Amazing vegan food restaurant

I have visited this place together with my fiancee during this weekend for the first time. And what we have found there was a really cozy, green looking and originally decorated enviroment. And what was more - behind the counter and also in the kitchen there was working an incredibly kind personality - the chef of this fine restaurant. A man with a big heart and hands of an food artist! We enjoyed one of the best vegan/gluten free meals we have ever had and in addition to that we were welcomed with a few slices of a banana bread which totally blew our minds!! The taste was beyond amazing! We really recommend this place for everyone to try out!

Best vegan place in The Netherlands!

I can’t get over this place. I live 5 minutes from this place in Rotterdam and I’m here almost every day. The best vegan food I ever had. I recommend the “Amazing Burger”😄

btw. You will love the owner of the place. Full of funny jokes😄

Pros: Food, Hospitality , Piano

Delicious food and the best coffee in the city

This place serves has an amazing all vegan and gluten-free menu. I first visited them for their vegan cakes, but when I started trying their pancakes and different lunch options - I just kept getting blown away. Everything they make is simply delicious and the fact that they hand make everything (even the sauces of their burgers) is both admirable and delicious. You can really taste the love that is put into making everything on the menu. This is the only all vegan place I know that has never disappointed me. Oh and the coffee they serve is amazing. It’s an Italian brand that really separates itself from other coffee most restaurants serve.

Look who’s here: Katja (sorry 😉)
I remember that we were following each other even before we met, even before I had the store.
The first time you where in our store was for the coffee and the cakes (banana bread to start with). Somewhere in June 2019..🤔 Saw you taking pictures of our coffee and cake on a wooden plate made by Texturit.
You came back later for more cakes. Didn’t surprise us :):).
And the first time you ate in our store...was about 2 months later, somewhere in August 2019, sitting at the big table, at the head of the table just at the entry. I was in the kitchen. Saw you standing up. Taking a pic of the pancakes you ordered. The same! pancake I just saw in the first pic you posted.
Well...that’s a dèja vu, isn’t it ;)
The more the time came to the orang, the more often you come by. Happy Food and Health is not complete without our Katja (sorry again 🤪) anymore 🌱

It's the place that you are curious to come back to! Delicious food and very pleasant and friendly service. A lot of respect to these guys because everything is gluten- and sugar free.

(H) eerlijke vegan maaltijd met een lach

We hadden vegan gado gado en vegan kebab met rijst besteld bij dit restaurant met veel vegan opties. De eigenaar, Erol, was heel behulpzaam bij het maken van keuzes van de vele aantrekkelijke gerechten en bood zelfs aan de maaltijd te komen brengen. De maaltijd werd gebracht met een lach. We waren aangenaam verrast, beide maaltijden waren heerlijk. Als verrassing zat er een ongelofelijk lekker toetje bij. Wat een verwennerij!

Favoriete restaurant in Rotterdam!

Regelmatig haal ik een maaltijd in mijn lunchpauze of ga ik hier eten met mijn man, familie, collega's, vrienden..... Iedereen, inclusief ikzelf, komt hier positief vandaan!

De köfte is favoriet en afsluiten met taart of bananenbrood. Kortom, het is altijd smaakvol, gezellig maar bovenal érg lekker!

Een warm welkom en altijd een feest om hier te eten of af te halen😄

Tot snel weer!

Pros: Excellent food, Friendly staff, Nice vibe

ErolCetinkaya

Positief bij ons vandaan,.....zeg je.
Laat me mijn versie vertellen aub:
Ik kan me al die keren niet herinneren dat je ook maar één keer binnen bent gekomen zonder een glimlach. Jij of met wie je ook binnen kwam.
Kan de allereerste keer nog goed herinneren toen jij en je collega bij ons telefonisch een bestelling plaatsten. 2 smoothies. 2 coconut nice cream bowls, tijdens de lunch pauze van jullie werk. Sindsdien...heb je samen met je man en vele collega’s en vrienden ons altijd gesteund, ons altijd laten lachen. De meest positieve van het verhaal zijn jullie.

