Patchy - Edit
That’s a tough one.
Read moreOn the one hand, Just Vege offers decent food for an affordable charge and has plenty of clearly labelled vegan dishes on the menu. On the other hand, the kitchen lacks hygiene.
The low-key ambiance and the unpretentious food is definately something I take a fancy to.
There are both outdoor and indoor seatings available. Service is friendly and the food is good. Decent falafel. Overall good value for money. Open till late, too.
However, the kitchen looks gross. I am not saying that the cooking utensils or the worktop were dirty - but some areas within the kitchen were. It was not only the sticky floor - the microwave was covered in rancid oil, especially its door, that is touched by chef’s fingers frequently, same holds true for the stove.
The food was good regardless, but a thorough cleaning would make Just Vege a more attractive place.

Good fries, decent burger - Edit
The fries (which you can get in the combo) are really great. Well seasoned. The burger (avocado crunch burger) was pretty good, although it really didn’t taste much like avocado. Clearly labeled vegan options.

Casual & friendly atmosphere - Edit
The workers are always super friendly and nice even when it's busy. There's a possibility to get a cheap portion of a few falafel pieces with hummus which is exactly what you need sometimes :)

Good food - Edit
Nice and popular but small place. I ate the spicy burger and the vegan meze plate. Burger wasn't anything special but still a good burger. The meze plate was really nice and I'd recommend it if you're planning to visit this place!

Good fast food. - Edit
Kallio is a great place for vegans, and this is one reason why. Small burger place offering a decent number of vegan options. Reasonable prices, decent food. Not much more to say.

They have a nice selection of basic vegan food, nothing fancy but a step up from fast food. The meze plate is my favorite.

Small and tasty - Edit
The staff was super friendly and the food tasty! This was one of the only places open on a public holiday, so it was packed but they were cooking so fast that we didnt even have to wait long.

Cozy and tasty - Edit
Situated in one of Helsinki's most hipster street and perhaps the most vegan friendly neighbourhood, Just Vege offers a delightful menu with a cozy atmosphere. We ordered burger meals with fries and salad. Ask for vegan options. Intrigued to taste more - especially the pita menu.

Good food - Edit
Vegetarian place where most of the plates are vegan or can be veganized.
Read moreWe had the meze, the mushroom steak, and the vegetarian BBQ pulled. They were all tasty, but not amazing.
Btw, the BBQ pulled is actually a burger, so I think they should move it to the burger menu to avoid confusion (we were not expecting a burger when ordering it).
The staff was friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed, more like a cantine-type of place.
Pros: many vegan options, tasty
Cons: not all vegan

Good! - Edit
I like this place. The meze plate is my favorite dish, and it's always quite good. The flavors are very rich, and I appreciate that they offer a lot of different dishes (like the jackfruit BBQ sandwich or seitan pita, both also good). Keep in mind that you have to SPECIFICALLY ask the cashier to make some dishes vegan, even if it says it's vegan already. Just double check. :)

Good food - Bad hygiene - Edit
Small restaurant for around 10 people. I was pleased with the food, but very unhappy with hygiene. There is no hygiene in this place. For example, the man who works food handles money, handles table cleaning, and handles food all with his hands without washing. The woman does the same, she picked up previous clients' food, threw it to the garbage, and then kept on making food with her hands. No gloves used. Also we got one fork and one knife that were very dirty. Also, the tables are not wiped after a client leaves. The staff (2) is not particularly friendly either, which probably stems from the fact that they're extremely busy and stressed. Also, vegan options are quite limited. Helsinki really needs a proper non fast-food, clean, à la carte 100% vegan restaurant, just like Tallinn, Riga, Vilnius, Stockholm, Oslo, Warsaw, etc. have. If it was only about the food, I would probably come back, but due to bad hygiene I will not come back unless they improve in that area.
