Incredible Falafels and Amazing Service!
My experience at this restaurant was absolutely fantastic! Hands down, the best falafels I've ever had. We also ordered the loaded fries and the burger, and both were incredible. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. The service was amazing too; the staff were such sweet, welcoming people who truly go out of their way to cater to your needs. We loved the numerous vegan and vegetarian options as well! We love this place and will definitely be coming back!

Absolutely Amazing Shawarma!
My experience at this restaurant was so, so, so good. The lamb Shawarma was my absolute jam, a true winner. The owner is fantastic and wonderfully nice. While the chicken Shawarma was good, the lamb is definitely the standout. Their spicy hummus was great and packed a punch with spice and kick. Even though I thought I ordered toum and it wasn't included, I wasn't mad because everything else was just so amazing. The falafel is phenomenal, perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and flavorful on the inside. I love supporting small businesses, especially amazing ones like this. Parking can be tricky, requiring some luck, but it's totally worth it. I'm absolutely going to come back and hope to try their kofta chili when available.

Mind-blowing Falafel Burger, but Pricey
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag, but ultimately positive due to the incredible food. The falafel burger was absolutely mind blowing – so good that I ordered a second one on my first visit! While the food is undeniably tasty, it is also very expensive. I dine-in and found the place to be a small joint with average seating ambience. Finding parking was very difficult. Despite the parking challenges and the high cost, I would definitely recommend trying it. I'd also like to request the owner to consider opening a branch in Irvine Spectrum Mall.

Full and Wanting More!
My first time dining in after a previous takeout experience. I left feeling full and, surprisingly, still wanting more. I will definitely be back 🇵🇸.

Delicious and Consistent Chicken Shawarma Bowl
My experience at the restaurant was really great! The chicken shawarma bowl tasted really fresh and was well balanced. They provided a generous portion of chicken, and the flavor was delicious. I've had it three times now, and they are consistently good. It's also a good healthy choice!
