OH MY GOD!

I just had a falafel from here for lunch.. thought i'd give it a try since I AM THE BEAN and all, and AM HUMMUS for crying out loud.

The falafel was one of the most CRAPPY things i've ever eaten in my life.  The pattie was soggy, I actually threw one of the patties OUT.  The tahini tasted like PASTE and the hummus.. which I PAID 75 cents XTRA for, tasted like a mush of chickpeas.... hell give me a blender and I can make that crap too.

DO NOT waste MONEY.
Do NOT GO!

HORRIBLE.

--THe BEAN!

This is a chain of Greek style fast food.  We decided to try the one in Riverside.  I got the Chicken plat and my wife got the vegetarian plate.  We also tried the feta fries.  The food was ok defiantly nothing to write home about.  The chicken was a little dry, and everything had a little too much salt for my taste, of course I like my food to actually be flavored without salt.   I really don't get the feta fries though.  A crumbly cheese that falls off the fries as soon as you pick one up.  We had to smash the cheese and thus the fry just to get them to stay together.  The prices though were ridiculous for fast food.  The meal was like $25.00 for the two of us, $5 bucks more and we could have gone to a real restaurant, so we won't be going back

it's a chain, it's limited, it's not very good. however, here in rivertucky, the pickings are slim so it may be the only place to get falafel or dolmas, especially after babylon closed. it's also located in the riverside plaza so it's acceptable if you are grabbing a bite after a movie, especially because its competition is the likes of chipotle, cpk, or styx... the food was less that stellar but it was acceptably palatable.
