Frische ausbalancierte Küche

Wir hatten die gemischte Vorspeisenplatte in vegan probiert.
Hatte lange nicht so leckere Falafel, perfektes Hummus und Babaganush 🤤🤤
Selbst das Brot - so gut
Es schmeckt alles super frisch, Küche ist dennoch sehr flott.
Schade um die Lage, das Restaurant hätte einen netteren Außenbereich verdient und eine viel leckerere Schorle 😅

Pros: Falafel 🤩, Geschmack , Vegane Auswahl

Cons: Die Weißweinschorle war gar nicht gut , Wenn du es als Negatives zählst, es ist teurer

Great place and delicious food

At Za Zaa you can find Mezza to share, bowls or even burgers - everything is vegetarian and a big part of the menu is vegan. I love the vibe of the restaurant 😊

You will not leave hungry

This restaurant is great for a meal with friends or family, as you can try many different foods with the mezze, and you will not leave hungry. It's not cheap, but it is worth it given the quantity and quality of the food you get.
They have Vegan, Vegetarian and even gluten-free options.

Pros: Quality, Quantity, Friendliness

Cons: Price

Better be hungry

Friendly and professional, you'll be guided to your table. The food comes in large portionsand is of good quality and taste. Esp. the home made ice teas with sorbeied ice, granateapfel seeds and fresh mint.
the platters look appetizing too, ao best come hungry and thirsty.
And: lt's absolutely recommended to book in advance. This place is well-liked and frequented, thus crowded.

Lecker

(Diese Bewertung ist für ZaZaa Spalen) Eher auf der teuren Seite für einen Falaffel (11 Sfr.), aber es lohnt sich definitiv.

flatter for 4 is enough for 5

We ordered a vegan platter for 4 to share with 5 people. It was more than enough for 5. 2 bowls of couscous 1 with rice, 4 different houmous, moussaka, stuffed peppers, rice rolls, 3 different hot snacks including falafel. there was also a plate of salad. including drinks we paid 35 CHF per person.

Pros: different things to taste

Cons: no paper menu. download on your phone

New favorite in Basel

Really great food if you like this style of food (I love it). They know what they're doing here and the quality is very good. Clearly labeled and many options for vegans. I had the vegan mezze for 1, and it was ample sized, had a great variety of items, and was delicious.

Note: as is common here, reservations are highly recommended, even on a weekday.

It's true, the prices here are not cheap (normal dinner for 2 with 1 drink will be CHF 60-70) but this is a normal price in CH. The difference is that you will pay this price even for awful food. Maybe you go to a restaurant and order their one sad veggie burger option for CHF25-30 and it's not good. At least here you get amazing food for the money.

I have not yet tried their vegan/veggie places in town...

Pros: Great food, Many options, Clear labels

Cons: A bit pricey, Reservation maybe needed

Sehr gutes "teil"veganes Restaurant

Sehr schönes Restaurant, mit guter Veganer Auswahl. Das Essen, Burger war perfekt.
Die Preise befinden sich an der oberen Grenze. Der Marokanische Tee war zu teuer.
Daher nur 3 Sterne.

Best vegan food I had in CH

This was my best eating-out experience in Switzerland in the past 4 years! I’ve also been to the vegetarian and vegan branches but the food here is much better! I had the oriental burger, which is to die for and the best variation of falafel I had so far. They use very interesting spices and offer many different versions of hummus. Vegan options are clearly marked and the portions are huge. There is one downside: this restaurant is so popular that it is always full and they advice you to reserve at least 3 days in advance.

Labeled vegan options

The menu has a decent amount of vegan options and a lot of vegeterian options. Make sure to tell the server that you want the vegan version though because some dishes are vegeterian or vegan. The falafel burger was delicious, the mezze options are good as well.

Pros: Labeled vegan / vegeterian dishes, Not too pricy for Switzerland, Friendly servers
