text: Nellie's brings a much needed respite from regular ol' sandwiches, soups and pizza that pervade the Oakland lunch scene. \n\nMy recent favs are the falafel and tabouli. Oooh, that tabouli... so flavorful with the parsley and citrus, man it's good on a ripped pita section! Recent dislike is the hummos; I find it too \"Earthy.\" The service is nice and typically prompt, they accept cards (there's a minimum charge amount), and the location is a plus for those of us who work at the top of the hill. Stop in, and give some local business owners your patronage!
