" I decided to try the falafel wrap, which came highly recommended. It was decent, but I've had better elsewhere. The service was friendly enough, but I waited longer than expected for my food. I’m curious about their shawarma so might give that a go someday. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely fantastic experience! The owner is very friendly and passionate about his food and it shows! The shawarma was perfectly seasoned and generous with toppings.
