Perfect place

The food is great and the prices might be higher than usual but we could eat this fantastic food on a Sunday around 3.30pm ! Tbh I would not be working next to a hoven on a Sunday in a summer time unless it is worth it. The place is cosy, the staff very kind and easy going. The decoration is a plus. i recommand the place.

Pros: food, opening time, cozy

Tasty food but expensive

Food was nice but very expensive. A burger with fries, focaccia and 2 drinks for €40,-?! I get that gv stuff is more expensive but an extra 5.5 for fries and mayo is a little much. We did not get cake because these prices started at 9,5...

Pros: Nice flavours, Fun street

Cons: Expensive

Nice surprise

This plant based restaurant already exists for over 4 years but I missed it for some reason. Found it yesterday on Happy Cow Rotterdam. Today my first visit which was a very nice surprise! Everything is home made (except nacho's) and fully plant based. They use very fresh high quality products which come with a price but it's certainly worth the expense.
Nice seating, indoors or outdoors and excellent menu (no soups, perhaps in winter?).
Preparing for an extra kitchen to provide plant based workshops and to expand their chain into other parts of the city (pls also come to my hometown, the Hague!).

Pros: fully plant based, fresh quality food, Nice seating and decorations, Good menu

Cons: Price but it's certainly worth the expense

The best vegan food I had during my trip!

It’s a vegan heaven…the place is cozy with a super cute interior, friendly owner, and on top of that, a great selection of vegan food! What more can you ask for?
My daughter enjoyed playing the piano there :)

cozy & delicious

Cozy restaurant with a cool owner. Serves delicious plant based & gluten free food, with mainly turkish / oriental inspired dishes. We had the Hell Burger (very good gf bun!) and the warm bowl with home made köfte. Both very delicious. Definitely a recommendation when being in Rotterdam.

Amazing food, EVERYTHING is vegan, so that is a big plus. They have a broad menu, a bit on the pricy side, but good quality 👌🏽

Pros: Everything is vegan, Friendly staff, Delicious

Cons: A bit on the pricy side

Heerlijk gegeten. Super dat alles vegan was, dus enorm veel keuzes! Vooral de "Köfte open wrap" was enorm lekker, en het restaurant is erg leuk ingericht met aardige medewerkers.

Nice, but unexpectedly pricey

Good food, friendly staff and good atmosphere, but if we knew the prices beforehand we wouldn’t have went. The food is fine, but not good enough to justify the high price point: €19 for a burger and fries. Of all the other meals, €24 was the cheapest.

To motivate us to write a review, we got a burned brownie-like dessert to-go when we left 🤷🏻‍♂️ Nice gesture, but felt weird to realize later that they might’ve just wanted to get rid of a failed batch.

There was no way to check the menus beforehand, so maybe good marketing on their end.

Pros: Commendable range of meat substitutes, Good atmosphere, friendly staff

Cons: Food quality not on par with prices, No online menu, unexpected high prices

Amazing food!

Highly recommend, this is by far the best vegan restaurant I have ever eaten in!
We took a taxi to this restaurant because it was rated number one in the world in HappyCow. My significant other ordered the pita with mushrooms and Dönmez, I ordered the lasagna with meatz. The food tasted absolutely amazing. The owner is extremely personable, friendly and nice. We will definitely be returning next time we are in Rotterdam.

Sterk aanbevelen, dit is veruit het beste veganistische restaurant waar ik ooit heb gegeten!
We namen een taxi naar dit restaurant omdat het in HappyCow de nummer één ter wereld was. Mijn significante andere bestelde de pitabroodje met champignons en D nmez, ik bestelde de lasagne met meatz. Het eten smaakte absoluut geweldig. De eigenaar is uiterst knap, vriendelijk en aardig. We zullen zeker terugkomen de volgende keer dat we in Rotterdam zijn.

Pros: Amazing food that is healthy, Nothing is deep fried, Everything is made fresh
