This Middle Eastern spot on Capitol Hill has everything you love about a satisfying sit-down lunch, only it's a counter-service operation that works in a pinch if you're strapped for time. If the restaurant's name (or the decorative chickpea wall decals) didn't give it away, this place is all about hummus. And while the bean mash in question is overshadowed by some of the city's finest falafel, the stuff is good enough to build a tasty, kind-of-healthy spread around. Swing in for a meal that's equal parts quick and comfortable, and make sure to tack on an order of "cheeps," a.k.a. shawarma-spiced fries with a garlicky amba aioli.
