    The BEST falafel! The Best SHAWARMA! I always get the Mcdougal, which is the shawarma with falafel in thd pita. Ibby, Mahmouns son, has his own restaurant in Jersey City. I used to order it this way, and he would kind of look at me funny, but now its a permanent menu item! The falafel is moist, aromatic, and perfect! The lamb is the Jam! The tahini sauce really takes this dish to a higher level! Portions are good for 10 bucks! The atmosphere could improve. The music is nice, a lot of Lebanese songs, upbeat stuff. I miss the fruit juices that were available in J.C and NYC ...used to be able to get a mango or pear juice. The people are nice! I just think the walls could be better decorated. The place was very clean, as usual. The baklava for dessert is too expensive, but delicious! Just have to go there! And enjoy!
