This new fast-casual spot just opened in Chelsea. Freshly baked pitas or hand-stretched laffa bread are vehicles for hummus, vegetables, salad and taboon chicken. There is also beer and free Wi-Fi. Read more

Get a laffa, fill it w/ schwarma and some of their delicious toppings and you'll feel like you've traveled around the world and discovered a delicious Mediterranean burrito.

The falafel is delicious! I rarely eat vegetarian and I think it's the best thing on their menu. Also, the portions are huge!

Unbelievable high quality for the price. Get a platter with chicken, spicy Moroccan beans, hummus and all the veggies they offer. Make sure to get Shug on the hummus for heat

A great quick lunch place. The bowl is a pretty great deal for under $10, and you can top it with a big selection of toppings - pickles and carrots #ftw.

The hummus is awesome. Great spot that never disappoints. Try the green chimchurri sauce not too spicy not too mild

The Pita you can get here is stuffed to the maximum and therefore a challenge to eat, but it's delicious.

The bhabaganoush here is among the best I've ever had. Great selection for vegetarians - get the falafel bowl! Tons of food for 7 bucks!

Basically a Mediterranean Chipotle, recommend the shwarma platter with fried eggplant, hummus and Israeli salad

I have to give credit where it's due. This is good stuff. But the Israeli couscous is not Israeli, nor is it couscous. It's ARABIC maftool. And I promise it's yummy.

"$4.95 for a falafel sandwich, choice of humus, one "Fill It” topping – more complex salads, rice, tabuleh etc., one sauce, and unlimited “Top It’s” – your typical lettuce, tomato, pickle fair. Read more

Everything here is amazing and fresh, lots of choices! But if you're indecisive try not to come during lunch and hold up the line asking about every item!

Hummus with falafel and two pitawas were less than $6. That's cheaper than a food truck, tastes better, and you can sit inside!

I’ll admit I mainly come here to nab a couple free pieces of the cinnamon-toasted pita at the register.

Everything here is surprisingly solid. But don't go too crazy. It's easy to order too much or to end up with a bunch of food that doesn't really go together.

Go for the "laffa"sandwich instead of the pita if you're hungry. It's like a middle-eastern burrito.
