The best falafel!!

They have the best falafels here ❤️ staff is friendly and food is amazing. We came here twice hehe! Loads of vegan options and they are clearly marked dairy-free on the menu. Order by qr-code from the table is easy 😊 they also have fresh juices.

Fell in love

I‘ve stayed in George Town for 4 days and ate at this place every single day because I couldn’t resist. Would’ve loved to try every single vegan item from the menu.
Absolutely delicious food and very fair prices!
Just be careful, not everything is vegan!

Really enjoyable

All vegan items are clearly labeled, but basically by telling you which dishes have dairy. Lots to choose from here and it's pretty good value. You can see any falafel dishes being prepared and then any other dishes come from the back kitchen. I went with the vegan pizza which was delicious, I couldn't finish it all so got the rest to take away. Waiter was nice and friendly and checked on me just enough, but not so much that it was annoying. The location is great and really handy when you don't want to have to go too far in the heat!

A much needed burger

Stumbled upon this place after a stressful travel day and the burger saved it. Really tasty, loads of amazing food including vegan desserts. Everything is clearly labelled when it included dairy.

Has way more then falafel!😍

Amazing spot with a lot of vegan options that are soy based. Such as the amazing chicken wrap (for only 3€!). Juices are amazing as well.

Street food mentality

Almost 100% vegan (only some sweets are vegetarian, but it's clearly specified on the menu).
There are tables inside, but you can grab what you want and take it away, eating it while walking in the streets.
Wraps are maybe a bit too spicy, but surely good. Super hummus!

So nice we came here twice

Unfortunately didn’t get a chance to try the biscoff pancakes on the first visit, but we had to come back again. They’re open until late so it’s a great place to grab an evening snack. The falafel is great.

MUST try in Penang

We ate here twice during our time in Penang and each time ordered multiple dishes each because it was so good! The wraps are so tasty with the best spicy red pepper sauce ever. Staff are super friendly and the vibes are great. This was exactly what we needed after a few weeks of local food!

Pros: Delicious sauces, Friendly staff, Convenient

Just what I needed:)

So happy to have happened past here!
Lovely people and delicious food, too many vegan options to choose from, never a problem being spoiled for choice. The vegan chicken wrap paired with a cold beer really hit the spot!

Pros: Good food, Many options, Cold beer

Cons: Nothing springs to mind

Good

Western restaurant, plenty of choices, items are clearly marked as "diary free" or "contain milk". There are also dessert, I gave a quick look at the ingredients and it doesn't seem there is honey

Vegan Option in Heritage George town

Very good options, 90% of items on menu are vegan. Serves all Arabic items mainly but also has several options of pizza.

Good food

Falafel plate was delicious but the portion of garlic sauce and hummus could have been more substantial and more pickles would have made the plate better. Plus a bit awkward to eat off small plate. The baklava is dairy free but taste a bit disappointing.

Falafel hecho al momento

Los falafeles y el humus están muy buenos. La masa es casera y hacen las bolitas y fríen al momento. Eso sí, ojo con la pizza que es picantísima y no lo pone en la carta. Los wraps muy buenos.

Great place for a late dinner

This place serves mostly typical middle eastern food. I enjoyed the food. They are open until late, which is convenient. The portion sizes are fairly small, especially when considering the prices.

Great falafel and superb hummus

The hummus here was super nice and creamy. The falafel was nice and crunchy (not dry like other places). Overall very fresh. Would definetely recommend.

Ok

Ok if your hungry but the falafel wrap is nothing special. (basic salad, falafel was good )
With all the great reviews I had very high expectations.
But I wasn’t really satisfied. SThe sauce was way too fatty for me (my stomach can’t handle too fatty. So I didn’t feel well afterwards).
Very confusing when a shop has written vegan all over but aren’t really.?So I am not sure if the sauce really was vegan? I forgot to ask because I actually thought this place is vegan 🫣
But that’s my fault 😬

Pros: Spacious seating, Paper straws

10/10

Definitely a vegetarian restaurant with a lot of vegan options on the menu. All clearly labelled if contains dairy. Food was AMAZING couldn’t fault it at all. Good portions and a decent price, staff are lovely and welcoming.

The vegan schnitzel with ‘spicy’ capsicum sauce wasn’t spicy but still delicious. Garlic sauce is great. Schnitzel is not hard/over fried which is fantastic.

Chicken drumsticks are moist and practically fall off the ‘bone’.

Pizza is also fully and full of flavour. Does have pineapple on, which we don’t mind.

Only issue I had was having to ask for my bottled water 3 times, I needed up walking to a 711 across the road becuase I needed a drink but I’ll still give 5 ⭐️ becuase the food was amazing. I wish I had more time there so I could have tried more of the menu!!!

Pros: Menu size , Portion size , Taste

Bar-restaurant I think.

The shop sells a mixture of vegan dishes and dishes with the dairy (mozzarella sticks), mostly are deep-fried items but the food taste good.

Staff confirmed certain dishes do not contain alliums so I went ahead to order.

Pros: Alcohol available if u enjoy, Falafel is not dry!

Cons: There may be loud music during dinner time
