Sila’s #2 brings a newer, build-your-own Mediterranean format to Madison Street, with customizable bowls, wraps, and plates that skew protein- and veg-forward. It functions as a healthier-feeling Loop lunch option where you can dial in spice, grains, and toppings without losing the comfort of shawarma and dips.
Must-Try Dishes:
Chicken shawarma plate, Hangover sandwich, Falafel wrap with baba ghanoush
What makes it special: A modern counter-service Mediterranean spot where you can build substantial bowls and wraps with shawarma, grilled veggies, and house dips instead of defaulting to salad chains.

Roti

A fast-casual Mediterranean bowl-and-pita stop that wins on speed, customization, and lunch-hour reliability. It’s best when you keep the build tight—one protein, a clean sauce strategy, and a short topping list—so flavors stay distinct instead of muddy.
Must-Try Dishes:
Chicken Roti & Tahini Pita, Classic Falafel Street Pita, Harissa Chicken Bowl
What makes it special: Fast Mediterranean bowls and pitas with build-your-own control.
