  Definitely my fav place to go for lunch.
  .
  They have a lunch buffet which is simple and yummy. Most of the buffet is daily vegetables, some sort of rice could be yellow or white rice. As well 2 kinds of meat like chicken and meat balls. As well a simple salad bar with hummus too.
  .
  I love the salad bar because its quick and I love eating healthy and simple. A couple thing that really stands out is there samosas, and spring rolls. I love there samosas because the wrap is not thick and more thin and crisp. As well dip in there mint garlic sauce is the best which the sauce needs to be requested.
  .
  I also have taken out for the lunch buffet. Basically you take an empty place Togo and fix it up and take it back to the office if needed.
  .
  I also loved their Mediterranean fries, which make sure you request your fries extra crispy and add extra white sauce because it's so b.p. good. And they do sprinkle some feta cheese on top too.
  .
  Have not yet try their salads and sandwiches to wraps yet but the way to go is their lunch buffet if your hangry or starving. Buffet is very vegeterian friendly. For 11 bucks per person and comes with a soda fountain cup. Thanks for reading and have a yelptastic day!

  I was looking for a quick lunch and I definitely found the place. They had a buffet, however you have to ask about it, I could not see any signs. So I ended up ordering a Chicken shawarma pita. Definitely not impressed. The lettuce was topped on top of the pot bread and was still wet, which began to make my bread soggy. The chicken was as if it had been boiled, so dry. However it did have good seasoning and then a few tomato pieces were put on top.  The yogurt sauce came in the side, probably one of the smallest containers I have ever seen.
  
  The restaurant was clean and the staff was friendly, just not the best lunch

  Really a great meal!  I ordered a Mediterranean chicken bowl, it was delicious.  
  
  At first I  thought they made a mistake as it looked like a salad.  Nope, just a salad on top with some great kalamata olives.  It was over a really tasty, slightly spicy mix of shredded chicken amd rice.  It was different with the cold salad over the warm rice and chicken, but I loved it!  
  
  Cafe style, order at the counter and they deliver to your  table.  
  
  I will be back!

  I usually love the Crest Cafe. I'm giving it a 4 because most of the time it's amazing. There chicken, rice, and warm pita bread is amazing. I had lunch recently and ordered the garlic chicken wrap and a side of gyro fries without tomato. My sister and I did not like the garlic chicken wrap. It had a weird flavor to it. I had to smother it with the sauce to make it edible. My sister only ate half of hers. The side of gyro fries were really yummy. Huge portion. I think the side of gyro fries can feed two people. My friend had the garlic chicken entree and that was yummy. I wish they also give more sauce. We only received one for each of our meals and I think each meal should come with at least two. I had the Bundaberg blood orange soda which was very delicious. I will come again and give it another try in hopes that I just ordered bad garlic chicken.

  I always enjoyed chicken sumac at cafe Morocco and was so disappointed when they closed down earlier this year.  Crest cafe is a decent alternative as theirs is just as tasty.  Nicely spiced and tender.  The one thing they could do to improve is to switch out their pita to something less packaged.  It's the equivalent to wonder bread as opposed to one that is more artisan.  Serving a nice warm homemade like pita would elevate their dishes very nicely.  
  
  One major fail was the hummus.  It was so flat and lacking in flavor.  It tastes like just puréed chickpeas without any depth of spices.  
  
  Otherwise, I like coming down to this part of town and seeing the variety of restaurants. I think it still has a ways to go, but so much potential to be a nice urban walking area.
