Vegan Middle Eastern Salad

Great middle eastern restaurant for whoever is missing the taste of home after turning vegan/vegetarian. I haven’t had shawarma in years and I was able to have a vegan shawarma wrap at Aleph. I ordered it in a wrap and my friend ordered it in a bowl. The wrap was tastier because the flavors were all in one bite. Both came with sodes of fatoush which was decent but lacking of salt and olive oil in my opinion.The menu could use some updating to have more options but it was a great experience!

Atmosphere was nice and feels good to eat here. I think I want to come back if the prices were not so high. For example I feel like the beyond meat sausage I could have bought at Costco too for a fraction of the price I got here. Coffee tahini and date smoothie was a very creative drink on their menu, I liked it. The egg substitute tofu scramble was also interesting as a center piece for the shakshouka and worth trying again. The shakshouka tomato base was more basic with just flavours of tomato and cumin though and less interesting to me. I didn’t enjoy all of the pickled sides, they had the same sour flavour throughout and the acidity didn’t strike a balance with the already sour tomato sauce.

Delicious food . I had best felafel sandwich

Delicious! Driven past this place countless times and didn’t know it was there. Went for wife’s birthday and was amazed. Great food and good service. Glad we had a reservation as it was busy. Highly recommend the Shwarma Wraps and Brussels sprouts they were amazing.

Had a very enjoyable meal here. First time visit but will return.

What a nice place! Tons of natural sunlight coming in, creating a warm and bright environment. The food is fresh, vibrant and colorful. Everyone that works here is also really nice. Highly recommend for everyone, not just vegans!

Excellent food and great customer service.

The one star is for the misleading on your menu. Arabic coffee with cardamom is actually black coffee with cardamom and $4.25 for small cup is a very expensive. I am arabic man who has grown up in arabic County. If I give your coffee to our older, they will feel disappointed and disrespected. I hope you change your menu and I am more than happy to bring you arabic coffee to see the different.

I came here for dinner last night and really enjoyed it. The food, drinks and service were all delicious! I also loved the dessert options - especially the olive oil cake!I highly recommend going.

What an awesome find this place is! If you want to experience a true taste adventure, especially to the Middle East, I highly recommend eating here at Aleph! The falafeh was excellent and moist, the potatoes are to die for! The service, ambience, and location make this place truly “a must “ for the plant-based peeps in your posse! Loved every bite, and we will definitely return very soon! pS. The olive oil cake is just deliciously delightful! Full bonus star! 6/5
