The menu explicitly marks several dishes as 'vegan' (e.g., Gazpacho Andaluz, Moroccan vegetable tagine, Zaalouk Fassi) and offers a vegan Thymian-Zitronensauce dressing. However, the kitchen is shared, and the menu states 'We are happy to provide information about ingredients in our dishes that could trigger allergies or intolerances. Please contact our staff.' There is no dedicated vegan prep area or fryer mentioned. HappyCow lists the venue as 'Serves meat, vegan options available.'
