Nice place in great location

Food was great. I really liked the kimchi burger. A lot of alternatives in menu, it was not easy to choose. Dessert Shake it up in strawbwrry basil flavor was really good. Tested a moctail as well. I will visit again. Service was really slow,, prepare to wait.

Pros: Lots of alternatives in menu

Cons: Very slow service

Varied options but expensive and impersonal

I got birria tacos - 2 for $12 even though I finished them each in about 3 bites. They were really yummy but I was surprised they didnt even come with a small salad or side or anything. Also, the only filling was the mest and juice - it came with some chopped onion you put in them yourself, and no other fillings. So I got some chips on the side which was fine. They had some really cool options but the full meals like the meatball dish or something all felt quite expensive like I think that was about €16, which is why I decided the tacos.

I went on my own; when I walked in, there was no one there to greet anyone and no table staff or anything, so I guessed I could sit anywhere - menus are on the table already so they dont bring them over to you. You go up to order and someone was behind the bar when I walked up, but left to go into the back room without saying anything to me, and I was left awkwardly standing there for 3 or 4 minutes. No one checks on you as you eat (thank god though because I do usually find that too much haha), and then youve already paid so you can just leave when youre done. It all felt a bit like I was gatecrashing the place or something. The beef in the tacos were yummy though.

Really tasty food

Lots of choice- I opted for a cheeze toastie with tomato soup, my husband had a burger and we shared sweet potato fries. All really delicious and fresh. Brunch looked tasty too.

Pros: All vegan , Range of options , Not just faux meat

Oh my gosh. Incredible

Got the pesto grilled cheese and tomato soup along with two “fish” tacos. Both were amazing but the sandwich and soup were especially what I needed on a chilly day after traveling. So cozy and such a lovely atmosphere. The blueberry kombucha was tasty too!

Very nice restaurant.

Service was a bit slow, and most of the food was a 7 out of ten. The ”fish” tacos, however, was an 11/10 😀

Pros: Tacos, Friendly staff, Nice atmosphere

Cons: Somewhat slow service

Great

The burgers were pretty good, especially the oyster mushroom, but the overall flavours were quite mild. I would have preferred something a bit stronger. The texture of the fries was perfect. The parmesan was an interesting addition but not to my taste. We had an enjoyable few hours here.

THE vegan burger restaurant in Helsinki

The burgers are good, some better than others, but overall the food is really great. The restaurant is cozy, a nice place to sit and have a few drinks. The playlist is great, and there is occasionally live DJs.

Indulgence

It's a fast food place. You shouldn't expect to find healthy options here. If you're up for it, there's plenty of choice.

The menu is not entirely on the same state as the website, making it impossible to order by the QR code on the table. Hope they fix that.

The venue is somewhat hidden at the top of the wide staircase.

Cozy place with tasty junk food

The atmosphere was laid back and nice. Food was delicious. The menu is (perhaps unsurprisingly) heavy on meat substitutes and the like, and could benefit from more natural options like beans etc.

Not too junky

The brunch options are actually rather moderate. I got the scramble plate and enjoyed it. The tempeh bacon was a surprising standout. I was surprised that the toast was dry, seems like a weird omission not to have vegan butter.

Pros: Well seasoned scramble, Juicy, tasty tempeh bacon, Solid mimosa

Cons: Dry toast, Potatoes not crispy

Funky place with tasty food

We had burgers, nuggets, "chicken" skewers and fries. The burgers especially were really tasty.
There is free water, and some sauces (ketchup, mustard, hot sauce).
Really good music and a cool interior.
Just one star reduction because the waitress was a bit impolite and not welcoming at all.

Pros: Tasty burgers, Cool interior , Great music

Cons: Waitress not very welcoming

Great food

Had a really tasty supper here of oyster mushroom & kimchi burger, and gyoza.
Service was a bit slow, as we ordered via the QR code rather than at the bar.
Otherwise, all good.

Good

Ordered a ton of food to split: junky burger, smash the junk burger, chipz with cheese sauce, flower wings, chicks on sticks, nachos a more dirty style, pesto punch gnocchi, romaine empire, and a snickers smoothie. Food was good and decently priced.

Loved it

Went there just before I needed to take a train to lapland and filled my belly with a delicious burger and some fries. A toastie to go- I asked without jalapeños, that didn't work, but it's ok. I would always come back and they deserve 5 stars 😊
Definitely recommended!

OK for a quick lunch

Called in here for a quick lunch when visiting the nearby Amos Rex art gallery. It's a fully vegan place offering street food such as burgers, tacos, grilled sandwiches & dirty fries. The menu isn't what you'd call innovative, but it's OK in a junky kind of way (I guess the clue is in the name). We shared some dirty fries and a kimichi & cheese grilled sandwich. Both were OK without being great. Worth a visit if you're hungry & hereabouts but don't go out of your way.

Pros: 100% vegan, Central location

Cons: No healthy options, Uninspiring menu

Just a simple vegan place

Service was a little bit slow, flavor was normal, not especially amazing and kombucha was incredibly expensive, 7€ and the price wasn't visible 😵‍💫

Pros: A vegan place in the main centre

Cons: Expensive kombucha, Very simple taste, Slow service

Geiles Junkfood

Das Essen ist sehr lecker. Ich kann vor allem die Tacos mit Austernpilzen empfehlen. Die Location ist sehr hip und gemütlich, direkt am Hauptbahnhof.

Decent vegan ‘junk’ food

I ordered the tofu and vegetable gyoza and the Seitan worshipper burger. The service was a little slow but it was a busy time so that’s okay.

The gyoza were deep fried not steamed/pan fried which I personally wasn’t a big fan of. The filling I thought was pretty bland.

The seitan burger I enjoyed a little more, the seitan itself and marinade was quite nice. But the rest of the burger ingredients were only okay. There was a bit too much of the garlic Mayo for my liking and overpowered the burger. But I suppose that’s to be expected if the restaurant is ‘Junky vegan’

Pros: Marinated seitan

Cons: Deep fried gyoza were quite bland

Heavy & tasty

The food is very tasty and "junky", the atmosphere is nice and inclusive, they even do drag brunches every now and then!
