Sassool always delivers! They offer the best Mediterranean cuisine in the area, with plenty of gluten-free and vegan-friendly choices. I highly recommend trying the Jalapeño hummus. View all feedback.
What Jo Maggio dislikes about Sassool:
First time here been plenty of times at sister store of Neomonde. Menu and all the same. But some dishes not sold at Neomonde any more. Did take out you can eat in also if you like. The chickpea salad was okay some hard chickpeas in it as well . Also had chicken salad that was okay. We also bought the veggie lasagna couldn?t complain. Parking was a little troublesome. Will say the food was okay but just missing somet... View all feedback.

We were in Raleigh last week visiting My Baby Sister and her Hubby so we had to eat out to keep her out of the kitchen. We convinced them to eat Middle Eastern and they recommended this great Lebanese restaurant. The food was so good I forgot to takepictures. I did take a picture of their stuffed dates, really out of this world, though. Their spanakopita was the best I haveever eaten. It?s worth a drive there for that alone. The rest of my choices were excellent. I will eat there again on my nextvisit to Raleigh.
If you enjoy Mediterranean food, you must try Sassool! We got a kabob platter and a four side platter. Everything was delicious and filling! They also have a wonderful selection of desserts. You can also purchase grocery items here. They have a niceelections of decently priced items.
I have been working in the market for two months- luckily walked into the Cary location my second week- and have now had lunch here 10+times. Always amazing, the Mediterranean chicken salad and hummus with olives and oil are unbelievable- I have toldeveryone on my teams to try it and everyone has had amazing things to say!
The food here is so fresh and absolutely delicious!! They have a market so you can buy some of your favorite things for home. If I?m having people over (or don?t feel like cooking) I just get a bunch of containers to go. Fresh out of the oven pita bread,and gluten free and vegan dessert options! It?s literally the best, I can take anyone here and we all can get what we want toeat! The staff is really friendly and these wafers are the so good! One of my favorite spots in Raleigh!

I’ve tried almost everything on the menu at Sassool, and every dish is delicious. The staff is consistently friendly, even during busy times. I highly recommend the kabob, chicken salad, chicken Shawarma sandwich, and autumn root salad. You truly can’t go wrong with anything here, especially their freshly made pita!
I don’t think there’s a single item on the menu here that isn’t worth trying. Today, I enjoyed a spinach fatayer along with a cabbage salad and a roasted root vegetable salad — all were tasty and wholesome! We truly love this place!

When I first walked in, I felt a little overwhelmed by the extensive menu and display case. However, once I gathered my thoughts, I absolutely loved the experience!
The mint fig pizette is amazing! However, the zatar pizzette was over-seasoned—so much that we ended up scraping some off and still had to load it with hummus to make it taste better.

Great veggie dishes made with high-quality ingredients. Everything tastes extremely fresh whereas I sometimes get older-tasting/stale food at Neomonde. Plenty of indoor and outdoor space; great for groups as anyone can find something they'd enjoy here.
This is my favorite restaurant! The food here is so fresh and healthy. I love that I can indulge in a wide range of vegetable dishes with delicious flavors like mint, cilantro, jalapeno, garlic, and lemon. They offer pick 3 and pick 4 plates, as well as freshly made hot dishes and daily specials in the hot case. And don't worry, they also serve beer and amazing desserts like baklava, key lime squares, chocolate mousse, and more. It's a must-visit spot for anyone looking for a tasty and healthy meal.
I would give this place more stars if I could. I was really in the mood for a delicious kabob and this place definitely delivered. Everything was spot on. I'm looking forward to ordering from here again. For more suggestions, check out @raleighunlocked on Instagram.

Really enjoyed our visit to Sassool. The pitas are brick oven baked right there and come out poofed up and hot. The hummus is very traditional (it’s not like Sabra! and is a great experience. We went on a Tuesday and didn’t know kids eat free but got a free small pizza for the daughter, although it’s more like cheese bread and she wasn’t a huge fan- but was still good quality and she ate ours. I had beef kabobs, grape leaves and the hummus platter and it was good. Maybe would prefer a bit more flavor on the kabobs but they dipped well in the hummus. Overall a great place, quick, tasty and fresh.

The chickpea salad was okay some hard chickpeas in it as well . Also had chicken salad that was okay. We also bought the veggie lasagna couldn?t complain. Parking was a little troublesome. Will say the food was okay but just missing something or it was a new cook back in the kitchen. This problem is not here but all around town. Food taste being a little off and inconsistent. But in the end would be back to this location.
Last week, we visited my baby sister and her husband in Raleigh, and we made sure to keep her out of the kitchen. We persuaded them to try a fantastic Lebanese restaurant, Near East, and the food was so good that I forgot to take pictures! However, I did manage to snap a photo of their stuffed dates, which were truly out of this world. My sister's spanakopita was the best I've ever tasted—worth the drive on its own. Everything else I ordered was also excellent. I can't wait to eat there again on my next visit to Raleigh!
Dining here is a truly fresh and absolutely delicious experience! They even have a market where you can buy some of your favorite items to take home. If I'm hosting guests (or just don’t feel like cooking), I simply grab a few takeout containers. The pita bread is always fresh from the oven, and they offer gluten-free and vegan dessert options! It’s genuinely the best— I can bring anyone along, and everyone can find something they love to eat! The staff is incredibly friendly, and the wafers are simply amazing! This is definitely one of my favorite spots in Raleigh!
I've been working in the area for two months, and thankfully, I visited the Cary location during my second week. I've eaten here ten times, and it's always amazing! The Mediterranean chicken salad and the hummus with olives and oil are incredible. I've recommended it to everyone on my team, and they've all shared fantastic feedback!
