Amazing Salad Selection - Edit
On the menu everything is clearly marked for vegan and vegetarian options. Too many choices, it’s hard to pick. For someone who lives elsewhere, and has access to falafel regularly, I knew I wanted salads and sides I normally cannot get. I went with a 4 platter so I could try their classic hummus, lentil rice, black bean salad, and kale salad. Also ordered the zatar flat bread becuase it’s not always vegan. All were amazing and enough leftovers for a second meal tomorrow.

I had a delicious flatbread for lunch here with some kale salad. It was so good - I got four vegan sides to take home to my husband as well as a vegan peanut butter brownie. Amazing food.

Good food! - Edit
Great place that serves food for all different types of diet. I had the falafel platter. There was a miscommunication and I got the tzatziki which wasn’t vegan, so the person who took my order gave me a vegan cake to make up for it 🥹

very good - Edit
Very clean and inviting atmosphere. I felt Covid safe as people were spaced apart and there is an option for outside dining. Easy to order, fresh food display case to see what you would like to order. Excellent menu selection. Meal was delicious! Fresh baked desserts hard to resist! Reasonable prices, fast service. I bought a pumpernickel bread from their grocery to take home because it looked so good. I was disappointed as it lacked the texture and flavor I expected. It was like a lightweight white bread, but darker. I ended up buying an excellent pumpernickel from Trader Joes and freezing that one for croutons.
Read morePros: fresh, clean, Covid safe

Yum! - Edit
Haven’t been to Neomande in a while, but the experience was just the same. Ordered a platter and the person taking my order was very helpful to point out the vegan options. My husband order the kabobs (he is obviously NOT vegan). This was the first time in while that both my husband and I were satisfied with a meal.

Lively atmosphere with cafeteria-style service. The majadarah is deeply satisfying and delicious comfort food and shouldn't be missed. Hummus has a slight kick. Great pita.

Awesome selection - Edit
A great place to get vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and yes also meat. It's always hard to find places were everyone has a different dietary restrictions. Well Neomonde solves that issue and above that excellent food as well. I had the Neomonde platter (Baba ghanoush, Hummus, Tabbouleh, olives and Dolmas) a side falafel and pita to top it of vegan baklava. So good.

Awesome and Eclectic! - Edit
There's so much to take in here: the falafels, the sides, the LASAGNA. If you eat here, definitely give their lasagna a try! It was phenomenal!! If you are into falafels, the restaurant has an excellent vegetarian falafel. If you love chickpeas you can not miss their chickpea fries! They're nothing short of breathtaking!
Read morePros: Unique, Ethnic, Lasanga
Cons: A little overboard on the tahini

Awesome vegan options - Edit
I have been eating at Neomonde even before I became a plant-based eater! They have amazing options and they are reasonably priced. It's worth the wait if you have to wait. At the counter, they have all or most of the ingredients listed vegan - if you ask to make sure, they'll tell you. Just thinking about the food makes me want it! The outside seating is really cute.
Read moreAlso, their little grocery store has vegan options for people and the items are well priced. Every time I go there, I stock up.
Edit: It's 2017 and now that I moved to Raleigh, I visit Neomonde regularly (and their sister restaurant, equally friendly, Sassool). They do have VEGAN BAKLAVA now and sometimes speciality vegan desserts. =)
The falafel sandwich is my favorite along with their various flavored hummus. The participated in the Oak City Vegan Chef Challenge in 2016 and came up with a unique and delicious entree. I will continue to support them.

So good! - Edit
I seriously love this place! My husband and I always get the same thing: falafel sandwich on whole wheat pita with a side of kale salad and a side of lentil salad. This meal never gets old. I could literally eat this meal every other day and not get sick of it. They have the best falafel sandwiches packed full of fresh falafels, generous amounts of tahini with unique pickles, lettuce, parsley, and turnips (oh, and tomatoes which I omit). Don't be fooled by those turnips - they pickle them or something which makes them a very nice addition to the sandwich. The staff is friendly and they do their best to get everyone's food out to them as quickly as possible.
Read morePros: Best falafel sandwich - ever, Friendly staff
Cons: During their busy time parking can be difficult , They serve animal flesh

Great Baba Ganouj - Edit
I love their baba ganouj, stuffed grape leaves, and jalapeno-cilantro hummus. I really appreciate that they have whole-wheat pita bread, but be forewarned that if you buy a package of it to take home, it tends to mold over at room temperature within 2-3 days because it is preservative-free. So eat it up within that time.
