Buba - Belfast

I paid £90 for a table of 9, but only 7 of us showed up, which can happen with large groups. They charged us an additional £20 for the no-shows, which felt like daylight robbery. I would never return to this restaurant. The vegan options were decent, but overall, they felt overpriced.

Our party of two reserved a table, and I was pleased to find that about a third to half of the menu is vegan. We enjoyed various dishes including baklava, flatbread, cauliflower kebab, filo sweet cake, and a chocolate brownie paired with skyberry sorbet, all washed down with Belfast lager and water. Everything was absolutely delicious! The cauliflower was a bit too soft for my liking, but the flavors were great. I appreciated that the dishes weren’t overly oily, as I had some concerns since we usually stick to oil-free meals during lockdown and can find excessive oil uncomfortable. Plus, there were no imitation meats on the menu, which is a nice bonus. I would definitely recommend this restaurant!

I live in Scotland, and whenever I'm back in Belfast to visit my family, I always struggle to find a place where we can all enjoy a happy and easy meal. Buba was undoubtedly the best vegan food I’ve had in Belfast. Half of the menu is vegan, and all the options are incredibly delicious. Everything I tried was fantastic, the service was excellent, and it was refreshing to see well-curated vegan choices instead of the typical risotto. The food was also reasonably priced; I truly can't recommend it enough!

Buba specializes in eastern Mediterranean dishes and offers a complete dedicated vegan menu. had lunch here on Sunday 19/08/2018 and loved the visually living style of the restaurant interior, which is filled with precious colors and beautiful detail. as it was a mild day, we sat outside and enjoy the hectic and the trubel des st. anne platz. I ordered the vegan menu and my appetizer from the main menu. we both loved the range of small plates called nibbles, flatbreads, bites, munches and sides. in particular my dishes of lemon chilli olives, flatbread with spinat, chili jam, spiced cauliflower and charred aubergine, granatapfel mint salad were more tasteful and tasteful. a really nice note is that vegan items are clearly marked on the drink list, so I was confident that my wein was actually vegan. it came to some different times from the kitchen that I always find a little annoying, but I can forgive this little irritation, as it was excellent to eat. I'm very looking forward to a return visit.

Lovely vegan menu of nibbles, small and large plates. Really delicious food but quite small portions, so your bill may mount up if you're hungry! Dishes were served one at a time, which might be a space issue as we were dining at a small table, but it would have been nice to have the option to pick over the food as a whole. Would recommend for lunch rather than dinner, but it is only open from 1pm at the weekend.
