Excellent place for a quick bite

So many vegan options to choose from - the "v" on the menu was vegan😄For mains, there's a vegan burger, falafel wrap, or plant based shawarma.
I went shawarma and it was very tasty indeed. Plant based chick*n with lots of tasty veggies and sauce.
Only downside was because it was so popular it was pretty noisy, on a Saturday evening, we struggled to hear each other so didn't stay in for long.
Very good food makes it worth it.
Would definitely go back.

Really tasty food here

We had a falafel in pitta with Spicey wedges. This food tasted great, and it was really filling and such a great value meal too! We were so satisfied by this meal we didn’t eat again that day!

Pros: The food was really well prepared with tasty spice, Fresh and wholesome , Chilled out atmosphere

Umi, we love you

My partner and I work in the city centre and eat at at Umi at least once a week. We cannot stay away from the Palestinian falafel, I'd easily eat it every single day for lunch 😂 the staff are lovely and the place is always packed out because it's popular but we've always managed to get a table. Love you, Umi xoxo

Pros: Vegan options , Portion sizes, Speedy service

This restaurant should be called Yu-Umi Falafel

We tried this restaurant during ou visit of Dublin. A really good meal we had here ! Different types of falafel sandwiches, mezzes, salads, all home-cooked and perfectly seasoned. We took the Palestinian sandwich with a lentil soup that was excellent ! Also took the Baba ganoush which was delicious.

Note that you can seat in this restaurant (there is room for approximately 40-50 persons)(all the Umi Falafel don't have seated places)

decent but junky tasting

at first bite I was very impressed with the baba ganoush. the pitta was really nice that came with it! I also got the palestinian pitta/sandwich and it was ok but a bit salty. the falafel and pickles overwhelmed any other flavours in there which I was disappointed by as I prefer simple/fresh food that doesn’t taste too processed

Pros: plenty of vegan options, lovely pitta

Cons: a bit salty, falafel overpowers all other flavours in pitta

A Dublín Staple

A Dublin must have! There are a few locations across the city. All options are marked well for vegan options. They have some really good combos that are available during certain times.

Good quick cheap lunch

Reliable lunch chain with labeled vegan options. Ireland doesn’t have a ton of vegan options so we visited various locations on our trip.

Pros: Cheap, Yummy

So good

Highly recommend Umi! Reasonably priced, delicious food - would give 5 stars if they’d ditch the dairy and go completely vegan😄

Great middle eastern food

Had food there three times during my stay - it was just so good. I tried the Palestinian sandwich, the lentil salad and the fatoush with falafel, and everything was sooo delicious, well-balanced, fresh... Their lemonade is also a must-try. The food comes out super quick, staff is friendly and attentive. Would have had many other vegan choices, even vegan baklava.

The best vegan falafel sandwich

Easily one of the best falafel wraps/sandwiches I've ever had... everything was so fresh and flavoursome. The spiced chips were nice too.

delicious food

We had an Umi plate for two (10 FALAFEL BITES, A SALAD OF YOUR CHOICE, HUMMUS, 2 SPINACH ROLLS, 5 STUFFED VINE LEAVES served with hummus dip, tahini sauce, chilli sauce & bread) and it was extremely delicious. The place is a bit too crowded in terms of placement for me, but it is cozy and the service was good (although we waited a bit long for our order to be taken, even if others arriving after us were processed speedily).

Pros: Delicious food

Cons: A bit too crowded, Waited a bit long for our order to be taken

Awesome place

Brought a vegetarian friend with me who didn’t eat falafel before and she fell in love.
We totally loved it here, the portions were enormous and everything was super tasty. The hummus and falafel are to die for, the salads were fresh.
One „meal deal“ with falafel, salad, bread and drink cost us 11€ which is very fair.
If I‘m ever in Dublin again I‘m definitely coming back!

Pros: many vegan options, fair prices , fast service
