Wtf Unilocal,this place doesn’t exist anymore. I walked over and it was gone. Checked Google maps and they knew it was permanently closed

Overpriced hummus. Not bad, but expensive for what you get. You are paying for the place, not the food.

This place is a JOKE.
The «Humus» itself — a mere yellow chick peas purée.
Too dry and grainy, not creamy.
Ezra, pound some sense in your kitchen staff…
put some tahini in the paste !
Right now the meal functions as a sad vegan dip.
Also, being cheap on hot sauce, tahini side (NOT a topping)
and extra pitas is just against the humus treaty and the Israel feel
you’re imitating.

The vibe: This is where Ezra’s Pound used to be and it’s owned by the same person as Ezra’s. The new hummus bar has maintained the Ezra’s casual environment. You order your food from the counter and then it gets brought to you. It’s a nice place to go for lunch, and wasn’t too busy when I went.
The food: Hummus galore! I went with a group of girl friends so I had the opportunity to try many things which is perfect for this tapas style joint. We ordered the regular hummus, hummus with warm olives (my favourite), walnuts and dates plate, and the feta plate. The feta plate was delicious. The feta was sprinkled with olive oil, mint and lemon. The portions are really large, which surprised me. We *almost* couldn’t finish our walnut and date plate.
My go to meal: warm olive hummus & feta.

Terrific hummus which is a good thing since this former Ezra Pound café reinvented itself as a hummus café. The menu is very short and to the point – hummus with various options. Try the hummus with the «works» –very yummy with spiced meat (beef), olives, tahini, harrisa etc.
Since this spot is still owned by the founder of Ezra Pound the coffee is still superb. Next time will try the halvah with fresh oranges for dessert and one of their teas with mint or licorice.
A good spot for a light middle eastern bite during the day. It’s only open til 6pm.
