Great food, relaxed seating - Edit
We went there twice in June and really enjoyed the food. Great taste and friendly staff!
Read moreThere is an area for sitting on the ground as well as on chairs, so enough options. The only downside was that it was boiling hot inside even with the fans. We had to sit directly under one to deal with the heat.
Pros: Seating options, Relaxed atmosphere
Cons: Gets really warm in summer

Really nice - Edit
Went to their restaurant in Pokhara years ago and now when coming back to Kathmandu, I wanted to try their restaurant here. The food did not disappoint, it was as delicious as I remembered with a nice atmosphere. #Veganuary

Good food with a chilled vibe - Edit
The food was good but vegan options a little disappointing. They offer a 'vegan meat' pizza but the crust contains dairy milk and no vegan cheese option...Why??? The pasta was tasty and the small Mediterranean platter was delicious, with an option to sub babaganoush (contains mayo!!!) for falafel.
Read morePros: Options for vegan substitutes, Great vibe
Cons: Things that are naturally vegan have added dairy!

Cockroach in my pancake - Edit
I would give 0 stars but not possible (defaults to 2). First my pancakes came out burnt so returned them and the next pancake had a whole cockroach in it. I’m not one for leaving bad reviews but I will never eat here again.

Not what it use to be - Edit
Last time I visited was 2015 and was disappointed (2022). It has changed so much. The food options, quality and environment has dropped a lot. Wish the owners kept up with the place. Use to be very busy and lively in the past.

Great Israeli falafel plate - Edit
I've been a few times. The big plate with falafel, hummus, tahini. Baba ganouj, labne, matbucha, chopped salad... is delicious and very filling. Nice cocktails, too. They weren't sickly sweet like other places. I also liked sitting on low couches with low tables. Good for eating and chatting.
Read morePros: Healthy, tasty food, Cocktails were also good, There's an OR2K in Kathmandu & Pokhara
Cons: Western food costs more, but not too much

Good Food But Be Careful As A Vegan - Edit
I waited nearly 40 minutes for my food at this restaurant, and realized that half of my meal was not vegan (contained dairy).
Read moreI confirmed the dish I ordered was vegan when I saw what appeared to be yogurt. The momos were not "fully" vegan.
I would highly recommend this restaurant create a separate vegan menu to avoid such confusion.
I put some lentils on rice,, and that was tasty, but I found the greens to be extremely salty.

They changed the menu, now they have a printed one. I asked for vegan breakfast and the guy was looking at me with a confused face. One of the only things I could order was the falafel, that was quite good but expensive.

So good! - Edit
I ate a smoothie bowl and pumpkin cake. The Smoothie bowl was great as it usually does. The pumpkin cake was perfect. It was sweet enough and soft.

Nice but room for improvements - Edit
Nice big vegetarian/vegan restaurant, not easy to find. Entry point of Mandala street, small allee, 2nd floor. Some spots are very dark, menu is sizeble but very difficult to read and quite dirty to hold. Soup was not particular good, rest ok.

Can’t get enough of this place - Edit
Delicious healthy meals, great for sharing starters and their coconut banana lassi is so good! We came here for Christmas dinner because we knew it would be the perfect place for a delicious vegan feast. Very comfortable place. And they have heaters! Which is a welcome treat in the winter months!

Very cozy restaurant in the center of Kathmandu - Edit
I really really liked this cozy, relaxed place, not only for its delicious food but especially for the relaxed and cozy atmosphere. You need to take your shoes off and sit on huge pillows which makes it such a chilled place. We tried a lot of the food during our stay in Kathmandu and everything was really delicious. The menu is inspired from the middle east with Israeli dishes like hummus but also features typical Nepali food like Dhal Bhat. The restaurant is vegetarian but many options that are either vegan or can easily be veganized, they serve plant based milk for hot drinks, gluten free options available as well. Very recommendable! :)
Read morePros: Many items are vegan or can easily be veganized, Cozy and relaxed atmosphere
