Diele K.

When you read Ron R's review and you are in Jax for work, how could you not stop in?! Heck, I even took the advice to order that sandwich and the Mac n' cheese. I arrived with roughly an hour left in their day, with the next day being closed. It's a shared parking lot with other businesses in the strip, but no issues with parking at 7pm on a Sunday. My server was Justin and as Justin said, "Reza made your food with love and it's coming up shortly." Usually I get nervous when you are one of two people in a place, but I'm happy to report that is in no indication how the food is! What I enjoyed: ~ Coca-cola: served in a to-go cup, and never even made it to half full before it was topped off. Even for to-go soda! Now that's what I can service! ~ Derby Fillies (Steak): I had requested no onions, but it came with onions. I picked around them, and honestly, the sandwich was so good I completely overlooked there being onions! Ain't no way I'd send it back after getting my hands on it. Justin said it's a amped up honey mustard as I couldn't place the sauce, and boy, was it D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S. Worthy of all caps and spaced out for dramatic effect. Sorry, I didn't convey that more Reza when you asked. When I'm eating I'm locked in, so all you got was it's really good before another bite. Haha. ~ Side of Mac n' Cheese: For a side, this is crafted with love. Easily the best "side" of Mac n' Cheese I've had. Love the edition of pepper, as I'm a firm believer that black pepper belongs in macaroni and cheese. What a stunning meal for under $25! Loved the Rock n' Roll vibes, and I won't hold it against Justin for supporting the wrong EPL team. Haha. Only kidding! Amazing food and service. If you are in Jax, check this place out!

From the moment we walked through the door, we received an incredible welcome! Honestly, I thought Justin was the owner because of how genuinely invested he was in making sure every guest had a great experience. Not that he needed to drum up business, the restaurant already had a healthy crowd, but his passion for the place was impossible to miss. We were seated quickly, given a thorough introduction to the menu, and even treated to a sample of the lentil soup we were considering. Great decision on their part because it was absolutely delicious! Little kick but just a hint, not too much to lose flavor! If you've read my reviews before, you know I have a soft spot for locally owned businesses. They often bring an extra level of love, attention, and passion to what they do, and that shines through loud and clear here. One of my favorite surprises was the atmosphere. Between the music and the unique décor, this place has a personality all its own. As an '80s rock girl, I felt right at home, and it made an already enjoyable dining experience even better. Most importantly, Justin and Will made us feel like VIPs from start to finish. Outstanding service, great food, and a welcoming atmosphere--what more could you ask for? We can't wait to come back and work our way through more of the menu!

I wish this place were open 7 days a week, late on the weekends and open early during the week. I love this place, the staff is brilliant, very attentive and friendly. The owners are so cool, to brothers who live to host people and listen to rock music. I can't to frequent this place more, their soups and stews are so good on a cold day

Oh my goodness! Happened to be in Jacksonville for an event and wanted a quick bite to eat close by. Love Mediterranean and Middle Eastern food and Fast Eddy's popped up on Yelp and was just around the corner. Restaurant has just a few tables as well as a counter area. So very glad we found this restaurant! William is the owner and his son Will waited on us - both so friendly, helpful and personable! The menu is awesome - a great selection of appetizers, salads, soups/stews, sandwiches and main dishes - many Middle Eastern choices and a few American bites as well. My favorite thing was that dishes and menu sections are named after various family members - William's mom, dad and siblings. We started with the hummus and pita chip appetizer - so yummy! Hubs and I eat hummus everywhere we go, and this rivaled some of the best! Amazing flavor, creamy with just the right amount of olive oil, garlic and paprika. I had the falafel wrap with a side salad - really good! Hugs had the fattoush salad followed by chicken tikka kebab with grilled mixed veggies - he loved it and shared a few tastes with me - delicious! The veggies and meat were seasoned with the family's own spice mix and it's amazing! We can't wait to come back soon!

Such a high energy place with good food and good service. Shout out to Will who took great care of us this afternoon. Ordered the lunch special of Veggie Curry and much came with a drink and the egg roll appetizer. Yummy goodness always lets me recommend this place to family and friends!

