We’ve always heard great things about this spot and finally got around to trying it. Absolutely delicious food (some of the best babaganoush I’ve had!) and incredible customer service. They made a mistake on my order but quickly rectified it and went above and beyond to apologize for the error. This is definitely going on our ā€œgo toā€ list!

Editing this review. Your employees at the counter seriously need customer service training. I arrived at 12:30pm, there was a single (as in ONE) customer in the store and your employee tells me ā€œit’s going to be at least a 20 minute wait for food, i have online orders to do and customers already hereā€ (1). You prioritize four online orders over a customer standing right in front of you? It doesn’t and shouldn’t take 20 minutes to make a falafel sandwich. This came from him after he made me stand there waiting for a minute while he packaged sauce in containers as I stood right in front of him waiting for him to assist me. Yesterday I came with a friend and waited 10 minutes with her as the inefficient employees couldn’t move the person in front of us along. We wound up leaving yesterday as well. Now this experience today (obviously I left and went to Coda next door). Despite the food being good, It’s making it very difficult to argue to come back to the restaurant. Do better. בושה!

It's the combination of citrus for me in the hummus lemon extract and grapefruit something serious

The hummus chicken shawarma was absolutely amazing. The chicken was so well seasoned it made for an amazing combination with the hummus base that had actual chickpeas for a pleasant add of texture. Topped with amazing pickled mango sauce and lemongrass that adds the perfect zest to the dish I left beyond impressed. On top of that they had the perfect pita in texture and taste it was the best lunch I’ve had all week. I will be back again without a doubt!

Just like other people mentioned - their portions are getting skimpy.
This is the photo from 2023 of how their food used to look like, now the kufta patties are about 60% smaller and dry as hell because it's impossible to cook a good patty in such a tiny size. The same goes for chicken. I didn't take a picture of their recent portions because there wasn't much of it.
I understand that everything has gotten more expensive, but if they named a fair price for their services and delivered the same quality I would have accepted this. But now, receiving much less of what it used to be for a higher price feels like cheating, so I'm not returning.

Been coming here for a few years and the food is always tasty. Sad to give a 2 star but the portions have gotten so skimpy I find it hard to order. The labne, chicken Sharma, and snitzel are about half the size they used to be but with a price increase.
No longer feels like hospitality when you are still hungry.

Parking is tricky on the weekends. Small space, but there are a few tables; it seems like most people get it to go, and I saw one guy picking up party trays. Order at the counter. Bowl and sandwich options, I say stick with the falafel, which is the best thing on the menu. Not exactly a place to bring a date, but they play pretty cool music.
