"This is an extremely popular place, and being one of the very few entirely vegan joints in Bulgaria, it's of course something to be grateful for. Especially since they have a professional chef coming up with artisanal recipes. However... I've been there 3 times in total, ordered different dishes every time, and the taste was never something to write home about... I really wanted to love it! But it just was fancy, but not entirely delicious. The prices are very, very high, but that is kind of standard for Sofia artisanal restaurants. All in all I'm happy a proper vegan restaurant exists in Bulgaria, I just feel like the focus should be a bit more on quality and taste, rather than, well, pretentiousness..."

"I really liked the place in the past.. however the service experience I had last time was awful.. I was looking to make a reservation for 16 people so I called the restaurant and was told that for that big type of reservation I should go to the restaurant every day between 13:00 and 18:00h to discuss the menu and to give an advance payment. This was what I was told by the girl who I spoke on the phone with. I couldn’t even recieved information if the reservation can be made inside. Nevermind I went to the restaurant on Sunday at 15:00h and the hostess was inceredibly not focused on our conversation she wasn’t even looking at me.. after that she decided that I need to speak with one of the waiters. Incredibly rude and arrogant behavior came up by one of them. He told me that there’s no way I was told to come in these “busy” hours (even if I didn’t see that many people and also 15:00h on Sunday.. really?? The busiest time of the day I believe.. and that he cannot pay attention to me right now.. I do not recommend this place just because of all the arrogance and rudeness I’ve recieved. Teach the staff how to behave pleace or easier- just change it.."

"Lots of vegan and vegetarian options including a huge range of hummus-based choices and salads. I had the Complete Hummus which also came with felafel, chickpeas and mushrooms, with the Turkish salad (tomato-based, thick like paste). It was nicely presented but the hummus and chickpeas were too bland for my taste."

"All-around one of the best dining experiences I have had while traveling. The place is cute and the staff is kind. It was my first time trying Bulgarian food and the shopska salad, tarator, and stew absolutely blew me away. I wish I lived in Sofia so I could eat here again."

"Had a great time in this place. It was a recommendation from a local free tour guide of Sofia Free Tours, but the place was amazing. Most photos seem to be from the old place. The person who served us said they took the seats a few months ago, so you can expect a super cozy and welcoming environment. The host gave us great suggestions, which I would recommend to you to ask them only for their recruits for your general preferences:"

"I don’t know why I waited so long to come here… it’s such an amazing,cozy spot! My colleagues and I came here for a bit of coworking during the week they were super open to it and the top floor is perfect for a group of people. It’s calm and relaxed during the weekday, the music is on point, the brunch and daytime food menu is diverse and the coffee is excellent Golden gem in Sofia’s bar scene the owners and people are friendly and smiling, PLUS they allow dogs. What more could you ask for?"
