"Gazala’s is a Middle Eastern restaurant where you can have a plate of shawarma over hummus with a glass of wine, and leave without spending all the money you’ve been saving for a hotel-quality bathrobe. Or you can get something like a chicken wrap and a side of hummus with some extra-thin housemade pita. The food here is satisfying and unpretentious, and the whole place is about as casual and friendly as a friend of a friend’s living room." - bryan kim
