A must visit! - Edit
Menu was massive! So many options to choose from. The menu is online and each item has a photo and all the ingredients making it very helpful! The truffle spaghetti pasta was so filling and worth the €18!

It’s true: best vegan place in Rome! - Edit
Went to Buddy multiple times during my stay in Rome and loved all the dishes I tried. They offer a lot of pinsas and pastas, classic Italian antipasti (starters) en dolci (desserts), fresh juices, and even breakfast and lunch options 🌱
Read moreA true lifesaver for vegans in Rome. I had bad experiences with other restaurants listed on HappyCow so gladly there was Buddy to count on. Prices are fair too and the staff is friendly. Will be back! 🥳
Pros: Great variety in dishes, Fast and friendly service, Good quality-price ratio

So many options!
Read moreStaff very friendly and helpful. Lots of seating inside and out.
Good portion sizes, good quality food. Bit disappointed in the pizza, base just wasn’t right, I had a better pizza at an omni place elsewhere. But overall really happy and enjoyed all the food I had here, hence coming back here again and again 😍
Pros: Variety of menu choice , Friendly staff, good spoken English , Great food
Cons: Not obvious you have to use the menu on your phone

Très sympa - Edit
Restaurant bien placé et superbe déco cosy. Du choix dans la carte (salades, pinsas…) nous avons pris le pinsa diavola et la salade cesar. La pinsa était très bonne et bien relevée. Mais la salade avait beaucoup trop de sauce. C’en était presque écœurant hélas.
Read morePros: Choix , Décoration
Cons: Trop de sauce dans la salade cesar

Great food!! - Edit
We had found this in Rome after not finding much vegan food in Venice, and we're over the moon. The lasagna was incredible, and the hummus sandwich was also great. Their selection of juices were different but tasted great.
Read moreWe couldn't finish our mains because we had to leave space for dessert. We got the vegan tiramisu and brownie. They were decent. But the mains are definitely worth going for.
Pros: Mains, Service, Fresh juices

Vegan tiramisu is out of this world 😍 - Edit
I got the truffle spaghetti and tiramisu, and wow! I haven’t had tiramisu since I went vegan, and it was just the best thing I ever had! Even my non vegan mom loved it!

Good food, service to improve - Edit
Centrally located restaurant with an extensive menu and delicious dishes.
Read moreCompared to other vegan restaurants there is less attention to the quality of raw materials: many foods are prepackaged, and for allergies and intolerances the kitchen has to check a long list of ingredients.
We had dinner last night and my husband is still waiting to hear if the entrees contained ingredients that are forbidden to him....
Pros: Spaghetti al tartufo, Central location
Cons: Little attention to allergies and intolerances

Beyond burger, pinsa, pasta,… there’s something for every taste. The place is nicely decorated, with many dishes to choose from, whether it’s for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. They also have a vast selection of smoothies and fresh juices.

We went here defeated by the boiling heat, and went as the happiest ( and fullest ) vegan food connoisseurs on earth. Visiting Italy, we obviously had to try the vegan carbonara, which was absolutely breath taking, the other pasta dish ( forgot the name but it had mushrooms and „meat“ in it ) was amazing aswell. The cheese cake we shared for dessert was very rich with chocolate but so good. The staff was super nice aswell and we instantly got a table with a nice view. Amazing experience and HUGE recommendation!!

A definite when in Rome - Edit
I shared a mixed starter with my husband, then had carbonara followed by tiramisù. It was all great, but the highlight was the carbonara- I found myself using the last of the pasta to mop up every bit of the delicious sauce!
