Some of the best falafel I have had. I recommend getting something with salad because they had a lot of options, & you could choose two with the sandwich. The tabouli was very fresh, & the quinoa salad was nice. For meat the Jerusalem mix was good too, & the fries were crispy. I recommend the tahini & spicy sauce, which wasnt very spicy anyways. The staff were kind & helpful, love the guy who did some fancy spins as he wrapped up our sandwiches.

I like the falafel & the sides but they can do better with bread. What they offer now is pita from supper market.
