Was Tuna at Brainwave Café a mag?
omg this katsu-don was so much better than i expected! I ordered it with egg because i’ve only recently begun to slowly settle into a plant-based life. It was super tasty and the portion is huge for the price! so worth it! The boss was really nice as well. Will definitely be back to try the other dishes!! View all feedback.

What meeel dislikes about Brainwave Café:
The food is delicious and convenient to have in the Haymarket/CBD area. Some menu items are unique and not found in any other vegan restaurants in Sydney (such as hainanese chicken, jajangmyun, etc.). However, in terms of taste and price, I still prefer other vegan Asian/Chinese restaurants. View all feedback.

I studied abroad in Sydney, at UTS, for 6 months and I would come here all the time! Near the uni and central station.

The taste of Thai milk tea is amazing! Both Thai tea latte and soft serve. A hidden gem near Central Station. Definitely will go there again!

Five of us made dinner reservations at Brainwave, our first time dining there... and it exceeded our expectations. We decided to share five dishes and each one was absolutely delightful. We will definitely be returning.

The restaurant is in a small laneway just opposite Central Station. Very nice place with outdoor and indoor seating areas, friendly staff and good atmosphere. Have been here twice (tried 4 dishes in total together with my partner) which ranged from average fried up Asian noodles to great starters. Would definitely give it another try, they have a huge range of dishes.
