Middle Eastern food served in authentic style and setting with great politeness and efficiency. Start with the kibi, crispy shells of cracked wheat stuffed with pine nuts, beef, onions, and spices including cumin, and then deep-fried.

Like the authentic Israeli street food of Tel Aviv, Sunrise Pita is cheap, fast, fresh, and kosher. Start with protein (crispy, hand made falafels, fresh grilled chicken breast, shaved turkey shawarma, or thick slices of beef shish kebab), choose a bread type (pillowy lafa or warm, fresh pita), and fill it with any of a […]
