Delicious falafel and cool atmosphere - Edit
Dyadya Fadi is a very nice place. If you are in St. Petersburg, I really recommend to visit this "Home for Friends" - as Fadi (the founder of the cafe) call it.
The main thing is of course Falafel! it is different from all other places in the city. In my opinion it is the best)
You can also drink tea or coffee with vegan or vegetarian sweets and cakes.
The atmosphere is very relaxed, informal, you can easily find some new friends there, if you want to talk, or you are first time in the city. Or you can just enjoy your meal and have a rest. There are two rooms, where you can sit and a small balcony, where you can spend time in the summer.
I highly recommend this place for all vegans, vegetarians and all other people)
Pros: delicious falafel, cozy atmosphere, nice poeople work

Tasty - Edit
In my opinion, it's the tastiest falafel in Saint-P. Dyadya Fadi is situated in the city centre. Falafelmaker will feed you quickly and cheap. Bon appetit!
Pros: tasty, cheap, a nice place
Cons: hard to find

He still alive - Edit
Babia .... you are right that place hard to find even for Russian . for that this place is one of the top secret amazing place in SPB .
but I think if you just check google map will tell you ,where its ;).
anyway
Fadi by himself don't care to have lot of customers ... he just bult some crazy unformte place "he called home for friends "with lot of activities and things going on .
there is no cafe or restaurant called dyadya fadi " is something we like to spend time there meet cool people and creative ... eat the most testy Falafel cooked with love .
I can tell About Fadi with what writing before "Fadi is owner of place, very charming person.
You can have some falafel, coffee or tea, as i understood from time to time there some more stuff in menu) The food is good and coffee just outstanding)
Place is quiet, have their own atmosphere (which in my opinion is cozy) and you can take a rest. Wi-fi is good, Fadi speak russian and english.
The flat of Fadi is not easy to find - it's better to call him or ask some locals, many of them knows him.
"
**Locals : young people not in the street .
Dumskaya Ulitsa its the centre of the centre ... like everywhere nobody know about no body .
so a bout Fadi .!! he is legend .... he is very cool . crazy . funny , strange in the most kind way . he showed himself sometimes and despair sometimes .
work with many projects Spb . Oslo and Zurich .
that we know until now .
so I think its to Hard to Tell PROBABLY DEAD that so funny :)

probably dead - Edit
we spent 30 minutes to find it, but we could not, and nobody in the courtyard 5/22 ever heard of it or could figure out where flat 68 is. Most probably it doesn't exist.

It took forever to find
They only had 1 thing to serve and wasn't all that great
The experience isnt a hipe as many have said unless you enjoy being lost in the snow for an hour
The enternece code is wrong i just sat at the door waiting for it to open
Just not worth it
Pros: cheap
Cons: everything else

Must try once! - Edit
Tasty falafel, spiced green tea, coffee and date sweets. That's all they serve. And it's great! The place is very cozy (apparently a 1st floor apartment) and ridiculously cheap. When we visited, there were five newborn kittens to entertain us while waiting - bad news for allergic and hygiene freaks but great news for everybody else, that's how cute they are.
The place is indeed hard to find, we were lucky to have someone coming in with us. As an addition to previous instructions - press the buttons of the code simultaneously.
Pros: cheap, delicious, kittens
Cons: only one food option, hard to find

Delicious but hard to find - Edit
Really good homemade falafel (very moist if you like that kind of thing) and vegan sweets in a legitimately homely atmosphere. I won't ruin the surprise of the toilet but worth a trip on its own!
Hard to find: go under the arch at 5/22 into what looks like houses, then immediately turn right and go through the iron gate (code 0246). Then all the way to the end and buzz flat 68.

Delicious Falafel in cozy atmosphere - Edit
First we had some troubles to find the place, but we made it, finally. Fadi speaks English quite well and offered us really delicious Falafel wraps. We could choose between spicy and non-spicy. Really cheap, as well.
They provide the food in their own flat, but also have space for a larger group. We were around ten people. Cozy atmosphere.
Highly recommend. One of the few vegan places in Saint Petersburg.
Pros: awesome falafel, really cheap
Cons: a bit hard to find

friendly & hommy - Edit
Though the place does not have plenty of meals to offer, their falafel is delicious and pretty cheap, made with care, literary before your very eyes at the open kitchen. They also have table games. There you feel like you came to visit a friend or some cosy home party.
Pros: Inexpensive, Tasty, Home-style

Friendliest place that has the best falafel - Edit
Don't be discouraged by this place being in a flat! The owner is the friendliest guy ever and speaks very good English. This place has the best falafel I've ever tried in my life, and I had a lot. Also try the soup and home made candy. Really cheap as well.
Pros: tastiest falafel ever, friendly, cheap

Home-style place - Edit
Very nice, very small (four or five tables) cafe, a little hard to locate but very much worth it. The claim to making the city's best falafel is likely justified, the vegan sweets are extremely tasty, all food is cheap. The guy running the place is just the friendliest. No alcohol or smoking.
Pros: Home-like atmosphere, Excellent falafel
