Amazing customer service and lovely food. My only issue is that the 2 times I've been I've felt like it's too salty. But apart from that it is delicious. I also got gluten free vegan cake to take away and it was amazing! I took a star off from atmosphere because inside the music was quite loud and outside it's also very loud due to traffic, so it wasn't as easy to chat.

Didn't realise it was plant based, but we ordered chicken and lamb souvlaki with a handful of chips and chicken caesar salad sandwich. Both were tasty but found the chicken caesar sandwich quite dry. Cheers

I’ll start this review by saying I’m not vegan, but geez the meal I had here was so, so good. The lamb souvlaki was delicious - I dunno what to say, it tasted so much like lamb, and feta was crumbly and wonderful as well. Vegan or not, this is a great restaurant. I’m terrible at reviews, but good at eating so 🤷♂️

Used to love this place before the name/menu change. Just went in this evening and discovered the souvlaki wraps are no longer on the dine in menu (takeaway only). I was pointed towards the mini pita as a similar option. Be warned they aren’t kidding when they say “mini” - between the two of them they are about 1/2 to 2/3 the size of the old wrap for the same price ($20 including sauce) and definitely not good value for money.

It was worth a try to see how vegan food has progressed. If you are vegan then this place will be heaven for you. I tried the salt and pepper "calamari". Very salty but better with the provided lemon. The "chicken" was wheat based and whilst filling didn't have that taste wow factor. In my mind I felt like I was partaking in a very successful science experiment. It's still not there yet to make me want to switch over from real meat but incredible how close it's getting. This is the future and I felt healthier for the experience overall. Super friendly staff and service. If you're not vegan I do recommend to give it a try.