Beef lamb mix with byriani rice. I probably spelled that wrong but it was good.

Walked in and felt like I was in a speedway Cafe. Smells were good coming from the kitchen. Sat down and noticed they had daily special, looked like a new dish or chef crafted ideas they come up with. Probably something they do on a regular basis. Server was nice, prompt, quick, and helpful. I put in my order and watched how fast the place filled up. My food came out hot and fresh. Tasted really good. Only complaint was that more meat would have been nice. The rice options were a different thing but good concept.

Sierra S.

Went to Jacksonville for a doctor's appointment and the nurse recommended this spot. So happy we listened. Not only was the food super delicious and fresh but the service was SO friendly. They really take care of you. Shout out to Justin and the whole team! My 4 year old got a burger and Mac and cheese, but honestly I ate a lot of his Mac cause it was so yummy. I got the mezza sampler, just what I wanted but way too much for just me. However, leftovers are no problem for me. My husband got chicken shawarma sandwich and really enjoyed it.

Second time here with friends from the area that go all the time. Firstly, the staff are fantastic. Reza, our waiter, asked everyone's name in the entire group and continued to use our names throughout the service. Nice touch! He is so genuine and warm. The food is amazing. Starting with the humus, lovely. We had falafel, chicken curry, beef kabob and macaroni. Everything is wonderfully spiced and tastes delicious. Decor is electric guitars and posters of metal bands.

Sherry W.

We came by for a late Saturday lunch. The cute little restaurant is decorated with Metallica, Pearl Jam, and other metal rock posters. The music matches the posters. While not real loud it is definitely in the background. We explained to our server William that it was our first time there and he patiently explained the menu to us. He was friendly and efficient our entire visit. We started with the tabouli. It was a parsley forward tabouli with light burgle (wheat), onion, and tomatoes in a light lemon dressing. My husband had the Bamiyah. It was a thick beef and okra stew served with rice. He thought it was very thick with a strong tomato flavor. It was loaded with okra and onion with a few nice chunks of beef. I had the Big Chicken Eddy. It was a grilled chicken wrap with lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles. It came with a choice of two sauces and I went with taziki and garlic. It was saucy and flavorful. However I had trouble keeping the wrap tight. We finished with homemade baklava. It was served warm with a warm honey sauce Finally-they offer beer and wine.

Love Mediterranean food! Time to visit Fast Eddy's!

Ron R.

Far and away the best sandwich experience I've had in years! I can't even remember when the last time I've had a sandwich in a restaurant this good! All I can say is, when you go to Fast Eddy's Quick Mideast, get the Derby Fillies sandwich! And I hereby order my readers to GO!! There are good reasons why this awesome Mediterranean cuisine outlet is as close to 5-star as you can get! First, I really like the uniqueness of this ma and pa shop. It's been here at this location now for around four years and seems to have built a nice clientele, but always welcoming of more! The wall decor is filled with pictures of Rock n Roll heroes past and present. And, yes, you will get to have your ears filled with the songs of many of these artists while you eat. I sat at the Ozzy and Randy Rhodes table and I can't say how I feel about that company! The servers were extremely courteous. Reza and Victoria were just outstanding from beginning to the end of our eating experience. I'm very grateful for their looking after us and answering our questions. Looking around at how they treated and dealt with other customers, my feeling is that this is how they treat customers consistently who visit Fast Eddy's. Both of us chose Reza's recommendations. My Derby Fillies might seems like a normal sandwich (sub type) with chicken, peppers, onions, mushrooms, American cheese on a hoagie roll. However, the way it's grilled in their "Babylonian sauce," really seals the deal on this sandwich. The sauce really blends well with this hot sandwich and you'll be thrilled you chose it! Even better yet, it is a large sandwich, so I had the other half on the next day - just as good as the first! My dearest ordered the Hammurabi burrito. This was another stellar choice as recommended by Reza once again. This sandwich is one of creativity, more than basic like the Derby. It comes on a flour tortilla with pickles, sumac onions, biryani rice, French fries, Amba sauce, chicken, along with garlic spread. Goodness I don't know a few of the items on this burrito! But it also blended excellently together and the pickles made it a treat! I got to eat from it two days in a row and it was just as good as the first day on the second! For sides, I had Mac and cheese. Yes, it was a solid Mac and cheese with some pepper in it. Our other side was the roasted vegetables. These are awesome! Both of the sides were delightful and easily shared between both of us. For dessert, we did try their homemade baklava. Well, when I tried it I knew it was unlike any baklava I've ever eaten. I knew it had to be made in-house and was a special recipe created in-shop. I was right on both counts! It was the best I've ever eaten. If you love baklava, you won't be disappointed here! Fast Eddy's is truly a superior restaurant and is now in my top five list of JAX favorites! There is good booth seating here and carry-out is available. Besides sandwiches, you'll also find soups, stews, salad options, street tacos, new world American food options, specialty choices (including spicy chicken curry, Nada's Arabic Macaroni, among others), kabobs, and more! The hard rock will play as you eat. It was loud when we came in for a while, but to their credit, they did lower the volume around the middle of our time there. Make a visit! This is a can't miss restaurant! Recommend: HIGHEST

