Maybe I ordered the wrong dish. The pitas are packed so you aren?t getting a whole lot of bread. In my opinion, the cauliflower pita lacked seasoning. It tasted...

Food is SO GOOD but I wish there was more of it for the price, or at least one or two more options for sides. When I visited last, the only side option was a cu...

Excellent service. Delicious hummus. Real pita. The flavors of the hummus can be enhanced a bit (doesn't taste the most fresh) and the pita can be more fluffy,...

The spice-crusted eggplant pita is a perfect 10 out of 10. The eggplant is either grilled or pan-fried (without any crust or breading), and it is warm and delic...
