Nice place and very pleasant proprietor - Edit
Organic felafels very good in wholemeal pitta bread made on the premises. Pakoras also good. Chilli sauce is freshly made, vegan and without sugar. Confirmed that other sauces are not vegan. Can pay with card.

Super healthy and tasty - Edit
Nice atmosphere, authentic food, organic, fresh vegetables, and all whole-food (they even have home-made whole spelt pitas!). I loved it.
Read moreI don’t give them 5 stars because the sauces of the pakora were all with animal-milk yogurt but the spicy one. I hope they veganize them soon (please).
Pros: Organic whole-food cuisine, Healthy and tasty, Nice place and atmosphere
Cons: Use of animal-milk yogurt in sauces

Okay pitas - Edit
Fine for a quick meal if one is in the neighbourhood anyway. It's nice that the pita is homemade and other things are fresh. On the downside, as a vegan you really only have the spicy dressing to choose, which makes it a bit dry unless you pay extra for hummus or babaganoush.

love this place! - Edit
Food is simple and very very good. I love the place, everything is home made with organic ingredients. The pita falafel and the desserts are exceptional.

Expensive - Edit
They make fresh pitas with wholegrain bread (big plus) but the portions.are small and quite expensive in my opinion. Still a good spot in case you need something quick.

interresting - Edit
Quite unique in Brussels; It's a nice option if you plan a night out on Trendy "Parvis de Saint Gilles"
Read moreThe interior is cosy (...they are famous for their antique tiles on the floor!)
The food is genuine as well, home made and filling.

Pros: the tiles!, 100% home made, nice trendy neighbourhood
Cons: a bit repetitive if you go there often, you might have to explain the word "vegan"

Falafels, pakoras, hummus - Edit
Not much choices on the menu: as the name of this snack states: "Falafels and Pakoras". I had one pita with hummus, 4 falafels and salad for 6.80 euros. Which is more expensive than in your usual neigborhood snack.
Read moreThe falafels where quite good but not to die for, the (homemade) hummus was delicious as well as the babaganoush. The pita bread was also good and probably fresh (way better than the packaged ones!).
It is a small, quiet little snack place, perfect for a quick bite between two beers on the "parvis de Saint Gilles".
Update June 16: tried again but it was not as tasty as in my memory, quite bland to be honest even though the hummus was good, the sandwich as a whole (bread+vegetables+falafels) was very disapponting.
Pros: Quiet atmosphere, Terrace
Cons: Expensive for what it is

Very good homemade food - Edit
Everything this snack has to offer is homemade (including pita bread) and the great taste reflects this.
Read moreThere isn't a lot of choice and the portions could be bigger, but the quality of the food compensates this nicely.
Pros: Homemade food, Relaxed venue and atmosphere
Cons: Not a lot of choice, Portions could be bigger

Overprized and not so yummy - Edit
Once again I had the impression that people think that being vegan means being on a diet:
Read moreI took the menu which should price wise have been the biggest dish (11 Euros). Got 2 falafel, 2 Pakora, 1 spoon of humus, 1 spoon of tahini and 1 spoon of baba ganoush and a bit of salat and a pita. None of it was especially tasty - humus and tahini tasted almost the same, baba ganoush did not taste like anything. Only the falafel were yummy.
Overall: completely over prized for what you get! There are way better options such as Mr Falafel where you get a pita that you can fill yourself with loads of stuff and get salad as well for almost half the prize
Pros: organic, vegan options
Cons: small portions, expensive, no vegan sauces
