Review


Middle eastern place with interesting menu. Nothing on menu marked GF. Talking with the folks behind the counter, the meats are GF. So the shawarma, Lamb, Kafta burger meat, gyro are in the house. Hummus is GF. Also GF are the falafel (taste amazing), and the fries are GF. The last two are fried in the fryer “on the left” where nothing with gluten goes. Then there’s the non GF “fryer on the right” where the chicken tenders, and baba ghanoush go (too bad it’s fried; the eggplant also gets grilled). The salads are GF unless it has fried chicken. The crispy Brussel sprouts are GF but you have to ask them to Grill and not Fry the sprouts. On Sundays, also on the GF list is the Shakshuka. The halloumi cheese is gluten-free. They have two gluten-free canned ciders. Nice outdoor covered seating area and some tables inside. Food is clearly fresh. Really nice people run this place
