Substantive and Tasty - Edit
Great food made with chickpeas and mushrooms. Firm consistency and very tasty. The owner was very kind and said they will be expanding to Johannesburg in the next couple of months. The food was not salty as a previous reviewer had said. Maybe they changed their recipe?

Tasty but very salty - Edit
Had the steak and the kebabs for dinner. The food was pretty good but salty. The texture of the fake meat was decent. They also comped us an order of samosas while we were waiting for our food. We had only been waiting for 5-10 minutes at that point, so it was a pleasant surprise. Fake meat is their thing and it’s all they have on the menu. If you’re not a fan then there’s nothing much here for you.

Great little restaurant - diamond in the rough - Edit
Romeo and Vera have their own butcher shop also and sell these products locally. The food was delicious and I went back 3 days the week I was in Cape Town. I tried the ‘steak’ burger, the drumsticks, the pizza and the chef’s ‘lamb’ specialty. They were all yummy and good portions. Presentation was nice tooThe staff was very friendly.

You NEED to eat here ! - Edit
Initially when we came we were a bit unsure what to expect. But we were absolutely amazed by the amazing food. What made it even better is that the vegan “meat” is HOMEMADE by the owners. They have a brand of vegan “meats” which they are selling. We had a wonderful conversation with one of the owners and he told us their story.

Pros: Amazing food , 100% Home made , Kind owners

Amazing mock-meat - Edit
I had a piece of mock-meat that had amazing texture (made from mushroom and chickpeas) as well as a delicious smoky sauce. Honestly one of the best things I’ve ever had. I’ve only visited once so far but I can’t wait to return!

Yummy vegan wings - Edit
Small restaurant with a small but interesting menu of mock meats. I particularly enjoyed the faux chicken wings which were spicy and flavourful. I got a mock fish for my main which could have been a bit fishier with some nori. A few more vegetables on the mains would have been good. But overall a great find with friendly staff.
Read morePros: Mock meat, Tasty food, Friendly staff
Cons: Limited options, Not enough vegetables

Lovely food! - Edit
Really enjoyed our lunch here, as mentioned it is slightly limited on a weekday but tasty options are available nonetheless. The vegan meat alternatives they make were great. We absolutely loved the creamed spinach that came on the side! 🥬
