| - I have been looking forward to eating here for quite some time. When I arrived around the noon hour the place was virtually empty. I saw on the chalkboard a menu sign where you can order or asked to be seated. I choose the latter.
A nice, friendly, and helpful waitress gave me a menu and helped me interpret what I wanted to eat. Breakfast ended at 11 so that will be on a future visit. The menu has items on it that can be served all day such as "mezze" which is a choice of dip(s) with pita or thick cut toast served with various toppings.
Since this place is entirely vegan I opted for the falafel sandwich and a small plate of mujadara. Sandwiches can be paired as a lunch combo with your choice of soup, salad, or fries for $12.00.
When I was asked for a beverage I was disappointed to learn that they don't offer ice tea but they can take any tea your order and serve it with a cup of ice to cool it. I opted for the half pot of gunpowder green tea. It is served in a pot with a small glass and was ok just as it was.
The mujadara is made with basmati rice, green lentils, onions, and Tahini yogurt sauce. I received that small plate first and it was out of this world delicious! My falafel came with a homemade wrap. It consisted of Mediterranean slaw, chick peas, pickled turnips, preserved lemons, and Tahini sauce. This wrap was so big I had to cut it just to eat it. Loved it but it was a little messy. To me as long as it tastes good I don't care about it being messy.
I got to chat a little with the folks at the next table. One of them ordered the Shiitake mushroom flatbread AKA Manakish. it looked like a 6 cut pizza. He offered me a small slice to try and that too was out of this world good!
I was stuffed with my meal when my waitress went over the dessert menu. They serve various cookies and brownies along with homemade truffles made with various fillings. I decided to hold off for now until a future visit.
Prices here are very reasonable. You definitely can get a nourishing and healthy lunch here. My waitress told me as I was leaving that they do offer brunch on Sat and Suns only since they are open until 3. I will keep that in mind for a future visit.
B52 is a small restaurant located in Upper Lawrenceville. It sits next door to a bank so it isn't hard to miss while driving up that way. I was extremely pleased with my visit and have it on my bucket list to return to try their other offerings. Upon request I was given a take out menu to help me plan a future visit.
