Delicious food in a casual atmosphere - Edit
The food was great, though for some reason the lemon chicken reminded me of Chinese takeout! Really good meal with large portions. Dessert was also excellent (mocha chocolate cake).

Yum - Edit
I ate here after quite a workout, and I was hungry! Everything was vegan, delicious, and they have a bunch of vegan ice "cream" that you can eat in or take home in larger qualities.

Veg only restaurant, but food not great - Edit
I went to the Nile Cafe sometime in Fall 2012. Things may have changed since then as they were reopening after closed for a while when I went.
Read moreThe food wasn't great. Everything is vegan at the restaurant. They have ice cream and possibly other veg desserts (I don't remember exactly). I remember a couple good items, but the rest I threw out because it wasn't edible. There are other great veg restaurants in the area, as the Philadelphia area is one of the best veg places in the country or even the world. Veg food can be just as good as non-veg, but this restaurant doesn't display this.
The staff seemed very nice, however. Also, the Nile Cafe mainly sells water to put into a water cooler.
Pros: Friendly staff, All veg
Cons: Food not great

Great! - Edit
This place is almost all vegan. The only non-vegan item is whey powder available for smoothies. The food is delish and the prices are reasonable. I'm a fan, though the location is not convenient for me.
