Business big-shots line up for almost flawless falafel and shawarma at this Financial District lunch spot.. The words "cheap falafel" often conjure visions of street push carts or small neighborhood takeout joints. Not so with this spacious restaurant, lined with large, polished wooden tables for the lunchtime hordes of finance professionals. The cafeteria-style service is friendly and efficient, perfect for a quick, yet satisfying, lunch. Falafel is the main attraction: With a perfectly crispy surface and soft interior, it's available in a tightly wrapped, freshly made pita smothered in lettuce, tomato, pickles and tahini, or as part of a generous vegetarian platter.

Hits: In a neighborhood not known for its dining scene, the restaurant's combination of delicious food and cheap prices is a godsend.

Misses: While service is usually quick, weekday lunch crowds can create long waits.
