Delicious! - Edit
I enjoyed Buddha’s Plate and a slice of Blueberry Pie! The plate was rice, dhal, cabbage, peas, carrots, tofu, creamy potatoes, and of course a variety of healthy spices! The gentleman at the counter assured me everything was vegan.
Read moreThe desserts were all marked as vegan, as well. I decided to go with the blueberry pie and it was just delectable. Not sickeningly sweet - just right! And if you are going to have dessert, you could do a lot worse, health-wise.
The place is very low-key and relaxed, quiet enough to have a conversation with one’s companions. And the location is very convenient. Next time I’m in Dublin, I know where I’m going to have lunch!
Pros: Mostly vegan, Delicious food, Pretty healthy

Great value tasty food - Edit
I really enjoyed my meal here. It was recommended by a friend and I had also seen it on happy cow, so I was looking forward to trying it. I got the small plate, which is choice of rice (white or brown), dahl, and 3 salads. I was left so full afterwards I felt like I could burst! It's great value for only €10.95. All dishes are vegetarian, most are vegan. All the flavours were tasty. Something that made choosing beforehand slightly tricky is that there was no description of the dishes (which are served buffet style) so you also have to ask re vegan options or any allergies. We were here early for dinner, around 5pm, and found a table no problem and didn't have to queue, but we saw a bigger crowd starting to come in around 6pm so bear that in mind. Would definitely recommend and plan on returning!

Always delicious and big portions - Edit
The “small” plate is a really big portion of rice with dahl, tofu and whatever veggies they have on the day. Everything is well spiced and tasty. Not the most beautiful space so probably best for a quick bite.

delicious - Edit
Depending on the size of your plate, you could choose 3-4 dishes from the buffet. The small plate was plentiful. All except from one option were vegan.

Food for the soul!!!! - Edit
Wow this place is unbelievable! I got the ‘small plate’ which consisted of rice, daal and choice of three extras - definitely not small. So satisfying and delicious. No waiting time, friendly staff and great value for money.

Delicious Indian food. One can choose from different sized plates that include rice, dal and several side dishes. The portions are generous, it's a good deal overall. The staff can tell which options are vegan.

Brilliant location just off O Connell Street. Open throughout the afternoon and evening. Many delicious vegan options served by plate size, and yummy desserts to follow. Well worth a visit.

Delicious, generous and cheap - Edit
Go there hungry or you'll come back with leftover! The staff was really friendly all smiling ☺️ the small plate is actually huge!! And it is cheap. The food was savory, spicy just enough (for me who don't like spicy food) It looks really popular as there was a line up at the counter as I was leaving around 18h30. Go there if you wanna have a comfort meal while in Dublin!

Best veggie/vegan food in Dublin - Edit
Absolutely delicious vegan options and lots of variety. We got large plates meaning rice plus daal, tofu curry, potato curry, bean mix, vegetable gratin. Almost all the food was vegan - with two veggie food things, both of which had a (delicious) vegan equivalent. (Lassi only veggie sadly.)
Read moreVery generous portion sizes.
Best food we've had in Dublin on our trip so far - and the best vegan tofu curry I've ever had. Friendly service too.
Really recommend.

Amazing value for money - Edit
Really glad to have stopped in here. Huge, heaping plate of food for less than 11€. Didn’t taste too oily or unhealthy - lots of veggies, tofu, and brown rice. Nothing too fancy, but really hit the spot, and the staff was very friendly. Would definitely come here again!

I used to eat here whenever I visited Dublin before the pandemic and I’m so glad to find that this place has survived. I ordered a “small” plate which is a good-sized meal, and it was as delicious and filling as ever.

Great experience! - Edit
Fast service and great selection of food. I ordered a full plate which was only €15, it was a selection of 5 types of mains (None were labelled so I didn't know what each dish was, but was assured they were all vegan).
Read moreI struggled to finish the portion I ordered and I was starving before ordering. Each dish was really tasty and they all worked well together, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend govinda's to anyone.
The main con that I would like to mention is that the toilets are down a set of stairs with no elevator access, which would mean they are completely inaccessible for people with certain disabilities.
Edit: Went back for takeaway and got the large plate option, it was basically the same size as the plate I got before. The staff were very friendly and really packed the container full, so the portion size was great after a day of travelling.
We had a trip to Dublin yesterday and had to end it on a good note so me and GC got a large tray each for takeaway and spotted some vegan deserts, we got the apple pie and the banoffee. The apple pie was tasty but the banoffee was my favourite by far, I would definitely get it again. And the same as last time staff was lovely and food was amazing, I wish they were available were I live so I could make excuses to eat there regularly.

Generous portions! - Edit
I was surprised I hadn't reviewed this place previously, because I've been here a couple of times before. They tend to be a bit cheaper than other restaurants, and their portions are generous. I had a "small plate", but it was still lots of good food. Don't be shy to sit with strangers, though, they tend to be very busy, especially around lunch time.
