    Inside of restaurant
    Anisha Y.

    My partner said he liked this better than Cava!! There are so many different types of hummus, which I loved. I just got a bunch of different hummus varieties, some feta, and some warm pita, which was absolutely delicious. My partner got the bowl with rice, chicken, and harissa spice, so there were a lot of different flavors here -- will come back and get a bowl for myself!

    Sweet Potato Fries

    Hummus Republic has a fun concept of "build your own" Mediterranean bowls and wraps. Their portions are generous and there's lots of unique combos to try. I had the falafel bowl with a cous cous base, spinach, regular hummus, corn, tomatoes, feta and tahini. They give you a side of pita with it was well! Very flavorful hummus (it's in their name, so it better be good!) and good value for what you get. My boyfriend and I split their sweet potato fries which were also pretty solid. This is a great option if you want a quick bite near, but not in, the outlets. Friendly staff, large lot and clean, bright space made this all around a worthwhile lunch outing.

    Lamb & Beef gyro bowl! Yum!
    Dennis R.

    1st review of the new year! I recently paid a visit based on good reviews from a friend. I've been to plenty of Mediterranean restaurants, but this was my first time having a "build a bowl" situation. While you can also order a wrap or pita, I went with a bowl. On to the food! I went with a beef & lamb gyro bowl with my choice of fixins'. You also get a choice of hummus, and can choose up to three kinds. I forgot what kind of hummus it was, but the green one was my favorite! Also, the gyro was super flavorful! I devoured this bowl, and would love to be back again! The service was great as well!

    The reviews looked promising but sadly I was disappointed. The service was okay. I had to ask what was in each tray as they weren't labeled. Obviously not everything needs to be labeled but some ingredients would have been nice. When I asked to identify ingredients , the server seemed a little aggravated. At the end I saw some crunchy chickpeas off to the side. I wish I had known. The place was clean. The menu and instructions were clear. I was hoping there was some kind of list of what would be good together but I suppose you can't go wrong. However, the hummus choices were overwhelming. The dressings were also overwhelming. Do I pick just 1 or would 3 hummus flavors be overpowering each other? What dressings go with what? I discovered that 3 hummus flavors was not a good idea, especially the feta flavored one. And the 2 dressings I ordered did not exactly work. The rice under my bowl was dry and flavorless. I wanted the crispy chicken but was told I had to wait 5-10 minutes so I couldn't order that. There was no sign or notice that said it would take 5-10 minutes. Why isn't that already prepared? It was lunchtime so why not be ready? I chose half beef/lamb gyro meat and half mushroom instead. The mushrooms were amazing! That was the only thing that saved my bowl. The meat tasted freezer-burned. I ate around the meat what I could. Mostly mushroom, the original hummus and eggplant hummus, and threw the rest away. I don't think I'll be back. The whole experience wasn't great.

    You get to make your own bowl!

    The Food is Delicious if you are looking for a healthier options and going to Livermore! The Service is great kind staff and very patient. As they have tons of options and you can build your own protein bowl! The ambience is amazing clean and welcome in space! They are located across the San Francisco Outlets which is totally walking distance and also located in a shopping plaza area where you can still shop after eating!

    Mushroom Shawarma Bowl (Vegan) + eggplants slices (extra charge)
    Holly S.

    Really disappointed in the mushroom shawarma... it was like rubber, no j/k. The three hummus flavors I tried were good: Olive, harissa, and eggplant. I added the extra eggplant slices and charred jalapeño. I like the garlic jalapeño tahini and both hot sauces. But I can say I didn't eat the bowl once I was seated and began exhausting my jaw chewing through the rubber mushroom shawarma... although it could have been two meals (the serving size)... it went straight to the . Was also excited to try the tahini shake, which says it's vegan on the menu in the restaurant, but when I confirmed it was vegan when I ordered it, the workers informed me it's no longer vegan :/ would be nice if the menu was updated. Interior has enough space for dining in. Plastic cutlery and recycle bowls. Won't go back for another try.

    It was my first time experiencing Mediterranean food as a build-your-own entree. It was nice being able to customize and try the various options they had for a base, for a protein, and for hummus and spreads. I ordered a bowl (which comes with a warm pita bread). For the base, I got the yellow rice and couscous. For the spread, I got the traditional hummus and the zesty feta. For the protein, I got the lamb & beef gyro. For the toppings, I got the cucumber, red onions, beets, and crumbled feta. For dressing, I got the traditional tahini and the tzatziki. It tasted good! I enjoyed it very much. The bowl was pretty good in size, too. I wasn't able to finish it in one sitting and took my leftovers home.

