The deli
Basra Bay Deli | Gyros, Shawarma & Falafel in Monterey
A short menu we've kept the same for years because it works: gyro and shawarma wrapped in pita, falafel fried to order, hummus and baba ghanouj, lentil soup, salad with the soup or with chicken, walnut or pistachio baklava, and Turkish coffee. Order online for pickup, or call ahead. Vegetarian items are tagged — ask and we'll point out what's vegan.