Nou genoeg geslijmd. Wanneer komen jullie weer langs ??? 🤪

vegan AND free of sugar/gluten!

Love this heathy happy place and the very enthusiastic and proud owners! They are very interested in the opinion of the customers.
Falafel was finger licking good. And the rest too! The owner let us taste his nutbread which was superior, but not for sale as it is too costly to produce. Nutfree products also available.

Pros: sugarfree, glutenfree, happy place

Cons: not next door ;)

ErolCetinkaya

12 Aug 2020

Well, first of all, we call them ‘köfte’. And our falafel isn’t on the card yet;)
Second: you had me thinking and thinking. In the last few months I told about our nutbread to 2 persons/couples. So who could it be....?
Then I saw your other reviews. All from Poland. Then I knew it. And extra easy cause I have your picture I shot in front of our Neon Lights.

And let’s make a 3rd remark:
The biggest reason I love this work and why I kept going even in the hard times...that’s because of all the appreciated guests.

I hope you will visit Rotterdam again and you will stop by for a hello.
Take care...#staysafe

Wow! It just keeps getting better!

I've eaten here 3 or 4 times and every time I go, there is some new, innovative yet healthful item to the menu. The menu really has a great blend of savory and sweet items, as well as different styles of cuisine.

I can highly recommend the burgers, pancakes and lasagna. If you order the burger, make sure to get extra napkins! Next time I go, I'm going to try one of the Turkish dishes.

The decor is funky and cool, but the place is still very "gezellig." This restaurant isn't in the touristic center, which gives visitors an opportunity to get to know "real" Rotterdam. The owner is also very friendly. I hadn't been there in months, but as soon as I walked in he recognized and welcomed me. That was really nice.

Pros: Varied menu , Relaxed vibe, Delicious food

ErolCetinkaya

12 Aug 2020

I also recall that your friend was helping you with the word ‘gezellig’ and you did it great :).
You also surprised me how fast you learn Dutch. So be aware for the next time: we will talk more Dutch then English then. And I promise to talk slow :):)
Thanks for the visit.

The best of the best!

What a great concept!
I love seeing how passionate the owner is. He has a lot of passion for what he does and really wants you as a customer to be happy from start to finish. He knows exactly what he is talking about and makes his dishes with the best love. To be 100% honest, I have never eaten gluten-free and vegan food as good as this. The menu is very varied and has dishes for everyone. It's so nice to be able to eat without having to think for a second about what you're eating and just enjoy the delicious food on your plate🤤. Together with the owner, I even got to plan a surprise for my boyfriend's birthday, what a success! He even sang for my boyfriend! This restaurant is definitely my go to. Oh yeah! And don't forget to taste the banana bread, it is crazy delicious.

Pros: Great food, Varied, Awesome vibe

Cons: Non, Non, Non

Home made goodness served by passionate owner

After check-in we looked around for a vegan pre-dinner snack. Overwhelmed by kindness of the staff we chose to share the nacho platter and vegan kebabs. It was really delicious! Original middle eastern style dishes, well balanced and good portioned. We will come back for sure

Best vegan restaurant and pâtisseries in Rotterdam

On our trip in Rotterdam, we were really surprise by this restaurant ! The vegan/ gluten free salry meals were Amazing !( best vegan nachos that I ever ate !) And cake were soooo incredible especially the snikers bar and the chunky monkey cake ( how really test like the famous ICE cream but gluten free and oil free ! How could it be possible ?! 😱😍)
The carrot cake was good but may a fresh squeez of lemon on the frost will give a little bit " plus" ) . Homemade drinks are highly recommand ! ( Perfectly balance in sugar and Flavour ). And the staff was sooo nice and welcome !

I really really highly recommand it ! On of my best favourit restaurant in Europe !

NB : the restaurant décoration is so pretty with beautiful green plant in.

Thank to Happy food and healthy staff for this extraordinary tasty moment 🙏🏻❤️ see you again and kiss from France 😘🇫🇷.

Pros: Extrême tasty and quality food, Really kind staff/quality welcome, The place cocooning décoration

Cons: The Price is a little bit high but we are a lot.
