We love a good sabich & were just in the mood for one. I made the mistake of getting it in a hurry though & tried to eat it on the go. That was a bad idea. This is one of the messiest meals I've ever had. A mixture of eggplant, sauces, egg & spices make this both so messy & so good. The only thing I would change is perhaps a little less egg & more of something to add a crunch like a vinaigrette cabbage or something that mixes it up. Overall a great dish though. The staff was very friendly & it was all pretty quick too.

The chicken wrap tasted excellent, the meat was very tender, & the kitchen looked very clean overall. For a fast-food price, it was surprising to see such nice plating. The presentation & the overall environment made the meal feel elegant, clean, & comfortable.

J'étais un peu retissante en prenant l'assiette falafels, parce que je ne suis pas une grande fan, mais rien à voir avec les falafels que vous auriez pu manger ailleurs! Très savoureux, manger chez Tesfa c'est comme voyager au Liban sans réellement avoir voyagé! 10/10
