POTs

  • March 8, 2018
  • Dinner, Egyptian, Fast-Casual, Gluten-Free, Las Vegas, Lunch, Mediterranean, Vegan Friendly Dining

We’re not going to lie; we’ve got a list of about 30 restaurants in the queue to write about before, in theory, we get to POTs. But, there’s absolutely no way we want to keep quiet about this vegan Egyptian restaurant in Las Vegas‘ Spring Valley neighborhood.

Why?

Because, folks, it’s that good.

In May 2022, the Las Vegas vegan restaurant closed its doors and moved to Lucky 3 in the Arts District. Lucky 3 is home to “cloud” kitchens, which essentially allow businesses to prepare food for delivery and pick-up. There are two tables inside Lucky 3.

Las Vegas Vegan Restaurant: POTs

EGyptian vegan food has arrived to Las Vegas. Adding to new vegan options in Las Vegas is Pots, featuring vegan Egyptian street food and more. Additional vegan dining in Las Vegas info here: www.vegansbaby.com/vegansbaby2018

There are a lot of places in town to go to for vegan Mediterranean food, but roughly zero that offer vegan Egyptian food. Until POTs. 

Iman Haggag, the owner and chef behind POTs is a force.

She’s bubbly, she’s friendly, she cares immensely about the quality of her food (during our visit, she asked us often for feedback and also told us to skip taking the fries home because they wouldn’t hold well), she’s excited to share her traditional Egyptian flavors with the world.

But, more than anything else, she’s talented. The flavors here are insane. Savory, spicy, what Las Vegas has been missing and we didn’t even know it.

What to order at POTs

Honestly, it’s hard to pick a favorite thing … and believe me, we tried.

We checked this place with two friends in tow, ordering a small feast, and every dish we ate was packed with passion, texture and, most importantly, taste.

POTs is a vegan Egyptian restaurant in Las Vegas and a black-owned vegan restaurant. For more vegan food in Las Vegas visit www.vegansbaby.com

Small plates/shares range from charred baba ghanoush and hummus to pickled eggplants, sweet potato fries and Egyptian fries dusted with a gorgeous blend of spices, doqqa.

From there, order up a lentil soup with homemade pita or a salad — the Salata Baladi, a traditional Egyptian salad with cucumber, tomatoes, cilantro and carrots.

The Egyptian street food options are the soul of the POTs, though.

With four dishes to choose from, it’s hard to choose.

If you’re a fan of falafel, then the pick for you is the Taamia, Egyptian falafel served in a pita bread with split fava beans and an herb mix toped with salata baladi.

There’s also Ful Mudammas, slow-cooked falafel beans in stuffed into fresh pita.

POTs also serves Cauliflower Shawarma. Think crispy cauliflower with spices served in pita with salata baladi and arugula and oh-so-good. The texture of the cauliflower is perfect.

But, the crowning glory of POTs is the Koshari.

This loaded bowl is packed with brown rice, lentils, elbow pasta, chickpeas and covered in a (spicy if you want it) tomato sauce and topped with fried onions. We’re pretty sure it’s our new favorite dish in town. Here’s Haggag’s easy vegan recipe for koshari if you want to make it at home.

Now, let’s talk dessert.

We dig the Konafa Cups which feature two layers of shredded Konafa dough between creamy coconut pudding and the Dried Apricot Mahlabeya. This light and sweet dessert is made with dried apricot pudding, shredded coconut and raisins. And, if you’ve got room, try the brownie halawa, too. It comes warm and topped with ice cream. Heaven.

Go. Go now. We’ll probably be there, too.

333 W. St. Louis Ave.; Monday – Saturday: 11 a.m. – 8 p.m.

Pin it!
