The Thirsty Camel Cafe serves delicious, fresh and healthy food. It's a favourite Nanaimo restaurant, voted among the top three places to eat lunch in Nanaimo in 2009. The main menu is middle Eastern. There are plenty of Vegetarian and Vegan option, as well as dishes containing free-range, veggie-fed, non-medicated chicken from Nanaimo's best butcher. Piper's Meats. Our falafel pitas have gained a reputation far beyond Nanaimo. According to Victoria's Eat Magazine, "There is ho hum falafel and then there is Ilan Goldenblatt's falafel at the Thirsty Camel. [ Goldnblatt] is fresh obsessed". [ Su Grimmer, Eat Magazine, July/August edition, 2008.]
I love middle Eastern food but it's hard to find a restaurant that does it good. And my partner's a vegan and there's so much here to eat.
The persian chicken plate is made from free-range chicken and smothered in a great selection of spices - i think they said 18 different ones!
This is my favorite place for baklava too. The syrup they us is perfect.Read more

I’d say 3.5 really at the most, waitress was fantastic. Chefs don’t know their cook times. Steak I asked for medium, it came medium rare. Wife’s rack of
Lamb came medium rare when she asked for medium well. Food was tasty but for the price not really worth it. Place could use a renovation. Probably top notch back in the day. Read more
