This was my first time trying mideastern food and I am IN LOVE! We came here on my lunch break because it had the word "fast" in it and sounded interesting. When we walked in and seen it was a sit down restaurant we got a little nervous that we might not have enough time so we didn't get to spend a lot of time looking at the menu and ordered quickly, BUT we ended up making some excellent choices anyways! The falafel and Biryani rice were both amazing! The rice had so much flavor and the portion was HUGE. My husband and I split both and we still ended up taking it home! We will be back to explore the menu and introduce the place to friends and family! Can't wait to try the curry! Keep up the awesome work! read more

Always looking for a new place. Even better and new middle eastern place with Falafels, but the menu has got a bit for everyone. Wow! What a greeting! Asked if return or first time. They went through the menu and explained dishes and sauces. The restaurant is VERY clean. Tables are cleared and sanitized when customers leave. Self serve drink station, also kept clean. I had a basic Falafel sandwich w/fries. The falafel balls were crunchy, I like, and served with lettuce, tomato, sauce, and a little different... pickle slices. I'm more use to cucumber slices. Another twist was it was pressed!!!! I liked that too. My better half was hoping for a Gyro, but no Gyro. So she had the Star Spangles Burger with fries. Awesome!!!! She could only eat 1/2. We both loved the crunchy fries. Rock and Alternative music playing and billboards hanging on the walls. There are also TV's for those who don't have someone across the table. Fast Eddys has got some interesting specials that would be nice to try. Great owners.... Really enjoyed talking with them. P.S. Don't forget the homemade baklava. read more

We had heard such great things about Fast Eddys and decided to try it. Wow. It definitely lived up to the hype. We were greeted by both owners, told the restaurant's history and they took the time to go over the entire menu with us. They are clearly very passionate about their restaurant and we loved hearing family stories about how their mom cooked for them growing up. Everyone was so friendly and helpful and the music posters on the wall were a fun bonus. The food was outstanding. We ordered the egg rolls, kebabs, and the tacos (daily special). Even the side salads and white rice were incredible! We can't wait to go back and try more! read more

I had seen some good reviews on this place and since I was in the area I decided to see for myself. The customer service was excellent and made you feel right at home. The food was fantastic. I ordered the stuffed cucumber and it was delicious. Also the desert baklava was amazing. That will a must any time I go here. read more

Excellent food and great group of guys running this place! Good addition to the neighborhood for sure. I'd highly recommend for dine in or take out! read more

I went to Fast Eddie's this past weekend and my boyfriend and we were impressed with the welcoming atmosphere and of course the AMAZING FOOD. We both ordered the chicken eddy however, my boyfriend got the "Greek Freak" style which included all of their sauces. I was a little jealous of his because of how well all the sauces blended together without making the pita soggy. The owners went out of their way to make sure everyone was enjoying their meals and even gave us some recommendations to try next time. We'll definitely be back and we're so glad to have such a quick and delicious middle Eastern food spot near our home. read more

Literally stop what you are doing. Stop now and run. Run to Fast Eddy's and have some of the best Middle Eastern food you'll ever have in your life. We stopped on the way to a concert in Jacksonville (and right after IKEA) and wanted a good meal before a night out. We were waited on by Ed (as in Fast Eddy's), who ran through the entire menu and gave great suggestions. We decided on splitting the Big Beef Eddy (think a super steak gyro) and put the full "Greek Freak" sauces on it, which were 4 sauces and hummus that take your sandwich over the top. Talk about a flavor bomb! No time for pictures, as it evaporated in seconds. The fries were crispy, well-seasoned, and incredibly tasty. Then Ed, who is just a good guy and seemed to just know everyone, told us we had to try the spicy chicken curry (a family recipe of 100+ years)! And my goodness, I'm glad we did. It was spicy, yet flavorful, like my mouth had fireworks. My partner couldn't get enough of the curry! Top it all off with great service, friendly people, and actually reasonable prices (it's pricier than your average fast casual restaurant, but honestly after trying it, we think these prices a DEAL), and we'll be back for sure! Okay, now you're done reading, so why aren't you at Fast Eddy's yet?? read more

Great food, I tried many of their selections and loved every dish. In addition their service is awesome

Awesome food and service. Owner is very present and will make recommendations if needed. Need to return ASAP.

