A warm, welcoming & colorful vegetarian restaurant/cafe that doubles as an art gallery. Serves a large variety of traditional Egyptian food and drinks, some of which is vegan and others that could possibly be made vegan upon request. A tourist place with normal tourist pricing. Open Mon-Thu 9:00am-10:00pm, Fri 9:00am-2:00pm, Sat-Sun 9:00am-10:00pm.

Lovely veggie restaurant - Edit
The food was amazing and the people working there were lovely and very attentive. They understand vegan diet so ask which menu items are vegan. Fully recommend!

Read moreActually, to be sincerely honest in my humble opinion, without being sentimental and of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, and without hiding any thoughts in my mind, and without lies to the actual truth, with my clear open mind and clean heart, expressing whatever is embedded inside me for a long time which I didn't say because I was nervous. But today, by gathering all the courage and motivation, I just want to say that I actually feel and think that I have absolutely nothing to say. Thank you!

The only pure vegetarian restaurant in Luxor - Edit
Good food. Good people. 😃 I do not consume garlic and onions, and they were very accommodating to my request. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Very good - Edit
Loved the food I had there, especially the green beans. There are a lot of vegan options. As many people were so excited about the cauliflower, I wanted to stress that it's deep fried and thus a little too greasy for me. Everything else was perfect. It's nice that you can have a look at the gallery while waiting for the food.

Delicious food - Edit
Egyptian vegetarian food, made to order. I especially loved the “Eggplant Wanna’s way”, but every dish we had (bissara, moussaka, fried cauliflower and more) was delicious and filling. I believe all dishes could be adapted if you are vegan (although most are already vegan) Lovely, friendly English speaking staff and a very sweet cat who will snuggle herself down next to you but won’t be begging for food! Slightly awkward to find but only a short walk from where the ferry docks on the West Bank.

Wow, this little vegetarian restaurant serves AMAZING food. From the salads to the sides, the dips, the owner and staff, the cats and warmth.
Read moreIn Egypt I was struggling to find a balanced vegetarian diet. When we found Wannas we came here every day I was in Luxor.
And it's not another restaurant that serves some vegetarian food also. No, they Only serve vegetarian delicious fresh dishes 😋😍

Amazing - Edit
We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The owner/chef makes you feel like he is your private chef and he takes great pride in what he produces. Awesome vegan food. We were very full for $12 total bill (before tip) for 2 people.

Delicious! Best vegan food in Egypt - Edit
This place was great. The menu looks fairly simple fare but it was the most flavorful and delicious food I've had in Egypt so far! In general I have found vegan dishes pretty plain and this restaurant was a pleasant exception. Warm welcome, comfy space, and plenty of options. Tomato soup was really great. Definitely check it out if you're in Luxor!

A must try! - Edit
We absolutely loved this restaurant on the West Bank! Was a great atmosphere and super friendly hosts. The food was melt in your mouth delicious! Next time I think we will order the whole menu. Only downside is that I cannot fit more in my stomach. 1000 stars! 90% of the menu is vegan and most of the rest can be made vegan.

Very tasty food and great vibe. - Edit
I liked the food a lot, it was a big enough portion for the main dishes with some starters. Most dishes on the menu are vegan and some can be prepared vegan. We enjoyed some eggplant and cauliflower dishes, had nice flavour and spicyness. The ginger tea was also delightful.

nice vegan food and art café - Edit
they were offering us food even though it was Ramadan, staff is friendly but doesn’t speak that much English. They made some dishes extra for us and everything was really tasty. They have food that’s seasonal, so the options depend on when you visit. We went there after an exhausting sightseeing trip at the west bank und recharged our energy!
