This establishment seems to be Egyptian owned, as the walls claim that Egyptians created bread, cupcakes and falafel. The service was fine, though the tables could have been cleaner. I appreciate that they allow you to substitute some of the rice portion for lettuce/spring mix although the spring mix was wet. They also offered both spicy and regular options for rice and chicken. I got spicy rice with spicy chicken, and for my toppings I got Mediterranean salad, hummus, and tzaziki. I didn't realize you could also get white sauce, green sauce, etc, so I probably wouldn't get tzaziki and get olives or something else next time. The chicken and rice combo was a bit overly spicy for me and upset my stomach slightly. I'd probably get regular for both the next time. I also got tiramisu which they recommended over all the other "cupcakes" which they claim (via the wall) is Egyptian. The tiramisu was surprisingly good. There was soft music that seems Arabic-speaking. They have fountain drinks as well as bottled beverages. They also include a service charge - it was like $0.42 for me. I don't regret stopping by, but I wish my stomach was more settled. I just came from a restorative yoga class and I was thoroughly at peace.

Well, this time we actually tried it. I'm a simple caveman - we've got a bowl with basmati rice, chicken AND lamb/beef gyro, tahini, and hummus. Hits the damn spot. Fountain drinks, combo options, cups for water, and bottled drinks. You go down the line, say what you want (like every fast casual these days), and end up at the register. Fast operation. Plenty of seating indoors.

They don't have falafel, but I highly recommend any of their vegetable sides. I got the 4 veggie plate and loved everything. They make amazing flatbread that is worth the trip alone. After lent, I still go back and like everything I've tried. They are extremely friendly. And whoever is at the counter will warmly welcome you. They have a pretty simple menu and tap to pay conveniently located on the counter. There is nothing in particular I would recommend as everything I've tried I'd order again. I'm catholic and would recommend the veggie plate during lent. I will say that the drink options are common and basic bottles in a refrigerator. Don't let the plain name in front fool you. This place is worth a try. I don't preorder and have never had a long wait. If you eat in, they offer you warm tea that is really appreciated during winter.

There is always a decent line and has been in the area for a while, so I finally decided to give this place a shot. I ordered the lamb over rice with salad and sauce (green,red, and white). Given the area, the price for the portion size was great. They got the food out pretty quick and the taste wasn't too bad. The lamb didn't taste gamey either. They included all the utensils and napkins in the to go bag. They definitely have a pretty smooth operation going on. Overall, not a bad lunch spot option for the area.

I ordered the Vibrant Vegan bowl with falafel, brown basmati rice, lentils, tabbouleh, hummus, pickled onions, cabbage slaw, and lemon garlic sauce. Every ingredient tasted fresh and intentional. The falafel had a perfect crisp exterior while staying soft and herbaceous inside, and the lemon garlic sauce tied everything together beautifully. As someone who loves Cava, this immediately gave me that same customizable Mediterranean experience -- but honestly, this bowl held its own. The vegetables were crisp, the portions generous, and everything looked just as good as it tasted. Even after taking it back to the hotel, it still ate incredibly well. The staff moved the line efficiently despite how busy it was, and the open kitchen concept added to the experience watching everything being prepared fresh. Definitely a spot worth the wait if you want something flavorful, fresh, and satisfying without feeling heavy.

A fast casual spot, you get to choose from a pre-set choice or build your own Mediterranean entree. Bowl, pita, or salad...with tons of topping and sauce options to choose from. They were a bit understaffed for the lunch rush, so it was a bit longer of a wait than it should have been, in my opinion. I built my own rice bowl on this visit, which included chicken, veggies, hummus, and a few other random goodies! It was super yummy and came served up with a side pita. My only critique was that the protein serving size was smaller than I expected for the price. Overall, a great, healthier option for lunch or dinner in the area!

Service is based on the owner who takes your order and then cooks it. There were two gals working when I went in having a spat behind the counter. Apparently one works next door and also at the restaurant, who was back in the restaurant to give the other gal a hard time. They didn't hide it and it was obvious they were not happy with each other, while having it out in the middle of the business. This was distracting as a customer and unprofessional. Plenty of Indian restaurants to go to; don't encourage me to go somewhere else because of a quarrel. As others have said, atmosphere is bland. Men's bathroom is clean but looks like a janitors closet. It's a place to try. Food is good. I recommend take out.