A few of us decided to head out for lunch today. The group decided on Fast Eddy's. Let me say that mideast food is not my jam, but I rolled with it. The ladies in the party split the mixed grill Tikka plate with chicken and beef which looked amazing. They said it was outstanding. Very tender and flavorful. I stayed safe and had the star spangled burger and onion rings. The burger was cooked perfectly. Very juicy. The onion rings are very good with a panko type breading which stayed on the rings well. Another member of the party had the beef derby. I had a piece of this and it was extremely flavorful and very good. Sit down ordering with food and drinks brought to you. Service was quick, attentive and very personable. Parking was easy as it's a strip mall setting. Even though mideast isn't my thing, I wouldn't hesitate to go again.

Dannia D.

We had a good experience at Fast Eddy's, I ordered the beef tikka (small) which came with salad, rice, veggies and pita bread. As you can see in the picture is a lot of food! My husband ordered the chicken curry and we have leftovers for a couple of days. Both of the dishes we tried were pretty good and came out in a decent time, our waiter was friendly and quick. The ambience is good, the rock pictures on the walls were fun to look

I could write a book about how much I love this place and the owners. We have ate our way through most of the menu and we love it all. Owners are very friendly and welcoming and gracious. Very clean with plenty of parking. This place has a following for a reason!

Drove past this place many times, today we finally went in and it was amazing. The ambiance is fun, hard rock music and rock and roll posters on the wall. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Made us feel very welcome. My wife went with the spicy chicken curry and it tasted delicious! Great flavors and spice. I went with the Beef Eddy. Steak with veggies with garlic sauce. A lot of great tastes going on in the this pita wrap. Peppery with a good contrast in textures with cool, crunchy veggies. The onion rings were very good and very big. Both meals were very big and you're not leaving hungry. Highly recommended Fast Eddy's, we will be returning soon. read more

This place is awesome. The staff is friendly and knows the their dish in depth to provide recommendations. I came in slightly hungry and ordered the Beef Tikka. My appetite opened up once the food came. The smaller plate was well portioned. I loved how the seasoning and charcoal flavor was imparted into the veggies and beef. The veggies were tender and the beef was just right. The rice mixed well with the veggies and beef. Everything was topped with sumac seasoning. I love how the flavors come together in the dish. The restaurant was busy and the staff handled it. The team lead and patrons praised the staff for the excellent food. The overall atmosphere and ambiance is positive all around. I will definitely be coming back to try another dish. A well deserved 6 star review. read more

The service was incredible. The phone rang while I was there and she asked me if it would be alright to answer the phone. She then politely asked the person on the other line if it was ok to hold for a minute. This was my first time in, so I needed a little guidance. She was super helpful making suggestions and I was able to quickly place order. I asked for the food to go and walked outside until the food was ready. When I walked back inside they immediately handed me my food. I then changed my mind and ate at an available table outside. She returned a few minutes later and asked me if she could bring me some water. Food was excellent! And Service was refreshing. I will go back and appreciate that they went above and beyond! Highly recommend! read more

