollo tropical, Subway, and the other usual fast food chains, this might be a better option for you.
