Very fresh and delicious, I got a falafel wrap. The tahini sauce it comes with is really good. The owner is so nice, and there was a friendly cat that sat at the table with us who was so cute, he wasn't begging for food since it's all vegetarian, I tried to offer some falafel to him but he didn't want it. He just wanted to chill with us. Me and my girl friend really liked everything!

We come here at least once a week for my vegetarian girlfriend. The food is so fresh and fresh and it’s made with love by a lovely lady ❤️

We went there because it was rated so high on Happy Cow (an app for vegans). We walked there for 30 mins from another part of the city centre because we felt like falafel and wanted to support a vegan business. The interior is really not good - not only visually (dark and stuffy) but also gave us some doubts about the sanitary conditions of this place. It also looked like the lady owner actually is living there... The food is very average, especially for the price the owner charges for it. The falafel was ok, a bit too sour to our taste. The babaganush wasn't good. The hummus was not as smooth as it's supposed to be and not impressive at all. Just in front of us the lady owner brought the flat bread from outside (she probably bought it at some place across) and served it to me as gluten-free flat bread by just taking it from the pack. First, I was surprised that the menu offered such a good variety of herbal tea. However instead of linden tea we ordered, she brought us sage tea. I have nothing against sage, but please serve us with what we ordered. I was there with my mom, my mom isn't vegan, and I was kind of embarrassed and felt bad because of my choice. Honestly, this place feels like a scam for vegan tourists who probably walk a long distance like we did and out of politeness decide to stay there for food 😳

Simple and nice place. The food was good I had falafel and mushroom sauce meal. The price is quiet expensive compared to other vegan restaurants were they serve low price meal. I gave it 3 stars but it's worth trying.
