About

Tarek's Cafe features casual Middle Eastern and Mediterranean fare served deli-style with a focus on falafel and vegetarian dishes like veggieburgers with hummus or baba ganoush. The cafe is busy at lunchtime, accepts cash only, and offers indoor seating, wheelchair accessibility, and some vegan-friendly snack samples on cold days. Reviews praise the falafel wrap's fresh ingredients and knowledgeable staff, though one noted confusion about tahini containing sour cream despite staff assurances.
