Lovely staff, lovely food - Edit
We went there twice as it was such a good experience. The staff there is lovely and the food is delicious!
Read moreDon't be overexited about the vegan tiramisu though as it is just crumbled Oreos with a vanilla pudding-ish creme😄But other than this everything is perfect! (Also you get very big coffee mugs there which is quite untypical for Rome/Italy but made my coffee addicted heart really happy).
Pros: Lovely staff, Reasonable pricing, Delicious food

Friendly & Inviting place! - Edit
I used Happy Cow app to get me through our stay in Rome and this place was a lovely find! Service was quick, friendly staff, and we came back again and again as we loved the food and service!
Read moreOne thing I will say is one of the servers clearly did not like the English😒which was slightly disheartening, but the others we loved and enjoyed eating there. They ended up giving us some little bags of free food to take with us each time we came and it’s those little touches that make you come back!
My advice is to order the mixed grill (we had it per person even though it says serves 2!)
Pros: Good choice of food , Great prices , Mostly friendly staff
Cons: Slightly stand offish staff member

Lovely place - Edit
The pizzas don't have alot of flavour for my taste but it is well located and the space it's beautiful. We went back next day for a cold oat capuccino and it was perfect flavour in a big cup

Cheesy pasta with pepper - Edit
I always love to try completely vegan restaurants. This place is a bit more pricey but it was worth it. I had the cheesy pasta with pepper and my friend hat the lentil balls. My portion was huge and super filling but the lentil balls were mainly veggies. Sharing both dishes worked perfectly for us.
Read moreThe tiramisu tasted delicious as well ☺️ wouldn’t mind a bigger portion though, it came in a little coffee cup.

Non so se ci andrei di nuovo - Edit
Cibo buono, posto carino, servizio ok. Il pranzo in sé è andato bene, ma quando siamo entrati ci hanno praticamente ignorato, e dopo essere andati via ci siamo accorti che ci hanno fatto pagare del pane che non solo non abbiamo mangiato, ma che neanche avevamo mai chiesto lol.

Lovely find - Edit
I tried the truffel-pasta and pizza Amatriciana. Both were delightfully good. The orange juice is freshly squeezed. Plus points also for good customer service. Well deserved five stars.

Relies heavily on replacement products - Edit
Especially with the pastas most of them have some form of a replacement product such as vegan bacon, salmon etc. I don’t generally mind replacement products but I don’t like the taste of many of these original things so I also am not looking for a replacement of them. It would be good if there were some options that rely more on vegetables. I then had a tomato sauce pasta without the vegan bacon and that was pretty good and a big portion.

This place is strange. - Edit
The food was alright but the service was bad. The waiter was super slow. The furniture is shaky which makes it hard to eat properly. The idea of a vegan menu is nice but there are no options with just vegetables. Also they offer no oat milk. It is a bit too pricey for that.
Read moreStill, nice decoration.

Not the cheapest place and expect to have a service charge on your bill, but for the luxury of having lots of choice it’s worth it.

Tourist trap - Edit
We were looking forward to discover this restaurant but very fast realized it’s a big tourist trap. The pasta carbonara we got was not spaghetti. We ordered a tiramisu but after 20 min of waiting, we got 2 Oreos with whipped cream on top for 7€! At the end we had to pay 2€ per person for the service without any prior notice of that. Avoid this place if you want a good Italian meal or good experience!

Paradiso per vegani - Edit
Abbiamo provato oggi questo ristorante e ne siamo rimaste super soddisfatte.
Read morePosizione comoda, in centro e locale veramente carino e ben curato e climatizzato.
Appena siamo arrivate ci hanno fatto accomodare e portato subito una bottiglia fresca d'acqua, che visto il caldo di Roma d'estate ci stava proprio bene.
Inoltre, c'è tantissima scelta. Noi abbiamo assaggiato le olive ascolane, la carbonara, la pasta cacio e pepe e siamo rimaste super piacevolmente stupite da tutto, soprattutto la carbonara, che consigliamo vivamente!! Però era davvero tutto buonissimo. Inoltre da sottolineare la gentilezza del personale, sono tutti stati carinissimi e super cordiali con noi.
Se proprio dovessimo trovare un contro sarebbe forse il prezzo degli antipasti e dei dolci. Sia le olive e il tiramisù costavano 7€, ottima qualità e buone, però forse un po' troppo.
Per il resto è andato tutto divinamente:))
Comunque sia, ci torneremo sicuramente!

