    What an amazing experience! We came here on the hottest day of the year so we sat outside in the shade underneath a pear tree. There are also apple trees, a fig tree and loads of other plants. We were a little bit early for our reservation but this was no problem at all, we could already sit down with some water and wine. They do an all vegan course menu which changes regularly. The food was absolutely amazing. So tasty, great portions, nothing to complain about. With bad weather guests sit inside the train. It was my friends birthday and she received a small gift which was very nice thank you so much for that. One point of feedback is that the paint of the tables is in a very bad state and at the end of the night my arms were covered in pieces of blue paint. But a part from that we had a wonderful evening. Thank you!

    (Translated by Google) Ever born in The Emerald Belt. Now in a very attractive group of culinary vegetarian train journeys through the land of Tempo targetoe (see fixed menu!). Gave me great home feeling again. You must have tasted this kitchen once in your life; better taste once a year; or actually 1x a month. Timely reservation is just a must. Ever born in the Emerald Belt (Indonesia). Now made, with a very attractive company, a culinary-vegetarian journey by train through the country or Tempo Doeloe, (see fixed menu). It gave me such a strong at home feeling. You must have tasted this kitchen 1x in your life, better 1x in the year, even better 1x month. Reservation is a must. (Original) Ooit geboren in De gordel van smaragd. Nu in zeer aantrekkelijk gezelschap culinaire vegetarische treinreis door land van Tempo doeloe (zie vaste menu!). Gaf mij weer geweldig thuisgevoel. Deze keuken moet je 1x in je leven hebben geproefd; beter nog 1x per jaar proeven; of eigenlijk 1x per maand. Tijdig reserveren is gewoon een must. Ever born in the Emerald Belt (Indonesia).

    Nice vegan food in a really cool repurposed trainwagon from the 80’s. The vibe is really nice, the concept is cool and the staff is quite friendly! We had the movie/tv themed set menu which was a pretty fun idea - the experience and the ambience is really the selling point here!

    Curry was TOO spicy (I know they normally are spicy, but this one I couldn't finish it). The food was good but nothing special, as much as the reviews at Happy Cow. Friendly staff. The big deal was that the restaurant itself is running inside a wagon, so different and cool. Unfortunately too far away from the city center.

    Unique experience! A non-standard location, with friendly attention and delicious vegan food. We really enjoyed dinning in Gare du Nord with my partner, and will certainly come back!

    The place was closed even when our reservation was confirmed. Wasted trip across the city, no info about any closure on the website either. Not recommended

    One of the absolutely best vegan restaurants ever in a charming setting: a train wagon. It is tucked away in surroundings which do not at all scream high-end food, so don't let that fool you when trying to find it. It is expensive, yes, but the food is very good and it's uncompromisingly vegan, which we appreciate a lot. The menu is fixed but changes on a regular basis. We've been there 3 times now so you start to compare the food from one time to another and this time the starter was the best, absolutely delicious. The service is friendly and flawless

    (Translated by Google) Waiting for the food took a long time and people who came later were helped earlier. The service didn't seem to care much. There was also little choice on the menu and orders were forgotten. (Original) Wachten op het eten duurde heel lang en mensen die later kwamen werden eerder geholpen. De bediening leek er niet echt veel om te geven. Ook was er weinig keuze op het menu en bestellingen werden vergeten.

    Unique establishment a short walk east of Rotterdam Central. An old train car anchors the restaurant, houses the kitchen and provides indoor seating. Outdoor seating is also available in a pleasant garden setting. The service and food is absolutely outstanding!

    Delicious food, and very kind service. Dinner is prix fixe, which we didn't know, and most folks in our party being students might have meant we had to leave. He accommodated us well. Risotto was delicate, sided with well spiced cous cous wrapped in thin, roasted eggplant. This was food meant to win over by simplicity and heart, and it succeeded. Salad of fennel shavings, olive, and orange was a total delight.

    Lovely staff, delicious food, and a peaceful garden to sit in (if it’s nice out)! Fully vegan menu with vegan bio wine. Everything was flavorful and filling! Definitely recommend

  • 5/5 Pankti T. 3 years ago on Google
    It is such a cute little restaurant. Love the concept of it. The small abandon train coach converted into a restaurant that is sustainable. We had a 3 course meal and absolutely loved it. Def recommend if you are a vegan.

  • 5/5 Iris B. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing place! Love the old train concept. The vegetarian food is delicious, and the plates were well made up. We had a very friendly waiter too. My mother had an amazing birthday! Also, it is located in the North of Rotterdam. It feels like a cute little oasis in this busy city. Just a short walk away from central station.

