Why give five stars to a falafel cart? Because they make the best falafel of any food cart I've…read morebeen to. Most use primarily dried ingredients (think falafel mixes that you can buy in bulk at most grocery stores). With dried falafel - dried chick peas, dried herbs, dried garlic - the taste ends up pretty flat. At the very appropriately named Fresh Falafel, the fresh herbs, chick peas, garlic and spices combine to create a bright and well-textured basis for gyros and wraps. Oh, and because they are friendly, fast and in my neighborhood. I'm told their kafta is pretty killer, too.

Scrumptious food, quick service and cozy bench or bar seating…read more I tried almost everything vegetarian from the menu. The entire ordered was fingerpicking good including those fries. We thought we ordered so much and then we went back for more. One may find portion sizes are little for their price but their flavors are top-notch. I would say it's a great spot to get flavorful Mediterranean food. Though I wish they had more seating area. However, the food is extremely good and is worth it. If you haven't already, head there to try them and you wouldn't be disappointed.

It did seem like a busy day for them as the order took long, but the staff were really nice and apologetic. This is located in the back of PSU, near the field. There is street parking around the corner - the parking lot is for PSU use. The food was average for me. The beef had a good char and the sauce added some great flavor. I did feel like the beef and plate itself ate slightly sweet for me. Maybe it was sumac? I liked the onion slices, but feel like the side of pickled vegetables added too much to the plate for me.

Great price, decent sized Shawarmas, a little off ratio with the fries and protein though. I wished…read morethere were just a bit more fries and pickles. There was a lottttt of sauce, quite overpowering. However being located on/near the college campus, I feel it could still be a hit. Especially on late nights. It's the only food joint that I saw in the area. No seating strictly for them since it's a food truck but there are nearby areas you could sit. Parking nearby, not sure how strictly enforced it is though as it's again, on/near campus.. The service was a little slow in my opinion while they did not seem busy. Not sure that I'd return but it was worth the try!

Each dish is thoughtfully created with unique ingredients that Keep you coming back for every bite. They recommend getting a number of different dishes and sharing with your party. It was a busy friday night and they were pretty full but we timed it perfectly and only had to wait 10 mins before sitting at the bar. We ordered the Melon salad, hummus, calamari, hangar steak, chard cabbage, corn and sesame / chocolate ice cream for dessert. Standout dishes were the hangar steak as it was cooked perfectly and the sauce with it was amazing. The corn was also super flavorful!! It felt a bit smaller than their other restaurants but it still had a very cool vibe to it. Kyle took great care of us throughout the evening - we will definitely be back!

We tried their falafels, eggplant babaganush, lamb hummus; chicken kebabs; seasonal melon salad, salmon and chocolate pistachio icecream. the melon salad was refreshing. The pita's are very tasty. The chocolate pistachio seemed like chocolate icecream with pistachios which was okay, they could give a inhouse speciality there. Kebabs were soft, the salmon along with the plating and the sauce and veggies was good. The drinks were great too! The old aged whiskey was perfect. Ambiance is cozy, not too big.. great for groups or dates.

The owner hand prepares all ingredients from scratch and make sure everything is seasoned perfectly. Every piece of lettuce, rice, French fries, all seasoned like a pro. The preparation on his chicken dishes is where he shines in my opinion. If you want to get a light lunch try the chicken shawarma over salad. Perfect for mid day. Lastly, value.

First, I wanted to note that while the menu shows pictures of fries, the fries are actually jojos! They are yummy but just know they do not serve traditional fries. I got the beef arabi and would rate it 4/5! The meat and jojos were pretty good! I would prefer a little more tzatziki or garlic sauce inside of the wrap but overall yummy! It was more than enough for lunch and I ended up reheating it for a full lunch the next day too. The jojos weren't as good reheated but the wrap was still yummy. The lamb over fries was 4.5/5! The sauces were good, as well as the jojos. The meat was solid but felt like it was a little light for the price. Omar's is a bit pricy but the food is good!

But the atmosphere is friendly, the service is great, and I am convinced this place is genius. My burger was probably the best I have had, ever, across countries, grills, and more. The patties were well seasoned and the toppings were amazingly fresh and spot on. Tomato, lettuce, red onion, bacon, cheese and all in the right proportions. It was a masterpiece! The fries were also perfect. Golden brown and crispy without being over cooked. Perfect saltiness where you could not stop eating. Just a great meal that was super well priced for amazing food. I was not hungry when done. It is like paying cheaper than fast food prices for fresh, cooked to order food (because as a market everything is made to order)!! This is a goldmine and wish I lived next door and was not just visiting.

It gave me food poisoning that laid me out for two days. :-( Left a message with one of the employees for the manager - I'm hoping they'll refund promptly. EDIT: To the business's credit, the manager called me back promptly, despite it being a weekend. He was very apologetic, gave no issues about a refund, and seemed genuinely interested in what could've caused the issue with his food. In my view, bad things can happen to any business, it's how they handle it that matters most. Bumping my rating accordingly.
