It’s a vibe

This place is a vibe, let’s put it that way. The owner Sara seems generous, welcome and socially active in the field of animal activism. I personally don’t like this kind of cult-ish Peta (ugh!) vibe that many vegan places have, but what stroke me the most are the prices. We had the shawarma (delicious marinade and texture) but the price according to local standards are really really insane (10 JD, so around 20$ for a wrap!!!!!) Personally, I would not recommend for this price, I felt robbed.

Pros: Tasty, healthy, large portion , Generous and nice owner

Great food!

Sara, the owner and chef, has a great thing going on here. The food is 100% vegan and made from scratch. She has a passion for good food and also for animal welfare. We need more people like Sara! I rarely eat dessert but I couldn’t miss her amazing chocolate cake.

Not simply the best vegan place in Amman

This restaurant is not only the best vegan restaurant you can find in Amman. But also a good kitchens with very delicious dishes that you can eat even if you are not vegan.
Sara and her brother are very good people, they treated us like we were old good friend and all the foods we ate were incredibly delicious.
Sara also is a good guide for Jordan travellers, she can give you some good suggestions like where to going, where to sleep and so on.
She also takes care about the cats you can find on the streets of Amman.
Absolutely recommended

Pros: Food, Atmosphere , Cats

Cons: No , No, No

Super food and amazing ambience

The food was all very good. Foods from all different cultures where the chef comes from. We had amazing Romanian crepes with tomato sauce, tofu zinger and lasagna. The lasagna had the perfect Bolognese taste. The restaurant has a very good vibe and part of the income goes to savings and helping cats 😺. Also they played good music.
Sara, the chef, is very sweet.

Pros: Romanian crepes , Good price , Good music

Cons: Small space, cozy but not a lot of seating.

Most amazing dinner in Amman!

AMAZING food and people! Highly recommend the zinger, shawarma, and veggie burger. All were prepared quickly and gave pretty big serving sizes. The owner is so warm and welcoming, and works on such amazing initiatives for animal rights in Jordan! 10/10 recommend even if you aren’t vegan!!

Pros: Service , Conversation , Food

Delicious vegan food in Amman

This was my first time at Bayt Sara, and on her menu was a vegan shawarma, which I decided to try, and it was delicious! It was a huge portion of food as well. She also had a chocolate cake that was made without sugar, and it was a nice treat. I did not feel guilty after eating this when compared to a cake filled with sugar, and it was just as good!

Pros: Food, Service , Ambiance

Trailblazing, cozy vegan restaurant

Nothing better than a restaurant that gives back to the community. Sara’s activism is inspiring and as a business owner is incredibly welcoming - she makes delicious, homemade vegan cuisine with love. Not to be missed if you are passing thru Amman!

Pros: Atmosphere, Flavor of food, Helpfulness of owner

Unique place and people! Tasty food!

There is no other place in Jordan I would recommend as much as Bayt Sara's place for delicious vegan food. The place is quiet and comfy, the food wonderful, the quality is great! The portions of the food are big and you would never leave this place unsatisfied. During our 10-day stay in Jordan, my friends and I got to visit this place three times!! And we loved it every single time!
The owner (Sara) and her brother are lovely and friendly people, very kind and social, combined with being excellent cooks both for main courses but also for desserts! Most importantly, they love animals and, besides being vegan and promoting veganism through their great cuisine, they also take care of the stray cats and dogs of Amman. A paradigm of people!
PS: The last time we visited their place I had a small stomachache from a food I had eaten the previous day elsewhere. Sara, as an exceptional and lovely person literally called her mother for a special herbal tea recipe to make me feel better, while she also prepared me an off-menu warm soup that made me feel great again.
I cannot say much more than, if you go to Jordan, you HAVE to visit this place, enjoy their food, and support their action to protecting the otherwise helpless animals.
A must-visit!!

Pros: friendly and animal-caring staff, delicious food, comfy place

Amazing experience here!

We visited Bayt Sara to see the vegan landscape in Amman and were pleasantly surprised with what we experienced! The food was delicious and came in huge portions. The atmosphere was great. There were a few adorable kittens running around the whole time. Overall, fantastic vibes and experience. We are hoping to come back soon!

