Hummus Republic

As part of my Alameda Restaurant Week photography, I stopped by Hummus Republic to sample their menu. The food quality really stands out for the price point. It's fast, clean, and healthy for someone busy - both my nutritionist wife AND my 9yo kid love this place. It's a great spot downtown offering Mediterranean food at inexpensive prices. Perfect for to-go orders when you're on the move.

Absolutely loved the falafel bowl, with a huge portion size. Would highly recommend their grandma’s sauce to top it up, very flavourful, lightly spiced, perfect to balance the hummus and falafel. The falafel burger with sweet potato fries was equally underwhelming. The burger was tasteless and dry with falafel as the patty and just ketchup. Would have been so much nicer with hummus or any other sauces on top. The fries were hard and chewy, definitely seemed refried and not fresh. The strawberry lychee cooler was deliciously soothing, not too sweet, just perfect. The baklava was too soggy and sweet. Not terrible but also not great. Overall, the bowls are a safe bet which will not disappoint

First time trying Hummus Republic. The food was very fresh and tasty. Friendly staff and the multiple lemonade flavors were refreshing.

I enjoy Hummus Republic every time. They always have the freshest ingredients and they also pack a ton towards your order! It’s clean and the atmosphere is chill. First time trying falafel —it was so good!

Came in for a quick healthy meal and it did not disappoint! I ordered a couscous bowl with shwarma chicken and almost all the veggies, and it was a lot of food. I also got the strawberry lychee drink, and it was so good, I wish I could buy a jug! Staff was nice and friendly and the restaurant was really clean, also a really nice bathroom with a baby changing table. Would recommend everyone!

This restaurant is newer and very clean. The food is outstanding and they make huge portions of super deliciousness! The staff is professional & friendly! We came to LA and SF last month for 12 days from Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦 and specifically drove to Alameda to hit up Hummus Republic!! First time we tried was in El Segundo but surprisingly that location closed down. This place rocks and the food is super fresh, must try!

This place is like the Chipotle of Vegan food; It's great! I really like it! However, their prices are bit high for all vegan ingredients when I can get a vegan meal from Chipotle, a few blocks up the street at the shopping center, for $2-3 less. I hope this place can scale and do well. Do try it out!

Solid fast casual option for Alameda. Was really hoping for an experience more like “Souvla” in the city but it did not meet that bar. Had the chicken schwarma and it was only favorite, it had a weird texture and consistency more similar to a tuna fish sandwich. The sauces were good and healthy options. Also had sweet potato fries which were just OK and not hot. Came in just before 7:10pm (closes at 7:30pm) which seems like it closes on the early side. Staff were friendly and helpful but definitely got the vibe they wanted us out and they said we couldn’t stay and eat (we planned to do take out regardless).
