Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans. This small Middle Eastern restaurant is well known for its location in the center of the triangle of Middle Eastern eateries, and for the unique style of thick pita bread served. The only way to describe it is thick and memorable. Babylon Cafe is located near both Loyola and Tulane Universities. They offer all the usual Mediterranean dishes such as Lebanese iced tea, stuffed grape leaves, hummus, stuffed pitas and a one-of-a-kind roasted garlic sandwich. Be sure to save some room for Baklava and a cup of Turkish coffee or mint tea for dessert. This is a small cafe with one chef, one assistant and one waitress so expect slower service at peak hours. The food will more than make up for the wait! -Karen Gros Review © 2007, Wcities |

Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans. Dirar Monsa opened this Middle Eastern diner and grocery in 1988. Its namesake is taken from a city five miles south of Monsa's hometown in Palestine. Intense flavor and pure Palestine heritage are the keys to this successful eatery. Sparsely decorated walls surround plain tables. The only thing American here is the television. True to its religious roots there are no pork dishes. The food is good and the prices are even better. Shish kebab is the most expensive item. Shaved beef and chicken sandwiches are served in pita pockets. Desserts of baklava and sweet fingers top off at $1 per serving. Review © 2007, Wcities |
