    I ate there several times and was always satisfied. It's fresh, tasty and healthy. The portions are not too big but enough for one person.

    Great vegan food in Paje for a very affordable price. Staff is very friendly. A must when spending time in Zanzibar. The mixed fruit juices are delicious!

    What an absolutely gorgeous place. You have to eat here! What a gem, truly combines sensational flavours and ingredients bringing to life. Pesto and Mango rice is to die for, would strongly recommend ordering that: Definitely going to be back until I finish the whole menu.

    I was so excited to try this vegan restaurant in Paje! It was absolutely incredible. The staff was so kind and the owner was also extremely kind! The coffee was made with cashew milk and was amazing. Can’t recommend this place enough.

    We are a group of Vietnamese and we were very happy to find this nice vegan/vegetarian place that serves a lot of our traditional dishes. Tasty food, big portions (some of us couldnt even finish!). Everything is prepared fresh, that seems to be their concept. Very good!

    Great vegetarian foods! We tried spring and summer rolls, then tomato soup and pho, at last the zanzibarian spinach dish. The dessert was mango sticky rice. Everything was super delicious. Thank you!

    Great place located at Paje main road with mainly vegan options. According to the menu, all is sourced locally, supporting local farmers. Samosas and lentil dal have been very nice. Special recommendation for the Tanzanian coffee brewed with a Vietnamese dripping style.

    Happy not to have missed to discover this place during my trip to Zanzibar! Very cosy - minimalistic place where you see the greenery around you and feel fresh air as there are no windows - you feel you are sitting on a tree high above the world around… I had just time to grab a breakfast and regret not to have more days and try more of their menu… the EVER BEST GUACAMOLE - better than in Mexico! Fresh, clean presentation and lovely staff, including owners - nice young couple. Definitely recommend to all vegans, vegetarians, those with a healthy lifestyle but also all other travelers!

    We only ate here once but we highly recommend the Chilli Sin Carne ! It was soooo good ! The cafe is small so I can imagine it gets busy at times . We had some sort of brownie / natural date bar which was really nice . Only thing we didn't like were the ice coffees as they were super strong / black with not much milk or sweetness. Again this could be preference but we like them with good amount of milk and some natural sweetness like honey . I would highly recommend to try them out !

    Really glad we found a vegan place. We had the chilli sin carne, the summer rolls, the stir fry noodles and the mango sticky rice. The best was the chilli sin carne. The asian dishes were ok, not very asian. The prices were great. Would definitely revisit. They do take their time to prepare the food though - minimum 1 hour +. Been to both Thailand and Vietnam. I'm not saying they are not tasty, they are just different to the authentic ones. This is not unreasonable given that we are in an African country. Nothing personal Lukas :)

    First 🌟 location on the main road in Paje close to all. Second 🌟 food is amazing All good for you, I had coconut drink,from the coconut 🥥 sin Carni with mash, the mash is a bit dry could use more milk. That's me,it's still yummy 😋 Third 🌟 service is with a smile, the food is made fresh and can take up to an hour or more so be prepared to wait Forth 🌟 it's a small cozy place 6 tables for 2, tiny kitchen, authentic Over all nice food 4 🌟 worth the visit to thumbs up from me 👍

    You can drink vietnamese coffee and eat asian foods. Summer roll had a lot of vegetables and peanut sauce was very good. Glass noodles were almost the same as the summer roll ingredients and had a light taste. If it tasted a little stronger, it would have been more better. The food comes out late.

    Tried the teriyaki rice noodles, but didn't like it too much. Atmosphere at the street food court is really chill though and it's nice to sit there for a beer and try out the different stands.

    My favorite veggie restaurant in Paje and in whole Zanzibar so far. They have two restaurants in Paje and both have different dishes to offer. This time we took the veggie burger and it was really delicious. It's sometimes not easy to find vegetarian food in Zanzibar, especially in a variety, but here you don't get disappointed. A big thanks to the owners Lukas and Linh. So happy to get fresh vegetarian food 👍 And in general this new food corner at the roundabout is just a nice place to sit.

    We tried this restaurant and also their second restaurant. Both restaurants have really amazing, tasty and affordable food. Staff, quality of food and place is so good, so you just have to keep going in there. I really highly recommend theirs restaurants to everyone!

    The food was fabulous and the portions more than generous. The server was kind enough to pack what I couldn't finish in a take-out box. Unfortunately the new credit card machine has some kinks to work out as the charge came through three times. Edited to add: the owner was quick to contact me in response to the problem and offered to refund the extra payments.