    Vegan restaurant which believes in sustainability. I really liked the concept. However, poor execution. We went there for office event. We were 21 people. The host ran out of food. Honestly, there was not enough food. Almost all of us left with empty stomach. Later host said that he cooked only this much to avoid waste. Hope you understand. Apart from that host was very friendly and.nice guy. Menu is fixed in advance so you don't have option to select.

  • 5/5 Jovita R. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved a concept of ‘zero waste’! Therefore, one should always make a reservation! I am not vegan but I was pleasantly surprised of creative and very delicious vegan alternatives for meat/fish. Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Michella Anye van H. 1 year ago on Google
    Superb place for an unusual dining experience. Good vegan food, lovely staff and a set price for all dining courses. I believe we had 4 courses for 34 p.p

  • 5/5 Alto S. 1 year ago on Google
    One of my top restaurants in Rotterdam and I have tried a lot of places! Amazing staff and a really nice romantic atmosphere. You sit in a cute train with lights and its very cosy and personal. The food is also amazing, they always change their dishes and I like to keep it a surprise for myself, I have never been disappointed and I love how they make me try new things I would normally never try. All vegan and a no-waste policy! The staff is always very friendly with explaining the dishes and they have a nice wine selection. Make sure too make a reservation because it can be busy and it is a small restaurant so not too much space for random walk ins.

  • 5/5 Ramya M. 1 year ago on Google
    Love the sustainable concept - this restaurant is zero waste and vegan with a fixed menu. We went when they had Mexico inspired dishes, and from start to finish, it was excellent. They were better than a "standard" restaurant in terms of dishes, presentation and concepts which made it feel a little fancy. At the end of the meal we were quite full, so I think they're better than "high-end" restaurants in this aspect! Staff is very friendly and explained the dishes well. They work in shifts (presumably to control the number of food to be prepared), so it is very calm and not crowded. Interiors are cosy and quite spacious for a train compartment! The menu changes every two weeks and it's a popular place. So if you see a menu you really like, be sure to make reservations quickly.

  • 5/5 Anton A. 11 months ago on Google
    Such a cool place! The food is good and the atmosphere is fantastic! A must for a train lover.

  • 5/5 Margaret L. 5 months ago on Google
    The dining experience is both fun and elegant, with beautifully plated dishes served in a converted East German train car. The 4-course vegan menu changes every couple of weeks. I particularly enjoyed the starter of chestnut and chickpea soup. Reasonably priced for the quality of food and service.

  • 5/5 Tom Jones (. 9 months ago on Google
    loved the movie-themed concept they had for each of the 4 courses at Gare du Nord. food was creatively delicious, service was amazing and the summer garden setting felt like you teleported out of the city. bravo, will make sure to tell all my friends

  • 5/5 roxanaa 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) This was a very nice place to eat. To start with, the dishes were very tasty, and you could see from the end results that the chef really did his best, because the dishes were not only a pleasure for the palate, but also visually you could enjoy the dishes. Furthermore, the staff was very friendly and of course also good at their profession. The entourage was also great, it really gave you the feeling that you were in a natural environment, which of course goes very well with the subject of veganism. The atmosphere was also pleasant, which is always nice. I thought this was a really interesting restaurant, and I would definitely put it in my top 5 vegan restaurants list. But what you really shouldn't think is that you can only go to this restaurant if you are vegan, no certainly not. Based on taste I am sure everyone can have a good time here. So I'll say give it a try (Original) Dit was een hele fijne plek om te eten. Om te beginnen waren de gerechten erg smakelijk, en je kon aan de eindresultaten zien dat de kok wel echt zijn best deed, want de gerechten waren niet alleen een plezier voor het gehemelte, maar ook visueel gezien kon je van de gerechten genieten. Verder was het personeel erg vriendelijk en natuurlijk ook goed in hun vak. De entourage was ook top, die gaf je echt het gevoel dat je je in een natuurlijke omgeving bevond, wat uiteraard erg goed meegaat met het onderwerp veganisme. De sfeer was ook gezellig wat altijd fijn is. Ik vond dit een heel interessant restaurant, en ik zou het zeker in mijn top 5 vegan restauranten lijst neerzetten. Maar wat je echt niet moet denken is dat je alleen naar dit restaurant kunt gaan als je vegan bent, nee zeker niet. Gebaseerd op smaak weet ik zeker dat iedereen hier een goede tijd kan hebben. Dus give it a try zal ik zeggen

    (Translated by Google) Fantastic garden and train, hidden in the middle of the city. There is no choice in terms of food, there is one (all vegan) menu but this was also very tasty. The service is as you would expect in a city garden with a train carriage, friendly and relaxed. (Original) Fantastische tuin en trein, verborgen midden in de stad. Qua eten is er geen keus, er is één (alles veganistisch) menu maar dit was ook erg lekker. De bediening is zoals je mag verwachten in een stadstuin met een treinwagon, vriendelijk en relax.
