Goldie is a Philadelphia based chain restaurant serving vegan Israeli food.

[1] The restaurant serves food that is kosher and vegan, including falafel dishes and tehini shakes.

[4][5] More than 400 people attended protests outside of Goldie's restaurants[6] after the restaurant fired three staff members for expressing pro-Palestinian sentiment following the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel,[7] either by wearing Palestinian flag pins or by expressing support for Palestine on social media.

[7][4] The firing was accompanied by a post on social media by the restaurant's owner, Michael Solomonov, announcing that 100% of his restaurants' profits on October 12, 2023 would go to supplying aid and medical assistance to the Israeli Defense Forces.

[8][9] Governor Josh Shapiro condemned the protest, as did President Biden and other political officials, claiming the chant was antisemitic for having targeted a restaurant owned by an Israeli-Jewish owner.