Another great dining experience.. Great food and great service provided by both Justin and Will. High scores on everything!!

I absolutely LOVE this place. They have a wide variety of items in their menu. They've got Mediterranean, Curries, and American cuisine with a zesty twist. They have a delicious lunch menu that has several curry dishes and Mediterranean inspired food served with white rice or other flavored rice. The food is always made fresh to order and they have terrific servers. I'll be coming here with my family for years to come. Thank you Jimmy for the great service and for making my kid always feel special whenever we come in! read more

I totally get why this place has 5 stars! The food is amazing. The service was even better. The owners are personable and inviting. I can't say enough about the food. Just exquisite. It's now a favorite of mine. read more

Ok - so this place is owned by a couple of bro's from my home state of Kentucky who were raised on Iraqi food by their mother - if f I have the story right. The menu is pretty eclectic and the dishes are nice sized and very tasty. However, while the food is great - what makes this place special is that they not only greet you - they remember you. This place is like the "Cheer's" of middle eastern food, complete with a great bar - serving some local ancient city on draft - and the best music ever, that's right, 90's grunge. When I heard Chris Cornell singing and saw all the awesome posters on the wall - I knew I was home. This place is special - not only for the food, but for the people. Check it out. Yeah that's right - do good I reviewed it twice! read more

Good choices for Middle Eastern food in an all-American rock and roll ambiance. The staff was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was very casual and laid back. I'd eat there again if I lived close by. read more

First time at Fast Eddy's. I'm from St. Louis Mo and was in Jax visiting my daughter and her family. My son in law, grandson, and I visited Fast Eddy's for carry-out. Customer service was top notch!! I don't say this lightly, but when I say it felt like family, it felt like family!! On top of the outstanding customer service, the food was on point. We had the steak and chicken fillies, booreg beef, hummus and pita, and my grandson smashed the kids Mac n Cheese and fries. When I'm in Jax again, best believe I will visit Fast Eddy's again. I believe the gentleman who helped me may have been one of the owners. He purposely asked my son in law our names and I would venture to say that's the way he treat all of his customers. Sorry brotha, I don't remember your name, but keep doing what what you guys are doing. I appreciate you calling us by name after we got our food and was exiting. Great experience, awesome customer service, and amazing food. read more

What great food and people! Raed was super attentive and helpful. Wonderful story too their parents are from Iraq and moved to Kentucky to make a better life for their family.The brothers moved here in 2005 I believe! They love their football, rock and roll , and nascar too. And they make some amazing food as well! They have amazing falafel, stews, sandwiches and more. If you are nearby stop in for some fast, tasty food and meet some great people. Can't wait to go back soon! read more

Fast Eddy's Quick Mideast - Tuesday night dinner club - Middle Eastern Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

True to the words of many about Fast Eddy's Quick Mideast. The owners are super nice and the food really good. I will be back to try more. This is the derby fillies beef. The meat is super good and spicy. The flavor lingered in my mouth after each bite. I would get side of rice not onion rings (bit over done). read more

Great food and service! Feels like your eating real homemade food. Must try the stews!

Incredible food and amazing service. We will definitely be going back! The people treat you like family. read more

This place hits the spot!! Service is . Raed may be the nicest business owner I've encountered in this area. You can tell they put heart and soul into their food. Booreg beef egg rolls, spicy chicken curry, timen asfur (turmeric rice), Arabic pot roast, and Hashemite rice. It was the perfect comfort food on this rainy night! Highly recommend and we will definitely be back. read more

Wow!!! This place was an incredible find for my mom and I. I had the Derby Fillies she had the falafel. William, the owner served us and was a great guy. Don't miss out on this place. It's special. read more

