Great outdoor seating, friendly service, and delicious fries! I overheard another customer say "this is the best shawarma I've ever had." Definitely stop in to try it!

This is a little hole in the wall place at Pike's place market. We wanted a quick lunch and we came upon this place and it smelled amazing. The guy who owns it is a one man show and his food is quick, fresh, flavorful and abundant! I had a falafel sandwich which was delicious, y son had the Shawarma platter and it was amazing. Onions and tomatoes are caramel iced on the griddle and served on top of tender marinated beef, yellow rice, hummus and a green salad is also on the plate and then it is garnished with 3 sauces. We were in Seattle for 4 days and we ate there 3 of

This was amazing in quality and taste a little on spicy side but this food was to die for while visiting Seattle

A gem of a hole-in-the-wall! Incredibly delicious food and great portions. The shawarma in particular was my favorite. Fast and friendly service, too. Definitely recommend stopping in for delicious Mediterranean food whenever you're down by Pike Place Market.

Ohmygosh, the chicken shawarma is AMAZING. They use onions and red cabbage in it and it is delicious. The shop is a tiny little space near Pike's Market, with a few chairs and tables out on the sidewalk. There is a three-stool bar inside as well. The cashier was also the chef, and he paid attention to what we wanted as we talked about it. Very nice. We also had the fries, and they were delish.

Located hilariously in front of the sex shop, we had a great meal and a great time people watching. The falafel was delicious, the hummus was amazing! Huge portion sizes, and you can tell it’s all fresh. 10/10!

I love the falafels here, one of my favorite spots to eat. I grab a delicious falafel and beverage and have a seat and watch the fake parking attendant across the street scamming tourists parking by convincing them he is the attendant. Seattle has become a lot like nyc that way.

Falafel spot in Pike Place! It's a tiny restaurant without much seating. The service is friendly and everything is made to order in front of you. The price is a bit steeper than other Mediterranean places because of its location, and the chicken shawarma falafel sandwich I got was good and well seasoned, but didn't blow me away.

Stumbled upon this place, and pleasantly surprised how great the food was. Ordered the chicken shawarma plate. It has great flavor and a large pita. Small place inside but there are a few seats outside if you want to eat (I took mine to go)
