Grapeleaves is a great place for carry-out during their lunch hour rush or to sit down with a friend or for a meeting. Their hommous is absolutely the best I've ever had at any Middle Eastern restaurant, the falafel sandwiches are ridiculously cheap ($3.45) and, well, just talking about them makes me salivate like Pavlov's dogs. As a vegetarian, I recommend these choices along with the vegetarian grapeleaves, lentil kibbee, mujadara, their fresh and zesty fattoush and the crushed lentil soup. The smoothies are superb, the servers are quick and generous with the pita and my friend from Iraq says the baba ghanooj is the best she's had here in the states. Grapeleaves is the only restaurant I've ever been borderline addicted to.
Pros: Pretty much everything.
Cons: Strip mall location.
