Description [edit me!]

Casablanca continues the tradition started by Rosa's of having Asian women cooking non-Asian food. This wonderful Mediterranean food truck serves the same food as Rami's and Magic Carpet without the long walk or the long wait, respectively. It's prices are slightly higher but still competitive and the food gets prepared very quickly. The proprietor's falafel-wrapping job could have been better, but I would still recommend stopping by if you were in a hurry and on Spruce. -AG

I always passed this cart because I saw Asian people running it, but I decided to try it today and am amazed at how good this is and how much food you get for your money. These are among the largest sandwiches you can get from a food cart. I got the Kefta with an extra grape leaf. Everything was fresh and tasty. The spicy sauce has a good kick to it. I will return! -Clare

I had a lamb gyro and it was terrific. Tons of meat, yummy sauce and a good price. I saw someone complain about the poor wrapping - I think it\'s just because it was overflowing with food. :-) -Mandy

The chicken kabab sandwich was much better than I expected. The kabab itself was delicious, but the sauce kind of drowned out the taste a bit. Nevertheless, Casablanca is a solid option for Mediterranean food, particularly non-vegetarian. -Abhi
