Falafelove — Restaurant in Eureka

Had to knock it down a couple stars. The place is quaint and the waterfront patio is lovely but could use a few more umbrellas at the tables. I would say the service was mid but only because I do feel lied to with a smile when we had asked questions about the menu. Me and my husband both got kabob plates after asking if they offered lamb and being told that was lamb. It seems like a good deal when you first look at the menu but then when you get your plate it's kinda disappointing. Comes with 4 sides but realistically it's half portions of what should just be 2 sides and doesn't come with pita- that's extra and they try to upsell you to get "their traditional" zaatar pita. The zaatar pita was good so I'll give it that but really not worth being over $2. The kabobs also i wouldn't even call kabobs. They were what I can only assume was a mix of ground meats and spices shaped into what I will generously call nuggets. All in all if you are looking for authentic Mediterranean food- this is more inspired Mediterranean. Also we spent like $50 for 2 plates, 1 salt pita, 1 zaatar pita, and 2 canned drinks. It was not at all worth $50- we are from SoCal and we are used to authentic Mediterranean food being $50 when we get 2 plates and 1 drink and not only do we leave knowing that we ate the type of meat we ordered but we usually have leftovers enough for a 2nd meal each and wanting to return the next day. Needless to say I'm sure the owners of the restaurant won't care but we won't be returning.

Edit to add: i don't know what was in that "kabob" but I'm 8 months pregnant and can eat just about anything and everything right now no problem and be hungry a few hours later and 3 hours after my meal my stomach is still not settled. I didn't add it in my original review because I thought I just had usual indigestion and needed to let it digest but I still feel just...