The best Carbonara I’ve ever tried! - Edit
This restaurant deserves more than five stars! I visited Rome for the first time and I can’t wait to return. And one of the reasons I want to go back is this restaurant. The food is super delicious! The staff is very polite and it is located in a very charming neighborhood. I tried the carbonara (OMG) and the pizza tartufata, which was terrific too! As I dessert, I tried a cheesecake! 5 stars for you guys! Keep up the great work!

Great Vegan Lunch/Dinner in a Convenient Spot of Rome - Edit
📌 @buddyveggy
Read more•VEGETARIAN RESTAURANT•
Taste: 🤤🤤🤤🤤/5
Value: £££ - Reasonably Pricey
🌱 BURGER VEGANO BEYOND MEAT
💰: €16.00
💭: this was such a good option to have when needing a change from pastas/pizzas/etc. The burger itself was delicious, especially with the dipping sauces (ketchup and mustard). The chips were a little too big for my liking but nonetheless tasty.
🤷🏽♀️: Order again? Yes
🌱 PIZZA AMATRICIANA VEGAN
💰: €12.00
💭: favourite pizza in Rome! Thick base and nice vegan bacon pieces.
🤷🏽♀️: Order again? Yes
🏆 - Fav Dish
🌱 PIZZA MARGARITA VEGAN
💰: €12.00
💭: thicker based pizza that was crispy on the surface but soft on the inside. *mwah* perfecto. cheese was great.
🤷🏽♀️: Order again? Yes
🌱 VEGAN FOCACCIA
💰: €12.00
💭: bread with olive oil as a side. Nothing spectacular
🤷🏽♀️: Order again? No
📝: we came back here again for lunch because it’s at such a convenient point being in the middle of all the main sites. The restaurant gets very busy around 1300 so maybe book a table if you don’t want to sit outside.

Buono ma... - Edit
Molto più bravi e creativi con i secondi e gli antipasti che i primi, questi ultimi purtroppo si capisce essere stati pensati per i turisti perché non ci sono che proposte di piatti tradizionali romani fatti in versione vegan. Nulla di che, meglio prendere altro. Se mettessero qualche primo più vario e fantasioso come per i secondi allora sarebbero al top.

Cons: Costi alti per quello che offrono, Troppo turistico

So many vegan options - Edit
All the vegan options! Wanted to give them a high score because of all the options on vegan food buuuuut the dessert was NOT something I would recommend.
Read moreI tried the ceasar salad, wich was AMAZING! The avocado tartar was also extremely satisfying.
Ended the meal with a pasta carbonara vegan, because I haven't had one in years. A little dull, but rich in taste.
The dessert was very dissapointing tho. Maybe because we were there very late and that I expected cheese cake, but they were out of stock:)
Pros: Many vegan options, Rich menu, not only pizza and pasta, The vegan cheese was AMAZING
Cons: Dissapointing desserts, A little expensive

Great surprise - Edit
After seeing a few low reviews I was slightly sceptical about this place. But my experience was amazing. Service was slightly slow but not too bad. All the food we ate was great. The only complaint really is that the deserts we had tasted amazing but were not really what they claimed to be. E.g. cheesecake was crushed oreos with cream and fruit no real cheese cake flavour.

No flavours - Edit
The best thing about this place is that its central, and its guaranteed to have many vegan options. I would recommend going here only if your in the area and desperately need something fast. But don’t go out of your way to go here - the food lacked flavours, the portions were really small and the vegan breakfast was very expensive (€15) considering it was only (bland) scrambled tofu and some beans.
Read morePros: Central, great location , All vegetarian
