Jenna Rose RobbinsJuly 4, 2017Probably the best hummus I've ever had. First time I went, one of the owners explained it's a Palestinian/Israeli co-initiative. Tons of veggie options. Great garden in summer. Definitely go!
Elisa G. A.April 30, 2016total hipster experience, especially in summer when you can eat outside. food is excellent!!!
MadisonOctober 12, 2017It really is just that good. If you're a hummus enthusiast this place is a must go. And if you're not, you'll be converted. The space is run-down-hipster.
Nora ChoOctober 16, 2016Pita bread, hummus and falafel. I cannot have any of these at any other place in Berlin anymore. Really the best I have tasted so far. These chefs clearly love their job and food.
Roshan GembaliApril 24, 2018Fantastic food with a very good vibe around the place. Absolutely recommended if you are looking for a place to spend a nice summer evening. The only downside was the shoddy service.
GieddreleSeptember 10, 2016We had 4 meals and every was exceptional tasty! Very nice service and cozy atmosphere. Gonna go back for sure!
B. Aaron TalbotJanuary 1, 2018despite some disorganization in the beginning, the new year's eve dinner was fantastic: great dishes, the hummus was great, really good kebab, yummy chocolate mousse...friendly and accommodating staff
Polina KorJuly 8, 2018Hummus is really good, bread and cheese are delicious. There is a breakfast table + one menu dish. The price - 12.5 eur without drink, pretty expensive. But once in a while you can try.
Tobias SchmidtFebruary 3, 2019I've tried all the hummus places in Berlin. Kanaan serves the most refined of the bunch. The Iraqi sabich has an interesting combination of flavors and the hummus is just super smooth!
MatthiasAugust 3, 2018I am not even a dessert guy but that “cheesecake” was HEAVEN!👌🏼 It was just the most outstanding but all dishes were fantastic!Combined with the beer garden vibe is an amazing place to grab a meal!
Alex ShestakovOctober 15, 2017I’ve tried Humshuka and Sabich plates - both were delicious. One of the best hummus places in Berlin.
Jon BillsAugust 19, 2018Come hungry! This place serves huge portions and everything is 15% off at lunch times. Fabulous veggie burger, bursting with flavour.
Max Blue 🚴🍔March 12, 2016Definitely order the hamschuka, an amazing combination of humus and schakshuka. 👌😍
- Wero NikaDecember 2, 2018The food is lovely and healthy and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend the weekend brunch, you can't go wrong with it
BiancaApril 22, 2018Israeli-Palestinian cuisine, extremely tasty. Best falafel in town for sure and humus plate with tahini was awesome. Highly recommended
Karin GattringerApril 22, 2018Spectacular masabacha. Since they make everything fresh, expect a waiting time, and don’t come hungry.
Sanketh ShettyNovember 26, 2016The mezze plate is tasty and filling. The hummus is awesome. The veggies are cooked perfectly. Also try the sambusa with sweet potato.- MagSeptember 22, 2018huge, delicious and best looking falafel plate in whole Berlin. great for lunch.
- Jennifer RFebruary 22, 2018Hummus hummus so much hummus! Try as many as you can. Be prepared to sit outside in their garden in winter, so bundle up
Eleonora F.August 22, 2016Awesome Hummus, prepared to perfection and in different varieties. Staff don't speak German (or at least the one wr spoke to)
Pawel CFebruary 11, 2017Best hummus in town! Get the version with aubergine or beetroots and the roasted cauliflower on the side.
Stephanie ReeseFebruary 21, 2017Woah, delicious. Try everything. The salad plate was pleasantly surprising with lots of delicious warms and cold dishes.
DCJuly 21, 2017Yeah. Go for the Hamshuka. It's really worth it. But it's a little spicy. So order enough to drink.
KasiaSeptember 3, 2017Delicious hipsterized hummus, falafel, chips, sauces, pita...everything is perfect and the atmosphere very relaxed.
All dishes are delicious, hummus, eggplants, zattar, sauces and pastry. They have self-made lemonade!
Tao TaoAugust 21, 2019Good hummus and some interesting combinations. All veggie. Not the best Israeli food in town but pretty solid- Géraldine MullerJuly 29, 2016Delicious, authentic and fresh dishes in a cool "berliner" background, for a very fair price
Mark MulderAugust 12, 2019Waiting times to get your food were LONG - whether you are in the restaurant or in the biergarten section. But the food is indeed good. Once you've had hummus there all other hummus seems inferior.
The Shakshuka is an Israeli stew of vegetables with egg on top. Spicy and very nice.
the_food_aficionadoFebruary 23, 2017I liked the hummus a lot. Kitchen crew was disorganized, had to wait 60 mins for a dish. Only around 25 seats, so reserve if you want to be sure.
Michael RavenJuly 22, 2018Eat at Yafo in Prenzlauer Berg instead - Much nicer, cleaner, and they even bring you your food (something this place could learn to do...).- Ben BöhmerMay 20, 2016The hummus is pretty good. Try the hummshuka; hummus with shakshuka. Friendly staff!
Alessandro LocatelliJuly 16, 2017Good food but nothing extraordinary: falafel were a bit dry and hummus not very tasty. Nice presentation and location, seats only outdoor.
