I like this place. Is it great Middle Eastern food? Not really. But it has healthy options at a very fair price. I like coming here when I am near NYU. I would not go out of my way to come here though.
I see you. You see me. I'm forever walking past your storefront, rushing my @ss off to another bougey yoga class at Jivamukti. Impossible to stop in beforehand yet becomes out of mind later as I make my way to Whole Foods around the corner.
Stopped in a few days ago and it was all over for me, with daily visits ever since. You're all I think about falafel plate!! For good reasons too, since when have the words cheap, delicious aaaaand healthy ever really fit the description of any one restaurant?
It's entirely possible to hit 2 of the 3 but usually not all 3. For example, Lam Zhou dumplings and Halal Guys are cheap and delicious but I can't say that healthy perfectly describes them. On the other hand, healthy and cheap could easily hold true for the salads at Chopt and grocery stores obviously, but wouldn't totally fit the description of delicious unless I'm in zombie workout mode and have trained my brain to think so…yes I hypnotize myself for diet purposes! Anyways this basically leaves us with delicious and healthy, which brings to mind Eatily's Il Pesce and Masa but they are definitely not low cost affairs.
Whoosh! In comes The H&P Co. with their cheap, delicious and healthy falafel plate. $8.66 buys a humongo plate of hummus, different versions of baba g, spiced and assorted veggies along with 5 falafel balls and a thick pita. I honestly can't complain about the flavor of any items here. Nothing is too salty or lacking it, spicy when they say it's spicy but also just the right amount of spice like they read my mind and accommodated my palate somehow. I love the amount of food given and even the pita is ridiculously good. Smack yo mama good! No but don't.
Hooked on hummus, I'm on a Mediterranean kick now and happy to be off the pizza kick!
Diclaimer* for the 6ave location. For some odd reason the flavors are way better at the bway location which has a noticeably much better tasting hummus, ya it's weird.
I can only rate on behalf of the take out, which has been solid each time Ive taken it. The chicken taboon platter is top notch, with the grilled veggies and turkish salad being top notch. The hummus that comes on the side may be the top draw, as its smooth and savory even after waiting for delivery :).
Yum yum yum!
A filling, and healthy alternative, to your everyday meal. This place offers dine-in seating, or take-out options. The hummus here is very rich, creamy, and just the right amount of flavor.
The staff here is friendly and I love how they play hip-hop and R&B at this particular location. There are so many options to what you can add to your falafel or platter.
The Quick: Huge portions for takeout, good inexpensive Mediterranean/halal food, lots of pita!
The Details: When I'm trying to be semi healthy, this is my go to for take out. The platters are a ton of food and relatively low carb if you can resist the delicious fluffy pita. Highly recommend the eggplant side- so tasty!
The Damage: Platter to go ~ $11. Enough food for dinner. We usually split 2 bewtwwn 3 people
So delicious! They have a student discount so when you are checking out, make sure to tell them and show your school id. They have many choices to add to your food like quinoa, grilled veggies, and regular veggies. So many choices of hummus. I tried their original hummus and it was so good. I ate a falafel filled in a pita bread. It was easy to eat and tasted great. Their baklava was the best I ever had. Definitely coming back.
They give out free samples outside!
I have eaten a number of falafel sandwiches from here in the last several months. I know there are several locations but I have to say it is pretty quality. You can get wraps, salad, sandwich. It has veggie options as well as the meats. Get the nam garlic paste. I wish they had soup. (do they have it in the winter and i just haven't seen it)
This spot in particular is pretty cool. It's three restaurants in one. If you don't want hummus there's a vegan burger one step to the right, and shakes at the front. It's fast, but decent. Also, big plus is that there is a bathroom, and outlets everywhere! Good option as a regroup spot for the tourist or city visitor.