My second time eating here, took a year to get back, and am wondering why it took so long. I ordered the Roast Chicken Stew which comes with your choice of rice. I went with the Arabic style rice because the photo of it looked amazing. I appreciate the photos, helps out with the decision making, which is difficult here. Everything smells so good. The chicken in the stew was so tender and flavorful. The potatoes were just as good, not too much of them, and the rice. The rice could be a meal of its own. Plenty of food, and great service. read more

We really enjoyed our first time at Fast Eddy's! The service was great and the food was fantastic. We recently moved back to Jax and our favorite gyro place had changed their hours and we were starving. We decided to give Fast Eddy's a try and we are so glad we did! They seem to have a bit of a twist on middle eastern food and they did a really good job. The Chicken Eddy was incredibly flavorful and the fries were cooked perfectly. Highly recommend giving this place a try, the guys here seem to really care about their business and it shows through the food and the service! read more

Great service, great food. Best fries I've ever had in my life. Large portions, reasonably priced.

Maybe the tastiest food in Jacksonville. Bold flavors. Very welcoming and friendly people make every visit a pleasure. Decor not so great. Get past it or miss out on friends and food. read more

Amazing service. Super friendly and helpful owner. Loved my spicy chicken curry and such a big portion. Kids even loved their food Mac and cheese and burger. Even loved the fries. read more

I love falafel and have been wanting some for ages. I stopped in to see what they have on my way back to work after stopping in at the Winn-Dixie. I was happy to see they did indeed have falafel on the menu. I ordered the wrap with fries. They had me hooked with the fries! So flavorful and crispy. Then I tried the wrap and now I'm trying to decide what I'll get next time I go! Highly recommend and can't wait to try more dishes! read more

The owners meet and greet each customer and make sure that you leave satisfied. The food is made fresh using family recipes rooted in Iraqi cuisine. The beer is cold, the food is hot and the service is warm and welcoming. The decor is not what you would expect. It's a classic rock theme with music to match. It's a unique American melting pot experience. If you've never tried Iraqi cuisine you might want to give Fast Eddy's a try. You'll be coming back for all the reasons stated above. read more

I love this place so much! I've been going since they have opened. Clean and quality food. Delicious too. Great staff and owners.

Just to add to my previous reviews...we ordered a bunch of food again here this week and as usual the food was awesome! Problem was we ordered and paid for the large sizes but received the smaller portion sizes. I called them and they were totally classy and made a note to take care of this on our next take out order! Simply the BEST!! read more

We have been here multiple times and it has been consistently excellent. The food is always fresh and delicious, and the service is nothing short of exceptional. They go out of their way to make you feel like you're family, and it is clear that they take pride in their work. The portions are insane, you will never leave hungry, but remember to grab their baklava on the way out for a sweet treat later!! read more

I've never tried middle eastern cuisine and this was the perfect place to start. Our server explained everything to us and I decided to try the spicy chicken curry. Yummy! It came with white rice and a small, delicious salad. We were checked on frequently and the food was very good. The portions were generous and I had enough for dinner that night! Can't wait to go back and try more things on the menu that sounded delicious. I went on a Thursday and they had customers coming in constantly. The sign of a great restaurant!! read more

Fast Eddy's quick middle east was some of the best Middle-eastern food I have had on either coast. Loved the stews and curries. Definitely get the sampler plate for lunch. read more

The staff was amazing -upbeat engaging attentive! The flavors were good but the food was just too salty for us

Love it! If you crave something different in Jacksonville, this is the place! The service is great and very informative. Loved hearing about the story of how this family owned small business came to be. I have been and ate in Iraq twice, and the food here was even better! Love the décor and the music! Growing up around rock and metal, this place is very nostalgic. Kinda like the middle eastern Hard Rock Café! The beef & chicken tikkas, plus the fahsulia hit the spot of what I was craving for. Can't wait to go back and try different things! Thank you Wiam and Raed! read more

Super cool owners. Friendly and the food was off the chain. In a food coma about to take a nap. Steak kebab with garlic sauce and pita with the rice. read more
