Stunning FOOD with LOADS of Vegan Options

Great Cocktails…we chose the Basil & Ube based! Smoked Corn dip was superb (not pictured), Shiitake Mapo Tofu with Rice Crackers & Black Sesame Sorbet AMAZING…Cauliflower with Tahini Sauce also a STANDOUT!

Amazing food

Most of the evening menu is vegan. Some of the best food I've had in a while.

Wow! What a find

This place is amazing! The food was stunning. Incredibly tasty and beautifully and creatively presented. The dishes are mostly vegan, with a couple of vegetarian dishes (some can be made vegan) and one meat dish. This is quite good as you can bring meat-eating friends and convince them how good vegan food is. Dishes are designed as sharing plates (they’re not large so order one extra) and every one was fantastic. I've never tasted such amazing food. We were a party of four (two vegans, a vegetarian and a meat-eater) and it catered for all of us. Even the meat-eater among us couldn't believe how fantastic the vegetables tasted (even the charred cabbage!). It's the best vegan food we've ever had at a restaurant and we’ve gone to a lot... Everything is organic and locally-sourced and top quality. They make their own drinks to avoid plastic bottles, the mango drink tasted fantastic. Highly recommend the mapo tofu, crumbed eggplant and charred cabbage). The manager spoke to us several times to explain the dishes, and to make sure we were happy with everything, you could see his passion for the craft. Incredibly friendly. It was a terrific night out. Highly recommended!! (would have given it 5 stars but Happy Cow reserves this for vegan or vegetarian-only - fair enough)

Pros: Mostly vegan, Ethical and sustainable, Friendly

Cons: Not entirely vegan

Herberlicious

Firstly, we were met at the door by super friendly staff, and manager exhibited that too.
We had the carrots and tofu medium dishes which were wonderfully flavourful, followed by the broccoli which was nice but not wow.
Enjoyed some lovely wines too.
Be mindful that not all vege dishes are vegan, so check with the staff.

Pros: Delicious, Upbeat staff

Cons: Some vegetarian dishes can't be made vegan

Amazing!

We are vegan and my partner is coeliac. They looked after us really well. We took my parents in law for my dad-in-law’s birthday. My mum-in-law said it was one of the best meals she has ever had (they ate all vego & vegan) They brought out a special free desert for my dad-in-law. It included some avocado and he’s allergic to avo & so they brought out another!! Then we left a bag and they chased down the street after us! They could not have treated us high maintenance diners better!! Amazing food & experience
