Cons are the hectic parking due to being in University City area and good service being inconsistent. On this last visit, I arrived 15-20 minutes before close. My food was ready so it was not big deal but another customer that walked in with me was quickly told that they were closing in a rude tone. Why have a closing time if you are going to pack up before then. I could see maybe 5 minutes before but I felt overall bad for the customer who took her time who was just trying to order a salad.

The entire menu is vegan friendly and tastes incredible. I got a vegan chicken spicy sandwich and sweet potato fries and completely crushed the meal in half an hour because it was so good. I ordered a juice to accompany my meal, it was tart yet sweet. A nice balance. If you have an insatiable sweet tooth like myself, I also would get a milkshake next time. Luckily, my friend let me try hers and as someone with a dairy sensitivity- it was incredible and you can't even tell it's nondairy. this will definitely be my new veggie junk food spot. The vibes are chill it's kind of cafe style. The university city location will have a lot of college students of course being right by UPenn! But if you are open to trying vegetarian foods or are vegan / vegetarian this is worth it. And not badly priced either, my whole meal with tax and tip was roughly $20.

We are about a block away on the Penn Campus so we decided to check it out. The restaurant was about half full. Most people ordered their meal to go and rushed to get back to work. There is an extensive menu filled with different options. I decided to go for the plate option which comes with an entree and two appetizers. I ordered the chicken with tzatziki sauce along with pita on the side. For the two sides I chose lemon potatoes and mushrooms. The chicken was great after rolling it up in the pita and dipping it in the tzatziki sauce. The lemon was a little too strong in those potatoes. Next time I might choose french fries or rice instead. They give you a large amount of food for the price. I was unable to finish the entire meal and grabbed the rest to go for later. The staff was very helpful getting a to go box and cleaning up afterwards. I think I will definitely be coming back here for a large meal sometime this week.

You can order at a kiosk so you don't even have to interact with anyone. Their tzatziki might be the best I've ever had and I've been to Greece multiple times. I eat mainly Mediterranean and this place is top tier casual Greek food (and affordable too). Highly recommend.

The décor is colorful, stylish, and inviting, while still feeling relaxed enough for just about any occasion. The food is reasonably good, with French-inspired dishes like Steak Frites, which fits the whole Parisian brasserie vibe perfectly. I've come here for a date, met up with friends, and even had a work meeting here...it works surprisingly well for all three. The staff is always friendly and the bar tenders are easy to talk to and know their stuff about drinks. Being right near the Penn and Drexel campus environment gives the restaurant a nice energy without taking away from the upscale feel. Definitely a good option if you're looking for beautiful surroundings, a European-inspired experience, and a versatile place to eat and connect.

The smoothies aren't overly sweet, although the taste of the protein powder in the acai one isn't the best. Ordering is similar to that of Chipotle or other setups like that, where you start at the far end of the counter and move down to the register as they make your salad/wrap/bowl. Inside is very brightly lit and located within walking distance of the university.

I was a fan of the Suburban Square location, which I thought I was ordering from, but I'll probably never bring my business back here. Just want to add to my review that I tried the day after ordering to call the restaurant and still no answer. At last, today, almost a full 2 days after I originally ordered. After speaking with staff, I was told he was unable to help me with a refund because too much time had passed since the original order. He was apologetic, but it's shameful that I now how to try to get the money from my bank because the restaurant can't even give me a refund.

She gave us great recs too! The Persian Garden was great. I'm not a big fan of ordering coffee/espresso/lattes but the rose flavor was something I didn't expect to like. The baba ganouj and beetroot tzatziki were both hits for the family. The baba ganouj had the smoky flavor I was looking for and the tzatziki was fresh and light. The pita was thick, soft, and warm, perfect for dipping. The kofta, tuna tartare, and crispy grape leaves weren't too bad. The kofta is quite large and the lamb didn't taste too gamey at all. The arugula and tahini really brightened the flatbread. I enjoyed the tuna tartare but I was looking for more of the tuna flavor. As for the crispy grape leaves, it was a bit like an eggroll but mushy inside. I wasn't the biggest fan of this and tzatziki dipping sauce but that's just me. Finally, the chicken mohammar and grilled kofta were both great! We enjoyed the chicken mohammar much more though. The sauce was smoky and savor while the chicken was extremely tender. The pita was perfect to encapsulate the chicken and soak up the sauce! As for the grilled kofta, we did like the wild rice and lamb. The arugula and onion went great with the lamb. It was a great introduction to mediterranean food for my parents! I'm glad we came here and I'd consider coming back!
