Solid Mediterranean Options

Falafel Sababa was a pretty good Mediterranean spot nearby Dotonbori that served up falafel (of course), hummus, and more. They offer an extensive vegetarian/vegan menu which made it easy for those with different dietary needs.

I went with their Vegan Kebab plate (¥1600) which included falafel, hummus, salad, pita, and other sides. The hummus was well-made and was the best part of the meal. If you're hungry, going for the plate felt like the best move.

The owner was friendly but he kept forgetting the drinks we had ordered with our meals. I figured it was hard since it was a 1-2 person shop but probably could've been handled a bit better by writing down what drink went with which meal.

Limited seating inside and out, so be sure to come with only a small group if you're able.

Cons: Limited seating inside

Delicious Israeli food!

The vegan options were clearly labeled and delicious. I enjoyed the mixed vegan plate which came with various different foods that were all delicious. The food was fresh and a generous portion. The owner, Moshe, was very nice and helpful. There is a small seating area. I highly recommend going!

Kebab shop

We had the vegan pita which was nice, a small serving and the place itself was a bit of a hole in the wall. Nice pita but you can’t really sit down there for too long it’s a bit dingy

Pros: Vegan options, English menu

Cons: Bit of a dodgy spot, Not much room to sit

Perfection in a pita! 🤩

Delicious food served quickly. The vegan kebab was excellent & is highly recommended. It was packed full of yummy veggies, vegan meat (soy?) and tasty sauce. I also had the falafel pita. This place is well worth visiting and the previous reviews were very accurate.

Pros: Delicious food , everything freshly made , great location

Nice!

Menu items with a green star next to them are vegan, and the ones with yellow stars are ovo-vegetarian.

The two of us weren’t extremely hungry, so we decided to share a mixed vegan platter. We were asked to sit at one of the two tables outside since they have limited indoor seating and require one order per person (understandably).

The mixed vegan platter comes with a full pita cut into quarters, three falafel, some vegan kebab, a salad with red cabbage and red onions, cucumbers, boiled carrots, roasted eggplant, hummus, and spicy sauce if you like the heat. It was pretty filling!

Water is self-service, and credit cards are accepted.

Yummy!

Had the vegan kebab and it was really yum, would recommend!😄The mock meat and egg plant were so good. Ate it twice during my stay nearby.
Shop is really small with limited seating so you couldn’t come here with a group.

Pros: Yum and fresh

Cons: Limited seating

Great middle eastern food

The place serves meat with mostly vegetarian/vegan options.
Moshe the owner is very friendly, recommended us about some vegan restaurants and cafe nearby, we ordered the meat kebab, vegan kebab and sabich and everything was so tasty and authentic just like the food we're used to back home! Would highly recommend Falafel Sababa.

Pros: Mostly vegi/vegan options, Tasty and authentic, Friendly

Cons: Very small place

Convenient & unique

Great little restaurant that serves vegan & vego options - Owner is very accommodating for vegans & vegos.

I had a vegan “kebab” which consisted of soy meat & veg with a vegan mayo/aioli in a crispy bread bun.

We had a side of hummus with pita bread also.

The kebab was great, loved it.

The hummus was ok, not the best I’ve had but it did taste authentic.

The sore is very cozy so you may queue if you want a seat, otherwise the street out front is very quiet - afew people stood outside and ate.

Store had a eftpos machine but was only taking cash when we visited.

Pros: Vegan options, Friendly service & owner, Quick service

Cons: Small/cozy store, Cash only at time of visit

Delicious food (5 ⭐️)

Tried Shakshuka, Humus and Vegan pita. App would not let me rate 5 stars because they serve meat too.

This place is so good. The owner is lovely and given how small the place is, when he cooks it up, the smell of spices dips the air. I had the falafel plate which was awesome. Home made pita and hummus made it extra special.

Pros: Small and intimate setting, Delicious food
