great new place in the garment district
Having worked in this neighborhood for years, lunch options can get pretty boring. And then a new place will open up and the food is... just like the old places. Not so with Crisp. I tried The Parisian falafal sandwich today and it was delicious. The menu is creative and the food is super-fresh and made to order. The line was long but moved quickly (impressive), people working there are friendly, cute atmosphere. It is a bit pricey for lunch ($8.75 + tax for mine) but I'd have to say I'm willing to spend a little extra every now and then for something different. And there are less expensive items if you don't want to spend so much ($6.75 and up). I agree with the last reviewer on one point though, since they tout themselves as healthy, where is the nutrition info?? I looked online and found no information, they really should post it on their website. My sandwich had falafel (can be fattening or not depending on how it's prepared), roasted peppers, onions, greens (healthy), lots of goat cheese (uh oh), sundried tomato spread (hmmm?) on a whole-wheat pita. And the portion was rather large... I really would like to know how much fat and calories that was before I order it again...

How healthy is it?
For a restaurant that touts how healthy they are, you can't find nutritional information anywhere. I have a feeling a calorie display might scare many of us away. They are mighty tasty, though!

Awesome!
I ordered the Athenian "handbag" today for lunch...it was out of this world. The falafel was crispy but not greasy, the salad was SO fresh and the pita was freshly baked. It's now my new favorite place...can't wait to try the other varieties!

Who still charges for deliveries these days?
Online delivery form defaulted to billing address even though I specified a different delivery address - annoying. Very expensive for what it is. Hate that they charge a $2.50 delivery fee and have a $15 credit card minimum. Food was good but not great. Hummus was a bit bland.

Great Food!
Ordered here for first time - had problem with my order because there were some mistakes but they fixed it right away and the food was really delicious! I will definitely order from here again. It is really tasty.

baked falafel?
The falafel balls themselves were very non-greasy - I suspect that they were baked. Still, the sandwich tasted great thanks to the fancy toppings. I'm not quite sure it was worth the price, but it helps that service was quick and the place seemed well run.

Loved it!
I had one of the falafel sandwiches and thought they were hearty and delicious. I highly recommend this place.
