Oasis moved from the Jeweler's Mall to this new location in mid-September.

Oasis features daily specials such as the veggie combo, a platter of hummus, baba ghanoush (eggplant pureed with tahini, olive oil and lemon juice), falafal (fried balls of spiced, ground chickpeas) and stuffed grape leaves or tabbouleh (bulger wheat with vegetables and lemon juice). Daily luncheon specials include Moroccan couscous on Fridays. The house made baklava is the specialty dessert -- the best day to get it is Tuesday when owner Suleiman Ahmad makes it fresh.