Would recommend the tofu scramble

There are lots of options and I had the first day the tofu wrap and the second day the tofu scramble. I really liked the tofu scramble, the wrap was too big for one person. I could barely move after eating this.

Pros: The choice of food, Fully vegan

Cons: The portion was too big, Make the portion smaller and cheaper, I didn't like the desserts, but that is just me

Incredible food for an incredible cause

Not only was the food homemade with love, delicious and 100% vegan, the purpose behind her restaurant is amazing. Sara uses half of the profits to help raise funds for medical treatment for street cats, dogs and other animals around the area (including Petra and Wadi Mousa). Sara is very welcoming, passionate and caring. The portions are very large and in my opinion worth the money (particularly given where the money is going). I will definitely be back again and would recommend to anyone regardless of whether they are vegan.

Pros: All vegan food

So helpful and fab food!

Food was fab, Sara advised the portions are big enough for 2, so my son and I shared our meal.
There was even enough left over for breakfast, which Sara packaged up for us perfectly.
We went to Sara's on our first night in Jordon, and what a find that was!
Sara heard us talking about our trip and gave us great tips/ advice on what to do.
We took her advice on our 2 day stay at Wadi Rum...and so glad we did, we had an amazing time, thanks to Sara's contacts, great value for money.
So not only superb tasty food and lots of it, but really good practical information...thank you Sara xx.

Pros: Fantastic food, Generous portions , Lovely seeing the cats / kittens

Cons: Nothing , Nothing, Nothing

Great food, people and cause

Amazing experience - casual setting, Sara introduces herself and explains the menu/options to you in great detail. Food was UNREAL, took my mum who isn’t vegan and she couldn’t believe it. Portions are enough for 2 people so great value for money. Sara also helped us a lot with the rest of our Jordan itinerary

Pros: Huge portions / good value for money , Really friendly and warm owner , Your money is going to a good cause

Excellent Food & Excellent Cause

From the first bite, i fell in love with the food and the owner is passionate about animal rights and veganism. The restaurant is cozy with a hip vibe. It's a bit out of the way, but it's worth every step to get there. The portions were large and i had to take half with me for lunch tomorrow.

This restaurant was so delicious. The owner is a delight and has so many passionate causes that she funds, especially helping the stray cats of Amman and the animals of Petra. The food menu offered a variety of cuisines and everything we had was amazing. Was a wonderful gem.

Vegan Jordan food and cats!

Nice place! Was there by myself and Sami was very nice. Even showed me some kittens. Food was good, way too much for one person.

The menu was not printed, so no prices to see until you pay. Price was however as I expected. Paid 13JD for meal and cold brew.

A vegan heaven in Amman

When we took our lunch seats at Bayt Sara, Sara began to address us for over 20 minuits or so with all the causes she was involved in, from stray cats to all other animal issues, organizing annual Vegan festival, helping needy women and refugees, dream of opening a shelter for animals in Petra to doing a Cooking show for a LA TV channel. Then, she ran down the day's menu - phew ! It was in fact pretty hard to comprehend all that was said because of lengthy and detailed account - truly one-of-a-kind and a lone warrior !

My pick was a delicious Hungarian specialty with home-baked bread. When we ordered Chocolate cake for dessert, the portion was so huge we had hard time finishing it.

It was probably the longest time I ever spent at a restaurant, well it looked more like a home/museum with lots on display, as Sara shared lots of her life stories. In fact, she wants someone to listen to it and get it published as a book, more as an inspiration to others.

Amazing place

Sara, the owner is a vegan activist and an overall helpful and really attentive person. She was just starting to eat when we arrived but focused fully on us when we arrived. We ordered 2 sandwiches which tasted amazing and were large portions we could not finish. Sara provided lots of extra great info as well, she explained where everything is from money exchange to which fee free ATM to use, she also has great contacts in Wadi Rum and so on… lots of useful info.
Last but not least, she runs a cats sanctuary and if I remember correctly a large portion of the money you spend there go straight to helping cats and other animals. There a few cats in the shop as well, we fell in love with one and we wish we could have adopted her. 😊

Pros: Charitable cause , Great food , Amazing owner!
