The sign says king of falafel. Well this guy needs to take over some other falafel kingdoms because he is more like the Emperor of Falafel!! A fresh chopped salad with falafel on top with tzatziki sauce, a delicious pita, a bowl of perfectly zesty rice, AND hummus? Yes please! The hummus was some of the best I've had.

The place is unassuming, the guy I believe was the owner (not 100 percent on that) was eager to please, and everything was clean! I have never been to the middle east but I cant help but think that if you went to your Aunt Noori's house on a Sunday afternnon, this is the meal you would get! If you find yourself in Corvallis and you want to meet the would be emperor of falafel, go on down...

Portions are very generous! I had to downsize to the falafel wrap because the plate is almost enough for two people. I’ve had a good conversation with the man at the counter. They sell stuff from overseas, so I plan to try the halava soon. I miss the food I had in Iraq, Kuwait, and Qatar, and this place fills the gap...
