Fresh and delicious

Enjoyed our lunch here! I had the vegan plate which was sort of a deconstructed schwarma with hummus, tomato, lettuce, onion, and soy 'meat'. Very fresh and tasty, came with a drink. The place is run by a friendly Aussie. Recommend :)

Friendly owner good food

The falafel and the vegan kebab were both tasty. The owner was very friendly and recommended us many other vegan places and a really cool bar called “hollow” (worth checking out!)

Un kebab vegan plein de saveurs !

Après une dizaine de jours au Japon, nous étions très heureux de manger dans ce restaurant pour changer un peu ! Nous avons pris le Vegan kebab en full pita (composé de "soy meat") et c'était délicieux ! Même en France on a jamais trouvé d'aussi bon kebab vegan. Le propriétaire parle très bien anglais et français, la communication était très facile.
Le restaurant est assez petit, avec quelques places assises sur les côtés comme sur un comptoir, ce qui rend le lieu très chaleureux. Nous sommes arrivés à 2 pour y manger un dimanche à 19h30, et nous avons eu une place dans soucis. Je recommande cet endroit sans hésitation !

Good falafel

The food was great! I preferred the falafel to the vegan kebab, but they were both good. The owner is so nice! The restaurant is open to the street and is down an alley. It is a small place.

so so good

honestly i’ve been there 4 times already but forgot to take a picture everytime because the food is good and the owner is so nice!
If you aren’t that hungry half a pita is enough but if you are hungrier i recommend a whole pita or the plate! i tried the falafel and the vegan kebab and both were on point! definitely check it out😄

Delivery Deliciousness

We ordered the vegan kebab bento and za’atar pita via Uber Eats. Both were delicious!!! If we lived in Osaka, we’d order this again and again.

Authentic and delicious

Lots of clearly marked vegan options, including sandwiches (pita and baguette with falafel, veggies, hummus), platters with beautifully prepared salads and delicious toasted pita and two kinds of hummus, zaatar pita, vegan dessert on the weekend, and more. Also tried the tahini fudge—so yummy! Good price for extremely delicious food with nice presentation and good portions. Owner is very friendly and can explain the menu in English. Music and interior decor make for an authentic and fulfilling experience. Owner said his business partner is a long time vegan😄Small space, but still sufficient for our family of 6.

Quick and tasty!

Tasty falafel in a pita full of fresh veggies! Perfect power snack on an early afternoon, whilst other nearby vegan options were still closed.

Great option for different cuisine in Japan

Nice to change things up as we have been eating lots of Japanese food. Probably the best non-Japanese food we had while we were here. Falafel was great and lots of toppings. Was a medium meal though so I was hungry soon after. Otherwise enjoyed it and would recommend.

Pros: Vegan options, Cute interior

Great falafel

A great place to stop for lunch. The falafel sandwich was exactly what I wanted, tasty, filling and cheap! The hummus plate is also a great option. The owner speaks perfect english, he was very kind and even treated my friend and I to some halva at the end of our meal.

Really Good Falafel!

The falafel here is really good - lots of flavour, texture, and diverse ingredients. It's conveniently located, and they can do to-go if you want to eat at home or at another bar nearby. I recommend it for sure.

Pros: Good quality, Convenient

Really good falafel!

We had the falafel sandwich and it was really good: lots of vegetables, freshly made, crispy falafel and creamy hummus.
The owner is originally from Israel but lived in Japan for a long time. He is really friendly and offered great tipps for things to do in Osaka.
