Déception

Le patron qui travaillait seul avec son fils ce soir a été à peine souriant et agréable avec moi j'ai attendu plus de quarante minutes et j'étais seulpour manger et il n'y avait seulement qu'une autre table dans le restaurant. Trois femmes sont arrivées elles ont eu leur boisson en 4 minutes et on etait servie en 15 minute... si je suis restée si longtemps à attendrec'est parce que j'étais en live sur TikTok et je voulais voir jusqu'à quel point Aller cette blague de plus le monsieur me disait prends ton temps...( pardon c'est moi qui attend depuis 40 minute)
Les femmes ont eu le droit à des rires des éclats de joie il est d'être servi avant moi. Cela fait une semaine que je suis en egypte et je me fait livrer tous les soirs... ici dans ce restaurant j'ai payé trois fois le prix pour à peu près les mêmes quantités et honnêtement la nourriture servie était fade... sans goût... inutile alors oui ces cuisiner minute j'accepte d'attendre pour la nourriture mais pas 40 minutes pour prendre ma comande. De plus j'ai jamais eu mon ginger (qu'il a essayer de me facturer lol )par contre les 3 nana on etait re servi comme des reines...
Elle trouver la nourriture extraordinaire et Parler super fort comme de bonne français pour attirer mon attention ( des cougars) bref j'ai accepter de rester attendre aussi longtemps car le live tiktok etait épique on etait plus de 500 et tous le.monde halluciné. Bref endroit nul pour ma part je vous conseille que si vous avez des boobies

Pros: Le bébé chat, ..., ...

Cons: L'accueil et l'attente, Les plats sans goût , Le prix

Lovely veggie restaurant

The food was amazing and the people working there were lovely and very attentive. They understand vegan diet so ask which menu items are vegan. Fully recommend!

believe it is temporarily closed

n/a

Actually, to be sincerely honest in my humble opinion, without being sentimental and of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, and without hiding any thoughts in my mind, and without lies to the actual truth, with my clear open mind and clean heart, expressing whatever is embedded inside me for a long time which I didn't say because I was nervous. But today, by gathering all the courage and motivation, I just want to say that I actually feel and think that I have absolutely nothing to say. Thank you!

The only pure vegetarian restaurant in Luxor

Good food. Good people. 😃 I do not consume garlic and onions, and they were very accommodating to my request. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Pros: Authentic Egyptian vegetarian menu, Clean and comfy restaurant

Very good

Loved the food I had there, especially the green beans. There are a lot of vegan options. As many people were so excited about the cauliflower, I wanted to stress that it's deep fried and thus a little too greasy for me. Everything else was perfect. It's nice that you can have a look at the gallery while waiting for the food.

Pros: Green beans, Possibility to look at the gallery while waiting

Delicious food

Egyptian vegetarian food, made to order. I especially loved the “Eggplant Wanna’s way”, but every dish we had (bissara, moussaka, fried cauliflower and more) was delicious and filling. I believe all dishes could be adapted if you are vegan (although most are already vegan) Lovely, friendly English speaking staff and a very sweet cat who will snuggle herself down next to you but won’t be begging for food! Slightly awkward to find but only a short walk from where the ferry docks on the West Bank.

Pros: Delicious food cooked to order, Friendly, English speaking staff

Lovely space, fresh delicious Egyptian food.

The food was absolutely delicious, freshly cooked and beautiful. We had the Moussaka, Lentil soup, tomato-onion salad, fresh pita, and a unique dip made with cilantro, parsley and dried leaves. It was excellent. #Veganuary

Pros: Fresh cooked beautiful food. , Good service. , Nice atmosphere with resident cats.

Cons: A little pricey for area standards but worth it.

Best food of my travel

Wow, this little vegetarian restaurant serves AMAZING food. From the salads to the sides, the dips, the owner and staff, the cats and warmth.
In Egypt I was struggling to find a balanced vegetarian diet. When we found Wannas we came here every day I was in Luxor.
And it's not another restaurant that serves some vegetarian food also. No, they Only serve vegetarian delicious fresh dishes 😋😍

Unforgettable. Fresh, vibey eating experience.

Fresh, colourful, deliciously flavourful and delicately prepared dishes 🔥✨
Cool atmosphere, beautiful artwork 🌈.
Friendly, welcoming and attentive staff ⭐️ From the music to the beautiful Alabaster bowls the experience felt like perfection 🌍.

Supportive of our dietary requirements of no salt and what else we don’t have in our food. everything was prepared fresh to order from the salads to the sides to the lovely garlicky tahni 🙏🏽

Best Cafe I have been to 🍽️✨ and will definitely return soon

Amazing

We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The owner/chef makes you feel like he is your private chef and he takes great pride in what he produces. Awesome vegan food. We were very full for $12 total bill (before tip) for 2 people.

Delicious! Best vegan food in Egypt

This place was great. The menu looks fairly simple fare but it was the most flavorful and delicious food I've had in Egypt so far! In general I have found vegan dishes pretty plain and this restaurant was a pleasant exception. Warm welcome, comfy space, and plenty of options. Tomato soup was really great. Definitely check it out if you're in Luxor!

A must try!

We absolutely loved this restaurant on the West Bank! Was a great atmosphere and super friendly hosts. The food was melt in your mouth delicious! Next time I think we will order the whole menu. Only downside is that I cannot fit more in my stomach. 1000 stars! 90% of the menu is vegan and most of the rest can be made vegan.

Pros: Amazing food, Lovely staff, Local ingredients

Fresh and simply delicious

We discovered this place our first day in luxor and fell in love with sayed's food and his small kingdom. We came back everyday during our stay in luxor and each time the food was fresh, made with love and patience and delicious!
You definitely should don't miss it.

Very tasty food and great vibe.

I liked the food a lot, it was a big enough portion for the main dishes with some starters. Most dishes on the menu are vegan and some can be prepared vegan. We enjoyed some eggplant and cauliflower dishes, had nice flavour and spicyness. The ginger tea was also delightful.

Pros: Adorable staff and chill place, Refined cooking

I was so happy when I’ve discovered this place. The food is so delicious, and the people is so kind. They invite you to see their set gallery, very nice.
I highly recommend this place, I’m sure you’ll not regret it.

nice vegan food and art café

they were offering us food even though it was Ramadan, staff is friendly but doesn’t speak that much English. They made some dishes extra for us and everything was really tasty. They have food that’s seasonal, so the options depend on when you visit. We went there after an exhausting sightseeing trip at the west bank und recharged our energy!

Buena comida rodeada de arte

Buena gente, buena comida y rodeado de cuadros preciosos. No se puede pedir más. Y a buen precio. Repetiré.

*Actualizo: finalmente repetí. Llegué justo al finalizar la jornada de Ramadán y esta gente tan amable me invitó a cenar con ellos y pude disfrutar de una agradable velada.

Top!

Relaxing vege cafe in Luxor

Although the cafe was closed for Ramadan, the owner kindly offered me an amazing mint and lemon tea for free !! You’d never have this kind of kindness I was so grateful!!
