Nuba Allure

Nuba is a Vancouver gem, serving quality, inexpensive, hearty Lebanese food.

Their falafels are cause for celebration! Victor’s falafel recipe is a secret mix of organic chickpeas, fava beans, veggies and spices.


The Falafel Plate (served with hot sauce, taboulleh, hummus, tahini, salad, pita & brown rice or roasted potatoes)


Najib’s Special (crispy cauliflower tossed with lemon & sea salt, served with tahini)

I also highly recommend:

Garden Falafel Pita ~ rolled pita bread with Victor’s must try falafels, organic greens, home made pickle, tahini, slices of avocado and hummus.

Mjadra ~ organic green lentils and rice with onions and jalapeno, served with avocado and carmelized onions. This dish could turn lentil skeptics into lovers.

Locations in Vancouver:

Nuba Cafe ~ 1206 Seymour ~ 778.371.3266

This little Nuba location is ideal for take out (perhaps to the nearby park). I have their number on speed dial.

Nuba Restaurant ~ 207 West Hastings ~ 604.688.1655

The West Hastings location that opened earlier this year in the basement of the Dominion building, is the perfect place to take a date… and order La Feast, a two course vegetarian mezze sampler for two (to veganize, just ask them to hold the feta and yogurt).

Both locations are open for lunch and dinner Monday through Saturday. The word is out that Nuba on West Hastings will soon be opening Sundays for a vegetarian brunch as well!

* May 2010 update ~ Nuba has opened a third location ~ Nuba Cafe ~ 146 East 3rd Avenue ~ 604.568.6727
