Yum. In downtown thrift shopping (Rescue Misson) and walked to Mooneys up eclectic Trade Street. Got the special-- an unpronounceable pita with lentils, rice, beets and sweet pickles-- light and flavorful. Added a side of smooth and lemony hummus with warm pita and crisp carrot chips. Great food experience for
Mooney's is that quaint downtown restaurant where you feel like you could become friend's with the owners and staff easily. They ooze hospitality. The food is excellent clean cuisine. The flavors are unique with strong spices. Order a platter to get the best of everything. You will also enjoy the warm atmosphere and the easy wine selection.
First time eating here for dinner on a Friday night....we ordered the Tawook platter and Kafta platter. Both the grilled chicken and beef/lamb patties were very good along with the basmati rice that it was served with. The platters came with a salad (fettoosh), hummus and pita bread....a good amount of each. We ordered the tabouli for an appetizer. It was good, but next time we will try something else since the fettoosh that came with our platters was a good amount of greens. It is not a large amount of meat, but we left satisfied, especially for the price. If you are very hungry, I would definitely suggest a heavier appetizer than the tabouli....we plan on ordering something like the lentil soup or moussaka for an appetizer next time. Very good flavors....small café atmosphere.
