One of the most vegan friendly restaurants in Almaty

A rare vegan friendly middle eastern restaurant. Many vegan options, including tofu-shakshuka, assorted hummus with different toppings (mushrooms, fava beans, root vegetables and more), salads and more. Vegan dishes are clearly marked in the menu. Very friendly and attentive staff. A rare gem in a very non-vegan-friendly region.

Pros: Hummus, Service, Location

Amazing!! 10/10

This place was so good! So many vegan options clearly marked and delicious food. Contrary to other reviews, I actually thought the portion sizes were pretty big and at a good price. Very happy with this experience

Really good but small portions

Harissa is a good restaurant. I can recommend the hummus and the chakchouka. But the portions are too small… You need a starter, a dessert or two mains to be full.
Also, if you come between 6pm and 9:30pm, you need to have a reservation!! The restaurant is always full.

Pros: Pita bread and hummus , Tasty

Cons: Small portions, You need to have a reservation

Great place in Almaty

They do have an English menu now! Almost everything is marked but there are a few additional vegan dishes that were forgotten to be marked. Very yummy.

Pros: Great location
