Vegan options clear and easy to identify - Edit

After trying tahina, I don't think that I will be returning to my go-to Falafel spot anymore.

Tahina offers a variety of vegan options that are clearly labelled on the menu such as; eggplant dip, a trio of hummus (cilantro, regular, and red pepper), fries, chickpea salad, and more. You can either go for a plate, salad, or gyro/wrap but I decided to go with the plant based lamb plate given that's something I do not frequently see at other Mediterranean spots.

The "lamb" skewers were delicious as was the chickpea salad and cilantro hummus that I ordered as sides. Not pictured but I had a side of fries and they were seasoned with mediterranean seasonings & paired well with a cilantro dipping sauce.

The plus of this is that it's actually affordable to eat here and the portions are big!

Pros: Clear vegan options, other areas in the food hall have vegan items

Cons: Not fully vegan, sort of close to butcher stands
