Zelen - Odessa

We ordered a plate of aloo paratha, mentioned as 600g in the menu. when the plate came, four paratha parts were on it. we said to the waitress that it was impossible that it was 600g. I think they intentionally put it on a very heavy plate to reduce the chance that they discover their cheating. the waitress took the plate and said they would weigh it back in the kitchen. she came back without the plate and without saying a word. when we asked again, she said it was actually too easy and they cook more. after a past they came back with double(! the portion, which means that they don't just cheat a little, and still don't do anything. the paratha itself had hardly taste, no flavor or something. we also ordered pitas that were even more tasteless and were filled with very few ground vegetables. they can get much more for their money in other vegan restaurants in the environment. Don't stop.

I tried to go 9 o'clock as the opening times are listed here 0830 before I had to catch a train. it was not open and no hours are posted at the door:

I visited this restaurant a couple of times and tried a variety of wraps, which were delicious. I also had the bread and dips appetizer, which was okay, but the bread quickly became tough. There is no English menu, but each time I visited, there was a staff member who was able to assist me confidently in English. The location is not very close to other attractions, but it is only a 10-15 minute walk from the train station. This restaurant is highly recommended as it is the only vegetarian option in Odesa. However, it is on the pricier side compared to other restaurants in Odessa.

I found Zelen restaurant yesterday, a charming vegetarian restaurant in a beautiful city! The staff was just as vibrant, friendly, and wholesome as the dishes they offer. I will definitely be coming back again and again, that's for sure.

This is currently the only café of its kind in Odessa. It offers a decent variety of vegetarian dishes as well as vegan options. The staff is friendly and the interior is nice and clean. The food can be delicious at times, while other times it is simply good and nourishing depending on what you order. However, it would be even better if this café were located closer to the city center.
