"I absolutely love this place and the food is delicious, but the price is too high. I would eat here so much more often if it was a little more affordable. Just a wrap and garlic sauce is $15. Most other fast options have full meals with drinks for $10-$12. Most restaurants have swarma meals for less than $15 for a full meal. The owner is super nice too, it's just too pricey for what it is."
