Great food

I had number 7, the cauliflower/tahini/falafel ! It tasted great.
Price was good for the quality.
I just found the place inside lacks a bit of coziness overall (sitting in front of a window) ...

Delicious options

Small place with well plated dishes for the salads.

#7 and #4 were great.

They say anything can be made vegan, and three are marked as being vegan already.

Tasty lattes too

Best falafel I’ve had in ages

Two of the four sandwiches were vegan but they said they could make the other two vegan if I wanted. Got the falafel and kimchi and it was really tasty. The falafel had such a good flavour and mix of spice in (or on) it. Limited seating but well worth a trip if you’re in Reykjavik.

Alright

((had the Seitan in pita, number 4))

I don't want to hate on these guys because they clearly put in a lot of effort and their attention to detail is much greater than most bistros. But the portions are pretty small, for that really pricey and hard to eat. it's not that easy to have "complex" bite with lots of ingredients which downgrades the eating experience quite a bit.

Chickpea base, lots of salads

Very nice and fresh food. Salads are quite big with sourdough bread as side. Mint water for free, also take-away options. I loved it!

Really good wrap

Had the home made seitan sandwich. Got one more to go after eating so it sure was a good one! And the staff was very friendly.

Great flavor and convenient takeout downtown

Loved everything, tried an eggplant special, the original falafel, and the homemade seitan. Have to skip or sub sauces, which is okay. But would love if they added a vegan tzatziki or tahini sauce. Going again before leaving town.

Pros: Great flavor and good size , Good value, Staff knows vegan and is clear on options.

Homemade food and awesome staff

There's falafel, beetroot falafel, seitan wrap and a few different salads. I went for the seitan wrap and I liked how filling and full of flavor it was. The staff was very accommodating and didn't mind leaving out some things and even suggested to replace them with broccoli (at no extra charge). Very nice!

Pros: Tasty and big portions , Very nice staff, Not expensive

A good option for breakfast in Reykjavik

I came here for breakfast during my trip to Iceland, I was told that everything on the menu can be made vegan. It was quite filling, and satisfying. The location is nice, right near the centre of Reykjavik. There weren't any customers when I went, so I had a nice relaxing breakfast here.

Tasty takeaway

Vegan friendly takeaway, perfect for getting a wrap and taking it somewhere scenic. The spicy falafel wrap with kimchi & slaw was amazing - fresh ingredients, excellent falafel & packed with flavor.

Delicious falafel

We had the falafel wrap and a hummus and veggies salad. It was all delicious and filling. There are places to sit down or we can take away and eat on the go. Prices were not too expensive.

Pros: Delicious food, Nice staff

Delicious falafel

Most delicious fresh food not far from the centre. Lots of fresh salad and falafel with different sauces, breads and grains. The menu isn’t labelled vegan but the staff know what is vegan or can be made vegan. Everything is made fresh.

A decent falafel

This place is small with a cafeteria feel, unfortunately the seats don't have backs and could better seating.

We got two falafels one classic and one spicy. They were both decent and filled you up pretty good, but they were a little dry. The staff were great and they did have tahini which was also well made and were accommodating and generous with it when I asked for extra. I felt they could use a chilli sauce as I love spicy food and there was no kick in it for me. Ironically the spicy falafel was probably less spicy than the regular one and a little sweet, so I preferred the classic falafel which was also less dry.

The kombucha was really good and as a DJ, I thought the music they were playing was some awesome alternative rock. I felt of all the veggie restaurants I went to in Iceland, this was my favorite and good value for the money.

Pros: good falafel, great taste in music, good service

Cons: Could use better seating with backs , Little dry could use a chilli sauce
