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!

Fast Eddy's is our neighborhood hangout. Does that mean we're biased? Maybe. But we'd never have made it to this point if the food wasn't out of this world. From more traditional dishes and family recipes to putting a unique twist on American foods to a straight up phenomenal burger and fries, the guys at Fast Eddy's can handle any craving you bring in the door. My favorite items are the Lentil Stew & Timen Asfur from the "Mideast" side of the table and the Derby Filly & Star-Spangled Burger for those days when you're just hankering for an American classic. The food is the star of the show but the guys who are making it all happen are part of the magic. Go in and give them a try, you'll be back. read more

Our first time today. Our server China was super knowledgeable and helpful in describing everything and with recommendations. EVERYTHING we got was so good and flavorful. All of the soups/stews on the sampler were really good. We did the okra, green bean and curry stews....all delicious. Falafel app 10/10. China also brought us out a bunch of sauces, i wish I remembered what they were but who cares bc we liked all of them lol. The wicked garden app with zucchini, mushrooms, eggplant & okra was perfectly fried not greasy and we ate the entire thing. It was a large portion. Steak tikka kabobs with the upgrade special turmeric rice (definitely worth it) again was delicious. We took a little bit of everything home and it was just as good the 2nd time. Raed (one of owners) came by the table a few times to check on us. Great food!!!Great staff! Awesome vibes!! We drove from Baldwin to try this place and YESSSSS We'll be back!! read more

(i ordered 3 of them this time.) It's always a good sign to see a restaurant full at 2 pm and I can see why. every employee is friendly and shows actual care and love of the guests. I can't say enough good things. this is my second review of this restaurant and I live over 2 hours away. I still can wait to come back. Jimmy and Raed are incredible at taking care of guests. read more

I never write reviews ... but I am making an exception here due to the fact that 1) the owner could not have been nicer and more helpful and accommodating in preparing an order for me and, 2) the food was damn delicious! Serving size was plenty! Hummus, I think he said it was his mother's recipe, was divine as was the tabouli salad and the tzaziki. I ordered a plate of chicken shawarma and it was a large portion and had great flavor. I have tried a few other places in town and they just did not quite hit the mark. It was served over rice with roasted red and green peppers and onions and mushrooms. I will definitely be going back for more! Thanks for your help today! Real friendly place! 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!

I would say that the pastries are not my favorite in all of JAX but they are consistently good and high quality. The scones aren't as crumbly and dry as I typically like and the cinnamon roll was a bit drier than I'd expect. However the cream cheese topping and ratio of icing to roll was perfect. The thing that makes them standout is that their staff is wonderful. They greet you upon entering and helpful to answer questions. I LOVE that they always have a sample of one of their breads. It sets them apart. I've changed my mind several times to try whatever they were sampling. The shop has some decent seating inside and some limited seating outside. The shop is always clean and I like the display window where you can see all of their delicious items. They are conveniently located off of the 295 freeway

Actually, I think the one time I went when I was already in the area, they told me the coupon I had had to be used at dinner time. So, I ended up leaving. I finally tried this place over a year after it opened and I didn't find it to be anything too special. I like the fact that they had a number of chicken subs and I was torn between the chicken teriyaki and the steak bomb. I ended up deciding I wanted to try sort of a Philly cheesesteak and so I got the steak bomb without mayo. We also got a half tuna sub and a kids turkey sub combo. I was very disappointed by the cheesesteak. I'm not exactly sure what "bomb" means, but I was expecting it to sort of be bursting with flavor. It really had no flavor, despite visibly having onions, peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, and cheese. There was oddly a strip of bacon sitting on top (not chopped into the meat) , which was really the only component that added any seasoning as it was a little salty. I ended up having to put both ketchup and barbecue sauce on it at home to give it some seasoning. The tuna sub fared better, although it was a bit liquidy so the bread was soggy. The kids turkey sub combo was just that, turkey and white bread. The portion was very good though for a kids meal as it appeared to be an entire 6-inch sub and a small order of fries with a drink. that was definitely a good deal. If you haven't been, note that they only offer white bread, no bread, or sandwich toppings put on a salad All in all, this probably wouldn't be a place I would return to unless I wanted to try the chicken teriyaki sub. But I will say that the worker who packaged my order was very friendly and the restaurant was clean. I was a little concerned about the fate of this place as nobody was in there eating, but hopefully they are doing well.

