This place is the gold standard of Mediterranean food in the Iowa City area--while I tend to prefer…read moreLebanese to similar regional cuisines (this place is Egyptian IIRC), this has been stellar from day one. Excellent service in restaurant or grocery, superbly prepared food (the chicken, folks--try the chicken and the fries), fair prices for good portions--this place deserves to be packed all the time.

We were on our way back home from Trek Fest (Yes, we are geeks) and wanted food. As we are inclined…read moreto do, we looked up several sorts. We settled on middle eastern, and this is where we ended up. We went pretty simple. Lamb Kofta sandwich, hummus and baba ganoush. Wow, everything was spectacular. The sandwich had tahini, onions and peppers on wonderful pita bread. The pita bread alone was worth the stop, we should have brought some home with us (did I mention they have a store there as well?) The hummus was smooth and understated and very good. Slightly different than I expected, but it was a good different. The baba ganoush was amazing. Rich and flavorful. This is now on our list of places to make sure we are passing through in time for a meal (its a big list). This was a wonderful find!

I used to go here all the time. Now I just stop in when I'm back in town but this is the first time it's been sub par. I ordered a whole. It had like 3 falafel balls in it. That used to be a half. Plus it was deep into the whole pita. Could've been more room for the toppings but all they had were two watery sauces in a bottle and a jalapeño relish. No wonder it was empty in there. It used to be packed.

Oasis is always on my list when I visit Iowa. This is the best babghanoush and best hummus ever!…read more I visited after a couple of yrs and saw they had made a lot of updates to the menu, to the interiors and also the sauce bar. I miss the red cabbage from the sauce bar, but glad the green hot chutney is still there. I usually get a genie's plate that is 4 sides with a pita. They are definitely not making the pita in-house anymore. I miss the old vibes, but still a solid meal. Definitely will go back on my next visit to Iowa.

Can't wait to try some of the new stuff on the menu but it'll be hard to get away from the beef tenderloin.
