I wasted my money!!! - Edit

The food I ordered was not good at all. I read the reviews before I went so I was excited about this restaurant. The restaurant is beautiful, but the falafel salad was not. They fried the falafel too much that they was burnt and inedible. I ordered hummus and pita bread. The hummus had no flavor or seasonings. They put herbs on the pita bread but I couldn't enjoy the pita because it was hard. Now when I say no flavor I'm not talking about salt. I don't use salt, but what about garlic or spices to flavor food. I know what falafel should taste like and that was not It. will not go back or recommend them to anyone!!!

Pros: Friendly staff

Cons: Expensive, Falafel was burnt and flavorless, Pita bread hard

Good but limited - Edit

I like that they have vegan options but the options are limited. For a meal, you can have falafel and that’s it. It was very good and came with a citrus and shaved fennel salad.
There are appetizers of hummus, muhummara, and Melitzanosalata. All of these dishes contain olive oil and the pita contains honey.
I loved the crudité platter. It contained fresh lettuce from Brick Street Farms, cucumber spears, carrots, and a small pepper.

Pros: Tasty, Great atmosphere eating outside

Cons: Not enough vegan main dishes , Too much oil even though it didn’t taste greasy

Best falafel in town - Edit

I love the falafel here, and they do a great dips like hummus, baba ganoush, and at least 3 others that are great but i can never pronounce. They have a falafel wrap, or you can add falafel to a salad at lunchtime, and a roasted eggplant dish at dinnertime. The wrap and salad are both great. The roasted eggplant dish is really bland. If I'm there at dinner time, I'll order a trio of dips with some falafel and tabouli instead. They also have great cocktails.

Pros: Great falafel, Good cocktails , Outdoor seating

Cons: Eggplant entree is bland

Vegan Greek food options! - Edit

I love the Mediterranean theme of this establishment. It really makes you feel like you're in Greece. Their outdoor patio is so beautiful and overlooks central avenue, you can also dine inside which is beautifully decorated with the blue evil eye. They have a separate cafe open during the day time before they open the restaurant in the evening for dinner. The cafe menu isn't that large and it's primarily small eats. They do not offer a lot for a vegan, but they do have the falafel pita which is honestly really really delicious. Their lavender lemonade is also delicious. I have not had anything from their dinner menu yet to review but I will be back! I'm giving a 4/5 simply because of the lack of vegan options and because it is pretty pricey for what you get

Pros: Delicious , Amazing decor , Great location

Cons: Expensive
