Amazing restaurant option 🤩🤩🤩 - Edit
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Simone’s Kitchen for brunch, and it was an amazing experience. The menu offered a wide variety of delicious vegan options, ensuring there was something for everyone to enjoy. From hearty tofu scrambles to flavorful yogurt bowls, every dish was thoughtfully prepared and bursting with flavor.
Read moreThe ambiance was warm and inviting, and the staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, making the entire dining experience even more enjoyable. Whether you're a vegan or just looking to try something new, Simone’s Kitchen is a must-visit spot. I can’t wait to go back and try more of their incredible dishes!

Surprisingly amazing! - Edit
When I think of vegan food, as a non vegan myself, I often stumble onto crazy things I've never seen and could never replicate in my own house. That didn't happen when trying the food in Simone's Kitchen. I found instead confort and delicious food, easy to understand and make and such a nice and cozy environment! Definitely a must try when in Antwerp, the food is so good you forget it's vegan, as in, it doesn't try to be a "vegan version" of something, it simply is the food and it amazes you! And the best part is: Always a changing menu, you get to be happily surprised every month with a different cuisine inspired by different countries!

Had a great meal here! The brunch buffet was lovely and had items from their Indian menu that I was excited to try. Also had a good selection of sweets and drinks- I loved the kombucha and it was made in house! Good deal for the cost

Amazing - Edit
The restaurant is completely vegan and switches up its menu every thew weeks, which for me was a interesting and new concept. It makes it possible to learn a lot of different countries typical food in a short time. The place is very nicely decorated and cozy and the staff will make you feel welcome. ✨

Amazing food - Edit
The place is cosy and warm, staff is kind too. The food is really, really good, and they have the international menu, I think they change it every month, and you can try "veganized" typical food inspired in different countrys, it's very interesting. Also, the weekend brunch is great!!!

Sub par - Edit
Extortionate prices for what seems to be a very basic cookery school. €100 euros for 2x 3 courses of food you could cook at home. Service is good.

Excellent for vegan breakfast, brunch or a B&B stay! - Edit
Note, that it is a vegetarian restaurant, so not everything is vegan and when we were there often several vegan options on the menu were not available.
Read moreThe vegan food that we had was really delicious, the location is very nice and the staff was lovely.
The B&B Hotel in the building as well as a few houses down the street is good price quality.

Overpriced, bland food, small portions and lots and lots of waiting! - Edit
We had high expectations reading the positive reviews on HappyCow and were very excited when entering their lovely backyard, full of greenery. However, the experience quickly turned sour from there. We chose the set menu, which consisted of three tiny samosas for an entré, a small portion of millet and tofu as the main dish and a minuscule Indian dessert, which was very dry and bad tasting. We had to wait at least 30 minutes between each course and paid 80 euros for two persons - an excessive price given the quality and quantity of food. Antwerp has much better vegan restaurants to offer than this, please don’t waste your money.

Great variation, cheap - Edit
Very homely with friendly staff. You can choose for 1, 2 or 3 courses, the dishes are fixed. We came to eat during French week and had onion soup, something bourgignon with polenta and crème brulée. It was good and fresh, it missed some seasoning. The wine is fine as well, and there are several lesser commercial brands of non-alcoholic beverages. It was cheap: we paid less than 250 euros for 5 people, 3 courses each with wine and other drinks. We didn't quite understand their idea of sharing recipes, but we didn't really ask either.

One of the most cosiest places I’ve ever been to - Edit
Visited October 2020.
Read moreThis restaurant seems to be fully vegan by now, not just vegetarian.
It is also a non-profit organisation and most of the employees only speak English as they work there for a couple of months e.g. when they’re studying here or travelling.
Our first reaction when one of the servants opened the door was: ‘What an amazing smell!’ The interior was warm and cosy, decorated with furniture in all kind of styles, but somehow it matched perfectly. With our group of six, we had a separate ‘room’ next to the window. They offer a weekly menu with soup as a starter, a main course consisting of different roasted veggies and salads, and two types of cakes and tarts for dessert. The girl who was serving us was very kind! We all took one of their homemade/house drinks which made some of us make some weird faces. I had the homemade kombucha which was really flavourful and acidic.
Everyone seemed to enjoy the soup, which was bell pepper-tomato & fennel, with some roasted pumpkin seeds on top. The main course was quite a large portion, for some of the kids it was a bit too much. The roasted butternut was definitely everyone’s favourite, followed by the zucchini and the quinoa. A little con i had was the red wine vinegar on the salad, which eventually spilled everywhere on the food, making the children not wanting to eat the rest.
The dessert was delicious, but sadly by then we all were full of the main course. Luckily we got to take the leftovers home.
Would come back, but maybe not with kids under the age of fourteen, as they are usually picky eaters.
See you next time!
Pros: Super duper cosy and warm interior!, Kind, interested and hardworking staff
Cons: Large portions -> small room for dessert :(, Less appealing to children

Very nice place for diner and brunch - Edit
We came here twice: once for dinner and once for brunch and we were very satisfied both times.
Read moreDinner was a fixed menu, all vegan and all delicious. Apparantly the menu changes weekly and can be consulted on their facebook page.
Brunch was very extensive with both savory and sweet options.
They have a pleasant garden terrace in the back, weather allowing of course.
Staff was always very friendly and talkative, and the whole place had a very relaxed, laidback and international atmosphere (last time we went staff was Dutch, Equadorian and Portugese)
Pros: Tasty vegan food, Friendly staff, Quiet outdoor garden
Cons: Clothes can smell like “food” after dinner inside