    We got two bowls, looked a bit messy and items kind of got lost in the bowl but it tasted yummy. The food for price is pretty good. Place is casual. The staff was tired as we went end of day but he was nice.

    Chicken Shawarma Rice Bowl with everything and one of their spicy sauces
    Eric L.

    Really like the bowls from Hummus Republic, everything tastes great, and I like the way you can customize what you want to eat. I've mostly tried their chicken shawarma bowls, but am curious to try their vegetarian options as well. Both times I've visited, the staff have been very patient, kind, and accommodating. Clean basic tables for dining in. Reasonable prices, hearty portions. Lots of parking available. Location close to the freeway.

    Build Your Own Bowl
    Dave D.

    Hummus Republic is a decent Mediterranean style quick food restaurant across the street from the outlet malls. The place is clean and the service is friendly. They're pretty efficient and fundamentally not that expensive. With a name Hummus Republic, I was expecting something like Orens with home made hummus bowls and wraps. Actually this is more like a chipotle style build a bowl where you get three spoonfuls of hummus along with everything else (rice, salad, chicken, toppings etc). The food was decent but not extraordinary in any way. The hummus tastes like something straight from the grocery store, but the other ingredients seemed fresh. It's better than anything inside of the outlet mall so I guess l I'll go back sometime.

    Bowl (13.95)+ beef & lamb gyro (+2)
    Victor G.

    Hummus Republic is a "Modern Mediterranean Kitchen" operating on a Chipotle model of "DYI" with Wraps, Pitas, Bowls as the main vehicles. Decided to go for a bowl (13.95) to go with organic Med. Couscous as the base. Added mix greens. Should have added other greens too. Servers politely, efficiently scooped out all i requested. Not much decor. Just menus, pics. Added unlimited toppings: hummus, red cabbage, olives, tomatos, red onions, beets, fresh herbs, fried jalepenos, white cabbage, chopped cucumbers, chickpea croutons, crumbled feta, street mix, kalamata olives, tahini sauce. Added beef & lamb gyro (+2) Took a few pics, mixed it all up later. Actually plentiful & tasty. Shoulda got more greens. 4.5 stars..

    David V.

    First time eating at this establishment, WOW! I opted for the bowl, spinach base, 3 scoops of hummus (traditional, Harissa, and eggplant), onions, tomatoes, cucumber, red cabbage, topped off with garlic jalapeño, roasted red pepper, and traditional Tahini! Flavor explosion, definitely will be visiting this place again!!

    Bowl with 3 kinds of hummus
    June W.

    Great bowl with hummus, spinach, farmer's mix lettuce, garbanzo beans, couscous, 3 kinds of hummus, mushroom shawarma and tahini. All was good. Especially loved the harissa hummus, good flavor. The mushroom shawarma wasn't as flavorful as I thought it could've been though. Good counter prep speed. Casual atmosphere.

    I'm a vegetarian. Do you fry/grill falafel in the same oil as other meat items?

    they don't fry/grill anything in the restaurant, it is all pre-made

    Is the meat and poultry halal?

    Hello Tala, Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, we do not offer halal meat options at this time.

As you might have guessed based on the font choice of the front sign, this is definitely run by members of the Supreme Master Ching Hai group, and if you know other restaurants run by this group, you will know what to expect here as well. The food is accordingly Asian fusion with a healthy dose of Vietnamese, and features a lot of fresh and tasty vegetables and the obligatory slightly odd naming scheme, heh. My husband and I happen to really enjoy the food at these types of places, and Blossom Vegan was happily no exception. I got the vegetable chow fun dish, which was loaded with nice veggies, and my husband got the tofu banh mi (which I think was called a Saigon sandwich or something like that). Both were great! The decor is actually a little less strongly influenced by the Supreme Master Ching Hai branded items than some other such places, and I think the wall mural is cute. The location is clean and comfortable, and the staff is friendly and reasonably attentive, but it seems you do go up front to pay rather than paying at the table. I don't anticipate being in this area again soon, but I am happy to know a location like this is out here for any future excursions into the area! We'll definitely be back again if that happens!

He recommended the Cali sauce, and I said "Okay, I'll go with your recommendation." I didn't know that he was going to charge me for the sauce--$.75.
