An owner-operated American-Lebanese counter spot where charbroiled kabobs and handmade falafel share billing with solid deli sandwiches and fresh-squeezed juices, all served in generous portions that regularly feed two.

The upstairs loft with jazz playing gives it more personality than the Vine Street storefront suggests, but this is still a come-for-the-food, not-the-scene kind of place.

Charbroiled Chicken Breast Kabob, Falafel Plate, Grilled Salmon Salad
What Makes it Special: American-Lebanese fusion deli where charbroiled kabobs and falafel share a menu with classic sandwiches and fresh-squeezed juices
