I got a falafel pita with the green and red (spicy) falafel and topped it with tahini, s’rug and whipped garlic. The falafel and sauces were very good, especially the red falafel. But the sandwich was only just Ok—all the falafel was on top with other fillings all on the bottom. The pickled cabbage was weirdly sweet and the hummus was pretty bland. Once I got past the falafel, it ran out of flavor. I might come back for the spicy falafel but not sure I would go for the sandwich...

Taim used to be vegetarian, but no longer is. I had their falafel pita today; as always, it is very good. However, this branch is not as pleasant as their other branches: it is very cramped, with only uncomfortable stools for seating and eating, no restrooms for customers, and because it is so tiny, when they cook chicken, the odor fills the room.

I gave this place 3 stars because while the food is great they gave up being kosher which really sucks because it alienated a large client base including me. Also in terms of service I didn't like how they would stop making fries earlier than closing.
