Great food! - Edit
We visited Koocha for Sunday lunch. It's a small place with a welcoming atmosphere, excellent service and delicious food.
Read moreI had the kofta tabrizi with pitta and fries. It was absolutely delicious. The people I was with had a wide selection of the mezze (too many things to mention). EVERYBODY enjoyed EVERYTHING.
I look forward to going back sometime when I visit Bristol.
Pros: Great food., Pleasant atmosphere., Friendly service.
Cons: Small venue (so a tiny bit cramped).

Amazing Food - Edit
My boyfriend and I tried about half the dishes on the menu and we loved every single one of them. The dishes all worked really well together, everything was really well seasoned and presented. The service was also very friendly. Definitely recommend a visit if you’re in Bristol.

Very expensive and not for my palette - Edit
I want to like this place but its crazy expensive and I don't like anything there except the rice ball things which are amazing but you get 2 for 3.75!!!! Maybe I don't like Persian food or maybe its just not a good for place for food.
Read morePros: I like the vibe
Cons: Very expensive, Tiny portions, Horrible overwhelming and greasy

Amazing! - Edit
First of all, really lovely staff. They were full but were taking phone numbers to call when they had spaces, which was perfect as otherwise we wouldn't have got their amazing food. The donor kebab pitta is insane, the garlic chips gorgeous, and the mezze is to die for. Topped off with fab cocktails (they have a 2 for £10 menu). Very reasonable prices! Can't recommend enough - perfect meal out.

Lovely vibrant and colourful food - Edit
The staff was great and their recommendation on portion sizes for the mezze was spot on. The food itself was vibrant, flavoursome and colourful. I would definitely come here again to try some of their mains.

Delicious! - Edit
Amazing food, friendly service, and their dirty kebabi fries are the best hangover cure! The eggless kookoo is another delicious favourite.

New favourite! - Edit
We absolutely adore this new place - and so must everyone else as it’s ususlly packed! Good idea to book on a busy evening eg weekends although you can usually get a seat outside if you’re willing to wait.
Read moreAbsolutely fantastic selection of mezze dishes at 4 for £12 along with kebabs at about £6 and fries, rice dishes and soup. Everything is so tasty and very beautifully presented. They have a great selection of gin cocktails for 2 for £10 and some very tasty mocktails. This is a must visit!

Top marks! - Edit
What a wonderful addition to an already very vegan friendly neighbourhood (and city).
Read moreThe food was fantastic and very varied. For a group of 4 we had 8 mezze and some flatbread - all very tasty and ample portion for the table. This makes it pretty kind on the wallet. The ice cream for dessert was lovely on a hot day and the staff are really friendly and helpful.
A wonderful place which seems to be getting derservedly popular on the Bristol scene.

Wonderful food and great atmosphere - Edit
Arrived on a Friday evening around 7:30 and luckily got a table, they were busy and don’t really take bookings for smaller groups.
Read moreThe place was buzzing, staff were friendly and attentive even though they were clearly very rushed. The two guys behind the bar making drinks were great entertainment.
The food is all small dishes so we ordered a large selection of these. The food was exquisite, lots of really interesting tastes and textures.
Finished with some superb saffron ice-cream.
Thoroughly recommend
Pros: All vegan, Friendly staff, Delicious food

100% Vegan Mezze! - Edit
So glad I found this place. Our server (Emma) was extremely friendly, warm, welcoming, and helpful.
Read moreThe restaurant is decorated nicely. We really liked the table wear.
They have an outside area which could
Be really nice if you like sitting outside with cocktails and Mezze with friends, your partner, or even by yourself ( more Mezze for you).
My Partner and I had;
Falafels. These were pretty decent, not as good as some of the falafel shops I have been to, but as this isn’t their speciality they were done well. The falafel were moist and crispy on the outside. They were round (suspiciously, perfectly round) rather than the traditional flatter disk shape. The had a good flavour though.
Rissoles. These were exceptional, they are like a disc shaped potato croquet, but the rice crumb instead of bread was awesome. They were fluffy, and moist on the inside and still perfectly crispy on the outside. Not greasy at all
Aubergine Dip. This was unusual but delicious. The closest thing I can describe the flavour as is a spinach dish from an Indian restaurant. This was because of the turmeric and other spices in the dip. (This Dip is nothing like Baba Ganoush like I thought it was going to be. Highly recommend though. *This has turmeric in it so be aware not to get it on your white T-shirt like I did :( as it will stain it.
Chickpea Hummus. Standard dish. But can easily be done so wrong. This was really good, smooth and flavoured well. If you like good hummus, the. You will like this.
Salad Shirazi. This was insanely good, so fresh and paired well with everything we had, I mean everything. The dish was vibrant and had a delicious tang which helped balance the salt, and fried food ( I recommend this, I will definitely be ordering every time)
Fattoush Salad. This was okay, not how I am used the dish being. I wasn’t a very big fan of their version. In terms of freshness, and quality of ingredients it was spot on, but for me I prefer toasted Pitta and salad leaves in my Fattoush, rather than fried croutons.
Traditional Fries. Standard fries, but like the hummus can be done wrong easily. These were delicious they were crispy on the outside, fluffy inside, seasoning was good. Not greasy at all.
Zattar Flat Bread. This was a nice change to Pitta bread for us, it paired really well with the Mezze dishes. Small portion for bread though. Would recommend mostly because of how much I love Zattar!
Easter Breeze (mocktail).
This was pretty good. They have a large selection of vegan cocktails but my partner and I do not drink alcohol. The drink was made well, and was presented very nicely. The tase was good. Would like to taste other mocktails when we next visit Bristol.
Overall I would definitely recommend this place to anyone in Bristol you likes Mezze.
Pros: Fully Vegan, Friendly Staff, Very good food
Cons: Bit pricey

Tasty food and friendly service - Edit
I like Iranian food and none of the mezze dishes disappointed and a few were really special. Reasonably priced too.
