    Wait...this is a grocery store with a kitchen area inside! Really wait, this is a meat market as well! I actually watched them cut up the meat that they are packaging in the store. They say that their chicken is grass fed and raised with no extra stuff in it, so I am looking forward to trying a chicken product from them. The place is surprisingly big inside and offer a huge variety of imported items. There are samples available throughout the store & a wide variety of items to serve, presumably, the Middle Eastern tummy! Plenty of imported goods are through the store which included drinks with Arabic writing on them. They sell mixed olives by the pound, which I saw several people excited about that. They also sell baklava and other types of candies that are common in the Middle East. I saw different types of imported lentils, rice and other goods that must be a true taste of home for those from that region. I am sure no one wants to here about that stuff though. I was really in the mood for a gyro, so I ordered a reasonably priced gyro with fries. Before I left with my to-go order, I was given a sample of hummus. This is the second best hummus that I have tasted. Read past reviews to see who I think is the first! Fries were fried well and seasoned well. They only gave me a slight handful, but I will not trip on that. The gyro itself had pretty presentation...was put together well...looked tasty...however you choose to say that it looked as though it should taste good! It was a good size, so I knew I would be content after eating it. The produce on the gyro was fresh and you could tell that my gyro was freshly made. I am not certain if the meat itself was seasoned to awesomeness, but I know the sauce they gave me to put on the gyro was yum mixed with I wished I had more of it! I enjoyed every bite of my gyro, and made sure to wipe the inside of the sauce container with my last bite of gyro. From the previous reviews, I need to try a chicken shawarwma (Not sure if that is spelled correctly) as well. I am looking forward to giving this business another try at impressing me. They are off to a good start.

    I have never been so impressed by a Gyro with Halal meat before!! Not only is their food tasty, it is also inexpensive. I ordered a Gyro with French fries. The meat, the onions, the tomatoes, the lettuce, and the sauce were SO amazing! All the vegetables were crisp and fresh; the meat was not salty at all! I loved the flavor and left the diner completely satisfied. The service is awesome! You are always helped whenever you need it. This is a restaurant and grocery store duo and it is SO YUMMY!! Definitely swing by!! It is a win-win-win.

    Tucked inside a strip mall, Alsafa is a grocery store that specializes in ethnic grocery food items. I specifically went here to try out both their gyro (or as the lady at the food counter called, "jai-ro") and falafels however. It probably took about 5-10 minutes for my food to be ready and my gyro came with a side of fries. Gyro was big and meat was juicy and excellent. I was disappointed that lady put the falafels in a pita wrap as I wanted it as a separate side instead of it being squished inside a wrap with sauce. The picture on Alsafa's website didn't show the falafels being put into a wrap :( It's ok though since falafels were still alright.

    This is what it looks like from the outside in the shopping center.

    They used to have a little café where they would sell Shawarma's and other Arabic Yummies.
