excellent Middle Eastern, includes vegan dishes

4 Posted on 09 / 24 / 2011

Contrary to its name, its dining room is much larger than a tiny spot and its food deserves dining time longer than a quick stop. Traditional American-Middle Eastern food, with all the expected vegan dishes such as hummus, baba ganouch, stuffed grape leaves, and falafel tucked inside a pita, or not. The baba ganouch and stuffed grape leaves (albeit with white rice) are especially good, indeed as good as such simple fare can be. Another excellent dish that is surprising vegan is the collards greens, though sometimes way too heavy on the garlic. Another very worthy very vegan dish includes the mousakaa (which you might know by the French name ratatouille). While not stated on the menu, whole wheat pita is available upon request, so do request it. And note that the prices are moderate and therefore quite uncharacteristic of Mystic. Also uncharacteristic of Mystic, it offers ample parking. The always adorable waitresses boast some vegetarians among them, and the owner's brother Tony, there only on weekends because on weekdays he lives in Manhattan, speaks "fluent vegan," so ask of Tony any questions you may have regarding ingredients.

Pros: the food!, moderate prices, its location
