On a bright and hot Sunday, I found this place at a time I was in desperate need of a meal and…read moreshade. This restaurant looked inviting and smelled heavenly, so I wandered inside. I seated myself at a table, and someone brought me a menu promptly. It was quite hefty, showing that this place had more options than what you could see at the grab and go counter in the front. It is all in German, so English speakers be prepared, but other than that it was easy to navigate and had many options for all palates. I ordered the falafel teller (plate) and a water, and while I was waiting and small basket of pita bread (very thin) was brought to my table. When my meal arrived, the falafel was very hot, obviously fried fresh, and the sesame dip was splendid with it. My simple side salad was also very refreshing, as I was still hot from exploring the castle ruins that morning. I highly recommend this place to anyone in Heidelberg. Whether you want a quick snack or a sit down meal, this place will have you covered. It is also very reasonably priced compared to everything around as well!

WOW. 5 Stars for a fabulous Lebanese restaurant that delivered on flavor, texture, authenticity,…read moreand location. I love visiting Heidelberg when I'm in Germany and walking through the streets imagining I am a college student at a gorgeous European campus of the oldest university in Germany. We saw this highly rated spot while walking along the cobblestone streets and decided to stop for food. We ordered the mixed plate which featured babaganoush, hummus, falafel (donut shaped), potatoes, eggplant, roasted cauliflower, salad, spinach pastry, and cheese pastry. When I tell you were could not stop raving about each and every aspect of this dish, I am not exaggerating. I legitimately think the people at the table next to us got annoyed at these overly animated Americans. I will dream about these donut-shaped falafels as there is nothing like them where I live (so so far away). We also opted for a glass of Lebanese dry white wine, which was super crisp and pleasant. Overall, a must-try when in Heidelberg. I wish I had been able to take some more to-go- especially since we saw that that they have convenient lunch-box style offerings for the college students.

I greatly enjoyed my meal here on a sunny Saturday evening…read more My friend and I were in need of sustenance and fluids after wandering the hauptstrasse in old town Heidelberg. We had seen this place with its menu posted outside earlier in the day and had decided to seek it out again for a break. The menu (entirely in German) was simple and straight-forward. They focused on burgers and pizzas, with enough options to please any eater. Both my friend and I ordered veggie burgers and I got sweet potato fries as my side. The burger was great. I love a veggie patty and this one was good. It was blended nicely together and did not completely fall apart as you ate it. The extra veggies on the patty also added nicely to the burger. As for my sweet potato fries, they were good but under-seasoned. I wanted to add salt to them, but there were no salt shakers to be seen in the establishment. My friend seemed to enjoy her regular fries a great deal. The restaurant was clean and cool compared to the hot summer day. It had a modern, hipster design with lots of bench seats and small tables. There was also wifi for patrons. My only complaint (besides the fries) was some comments made from the workers while we were there. They could tell we were tourists (given the English) and politely asked where we were from. When I said America, one of them tried to make a Trump joke (which is a sore spot for me and not the first time someone has tried to bring this name up while I have been in Germany). They also kept correcting my German (especially after I told them where I was from). At first, I appreciated it as I am trying to improve, but after a while just felt rude and nit-picky. These interactions just left me feeling uneasy and made me happy to leave when we did.
