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.

The egg noodles are the stand out and are al dente. Lots of toppings like kale and cilantro included. I think the sauces also aren't afraid to taste strong and powerful. However the salad options were pretty bland and the one time I got them I was disappointed. I like the online ordering a lot but it works so well that it gets chaotic at lunchtime and at time messy in the seating areas for lunch. Get around the wait by ordering ahead of time. They've made a few mistakes in adding custom ingredients before but fix it quickly

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.

This restaurant was highly recommended as somewhere to get a great meal. It was lunchtime and I…read morelove eating Greek food. 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.

Service by Kate was impeccable, attentive and not intrusive, friendly and not obsequious. I had just come from Goldie's where I ingested a tehina shake and shwarma spiced fries so wasn't super hungry, but that didn't stop me from ordering two sides made into a meal: - side of salmon, 5/5, I don't usually enjoy eating the skin on the salmon but this one was perfectly crispy and so tasty! - side of broccolini, 5/5, tender and crisp at the same time, deliciousness of flavors This combo really was the perfect meal to offset all those fries I had just had! Everyone enjoyed their meals including: - cheese platter - nicoise salad - truffle fries - bacon wrapped dates - seafood salad (had three very large shrimp, real crabmeat) Highly recommend Louie Louie.

We're a sucker for their carrots, sweet potatoes, and array of vegetable options. They have a variety of protein options but we almost always go for their chicken thighs. The staff is generally hit or miss -- some are friendly and some want you to keep the line moving at all costs. One of our favorites! What you didn't come here for: - Water: There is free water from a dispenser but the water has a strange flavor to it, likely Philly's fault. - Restrooms: There is a large single occupancy restroom with a Pin Code. - Accessibility: There is a second floor seating area that is optional. Otherwise everything is available on the first floor. - Seating: There are enough seats on the first floor that you'll usually be able to get a seat. If you can't, there are plenty more seats up stairs on the second floor. - Will it fill you up? Probably. It's sized for one meal though it's not massive either. If you're really hungry you may want to order an extra side. - Dietary Notes: They have so many options it's insane. Their website has solid information on both allergens and the ingredients that go in the food so you know exactly what you're getting into.

Tofu protein wasn't a bad size, too, but a little dry. Sauces were ok but not what I was looking for (miso was not very flavorful at all, mostly just soy).

Staff were courteous but brisk, keeping the line moving and packing up meals to go. No recycling for the bottles/cans though?
