    That’s the spot! Harken back to my beloved Mahmouds falafel in NYC, Sababa was delicious. Tasty full set with a sweet baklava for dessert afterwards. I’ll be sure to head back soon

    Brilliant food! A MUST for Vegan & vegetarians both. Even more vibrant is the owner, who is so welcoming and polite. Discussions about food, travel, with a lot of laughter and of course, amazing Baklava to complete the visit. Owner is so sweet to not only give complimentary salad (because it was too good and a must try) but also guided us on rail routes and gave travel recommendations. 10/10.

    Incredibly talented and humble chef, the place opened under a year ago, go there while you have a chance !! Honestly some of the best Falafel I’ve had - including Europe. Owner works alone : makes his own hummus, falafels, etc.. Everything is fresh and you can taste the difference. Won’t be too long till he’s recognised as Osaka’s #1.

    I will give 5 stars to this cozy falafel place in Osaka. The food was very good, we went for the mix vegan plate and we were not disappointed. If you are in the area consider to stop by 😉

    Such an amazing find. Lovely service, fast fresh food. The home made hummus and falafel were incredible. I can’t state how much this was a life saver for two vegans. Would eat here 100 X times if I could! Such great value for money! Thank you!!

    Very delicious and tasty food. I can definitely recommend you to go there if you are around in that area. It is a small place but very cute and fresh selfmade food. Kebab and falafel were both amazing. Do try the baklava as well. Very friendly staff.

    I ordered the mixed plate to be able to try most of the offered specialties. Every single piece on the plate tasted awesome. The creamy hummus and additional sauces tasted great. The team was super friendly and spoke a multitude of languages.

    Authentic and delicious falafel in the heart of Osaka. Perfect lunch to have if you're a vegetarian or looking for something different to Japanese food. Really enjoyed talking to Moshe about his move from Israel to Japan over 20 years ago. His food has soul and authenticity and we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch.

    What a great spot for lunch! Ordered the falafel plate and it was reasonably priced and delicious (even comes with a free drink). The owner is extremely accommodating for dietary restrictions- I need to eat gluten free and he substituted the fries for pita bread. Only 6 seats in the restaurant, but adds to the charm of the place. Highly recommend!

    Great place, little small but if you can get a space the food is fantastic. Very good place for vegetarians. I recommend it for anyone looking for falafel!

    Yummy! This place is very accommodating. It's good for vegetarians and vegans. The guy speaks English. The kitchen is small so it's not super fast.

    This is a fantastic falafel shop and a great find in Osaka. Legit falafel and hummus, super-friendly & hard-working folks running the place. Don’t miss it when you’re in the Shinsaibashi / Dotonbori area.

    Great place for some fluffy pita, tasty falafel and other good stuff! I could eat this bread forever! Their veggies are fresh, the tea is great, couscous is bomb (and a lot) and their hummus and sauces are great as well. Super vegetarian friendly and good for international guests. Japanese or English are fine and the staff are really kind.

  • 5/5 from where i eat (. 1 year ago on Google
    This is my first time trying Israeli food, I tried their vegan menu Falafel Pita for ¥700 and Baklava for dessert. It was so delicious! Baklava will always be my favorite. They said the chicken is halal too, so muslim can try their kebab.

    Small quaint shop with limited seats located near to America Town. We had the falafel pita and hummus pita. The falafel is really good, soft in the inside and crunchy on the out. It doesn't have too much of the chickpea smell which is great.

    Great food. Nice ambience. Cozy place. Heaven for vegetarian. Best thing is owner speaks english

  • 5/5 Panda 5 months ago on Google
    One of my favorite places to get kebabs, falafel, and hummus. Absolutely delicious! The staff are super nice. Seating is very limited. There is indoor and outdoor seating. This place was run by 2 people when I came. I usually ubereats but decided to dine at the physical location today. My order actually got lost when ingredients were being replenished. Stuff like this can happen so if you notice you're waiting for a long time, you might want to ask. Overall, I love the food here. Its great for vegans and non vegans. I highly reccomend!

  • 5/5 Lydia M. 4 months ago on Google
    Amazing food! Please try the vegan pita kabab if you go- it's top notch. The guy is super friendly and has an awesome business. The falafels were super tasty too, but I definitely think the vegan kabab was better ❤️

  • 5/5 Abhishek G. 1 year ago on Google
    This was one of the best falafel places we found in Japan !! The chef is very friendly and prepared things fresh and delicious!! We tried all vegetarian dishes everything was yum !!

  • 5/5 Maria F. 1 year ago on Google
    Super lovely service from the owner (Moses)! Got myself the hummus pita and it was amazing, I was drooling the whole way while eating it (so tasty!!). I was so happy that they even have baklava on their menu, so I ordered their pistachio one, so yummy!! Definitely will be back when their Israel beers are back on stock~

    Great vegan and vegetarian food in Osaka! Delicious, cheap and convenient. The interior is a little small but good enough for a few people.

  • 5/5 vegan f. 1 year ago on Google
    The falafel lunch set was phenomenal and very well priced. I enjoyed four falafels with amazing hummus, warm pitta, sauce, two salads, pickled vegetavles, grilled zucchini plaster, side sauces, and a drink. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Sydney G. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this place, really good, authentic falafel with vegan and vegetarian options at a good price :) Thanks!!

  • 5/5 Niall G. 2 years ago on Google
    Great little place for kebab and falafel. The man who runs the place is friendly and helpful too. I had a baguette kebab and it was really good! My friend had the falafel. Recommended for sure.

    Authentic Mediterranean food. The gentleman who runs this restaurant is originally from Morocco and is a good chef. If you do not speak Japanese the owner speaks very good English.

👍👍 Go to the basement floor which has all kinds of food stalls and specialty stores. Go there an hour before closing and most of the packaged food items will be discounted like 30% or Y300 off. It’s great deal for budget travel. They also have very good yogurt drinks and other bakery items.

👍👍 An amazing dinning experience available in different locations throughout Japan, but we enjoyed ours most in Osaka. Quick and tasty, but take your time enjoying the savory cuts you get to cook to your own delight at your table. Very friendly and efficient staff. Some waiting likely during dinning...
