Sehr lecker, aber man muss es scharf mögen - Edit
Fände es wirklich lecker. Aber es war Recht scharf. Die Auswahl ist nicht die größte und es ist etwas teurer. Trotzdem einen Besuch wert.
Read morePros: Rein vegan, Sitzen drinnen und draußen, Freundliche Bedienung
Cons: Gut gewürzt, Kline Auswahl, Etwas teurer

I had the Bulgogi cheese steak and it just hit all the right spots for me. It was really delicious, so cheesy and all the right flavour combinations. This definitely beats the cheese stake I had in Philadelphia, which is known for their cheese stakes.

lecker - Edit
wir hatten als vorspeise die pulled pork tacos. sie waren lecker, nur etwas zu viel von der gochumayo & gern mehr koriander!!
Read moredann hatte ich die dragon noodles, die waren sehr gut. meine freundin hatte die ben ben noodles, sie war zufrieden (habe auch probiert und wir waren beide der meinung es wäre mit erdnuss statt sesam noch besser). etwas mehr würze wäre auch noch gut gewesen.
die portionen der hauptspeisen waren groß, aber auch etwas teuer. knapp 20 euro pro hauptspeise.
personal war nett, wir würden wieder kommen.

It’s good depending what you order - Edit
Fully vegan - definitely a plus
Read moreLocation is a fair walk from city centre (30-35min but you can combine it with sightseeing)
Menu via QR code and everything labeled and description with pics
Kombucha was great
Tried a bit of the cheeseburger and it was great too! Beyond meat patty? Great cheese and sauce - I believe they make all their sauces in house.
Fries were great for 3.9 extra
The Bali salad was good but there is a but.
Good: portion size, peanut sauce, tempeh and greens. Looked good too
Bad: pineapple (not sure if they used canned - then rather don’t use any), jackfruit had a weird taste and cold from the fridge. Broccoli tasted raw and cold.
Overall wouldn’t recommend this dish also has not much to do with Bali just because it has a peanut sauce 😅
Also long waiting time. Clearly understaffed but crazy how only two people could do everything together
The air is stuffy. There is no aircon and they have an open kitchen where they fry things so you can imagine. The back door is open but doesn’t do much. Europe summer makes it cold to leave front door open too. There’s two tables outside as well. Can agree with others: please why is it so difficult to wipe down tables after each customer?
Cool and unique interior with homemade kimchi etc.
No cash
Can’t compete with great vegan restaurants around the world unfortunately but for Holland it’s probably great 😆

Pros: Cheeseburger , All vegan
Cons: Waiting times , Bali bowl , Air quality
bottino
Hi Sarilein,
Read moreThank you for the lengthy review and for highlighting several positive aspects of your visit including the sauces, that yes, you are right, are homemade. In respect of your time, please allow us to clarify a couple of points:
The Bali Salad is our take on a classic Gado Gado salad. Famous all throughout Indonesia. We basically chose to omit the egg for obvious reasons :-)
Pineapple: Yes it is preserved pineapple. Our creative choice. As it is the cold jackfruit (afterall this refreshing a salad) and the slightly blanched (not raw) broccoli. We like the crunch instead of a soft broccoli. Again, a matter of creative choice.
Sorry we missed the mark on the waiting time. We are typically faster but sometimes we can slip a bit. But we always aim for friendliness. Thanks for calling our attention to the tables.

Vorspeise Tacis waren sehr lecker, aber die Bowls hatten einen komischen sauren Geschmack als ob die Gewürze nicht richtig abgestimmt sind.. Würde hier nicht mehr hingehen :(

perfect fancy vegan dinner - Edit
It is a bit pricey, but it feels like it should be. The place, the atmosphere, the food, the serving, it all makes sense for this money. I took my non vegan friend there and we both loved all of it.

Delicious vegan food! We had the Ban Ban noodles and the Bali salad which were both served with fresh foods. The service was very fast and friendly. You definitely need to reserve a table in advance as the place is quite small and well booked.

Lovely food - Edit
Really lush food ! The food was delish ! I had the Dragon Noodles - delightful! Wine selection was lush too! However tables were not cleaned and wiped after each customer and our table was quite dirty and the service wasn’t Great - more staff needed to make it run smoothly to make it a a 4/5 or 5/5 rating
Read morePros: Tasty food and lots of options , Music was cool , Nice breeze coming through the door
Cons: Didn’t wipe down / clean tables between customers, Staff seemed a little under pressure , Would have spent more if service was smoother

Thanks for the honest feedback — really glad you enjoyed the food and vibes! You’re totally right about the tables and service, and we hear you. We were a bit short that day, but that’s on us to manage better. Appreciate you pointing it out, and we hope to make it a full 5/5 next time!

Great food, worth the price - Edit
We had Miso Ramen and Khao soi noodles, both had a very rich taste, exciting textures and flavours. Though it is rather expensive, the food was worth the price. The only downside is that it is a small space, would recommend to book a table in advance.

Nice vibe and food - Edit
This place has a nice vibe and friendly staff. Most foods are tasty, but some are only so-so. Check my pictures for reviews per item.
Read moreOur favourites were peanut butter curry, cheezy burger, kimchi burger, cheesy steak sandwich, Reuben sandwich, ribs and mushroom bitterballen.
The desserts are very good as well: the cheezy cake is creamy and fresh/fruity, the apple pie ‘warm’ and tasty and the snickers rich and sweet.
bottino
Thanks for the detailed review and the love for so many of our dishes! 🙌 Great to hear the desserts hit the mark too. We’re always working to improve, so we really appreciate the honest notes. Hope to have you back soon!"