I don't even know where to start. This restaurant is amazing and the owner was so personable and engaging. From the time we entered to leaving, we were made to feel like family. The food was so flavorful and rich. We came late and were still cared for so well. Personally, we felt bad about staying until closing, but we got to talk a lot with the owner and he brought me out a sizable sample of the chicken stew. If you're wanting to try something different, I would get the magic carpet so you can try the range of different stews. You could also go with what you know. Hubby got the mixed plate of grilled meats and veggies. You'll be surprised at the love and seasoning that goes into the dish. Reminds me of when I cook at home. Definitely recommend and we will be going again. Get the mumba and garlic sauce and thank me later. Maybe ask for more than one lol It's different, but good. Kids eat free on Sundays! read more

I've never been to a sit down restaurant where the owners or servers asked me my name.. just to get to know the neighbors. It really made this restaurant even more welcoming. Both times I've been here Raed has come by the table to make sure everything is good and just to say hi. Jimmy has also been great as a server and takes the time to make recommendations and explain the menu. It really sets this place apart from other 'quick' restaurants where you can feel like that number they give you to put on the table. My friend and I were both on a meat free day and thought that middle eastern would be a great switch up. I ordered the falafel pita wrap and the fatoush salad. Falafel is kind of like another countries version of hush puppies.. with more complex batter :) it's made with chickpeas and lots of fresh herbs. They wrap that in a pita with some pickles, lettuce tomato and choice of sauces. The tzatziki is a classic yogurt sauce with cucumber garlic and herbs. They press the whole thing so the pita gets a little crusty. My friend had the magic carpet flight of curries how fun is that name. Lol she picked 3 veggie curries and it came with rice as well. The lentil was nice with a good tang! I definitely recommend the hummus and pita chips for an app. It was very tasty and fresh! read more

Unassuming gem in the Winn-Dixie plaza, with great staff and amazing flavors. Took my mom there for her birthday along with a few other family, and we enjoyed every moment. From their tasty take on hummus and chips to the delectable shawarma and falafel to the friendly folks who make you feel like family while you're there and explain their family's relationship to food. The beef Eddy had some of the juiciest, best-marinaded cut of meat I've ever had wrapped--and definitely not your typical spitfired and sliced meat. Everyone else loved the flavors in their entrées, as well, with the chicken Eddy, the falafel wrap, and the fries, which were pitch perfect in crunch, seasoning, and warmth. There are few places anymore where the quality of the food and service seem like they're worth the cost, but Fast Eddy's is it, and I'm already making plans to go back. read more

Bomb chicken sandwich with the side sauce that came from some cave in the homeland according to the owner of the restaurant. The chicken was well seasoned, and the sandwich was huge. I honestly could only eat half of the sandwich and the fries and had to take the rest home. The service was phenomenal, and Jai Alai on tap can't be beat. Check this place out! read more

When we read FAST we often think of fast food shoved thru a drive through window, well this FAST EDDY's is not that at all. It is REALLY GOOD, really fresh and cooked to order. We ordered take out for six, with some food allergies and it took over 25 minutes, so get the fast food thought out of your mind. Parking is plentiful, as it is located in a strip center with Winn Dixie and SERVICE IS ABOVE AND BEYOND. Cups of water while we waited, discussion on food prep with the chef, when part of our order was missed, they delivered it to our door 20 minutes later. Now that is commitment. The food: Cheesesteak - American cheese steak with a middle eastern twist, packs quite a spice kick but really good. Biryani - a rice dish that reminded me of Louisiana dirty rice, really flavorful. Grilled Vegetables - my favorite dish, I eat vegetation and the veggies were firm and delicious. Chicken Tika - a good dish my wife enjoyed fully. Just a hint of hot spice, but she loved it. Hummus - not like the versions I am used to, so hoping it is a family recipe, it was so good and served with crisp pita chips that were delicious on their own. Chicken Kabob - perfect according to my daughter. Baklava - oh my, flakey and crisp and not overly sweet, loved, loved, loved it. Sauces - they included a host of different sauces and for us to try, from sweet to go with baklava to spicy Buffalo mango to tzatziki yogurt sauce. To me these just were not a flavorful as I like, but then again, the food was so good I did not need it. It was a very minor thing. Cannot wait to go back to try a few other things on the menu, as they have multiple vegetarian choices I am sure my wife would like to try a few more too and this is a solid choice for middle eastern food. read more

