A vegetarian kitchen where every dish can be made vegan.

From The Root

In Arabic, nabati means plant-based: to sprout, to grow, to rise from the earth. From the same root comes manbat, the place where life begins, where roots take hold.

To us, Nabäti is more than a name. It is a return to the original taste of home, from family kitchens in Amman and the Levant to our restaurant on Keizerstraat in Rotterdam. Every dish carries that story: vegetarian Jordanian and Levantine cooking, made fresh daily, and every dish can be made vegan.

The Nabäti Table

They are not just recipes; they are memories. Dishes born on street corners and in family kitchens across Jordan and the Levant, filled with warmth and tradition. From falafel and hummus to comforting fatteh bowls, every dish celebrates the heart of Jordanian street food. If fatteh is new to you, this is what fatteh is and how it is served.

Why Nabäti?

Fresh vegetarian food, halal, and proudly rooted in Jordanian tradition, good for you, easy on the planet.

Rooted in Jordanian tradition, built on recipes passed down through generations.

Built on friendship, community and the joy of sharing, inspired by Jordanian hospitality.

Prepared daily with fresh, high-quality vegetarian ingredients; every dish can be made vegan.

Committed to nourishing people and planet, naturally and responsibly.

Customer Reviews

I honestly can't remember having any falafel better than this one, ever. Really really good. The hummus was also particularly good, flavorful. Obviously high quality ingredients. Very lovely people and a cute spot too!

5 out of 5 Isaiah July 2026

I had the cauliflower bowl after asking the owner for recommendation and it was so delicious!! Loved the crispy feeling. The deserts were equally delicious and the homemade lemonade was truly refreshing (didn't get to take a picture). The owner was so kind to let me try a falafel while waiting for my order and even give me free desert and later water. I was able to charge my laptop and phone there aswell and so some work. Top service and staff, very human

Good to know

Four questions come up more often than all the others, so each one has a page of its own rather than a line buried on this one: whether we count as a vegan restaurant in Rotterdam, what halal by composition means when there is no certificate, where to eat a vegan lunch near Blaak, and whether Jordanian cooking is the Levantine food you were looking for.
