No way - Edit
Points for being open late in a city that doesn't have many vegan options open late, but... that's about it. The falafel pita I got was borderline inedible, and the fries were pretty sad as well.

Solid - Edit
I hadn’t been here in a long time. Happy to see the menu has been updated to include quite a few vegetarian and vegan options. I only tried the vegan Kafta Kababs today and it was a solid entree. Posted pic of kababs and full menu.

Love their Food! - Edit
This is one of our “go-to” restaurants! Many vegan and vegetarian options. Personally, we find it fun to order several Mezze (appetizers). We love their hummus, baba gannouj, fool, zeit wa zatar, vegan makdous, vegan kibbeh, vegan stuffed grape leaves, vegan falafel, and vegan spinach pies. As a bonus, they have a really great atmosphere too if you choose to dine there (indoor and outdoor seating available).

Decadent hummus - Edit
I haven’t tried much here but I can tell you that the hummus is to die for. I want to come back and ask more about the vegan options but most of their labeled vegetarian options seem already vegan

I'm just not that into you. - Edit
Sure this place is a lot more interesting looking than many other Jax restaurants. But..the "interesting" doesn't make it past the looks of the place/people. The waitress was really nice, and very helpful in helping me find vegan items on the menu (don't eat the rice if you're vegan - it has butter in it) but the food I got was absolutely booorrr-ZZZZZZ-ing. I've had much better fast food/cart/mall made middle eastern food. It's really not worth the $..and it isn't even that expensive. I wouldn't recommend wasting your time/money/or hunger here...unless you like bland food. And I know some of you do...based on rave reviews for other vegan friendly restaurants I've eaten at that ended up boring my taste buds into retreat. Again..super nice waitress..main bonus.

Wonderful experience - Edit
We met some friends for dinner and drinks. The atmosphere was truly wonderful. The close packed restaurant have a lively feel with enough noise to not hear other tables, but not so much as to drown out our conversation. The waiter was excellent. Answered questions, gave us time, never pushed, served well, checked in right before happy hour ended, made great recommendations, and was all around wonderful. We order the combo for two. We got the fool (fava bean dip - Superb), the vegetable - chesse - olive tray, the ground beef, and shrimp kabobs. The food was excellent. The atmosphere was wonderful, and the drinks terrific. We really enjoyed the experience.
