The restaurant is nice. The food is good quality. They have all the usual Mediterranean options. They don't have anything fancy. Just the usual falafel and gyro. I felt the menu choices were a little limited. They have only falafel as a veg protein. The alternative is avocado. The gyro and falafel tasted well. The quantity for the platter was underwhelming, but the bowl was pretty filling. The baklava is good too. Despite limited menu options, the items that they do have available are good. They did seem fresh enough. The seating is nice too. Good place for a quick lunch in the middle of a workday.
As of September 2024, Iโve highlighted the gluten free AND vegan items in green and the unexpectedly non-vegan items in red. The online menu is not labeled and it is hard to tell the difference between the vegetarian and vegan items on the in-person menu in the pictures (and it is not accurately labeled). A bit disappointed I canโt have the rice or most of the menu to make a bowl.
I just did a quick stop for some grape leaves and they were lovely (even though I canโt have the sauce)!
Jasmin and Olivz became a staple during my time at NC State, and it's not hard to see why. The chicken shawarma is consistently fresh and tender, paired with sauces that are nothing short of delicious. The staff, always friendly, adds that extra touch to the experience. Today's visit included a build-your-own bowl with chicken shawarma and sesame sauce dressing .. it was simple yet great flavors. We also got a vegetarian bowl with rice, chickpeas, and falafels, creating a satisfying mix. The spinach zaki, a regular favorite, never disappoints, and the paninis are consistently excellent. It's my go-to spot for light Mediterranean meals, with a bonus of being super friendly to vegetarians and vegans. Dine in seating may get crowded during lunch hours but still a great spot that has my tastebuds hooked!
There are few things I love more than a Jasmine's chicken zaki! Everything at this restaurant is delicious, quick, and filling. The owner is super nice, and they have multiple locations in the Raleigh area. In addition to the zakis, I recommend the hummus and the fries with a side of Jasmine's sauce. Don't forget to grab a piece of chocolate baklava for dessert.
The servers were sweet and polite, specially almost post pandemic world, when many places are still trying to get their groove back. Menu is amazing with reasonable prices and decor was in simpleton style. Vegan and vegetarian options are excellent and food fresh. It was first visit and will go there again to assess the consistency. Baklava was out of this world
