The best falafel I’ve ever had. My wife finished nine out of 12 of these in less than five minutes driving away from the store… We turned around in order two dozen more. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere is no frills but all delicious

I really adore the family that runs this little operation. As much as they bear the aura of *nonchalant-no-nonsense-straightforward*, they are actually very nice (and sometimes quite funny) folk. I recall one conversation the lady was having with an obvious regular over the phone. She had asked him several times what they wanted to order…I could tell that they had probably ate the whole menu at this point but couldn’t decide in the moment. A few minutes later, I heard her say in an exasperated voice, “Oh, yoooooouuuuuu *KILL* meeeeeeee, please tell me what you want.” (Note too that she says this in a particular sarcastic accent that literally made me absolutely LAUGH deep inside.

You will not find more delicious falafel anywhere else no matter how hard you try. Their recepe is so unique and flavorful that it's capable of teleporting you to the middle east for a few minutes. Please do yourself a favor and order one right now! The rest of their menu is also very impressive, however, as rule of thumb, first try the dish that's in the name.

★★★★★ 5.0 John Ohanian · Mar 2022

Ducked into this little corner spot in the heart of Watertown's Armenian community for a bite and was not disappointed in the least. The falafel wrap was packed with fresh, delicious vegetables and pickled turnips and the falafel itself was fresh and nicely seasoned. The lentil soup tasted just like my grandmother's! Well worth a stop for a quick bite or takeout.

We ordered take out of lamb kabob wrap. Very tasty, ample pieces of lamb in an entire pita wrap with fresh lettuce, tomatoes and hummus. Excellent bargain!
