The best falafel in Gainesville!!! I went here for lunch and had the shawarma platter. It was so delicious. The rice was so packed with flavor, the beef perfectly cooked and seasoned, the salad so fresh and nutritious, the falafel so perfect, and the sauces were so yummy. This will be in my regular rotation for sure. The proprietor, Ehab, really takes pride in his restaurant and really cares for the customer. You can... View all feedback.
An unforgettable experience. The vibes were just there and the food was delicious. I ate din-in at the small cozy place after a nearby appointment, and the food came out in 15 minutes, looking very pretty as well, check the photo. As of this review, the gyro platter was $14.99 before tip.But the part that made this unforgettable were the other people that day. There were plenty of Arab women with their husbands while I waited in line, and they spoke in Arabic to the owner who was the only employee that day. It 's always a good-sign when the locals are all there. After placing our orders we sat around in the restaurant and turned our chairs to each other, so we could discuss. Before I got the food, first I asked if anyone had been here before, and a woman told this restaurant is probably the best halal in the entire country! She said she was born and raised Saudi Arabia, and the food here rivals if not exceeds most of the places in Saudi! Her husband who is a war veteran told us the same. So I was licking my lips already. The discussion varied from there. I remember one of them claiming that Middle-Eastern cuisine tastes the best because is is the cuisine of the Creoles or the first humans. Another said that Arabia is becoming green again, lush with springs and palm trees like a millennia ago and the Euphrates drying out—a sign of the end-times. We closed with anti-war sentiment, especially in the Middle-Eastern regions. Some of the husbands were veterans so they had a lot to speak about, the PTSD, innocent casualties, destruction of culture on a vulnerable populace. An informative and intusing discussion to say the least.Oh yeah the food. Delicious, that is all.
We ordered our meal to our hotel and it was fresh and delicious! I forgot to take a picture of the food because it was that good.
We had their burgers, fries, wings, falafel, and hummus. Everything was delicious!
