" My friends and I always come here when we're in Lubbock. The falafels are simply the best I've ever had! They’re crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

" I got the chance to eat here yesterday and I'm still thinking about the flavors. The combo plate is a must-try! Plenty of food, very tasty, but the service left something to be desired as it took a long time to get our food. However, once I tasted it, I knew it was worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)
