![]() Their burger was decent, with better meat quality than expected. (Is there a meat kind? What does the falafel beast look like?) Once my falafel Unilocal duty was done, I made a couple more visits here to check their nominal offerings. Personal note: They insisted on calling it «veggie falafel,» which I found slightly humorous Whenever I asked them a question about their «falafel» they first replied, «veggie falafel?» every time. In the end, over $ 9 for this was a ripoff. The plate included yogurt dip but no hummus. An unexpected bonus was the pita - very high quality thick and fresh. Kudos for being fresh-fried, but these disks were over-dense, a little dry, and yet tasted too much like oil. The plate had 3 falafel balls that were more like disks. ![]() ![]() The counter lady said «it came» with a side salad and drink but utterly failed to tell me this was $ 2. No matter - I heard they offered one of my favorite foods, so I came to check it out: – Falafel plate ($ 6. Shoreline is your basic burger and sandwich place in a strip mall It is nowhere near the shoreline, nor is it adjacent to the park of the same name. ![]() I agree to take out one star only, because for the price i am paying i dont need a 5 star service. Yeah, 5 star does need a good service or at least everything is clean even for fast food. If you are like me, come here for the food, dont mind a dirty table sometimes, and have the ability to carry a dish from the counter to your table, I think this is a good place to have your lunch in the middle of your work. I like it even more after heat it up again from Microwave, so all the sauce and juice soak into the bread. Unlike all you guys come here for the service, i am here for the food. That’s why you dont leave a 15% - 20% tip. It is just like how you cannot expect the cook from a street taco shop to serve you everything. Yes, they are true, but so what? This is not a 5 star hotel type of food, it is food that you take it to go or maybe you can call it fast food shop. There are so many people complaining about the service and all kind of random stuff about this restaurant. Upon seeing a Living Social deal today, I thought maybe… just maybe… but after a quick look via Unilocal to see if anything had changed, I decided I’d rather pay full price for a good meal elsewhere, save for a really outstanding meal or try someplace new. I was quickly told the condiment bar but it didn’t come with smiles either… The burger was meh, the fries unimpressive & I remember leaving thinking, well - I gave the place a try & as I keep saying, w/so many options out there, there’s no reason to return. When called, I went up to get my burger & asked about condiments. Thinking back, I remember telling them that it was my 1 st visit & I had a hankering for a burger. Especially important, if it’s a burger, sandwich, quick food kind of place of which there are so many of to choose from. First impressions w/the basics are important because if there are flaws in service, but the food is good, then there might be a compelling reason to return for a 2 nd try. I left feeling meh & have never returned. It’s been 2 years since I had a burger & fries at the Shoreline Grill.