Writing this review as we are finishing our meal - it's that good! We ordered the kids chicken tenders and fries for our daughter but with her diary allergy they offered to grill the chicken breast! So accommodating. The beef tikka skewer was so tender juicy and delicious, I wish I had a photo but I ate it too quick! The Hammurabi burrito was an explosion of flavor & the timen asfur was delicious !! The best part was the overall ambiance of everyone who works here. So welcoming, kind, personable - amazing!

Don't get me wrong, the food here was delicious, but the amazing hospitality and warm vibes is what I remember most and what will make me return! I opted for the falafel sandwich all the way with onion rings. The onion rings were perfect...warm, flavorful batter, crunchy. The sandwich was tasty as well, I would probably say slightly expensive with all the sauces though. I will definitely return to try more of the delicious food this place offers up! read more

Specialties

Fast Eddy's specializes in food with amazing flavor, atmosphere with cool vibes and treating our guests like they're joining us in our own home for a meal. We love learning guests names and making them feel like they're part of the family. Our family spice blend is what sets us apart from other middle eastern restaurant...come see for yourself.

History

Established in 2021.

Fast Eddy's represents all 1st generation Americans that grew up with two cultures. We grew up in classic small town Kentucky but had traditional middle eastern parents from Iraq. Our mother was an amazing cook and we had a blend of spices that our grandmother passed down to our mom that was different than any other families spices. It really gave our food amazing flavor. After many years of learning the industry and carving our own path, we decided it was time to join forces and share those amazing flavors and dishes with the public. We opened for business in March of 2021 and the response has been incredible. Our mother always told us that our food was so good because it was made with love, so we've carried that mentality over to our food/restaurant. Come see for yourself!

The side dishes were very flavorful, and I also purchased two drinks that were absolutely delicious. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and provided good customer service throughout my visit. The only thing is that they told me that they do not clean tripe in Korea which was hard to believe. I do want to share a concern regarding the preparation of the tripe soup. After beginning the meal, I noticed that the tripe did not appear to have been cleaned. At first, I wondered if this was simply the restaurant's style of preparation, but after researching further, I learned that improperly cleaned tripe can be both unpleasant and potentially unsafe to consume because tripe comes from the stomach lining of the animal. Uncleaned tripe may still contain food residue, digestive material, parasites, worms, bacteria, and strong bile or waste odors. This can potentially lead to issues such as foul smell, unpleasant taste, food poisoning, bacterial contamination including E. coli or Salmonella, and symptoms such as stomach cramps, vomiting, or diarrhea. Proper cleaning is generally considered an essential part of preparing tripe, especially in professional restaurants where customers would quickly notice if the cleaning process was incomplete. Overall, I appreciated the kindness of the staff, the quality of the drinks, and the excellent side dishes. I am only sharing my personal experience and concern specifically regarding the preparation of the tripe soup.

I got the pho with tendon and brisket and I opted to pay an extra $1 for the fresh noodles, but totally not worth it. The brisket was chewy and some of the tendon was inedible (had to pay $2 extra ) . The broth had a chemical taste to it like they didn't rinse their pots thoroughly enough. The one good thing I can say about the place is that they offer a plethora of Asian noodle dishes from Vietnamese to Filipino to Thai to Chinese. If I ever do go back, I'll definitely try something different.

