Probably not a full blown 4 but not a 3

Food was good. Service was a little slow as far as taking our order goes. Food came quickly

Pros: Grilled Veggies over rice was good, Red Lentil soup was good, Falafels were good

Cons: Arabic salad was way too salty, Booth seating is firm, limited cushioning

Gut

Lecker und günstig. Nur das Brot war eindeutig nicht frisch. Die Portion hätte größer ausfallen können. Freundlicher Service.

Delicious and cheap. Only the bread was clearly not fresh. The portion could have been larger. Friendly service.

Yes, delicious, amazing

I went when it wasn’t busy and server was willing to swap a few dolmades instead of the hummus in the veggie plate :)
Very flavorful and delicious, plus kind people. Love!

Authentic food

The food was very delicious and the server was helpful with answering what items were vegan and gluten free. He seemed to be knowledgeable about veganism. They also left you alone for the most part.

Pros: Delicious food, Good atmosphere , Helpful staff

Cons: Expensive

Deserves five stars!

Falafel, rice and hummus were tasty, as were the grape leaves! Such an accommodating owner...he taught us all about Turkish coffee!

They know how to do it.

You can tell the proprietors are from the Middle East because of how they pronounce their 'R's, but also because the 🧆 is perfectly cooked and spiced, the tahini is correct, and the baba ganouj is appropriately smoky.

Great falafel options

I had the veggie platter which came with a couple of falafel balls, salad, hummus, baba ghanouj, and a lot of pita bread for $14. It was very tasty and filling. There is also a falafel plate but you only can choose two sides.

Excellent!

I stopped by Olive after Mardi Gras parades and was happy they were open. Everything was delicious. Ordered the vegetarian platter (tabbouleh, falafel, hummus, baba ganoush, and flatbread) as well as the grape leaves. It was all fresh and tasty.

Decent Mediterranean food

This place has a decent number of vegan options. I had the falafel. It was spicier than I prefer, but it was fine and reasonably priced.

Wonderful cafe with many vegan options!

Nice decor and friendly staff in this Lebanese restaurant. They were knowledgeable about vegans and their vegan options. They are also sensitive to gluten-free diets. The baba ganoush is vegan, which is great because it's not always. There are many options and I especially loved the Lebanese tea - delicious! Reasonably priced and quick service, I would definitely recommend this place.

Good Plant-based options in a convenient location 3 blocks from quarter

Food and service were good. Falafel was different, but OK. It could be because we came in at 8:30pm. There were several good options on the menu if you eat plant based.

Pros: Good Location, Good Service, Reasonable prices

Casual Mediterranean at a fair price.

This is a small cafe in CBD. Menu variety, portions and prices are good for vegans on a budget!

Pros: Several vegan options, Excellent service, Dishes were attractive and tasty

Cons: Decor is okay, Could be cleaner

Great vegan options

Ordered stuffed grape leaves and veggie Kallaya, which came with a side of hummus and a green salad. Everything was delicious, with good size portions.

Authentic Mediterranean Food

I had the vegetarian platter which is vegan since they don’t use dairy in their baba ganoush or hummus. The tabouleh was fresh, the hummus creamy, the baba ganoush Smokey and the falafel crispy. They also do stuffed vine leaves and serve breakfast until 10:30am. Friendly staff.
I highly recommend!

Pros: Most mezze are vegan, Food is delicious, Cheap

Cons: None
