The turkey and Swiss on rye was ok...the bread was kind of the kids lunch variety rather than the baked sliced loaf most NY delis have...kind of skimpy sized sandwich for the price (turkey is not cooked in house), but they do it with proper spicy brown and Swiss. The Matzoh Ball soup is worth three stars alone.

Loaded with fresh colorful ingredients . Remember. You eat with your eyes first! I got the toppings on the side. They included Asian soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, & house made spicy mayo. The combination added the perfect flavor to the dish. I also purchased a bottle of their house made Avacado lime dipping sauce and already tried it on chicken. Very tasty! Avenue 29 concentrates on plant based food with many vegan and vegetarian options but also offers items like chicken and seafood. Bonus. The owner, Nick (along with his wife), was super friendly and willing to talk about his business . Definitely will ge back to check out the rest of his menu. 2024-9

Puts a smile on everyone's face, I promise you! Paula's donuts are much larger than most places in town. So large, they look heavy. You don't even need to eat a whole one to reach your maximum sugar intake for the day but dang, they sure are deeeeelicious! I always pickup a honey glazed donut. If that was the only donut available in the world, I would be totally happy with that and never complain. It's perfection. Thick, fluffy, soft, sugary goodness. Go home, mic it for 10 secs and eat slowly with a tall glass of cold milk. Paula's has donut holes, a variety of donuts, the best Bavarian Crème donut, I've ever had in my life, they have some pastries, bagels, breakfast/lunch sandwiches (which I do very much enjoy) and coffee! They also have a HUGE donut that I've ordered for birthdays and the Super Bowl, you create it the way you want, put on a cute plate and serve (no one will miss the cake/cupcakes). This location has ample parking, a decent size seating/dining area, well lit with plenty of sunlight coming through the windows so you can sit and contemplate why you're eating so many donuts and how to lose weight.

It came with rice and salad with your choice of toppings and a ton of small sauces. All the sauces are delicious, especially the Tzatziki.The meats were tender with some crispy edges that gave a nice texture to each bite. I also ordered a tikka chicken sandwich with lemon pepper fries, a 4 pk of falafel with hummus, a mango Lassi and extra pita. I enjoyed it all. The chicken was literally pieces of thigh meat marinated and grilled with your choice of toppings and a special sauce. The chicken was extremely tender and flacorful. I've never had lemon pepper seasoning on my fries but i certainly will now. Yum. The falafel wasnt overly dry and had good flavor along with the hummus. The mango Lassi was tart yet sweet and helps you to digest everything! I will 100% order from here again!

My partner ordered for us saying it's going to be a great lunch, and it was. He tried this place before. The large option was a perfect size for two. It's one of those restaurants where the best way to order is through their website. Or, just look at what they offer and which combo fits your taste buds the best. It would speed up the order process as well (at least for me;). I am not someone who can evaluate Middle Eastern cuisine from extensive experience or frequent consumption, but you should definitely visit Papa's Halal Gyro. It's truly worth it. Then judge for yourself. Yes, the garlic sauce is very intense but delicious. Just don't have it before a business meeting or if you are planning to have a rendezvous soon after your meal. The best, find a partner who loves garlic as much as you do ;). Next time, I'll try White Home/Dill Sauce with just a splash of Mint Sauce, and maybe a little Garlic Sauce on the side.

I wasn't sure if I wanted the The Dinner which is a protein, salad, roasted potatoes, rice and pita, or the Whole Open-protein, veggies and dipping sauce. I wasn't sure about the potatoes so she offered me a sample and that sold me on the The Dinner but I got double potato instead of rice. Everything was quite delicious but my only issue is the portion size of grilled chicken and dill sauce. For the price, I would have liked four strips instead of the two small ones and an ounce more of the dipping sauce. Overall, this was a great experience and I will definitely try again! No pictures because I forgot.

I modify all my meals, as something I want one piece of chicken and two falafels, it's just what I like and it's never a problem. I think their chicken is good, it hits perfect in a pita with dill and I love the falafels here in comparison to some other places. My only complaint is that they're not closer to my home, if they were I would be here way too often. Thank you Pita!

The wine selection was good and prices were reasonable. Specialty smoked cocktails seem to be one of their highlights because many people were ordering them.
