Wonderful vegan restaurant

This is a lovely place, There are only 4 tables in a spacious and pleasant courtyard. I had an empanada and a chocolate drink. It was a wonderful meal.

Good food and nice staff

Nice little restaurant for a good price. I tried the avocado bread with herbs and it tasted different but delicious. I also had a fresh orange juice which was also 'muy bien'. The staff was really nice and the atmosphere is good!
I totally can recommend this place :)

Hands down Best Vegan in Oaxaca!

This is hands down the best vegan restaurant in Oaxaca. Our favorites were the:
Caldo de frijol - red bean soup. Excellent!
Empanadas - very good
Give them a try! :-)

Pros: excellent taste, Able to do Whole Food Plant based (vegan & no oil), low cost

Cons: closed Wednesdays

No tasty

The emplacement is nice, the menu look good and cheap but the food it's not really tasty, my guacamole did not have oignons or cilantro and he had too much lemon.
The tacos is small and not so tasty and the tapas of bread are nothing on it, tomatoes full of water without tast, bread without salt and a vegetable butter is inexistant.
We definitely don't recommand this place.

Pros: Cheap , Location

Cons: No tasty

Just perfect

This fully-vegan place is everything I could ask for. Courtyard seating, so relaxing, beautiful, the sun peaking through (you can ask for a beach umbrella), and the soothing sound of a little fountain on the wall. Cacti, plants... Seriously beautiful. The service is so hospitable and wonderful. The woman serving the food is all smiles, seems very sweet and sincere. She takes the time to make sure you are satisfied and you understand everything. I briefly met the cook and she is just as sweet. She explained to me that the ingredients are all natural and she does not cook with any oil whatsoever. Very healthy food. We got the menu of the day, which was 55 pesos. One "empanada" (which was not exactly that, more like a really big taco sort of thing). You can choose between the 3 options they have (see photos of menu) and I really recommend the "calabaza con queso de la casa". Now the "cheese" that they have is okay. It looks like just some ground up nuts to be honest. It doesn't taste at all like anything cheesy. But it was still good and attractive to the eyes :) With this "empanada" you receive a salad (with pumpkin seeds and tiny cherry tomatoes), guacamole and homemade frijoles (YUMMY). I added the guac and bean puree in my empanadas. We tried all 3 empanadas (ordered the 3rd one separately) and it was delicious. We also got a huge glass of orange juice (was good, but tasted a little bit like concentrate orange juice). All in all, WOW, what a wonderful little restaurant. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Pros: healthy, good value for your money, central
