Mona's Cafe & Deli On Frenchman

Great Middle Eastern food. We Unfortunately, had some Vegans in our party but this place was perfect. They were able to order from so many delicious choices as did we happy omnivores. I highly recommend this place as finding GOOD vegan/vegetarian options is hard to find in this delectable culinary "super dome". Only reason 4 stars instead of a perfect 5 is parking, but that just comes with the area.

We were in town for a business meeting and was ISO Mediterranean cuisine and came across this little place. It was very quaint. The food was good. They are also connected to a little market. The only problem was it was a little hard to get to, but that's just how NOLA is set up. Would recommend giving it a try.

You know a Middle Eastern restaurant is legit when they offer labna, a tangy yogurt dip, as a side. (Also called “lebna.”) I rarely see this item on the menu and immediately ordered it. I was not disappointed—the second the dip and warm pita connected, I knew I was in for a treat. I’m hoping to return to try other dishes soon. (February 2019)

This is a small nice and clean restaurant within a small grocery store in the heart of French quarters. I ordered shrimp plate(grilled shrimps with sauteed vegetables served with salad, hummus and pita bread). Large fresh shrimps were grilled to perfection. Their hummus was the best I've tested ever. I called in for to go order but later changed my mind and ate there. Also ordered Turkish coffee which was authentic and delicious. I am not sure if they sever halal meat but one employee verbally confirmed the meat to be halal. Would love to see if they have a certificate from their halal meat supplier. Parking could be an issue if you visit in peak hours. But do give them a visit if you are in town. I will definitely be coming back.
