Great food - just have the burger

The restaurant served a delicious burger—the first true junk food experience I've had since I began traveling through the Balkans over a month ago.

I must admit, if I was home or any other city or country where they actually do have vegan burgers, this burger would be quite mediocre. But since most of the vegan food around in this country is grilled paprika or salads or pizzas without cheese, this burger was absolutely amazing.

The atmosphere was pleasant, with comfortable outdoor seating, though it was a bit warm due to the heat. The waitstaff was not only attentive but also well-versed in veganism, with many vegan listings on the menu. We ultimately decided on the burger, which was juicy, flavorful, and paired with crispy fries.

For two burgers (which come with fries), vegan mayo, two waters, and a beer, the total came to just over 2,000 lek. It was worth every penny, and we’ll definitely return if we’re in the area again. So, if you visit, I highly recommend trying the burger—it was excellent.

Pros: Vegan burger

Cons: Hot outdoor seating

Poor service, ok food

The service was not good, it felt really awkward from the moment we entered. They did not know the difference between vegan and vegetarian, even though the menu lists these options separately (we asked what the vegan option consisted of and they listed halloumi among other things). The food was ok, at least it was a nice change from stuffed peppers. It was also quite strange, when we were ordering a girl walked to us from inside the restaurant and interrupted us to beg for money. She and the waiter had a long conversation (while she kept gesturing for us to give her money), and it seemed like they knew each other. Don't really know what happened there but it felt quite strange.

Just good!

Thanks to this app and the reviews, I had an amazing dinner here. A very good falafel pita with hummus, fries and veggies. Their greek salad also tastes awesome (make sure they exclude rhe cheese). Server understood what vegan means 👌

Pros: Falafel pita!, Service, Sea view

delicious vegan food

We had some amazing vegan food, we order falafel pita wrap (with salad and vegan mayo!!!), great quality hummus and delicious stuffed grape leaves (vine leaves).

We only found this place on our last day in Albania and we were frustrated as vegan food is limited and can be repetitive in Albania. The worker was really accommodating and had a great understanding of what was and wasn’t vegan on the menu. He explained that in the busier summer months (June-august) they also offer a vegan burger. Lovely atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating with sea views. I would 100% recommend if you are hoping for something other than grilled vegetables. The food was decently priced for great quality👏🏼

Cute spot but average wraps

Mostly falafel items - and the wrap you have to ask to not add the yogurt sauce then it’s vegan. Was an okay place and hard to find anything vegan in vlore so this was welcome

Pros: Filling, Cheap, Nice location

Cons: Little vegan options

Great food

Great food in an area that generally doesn't have many vegan options. Lovely falafel and hummus and a falafel pita vegan with hummus

Not the best, but good enough

It was nice to find a place that had falafel, hummus etc. It was al a bit too salty for our taste and they where out of hummus.
Staff was friendly.

Pros: Not too expensive, Some veggie and vegan options

Cons: Bit to salty for our taste

Lush falafel pitta

It was nice to have falafel after 3 days of eating salad and grilled vegetables. We had to confirm no cheese and no mayo.
We followed directions via happy cow but they were a bit off and it was 10 minutes along.

Good food, great price

Hummus, falafel, stuffed grapevine leaves and pitta all on the menu (unlike the other review) and delicious, with an amazing view and good price!

Pros: Options in a very limited area, Great view, Great price

Cons: Not labelled vegan, as with anywhere here

Not suitable for vegans

In the hope of having a vegan dinner, we were left very disappointed.
Despite what they have on the menu, they don't do falafels or hummus..
Therefore you are left with fries, salad or pita bread.
This is not a vegan friendly place.

Cons: No vegan food. Incorrect menu. Bad service
