This is a great hole-in-the-wall restaurant that cooks its food right in front of you. The gyros here are sumptious. The chicken kabob is moist and tender. The hot sauce is a wonderful compliment to the food. Also try the fresh squeezed juice - the drinks are hand squeezed and incredibly frothy. The service is friendly and you can get a filling meal for very cheap. The restaurant is not very big but rest assured, you'll be very satisfied!
Few things that come in ball form are as wonderful as Hungry Pocket's falafel balls. You get about 3 or 4 freshly made balls in a pita stuffed with lettuce and tomato, which I find to have a little too much "salad" but that's just me. It is topped with their tasty tahini sauce and it will fill you up for $3.50, that is if you are a petite girl such as myself, a larger man may want to order two. Or you could go on Mondays or Wednesday's and have all you can eat for $6.50. I also had their gyro's which are decent and more expensive ($4.75) than their bally friends, I prefer the falafel as gyro's with tahini sauce just aren't as tasty as those with tzastiki, which HP does not have. The food is strictly middle eastern, no Greek flavors here, which includes the baklava which is an amazing sweet blend of honey, nuts and rose water and tastes little like the Greek version which personally I think pales in comparison to HP's.

A bit pricey! But the food was OK. Service a little slow,
This is a classy restaurant. My husband and I brought our three kids on a busy night and they were so kind and professional. Not put out by them at all. The food was good too. We had a great time!
