I've been dining at this vegan restaurant since it opened in 2023, and it has become my go-to spot for vegan dishes. No matter where I travel, this place sets the standard for vegan cuisine. They offer a wide range of sweet and savory options, and the team frequently updates the menu with special dishes, themed cuisine weeks (like Ukrainian or Italian), and holiday menus for occasions such as Halloween. You'll always find something new and exciting to try. They also provide delivery and takeaway services.
I've sampled both the regular and special dishes, but my top choice is the falafel (whether in the Falafel plate, wrap, or Khasan falafel variation). They serve the best falafel I've ever tastedโpossibly the best in all of Georgia and maybe even the world! The falafel is made with a precise recipe, and the sauce is simply amazing, creating a perfect combination. The portions are quite generous, often enough for two people.
For heartier options, I recommend the Breakfast plate, Red Pesto Pasta alla Vodka (just ask them to skip the vodka if you prefer), authentic Borsch, and the McLoving Burger, which is a recent addition for burger enthusiasts.
If you're in the mood for lighter fare, try the Syrnyky and Sakartvelo salad. They use incredibly fresh vegetables for the salad, making it the best version I've ever had.
For dessert, I suggest the Caramel Praline souffle, the "Honey" cake (it's vegan, so no actual honey!), Tiramisu (Tres leches), and the Anthill (rare, but definitely worth it if available). The cookies at the bar are also delicious and satisfying. Donut lovers will appreciate the wide variety, all beautifully decorated and tasty. Keep an eye out for the Kyiv cake; if you see it, grab it without hesitationโit's made with delightful crispy meringue and is usually made to order.
If you're celebrating something, you can order a cake with various fillings, sizes, and designs. The cakes are truly artistic, and you can see some examples on their Instagram. I've ordered cakes for celebrations several times, and they've always been incredibly delicious. Just remember to place your order in advance.
For drinks, I recommend their coffee; it's excellent. My favorite is the Banana bread latte, which is available in both hot and cold versions. They also offer loose-leaf black and green teas, along with herbal options like mint and rose petalsโavailability may vary, so itโs good to check. They make their own lemonades and also sell local bottled varieties. You can also find beer and both alcoholic and non-alcoholic kombucha.
Additionally, the team is actively involved in charity work, helping local animals by feeding, vaccinating, and rehoming them, all funded from their own pockets. If you adopt an animal from them, youโll receive a lifetime discount.
If you're looking for great food while supporting a small local business, this place is the perfect choice. โค๏ธ
