Very good ‘Japanese’ style ramen and fried Dumplings. Maybe more a Korean-style of these, though it’s tasty, so not important. Yes, they have Mediterranean food, too. Easy access from Emory University and quick drive from the hospital.

Best falafel I’ve had maybe ever? Crispy on the outside, not dry, and amazing flavor. Really affordable for what you get. Be prepared to wait because there is often a line (it’s worth it). The sauce is just spicy enough and adds a perfect kick. Pro tip: order your sandwich and ask for hummus inside

We ordered a falafel and veggie dumplings (odd culinary variety they serve, but I guess it works). The dumplings were really good, fast served and came with spicy mayo. The falafel was also good, however it consisted of a pita with lettuce, chopped cucumbers, tomatoes, and falafel. Very dry and definitely missing the mandatory hummus and tahini that brings it all together, not to mention the other components often offered (fried eggplant, zhug, amba, cabbage… the works). When I asked I was given tahini in one of those dressing cups, which was very watery and not really any help. BUT although having only the base components, those components were pretty damn good! I loved the falafel balls, vegs were fresh and the pita was soft and heavenly (I’m tempted to ask where they get them). While I think there’s plenty of room for improvement, I’d definitely recommend this place to others.

A staple of Emory which never disappoints. Definitely a hidden gem which I have many memories of going to in undergrad. The couple working together are very kind as well.

There’s a reason this place stays busy during the semester. Simple menu of excellent food. Mixed sandwich (shawarma + falafel) w the spicy sauce is the best lunch you can buy for $6.99 in this economy.

The chicken shawarma pita sandwich was decent but not the greatest. Something seemed like it was missing. Compared to other places around the area like Pita Palace, I think the shawarma needed extra spice. The taste was a bit bland. I’m not sure if they make the pita bread there since it looked and tasted store bought. The place was busy so maybe it’s just my taste buds. But compared to other options in the area I may choose to go elsewhere when I’m in the mood for a pita sandwich. Bottom line, it was okay but not the best.

Its a cute little spot. They sell Japanese & Shawarma…Falafel etc. Its very small but I love the atmosphere. The Shawarma was a little dry & lacked flavor. The sauce was the only thing that gave it flavor. The Ramen was ok, nothing to brag about but the college kids seemed to love it! Overall it was cool.
