Love Oasis. They are a staple of Iowa city for high quality Mediterranean food. Their falafel is…read moredelicious and they never fall short. If you live in Iowa City and haven't been to Oasis Falafel yet, you're seriously missing out. This place has been around for years, and for good reason--it's the kind of spot you keep coming back to because it's just that good. What to Order The falafel pita: Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and packed with fresh ingredients. It's my go-to, and I always get the full pita (worth it for the leftovers). The hummus: Easily the best hummus I've ever had. Smooth, flavorful, and ridiculously addicting. The fact that I can buy it at local grocery stores is dangerous in the best way. The hot sauce: If you like a little kick, this will take everything up a notch. A must-try! Things to Know Before You Go Seating is limited, so if you're coming with a group, it's better for takeout. Parking can be tricky--street parking only, but totally worth it. Order ahead if you're in a hurry--they can get busy during peak hours! Their grocery store hummus is a lifesaver--stock up when you can. There's something about Oasis that just makes you happy. The food is fresh, the flavors are incredible, and every visit feels like a little win. Whether you're a longtime fan or trying it for the first time, you're in for something special. Can't wait to come back!

The platters come with choice of protein, rice, pita, and toppings. I got the sandwich with chicken and honey sriracha falafel. It comes with choice of toppings and white sauce. I also got an order of fries. It was all very good and fresh as they mostly make to order. Warning: the hot sauce packet they include is very hot! They do have a couple tables if you want to eat in, but it is mostly designed for takeout. You may need to wait in line a bit as the food is made as well. Overall, it's a nice addition to the other food options in the area.

It's an order and sit, like a fast food setup. Plenty of table and top seats make for a small, cozy vibe tucked into the heart of downturn. I added tahini sauce and substituted Taziki for garlic as mix up. The seasoned rice was almost the best thing about the meal, and I'm not a rice person. So much better than the sometimes bland side dish to an entree you taste a lot. The salad was fresh with quality lettuce, veggies, large chunks of feta and hearty deli fresh olives. The garlic sauce stood out... tahini sauce was decent. The gyro meat was seasoned, cooked tender and came piping hot, topped in tatzhiki. The pita bread was fresh and tasty to dip or make mini gyro tacos. Super friendly service from nice kids.

This was my birthday dinner & I starved all day so I could enjoy this meal to the full extent & WOW was it worth it! The scenery is quiet, I also was the last client of the day, but they were kind & did not try to run us out of there. They were also very accommodating to my young & tired 3 year old child. The food was so good omggg delicious! My husband is an Omni & I did not tell him it was a vegan place bc I thought he would become annoyed that he may god forbid have to go to a dinner without biting into a mooing cow... He WAS NOT annoyed & enjoyed his soup du jour A LOT in fact he even said he'd go back there! [I make vegan food at home but he prefers meat at restaurants] so that's pretty huge.

I will have to try the veggie only versions.... if it is 1/2 as good as the gyro it still wIll be a winner! this place is inside the pen/jeff BP gas station so there are choices of chips and drinks for an extra cost. this is a to go order place.
