Delicious and a great atmosphere - Edit
We randomly found this place in Kensington and so glad we did. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and the food was delicious! A great place for a vegan meal and a work space away from home.

Authentic and extremely flavourful, the baba shawarma sandwich is an absolute favourite. I just couldn’t stop going back when I visited Toronto! They have baklava eventually and it’s also delicious!

Best halloumi I’ve had - Edit
I have had an unsatisfied craving for good halloumi for years now, every before I became vegan, and this vegan version is hands-down better than any dairy I’ve ever had.

Small spot, great food - Edit
I tried the Mama Shawarma and it was great! Their fries with the harissa tahini side are really good too. Honestly this little whole in the wall type of place is a great find in the area😄

Delish options. Fast service. Eat here - Edit
Group of 4 ate here for dinner. Great vibe. Had 4 different bowls and all were great. The halloumi, kofta, and cauliflower were outstanding. And the mint lemonade was great.

Finally some proper vegan shawarma! - Edit
This place is the real deal! The shawarma in particular is incredible and really hits the spot. The restaurant itself is small with a bit of an awkward layout, but since this is more of a street food place, just grab a wrap and go for a stroll through Kensington while gorging! Overall one of my favourite places in the area to eat.
Read morePros: Delicious food, Uncommon dishes, Excellent location

Good vegan food, fair prices - Edit
I ordered delivery from here a few times. The food arrived hot and fresh both times. For a relatively low price, I was able to order a significant amount of food that lasted multiple meals. Price-wise and quantity-wise, this restaurant is great. The cauliflower pita is delicious, as is the shawarma pita. There are a number of falafel dishes, all of which are very filling dishes but a bit bland. There are many dessert options and they’re all amazing.

Yum! Incredibly good - Edit
I've eaten here three times (or four?), and about to order takeaway for dinner again. So far, I've tried their "Mama" (seitan chickun) and "Baba" (seitan un-beef) wraps and plates, and the stuffed falafel. Their seitan is to die for - perfectly spiced - and their wraps have come the *closest* to a non-vegan shawarma wrap of the places I've tried.
Read moreIf possible I'd give a 4.5 star rating, because we weren't fans of the stuffed falafels. There isn't much stuffing in them, so if you like a giant falafel with a tasty sauce (which I do once in a while) they're good, but not a home run like the rest of their food.
Pros: Their seitan is to die for, The wraps are perfect
Cons: Stuffed falafels could use more stuffing

Mind bending! - Edit
I ate here last summer and remember it being a keeper. Toronto is a falafel city and has been since at least the 90's but Eat Nabati stands out. (I'm not sure why I didn't write a review after the first visit!)
Read moreIt didn't prepare me for THIS meal, however! As soon as I bit into the kofta I said "Holy F@#%" it was THAT good! I got the large bowl with Egyptian eggplant and kofta.
I'm very particular about eggplant and find there is only a small handful of dishes I will eat with it. Since I had a good experience the first time at this restaurant I had a feeling they'd to the eggplant right - and they sure did! No rubbery texture at all! No itchiness which I sometimes get. Just melt in your mouth aubergine!
I don't know if they made a mistake and popped a Tiramisu in the bag by accident (I had ordered and picked up the berry cake) or on purpose but although I'm not much of a Tiramisu fan I really enjoyed it and would eat it again!
To sum up, I bought this meal to share with my partner but then asked if he was ok eating yesterdays leftovers because I couldn't stop eating the Eat Nabati!
Pros: Truely awesome food, Great staff, All the classics done vegan

The best place for Middle Eastern downtown - Edit
If you're looking for something beyond falafel, you've found it! The chicken and beef shawarma are flavourful, the kofta is mind-blowing and the halloumi unbelievably creamy. The stuffed falafel are also delicious! I would genuinely recommend everything on the menu. I'd know - I've been three times this week!
Read morePros: Rare vegan options like halloumi and kofta, 100% vegan, Sweet staff
