The portions were large and the prices were low. There was also a huge salad bar and a little market area to purchase things like pomegranate molasses. There were only... More

Stopped in for a quick bite while in the area and really enjoyed my falafel...spiced just right and perfectly cooked. Had they been open while I was taking the Blue Line back to O'Hare I would have went out of my way to stop off at Damen to grab another for the flight home. It was that good! More

Love this place. I hope their formula is working 'cause I'll be back, repeatedly, and I'm an out-of-towner. More
