I'd go for one of the wraps - grilled chicken, 3 nice pieces hot off the grill - or falafel, straight outta the fryer, right into your sandwich. The toppings are all right there in front of you, tomatoes, onions, lettuce, hummus, b. peppers, feta, and the hot sauce among others. It's a great sandwich served up fast and fresh. If you are new, or need time to decide, let them know, because otherwise the sandwich maker goes to town! I think they have salads too but to be honest I haven't branched out from the old reliable and amazing wraps they make.

Service was fast and friendly and the wrap was grilled and absolutely delicious! A lot of the garlic white sauce and oh so good- glad I tried this place in addition to my usual East Side Pockets- will definitely be back! Lots of happy customers in here- vibrant and lively energy of friends and patrons.... UPDATE- I went back and got the shawarma platter AND tried the gyro- I can't believe it took me so long to come here (probably mostly because East Side Pockets was so darn good). pro tip: get the shawarma from here and the gyro and falafel from East Side Pockets and have a feast in a nearby park! I could eat here every day:)

Summary: Solid food, lots of lettuce. We were looking for…read moreshopping so we walked to the end and back and decided on Livi's Pockets for lunch. The menu had a lot of selections which were wraps. My wife got the chicken wrap, I selected the gyros wrap. The chicken wrap (a special) had 4 pieces of avocado with chicken, and a lot of lettuce. My gyro wrap was coated with tzatziki sauce inside the wrap, with a lot of lettuce and gyro meat not off a skewer (yes, there is a difference). I also bought a chocolate chip cookie, which was massive. Still, it was tasty. The soft drinks were a bit expensive at $7 for a 20 ounce Dr. Pepper - you can get two for one at most gas stations and come out with more change. The staff was nice. Service was fast. In terms of ambiance, it was a typical fast food place with tables and seating.

I found the perfect drink for myself on the menu. Since I am not a huge coffee fan, I usually gravitate towards matchas or chai lattes - lucky for me, they had a chai latte matcha which I ordered iced. The inside is well illuminated, with a lot of natural light coming in. It is also very clean and I think the light colors helped create a mellow and relaxing mood. After a couple minutes, they gave me my drink and since they were cleaning up, I decided to walk around outside instead of sitting.

They close online ordering when they're really busy. One of my friends refreshed their online ordering around 11am and saw they were allowing online orders, but by the time the 6th friend tried, it had closed back up. I placed my order for one sandwich at 11:05am and the expected pick up time was 12:12. I ordered their hash-it-out, added sausage, and subbed the spicy aioli for their maple one. The bolo bun has a subtle sweetness to it, so it felt like I was eating a healthier, higher-end McGriddle. Everything was perfect. One was definitely filling enough, but I can see people getting addicted.
