Convenient & unique - Edit
Great little restaurant that serves vegan & vego options - Owner is very accommodating for vegans & vegos.
Read moreI had a vegan “kebab” which consisted of soy meat & veg with a vegan mayo/aioli in a crispy bread bun.
We had a side of hummus with pita bread also.
The kebab was great, loved it.
The hummus was ok, not the best I’ve had but it did taste authentic.
The sore is very cozy so you may queue if you want a seat, otherwise the street out front is very quiet - afew people stood outside and ate.
Store had a eftpos machine but was only taking cash when we visited.
Pros: Vegan options, Friendly service & owner, Quick service
Cons: Small/cozy store, Cash only at time of visit

This place is so good. The owner is lovely and given how small the place is, when he cooks it up, the smell of spices dips the air. I had the falafel plate which was awesome. Home made pita and hummus made it extra special.

Five Stars! - Edit
Happy cow won’t let me give it 5 stars cuz it’s not a fully vegan place, but it’s definitely 5 stars. Been in Japan for 6 months, and this is the first place that has a good falafel. Japanese places like to make falafels that are usually raw and flavorless; not here! The falafels have the correct texture (crispy and fluffy) with tons of herbs. Small place with authentic food and flair. Generous and flavorful toppings, including tons of vegetables and tahini sauce. Now my favorite place to go to in Osaka for falafel and hummus—and favorite in Japan, really.
Read morePros: Falafel (texture and flavor), Clearly labeled vegan items, Friendly owner
Cons: Small place (but typical for Japan)

Amazing falafel - Edit
Great falafel, tender and flavourful. Beautiful smooth creamy hummus and babaganoush, fluffy fresh pita. I was very happy to have eaten here.

Amazing vegan kebab!!! 🔥 - Edit
I ordered pick-up from Sababa at multiple occasion while staying a week in Osaka, and damn - it was so good!!!!
Read moreThe falafel is pretty average, but try the vegan kebab and take hummus with pita on the side - I promise you won't be disappointed!
The pitas come in half and full sizes. Half is pretty good if you order some other stuff on the side, and the full size is good for when you want the pita by itself. Vegan options are clearly marked on the menu as well, and they're on UberEats!
Overall, a lovely venue I'd gladly visit again 🫶🏻
Pros: Extremely tasty and reasonable priced , Central location , Friendly staff
Cons: Could be queues and slow delivery of food

Unimpressive falafels - Edit
I got the vegan plate and don’t understand the high reviews - the falafel, their namesake, were not good. Store-quality hummus. An uninspired salad that looked nothing like the photo. Scarcely any flavour.
Read moreAn extra star since they do have plenty of vegan options, including soy meat - the offerings just aren’t tasty, though.
Pros: Many vegan options , Not busy when I went
Cons: Food is not flavourful

Great options and very aware of gf - Edit
Was so refreshing to have somebody so aware of gf options, falafels are gluten free, ask for no pita and get the plate. Everyone really enjoyed our meals here. Fantastic. Ate 2 plates because I was so excited to have some veggies and protein finally.