The food and drinks are consistently great, and the vibe is perfect for a relaxed night out with friends. I went with four buddies and we basically turned the table into a family-style feast--everything we ordered was spot-on. We started with the meatballs and the Brussels sprouts as apps. Both were fantastic--the meatballs were juicy and packed with flavor, and the Brussels sprouts were perfectly crispy with just the right amount of char and seasoning. For mains we split a couple of pizzas and the lasagna. The lasagna is rich and comforting, but the star for me was the Meats pizza. That thing was loaded and so good I'm still thinking about it. The crust was crisp, the sauce was bright, and the toppings were generous without being greasy. Last but not least, we ended with the house-made ice cream. Holy cow--to die for is an understatement. Creamy, super flavorful, and the perfect sweet note to finish the meal. I'm not even a huge dessert person and I was scraping the bowl.

If you're looking for one of those hidden gems that feels personal, intentional, and consistently so good, this is it. Fast Eddy's Mideast is everything I love about a local spot. It's small, unpretentious, and has an open kitchen where you can literally see your food being made fresh. There's something about that transparency that just hits different as you know you're getting quality, and you can feel the care that goes into every plate. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with attention to detail. It's the kind of place where you take a bite and immediately can feel like you're someone's home eating a home-cooked meal. But what really sets this place apart is the hospitality. The staff is warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in your experience. It feels like they want you there. That kind of energy is rare and makes you want to keep coming back. Jacksonville has a lot of food options, but places like this are special. Simple, authentic, and done really, really well. Definitely a go-to spot. read more

Fast Eddy's Quick Middle East is an absolute gem that deserves every bit of praise it receives. From the moment you take your first bite, you're greeted with clean, fresh flavors that simply burst in your mouth. The use of herbs and aromatics is nothing short of masterful, hitting your senses with every dish. What's truly remarkable is the variety and consistency of excellence--I've frequented this establishment numerous times, trying something new with each visit, and I have yet to be disappointed. Fast Eddy's is a testament to culinary innovation and dedication to quality, making it a must-visit destination for anyone craving an Middle Eastern culinary adventure read more

Fast Eddy's Quick Mideast is a total gem for anyone craving big, bold flavors. Their Beef Tikka is phenomenal--packed with dynamic spices and so tender it practically melts in your mouth. My wife tried the Mansour Street Tacos and declared them the best tacos she's ever eaten, hands down. Fast Eddy's knows how to spice things up and keep you coming back for more. The servers are incredibly helpful and friendly, adding to the welcoming vibe of the place. Plus, the prices are ridiculously inexpensive, making it a great spot for fantastic food without breaking the bank. If you're in the mood for something deliciously different, this place is a must-try. read more

The three stars are for the owner/manager who is an affable guy. The iced tea was also okay. The food, however, was inedible. The hummus was swimming in olive oil and the pita chips were way too salty. The tabbouleh salad accompanying my meal was lacking in bulgur and tomatoes, so it was basically parsley drowning in lemon juice. The "spicy" chicken curry had an unusual taste that I think was probably cinnamon. I was expecting some zest; it was bland. I've lived all over the world, and this was not representative of middle eastern food, in my humble opinion. Not going back. read more

After reading numerous glowing reviews about Fast Freddy's, we simply had to try it out for ourselves. The food was absolutely delicious and the owners were extremely friendly and helpful in explaining the various menu options. They even took the time to suggest some of their personal favorites! Needless to say, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal and are eagerly looking forward to going back and trying more items from their extensive selection. read more

Tried Fast Eddie's based upon the 5 star reviews and they are right on target. Had the chicken sandwich, went back the following week and had the falafel, both fresh and delicious, may be the friendliest restaurant in town. My wife had the fattoush salad with chicken and loved it both times, definitely going back. read more

Fast Eddys is a culinary gem, especially for soup enthusiasts. The stew and soup flight is a hearty delight that ensures you won't leave hungry. Impeccable service, with a waiter who articulately explained every dish, and a management team that exudes hospitality. A definite return is on the horizon. read more

Stopped by here in a whim. Spent a day in Jax to check on property in the St. John's area. Yelped this place and met the owner and a patron who were THE COOLEST people I've met in awhile. Definitely check this place out. The food was amazing but it was second to the atmosphere, imagine that. read more
