We believe that 100% plant-based should equal 100% flavour and fun, which is why we set about serving up Sydney's most flavourful plant-based bites, inspired by European signatures.

We're proud to sit alongside some of Newtown's best vegan and vegetarian restaurants, changing the flavour game for Sydney's plant-based restaurant scene. Our signature souvlaki dishes feature proteins made from wheat, soy, and mushroom marinated for 60-hours, delivering that irresistible "meaty" flavour you've been craving. 100% Yia Yia approved!

This is not your typical plant-based fare. Our menu is packed with mouth-watering flavour. Expect satiating sauces, robust herbal notes and bold accents all beautifully presented by our incredible team in our cosy and comfortable venue, with a dash of pink neon for good measure!

    Amazing experience we had, service was exceptional and knowledgeable. We had the calamari, southern fried tenders and beef wellington - some of the best vegan food I’ve had and will be returning to try more!!

    Heard about this vegan outlet through socials and was so glad to have made a booking there. The service was outstanding and the food was delicious. The salt and pepper squid was the highlight. Pity we didn't have room for the cheesecake. Will have to come back for that next time!

    The actual food and cocktails were really good. Unfortunately the service was really lacking. We were there for several hours and it was because the service was slow. We had the 3 course menu and that included one starter to share between three people and weren’t given seperate plates and were expected to eat off the same plate. Which is odd. Cocktail took a long time to arrive and there was a huge gap between the starter and main course. The Sharing menu is min two people and it possibly works well for two but after what was actually provided, I don’t see how this is value for money over ordering each item on this menu separately if you are a three instead of a two
