Kabab Paradise has been a mainstay ever since it opened. Delicious food, friendly staff, great prices, VALUE! (Always enough for tasty leftovers.) Tops on my list of local recommendations for my visiting guests. Lusciously crispy Falafels, the Gyro Platter is delightful, refreshing Mango Lassi - and be sure to leave room for a Cream Roll. They deliver, of course. Walkable
