    The ambiance is not great nothing grand to speak of but the was amazing hot fresh chicken. This place must be busy during the week because we were the only ones there on a Saturday afternoon. This place needs support

    I went to a graduation in Cedar Falls, IA and stopped here on the way back home. This food was delicious and the owner was polite with fast service. It's a nice little hole in the wall but a gem. Clean and welcoming. I'll definitely visit when I go back to IA. Check it out! No problem parking, fast, and delicious.

    Rodney is the owner, operator, and chef. Everything is made to order--hot and fresh, quality ingredients. Shrimp po boy was outstanding. Order at the counter and food will be brought to you.

    I drove almost an hour to have my shawarmas here but when i reached they were out of halal chicken,…read moreso I would recommend calling them first and checking with them if they have the chicken available. Got the lamb shawarma and it was really good but was a little bit disappointed because I didn't get the chicken.

    We had been big fans of the food truck, we used to follow it around whenever possible. We were very…read moresad when it closed down. We saw that this had opened awhile ago, but have not had the opportunity to go up and give it a try. It was well worth the wait. We got both the chicken and the steak shawarma and gave each other half. The meat is rich with an amazingly deep flavor for something so simple. Add the bite of the pickles and both of these are superb sandwiches. The food truck had different sauces for each sandwich, that has changed. Just the one sauce now, but it is a lovely yogurt based bit of tastiness. We also got a side of falafel. Falafel is always hit and miss for me. This was a definite hit. Once again a wonderfully complex taste from something so simple. The wrap had a nice bit of crunch to it after being on the grill. This is not as long and involved as a lot of my reviews, but it doesn't need to be. It's a very small, simple menu, but oh my it is great. We will get back up there when we can, we hope that they will open a shop in Des Moines.

    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!

    Food tastes good but the portion was smaller than expected and not what I thought I was getting for…read morethe price. This could probably be fixed by showing the bowl sizes when you're ordering. Workers were nice! The look and feel weren't anything to write home about, but that's alright!
