I love Mediterranean, so when a coworker said she was putting together a group order for Bocadillos, I was super excited. Â I happily picked out my falafel sandwich, and added some customizations to the special instructions (No lettuce, tomato, or onion. Â Add feta and hummus. Â Add pickles if you have them. Upcharges are fine.)
And then the waiting started. Â GrubHub gave me an estimated delivery time, and from what I understand, that was the time that Bocadillos gave them. Â That hour ticked by. Â I call GrubHub. Â They say the food should be here in 15-20 minutes. Â Me and half a dozen hungry coworkers waited anxiously...and the order ended up arriving almost half an hour after it was supposed to. Â Very. Â Sad. Â Panda.
But, I love Mediterranean! Â So I'll forgive a lot for delicious falafel. Â Punch me in the face? Â No problem if you hand me a nice bit of falafel afterwards.
Sadly, the food we got from Bocadillos was not good. Â Here's a summary:
- All the french fries were lukewarm at best
- The hummus wasn't really hummus-y textured, more of a tahini texture. Also, it was sweet. Â Which is just weird
- The falafel also wasn't even warm, and didn't taste quite right.
- My special instructions to add hummus, feta, and pickles (if possible) were completely ignored. Â I got pita, and falafel. Â I had to mooch of someone else's hummus side.
Overall, I'd try them again if I were dining in. Â However, in terms of takeout - nope, I'll just walk to Oasis instead. Â Even if they don't have pickles.
