Had a dinner here the other day here on one of their outdoor seating. Be aware that there is limited outdoor seating and you will be occasionally entertained by vehicles passing by and pedestrians (we didn’t mind).
We tried:
The Janis chicken sandwich (menu says Chicken breast tossed with dill sour cream, pickles, cheddar cheese and green apple. Served on a fresh baked bread)
The Mandy Couscous with Chicken (menu says Israeli couscous with cucumber, carrot, radish, parsley, spinach, pickled red onion and a red wine vinaigrette)
And a pizza that was apparently a concept they were trying out (candied garlic, basil leaves, tomatoes, a white sauce, and drizzled with balsamic).
The sandwich was packed into a large pita, cut into two and was mild tasting with some nice tangy and sweet green apple bits that added nicely to the taste. The pita chips were good, with a dusting of spice. The sandwich is a cold sandwich and the chicken was prepared previously; the other ingredients were freshly prepared.
The salad was excellent, with large, nicely prepared Cuscous and generally mild overall but with some nice tangy picked veggies here and there.
The pizza was very tasty, although it could have been cooked just a *tiny* bit longer (given the amount of take-out orders coming thru the kitchen that evening, this was probably not typical). We would order it again. Actually, we would order all of the items we had on a future visit.
Service was enthusiastic and polite although he seemed to be the only staff on hand and served the meals with a lot of marker on his fingers, which was a bit off-putting. Still would give a thumb’s up on the service.
The meal – with tip and alcohol – came to a reasonable $55 (the pizza was gratis as they were testing a new recipe).
Overall verdict is we’ll definitely go back again. 👍👍