I ordered from the Dynamic Duo (sandwich & soup combo) menu. I picked the Reuben and Chicken Tortilla Soup because it's been a minute since I've had either. The Reuben was good with my one critique being that I could've used a little more Thousand Island on it. The soup was good as well and not too spicy. I always order Chicken Tortilla and hope for the best because I've had it swing way past my threshold for heat but this didn't. It has a kick for sure but not too bad. My wife ordered the Hot Honey Chicken & Yolk Biscuit Sandwich. She really liked it with the biscuit itself exceeding what she expected. Like me, her only small issue with that she liked that hot honey so much, she would've liked a little more on it. That's something she knows to ask for next time though, so no biggie. We sat at the bar and service was great from everyone we interacted with. This was out third time here since they opened. My wife pointed out that she liked her first visit and this one better than the second. She had a regular platter the second time, so she thinks sticking with their specialties is the best way to go.

Midtown Table - My Second Visit Was Even Better Than the First!…read moreThis was my second time at Midtown Table and I'm officially hooked. 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. Service was friendly and attentive, the drinks were solid, and the whole evening felt like a win. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and book a table.

Today was our first time coming to this restaurant…read more We received a $50 gift card through an Instagram drawing so we didn't have an actual gift card when we arrived. I wasn't really sure how it was going to work out -- but when we arrived we took a look at the menu and then explain the situation to the friendly cashier at the counter. There were no issues from there. We spent about $50 on two meals and two drinks (not including tip). We ordered the Burrito Mexicano, Pink Protein Pancakes (with eggs), Morning Energizer (I believe that's what it was called), & a matcha latte. The pancakes were made using beet flour which you can definitely taste. I actually enjoy the taste of beets but if you don't, maybe don't order those. The eggs weren't our favorite thing in the world, but they were warm & got the job done. The order also came with a variety of fresh fruit. I appreciated that I didn't come to any piece of fruit that was overly ripe. I really liked the burrito but next time I think I would add some kind of breakfast meat to it. Accompanying me for the meal was my 15 month old daughter. When we arrived, I didn't see any high chairs. I was a little concerned about how the meal was going to go without one... but after we ordered and sat down the hostess grabbed a highchair for us (which was clean). My favorite things we ordered were the two drinks. My daughter and I actually both drink those together and surprisingly her favorite was the morning energizer (which had the beet juice). We sat indoors, but there is somewhat of an outdoor patio if the weather was nice and you wanted to sit outdoor. Indoor seating had a variety of options from comfy chairs (that gave coffee shop vibes), to regular dining chairs. I also appreciated that though there was some music playing in their speakers -- It wasn't too loud. Something that really impressed me was: the second we finished a plate and pushed it aside (so my 15 month old wouldn't play with it) the hostess immediately took it away from us. There was no wait. The complementary water that is brought to the table tasted clean and without chlorine. All of the food was fresh tasting, and we enjoyed the interactions we had with all of the staff we spoke to. The women's restroom was one of the cleanest I have been in and it had a luxury vibe to it.

If you call the restaurant, it won't let you talk to anyone there and instead you get a message that recommends sending a message through their website. So that's what I did. Days later, and I still have no response from the incompetent leadership at Dave's Hot Chicken. I would very much like to speak to someone that is either an area or corporate leader. How do I reach them since I'm having to file a Better Business Bureau complaint and a chargeback with my credit card just from this experience where apparently you don't give a damn about your customers. Congratulations on the cursed location. Out of all the bad experiences we had at Pollo Tropical, none were this bad and clearly this location is operating without any training or leadership.

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
