Cons are the hectic parking due to being in University City area and good service being inconsistent. On this last visit, I arrived 15-20 minutes before close. My food was ready so it was not big deal but another customer that walked in with me was quickly told that they were closing in a rude tone. Why have a closing time if you are going to pack up before then. I could see maybe 5 minutes before but I felt overall bad for the customer who took her time who was just trying to order a salad.

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.

She gave us great recs too! The Persian Garden was great. I'm not a big fan of ordering coffee/espresso/lattes but the rose flavor was something I didn't expect to like. The baba ganouj and beetroot tzatziki were both hits for the family. The baba ganouj had the smoky flavor I was looking for and the tzatziki was fresh and light. The pita was thick, soft, and warm, perfect for dipping. The kofta, tuna tartare, and crispy grape leaves weren't too bad. The kofta is quite large and the lamb didn't taste too gamey at all. The arugula and tahini really brightened the flatbread. I enjoyed the tuna tartare but I was looking for more of the tuna flavor. As for the crispy grape leaves, it was a bit like an eggroll but mushy inside. I wasn't the biggest fan of this and tzatziki dipping sauce but that's just me. Finally, the chicken mohammar and grilled kofta were both great! We enjoyed the chicken mohammar much more though. The sauce was smoky and savor while the chicken was extremely tender. The pita was perfect to encapsulate the chicken and soak up the sauce! As for the grilled kofta, we did like the wild rice and lamb. The arugula and onion went great with the lamb. It was a great introduction to mediterranean food for my parents! I'm glad we came here and I'd consider coming back!

I hoped that this place could continue their quality service when they first launched as it quickly became my favorite. Unfortunately, their customer service has done a complete nose dive. The people working the front just simply don't care. Terrible attitudes. Hanging up on customers. Forgetting to put it orders. Look, even if you're busy you can still respect your customers. There is never a good excuse to treat the people that support your business like trash. Two starts because the food is still good (when they actually get it to you properly). read more

Now I know that a lot of these pizza spots have long menus but it makes you wonder how fresh everything is.

Don't get me wrong, I love greasy food as much as the next person but I would say it's slightly excessive.
