10/10 vegan Shawarma & cookies shake - Edit
The vegan Shwarma is a solid 10/10. I keep on ging back with the intention to try new items (vegan breakfast, vegan Schnitzel Burger, evening tapas with vegan Köfte) but I always end up picking the Shawarma again because it’s guaranteed to keep me full for half a day and just tastes too good! I also didn’t have such an authentic Shawarma since living in Germany. I will be back with a new item to review hopefully 🤞🏼
Read moreThe vegan cookie shake is the best vegan shake in Bristol by far!
Only downside: had to ask for plate because the Shawarma is way too big for the little tray
The vegan shish kebab also exceeded expectations!!

Such a shame! - Edit
Went to Yafo this morning for breakfast - first time after couple of months. Such a shame as new management and they have changed the menu. What was a fab vegan breakfast has now been changed to what feels like an after thought vegan breakfast which you could get better in Tesco cafes!! They used to have scrambled tofu, mushrooms, fava beans, tater tots, tomatoes on the vine, avocado slices and much more. Now it is two mash and veggie bits sausages, baked beans with harissa spice in it, a grilled tomato (literally no flavour), tater tots and a smaller portion of smashed avocado and pita bread. Complained to the member of staff and they said that they had already complained to new management about the changes and were ignored! Also had a salad box by delivery couple of weeks ago which was not as good as previous so obviously saving money on ingredients and not delivering the authentic experience it used to be. Such a shame!!

Good wholesome food - Edit
Came here as a group of 5 for lunch to celebrate a birthday. The whole menu is vegetarian with lots of vegan options and it was a pretty substantial menu, so it was hard to choose!
Read moreI ordered a Middle Eastern, which turned out to be similar to a pizza. It was super flavourful. I'd hoped for a bit of spice, but it didn't really have a kick. Also shared some hummus and the oyster wings (these were really good, if a little greasy).
Definitely recommend. I'll be back to try more of the menu. It looks a little pricey, but the portion sizes are ok given the cost and are pretty standard for that part of Bristol.

Truly yummy - Edit
Amazing middle Eastern food which such great flavours. Highly recommended the shish kebab and the hummus plates. The pitta breads are like soft pillows. It's out of this world. And despite being full I finished with a piece of vegan baklava. Amazing.

Amazing flavours - Edit
Oh wow the flavours of all the dishes we had were amazing. Tempting to lick the plates clean as the sauces are the best bit.
Read moreWe had 4 dishes between 2 of us and that was perfect, plus dessert. The aubergine dish beginning with 'j' was the very best.

Decent - Edit
It’s, to quote my partner, “gentrified falafel.” I had the shawarma fries, which were very nice, but could have been a little more generous on the shawarma side. The falafel and hummus was really bloody good, as was my partner schnitzel (hehehe).

Excellent filling food, I had the vegan schnitzel and it was perfectly spiced & crispy on the outside. Falafels were also crispy and flavourful.

Fantastic Middle Eastern Food - Edit
I would say this is the best Middle eastern restaurant I have been too. Every dish was flavourful and different. The service was very good. They do like their pomegranate seeds! All veggie and plenty of dishes for a vegan.

Delicious. Had the salad bowl to takeaway. Falafel is so good, crispy and flavourful. Salads are varied and tasty and the hummus is to die for. Will definitely be returning to try more dishes when I can as they all look really interesting and innovative.
