cappuccino 😥 - Edit
Their cake was good, but their cappuccino wasn’t cappuccino. It was like a black coffee with little bit of milk. 😥hmm

Best Saitan i had so far (Arequipeno Chicharron). A little bit pricey but worth it.

Nice options but salty - Edit
Leuke opties en leuk binnenplaatsje. Alleen de risotto en het rijst gerecht waren wel echt wat te zout. Wel goede (grote) porties.

Great food - Edit
Excellent food, just a bit slow. There were only a few tables occupied and we still had quite a wait. The food, when it arrived, was still pretty good

Good food but - Edit
We went for diner early, the restaurant was quite empty, quickly we were informed that neither the burgers nor the sandwiches were available for order. We ordered the pad Thai and the BBQ seitan fingers and specified we wanted them at the same time. The pad Thai arrived first, it was very good but cold, while the rest arrived 10 minutes later (at least it was warm). When we asked for deserts, they also said these weren’t available. Overall, good food but served cold and most wasn’t available.

Great food and big portions - Edit
The portions and main dishes are big enough for two people! The flavor was great and the vegan chicken was the closest I have ever tasted since I became vegetarian 💚

Delicious! - Edit
We had buffalo nikkei wings and chicharrón arequipeño and they were both delicious! They're both made out of seitan but manage to have very distinct flavors. Also had the lemon pie as dessert which was decent but not mind-blowing.

Tasty Dining with some flaws - Edit
High end dining restaurant in vegan with some flaws. Firstly the food was delicious no doubts but given the price we had some smaller things to remark:
Read more- The entree came like two minutes after the main course so we had to eat them simultaneously.
- Main dish was only warm
- The Chicken Teriyaki Sandwich was more a burger
Other than that the experience was nice. Pricey but nice.
🍝 Pasta a la Huancaína con lomo saltado
Great sauce and noodles. Dish was bit too cold. Seitan bites for my experience too thick
🥪 🍔 Chicken Teriyaki Sandwich
Tasty patties but overall more a burger than a sandwich. Came without sauces and was quite dry. Was no problem to order different sides in addition when asked
🥔🌽 Caparinas (Entree)
Favorite dish. Hot and tasty overall great

Do yourself a favor and go eat there! - Edit
We had the arroz a la norteña con no pollo teriyaki and the rocoto relleno con papas dorados and both were really amazing!! The ginger and mango soda was a little too sweet for my taste. And the apple cake was nothing special but still really good. The location is also really nice just like the staff! Great experience!
Read moreEdit: Beacause everything was so good we went to eat there again and this time it was even better! We had the pasta a la huancaina with lomo saltado and the chicharrón arequipeño and both were amazing especially the pasta! The staff was super nice and helpful like the last time!

Fancy - Edit
Lovely venue with an interesting, mostly Peruvian menu. Chose the lomo saltado and the chicharron. Good sized dishes, both quite rich and VERY salty. Both also had a lot of garlic. We liked them both but would have benefited from more fresh ingredients to cut through the richness. Glad to see vegan pisco sour on the menu too.

Muy buenas opciones - Edit
Probablemente la carta vegana más extensa de Arequipa, también de las más caras. Buena calidad de la comida y buen trato. Pedí para llevar y me lo prepararon todo con mucho gusto. El local es muy agradable.

Good vegan local dishes - Edit
We had the ceviche de setas y champioñes, the rocoto relleno and the vegan Nashville chicken. The ceviche was amazing; so many different flavors and textures! The rocoto relleno was delicious too and so nice to be able to try a local delicacy that’s normally not vegan. We were not overly impressed by the Nashville chicken, but we would 100% recommend to try the ceviche and rocoto relleno!

We had the causa, the filled pepper and the seafood trio - everything very good.
Pros: Local dishes, all vegan, Super delicious , Nice atmosphere
Cons: a bit pricey - dishes cost between 33 and 38 PEN

As a fully vegan place offering Peruvian traditional cuisine, I really would have loved to love it, but both of the sauces of the two dishes of their daily menu were incredibly salty, which was a shame as the ingredients itself were well prepared. Also the waitress was helpful and friendly. Maybe the cook was in love, as German and French people assume, when the food is too salty. 👨🏻🍳❤️

Excellent Peruvian food! - Edit
I love all the veganized versions of traditional Peruvian dishes! I had the Chicharrón Arequipeño with Camote and Salad. It was very tasty and very satisfying. I also took the apple pie to go which was delicious! The location is in a nice and centrally located plaza, has seating outdoors and indoors. Service was very good too.

Amazing food, the anticuchos and caparinas were delicious. We tried cocktails too: Llamas encantadas and Magia negra, maybe a little too sweet, but awesome.

The Experience
- - - - - - - -
Though the restaurant wasn’t busy, we waited over 15 minutes to order as the staff chatted with others or were totally absent.
When we placed our orders, our first five choices were not available.
We placed our order and waited and waited... An entire family that arrived after us was served their food and left before we received our food an hour after arriving and choosing our food!
The food that arrived was not even what we ordered from the menu and the fries were cold—40 minutes for a cold marinated seitan patty and basket of fries (with only 3 other people in the restaurant)!
The server never checked in to address the wait time, and snickered the two times we inquired about the food. When we addressed the problem in English and Español, the manager(?) did not apologize or offer to make-up for the issue, only saying that they were short staffed.
We walked out because we exhausted our patience and faith in the service and ate at a vegetarian restaurant across the street.

Es mi lugar favorito - Edit
Conocí Lounge del Brujo en su otra sede, y fueron super importantes en mi proceso de ser vegana. Amo su comida, su sabor es increíble y hasta adictivo. Rompen todas las creencias de que la comida vegana es fea o algo así, incluso para los más carnívoros. Llevo a mis amigos ahí siempre además que hacen conciertos de música en vivo o eventos como lecturas de Tarot. Amo Lounge del Brujo
