Delicious Vegan Options in Central Seoul Location

Nirvana has a menu page of vegetarian items. The staff ask if you are vegan and prepare the dish with vegan ingredients. We ordered 3 different dishes, and all had unique and delicious flavors. The samosas were also hot and flavorful. Located on Insadong cultural street. Staff speaks English and are welcoming and friendly. Highly recommended.

Pros: Variety of vegan options, Warm and appealing atmosphere

Indian food in Seoul

Cosy restaurant with a calm atmosphere. Owner was very friendly.
Quite a few veggie and vegan options on the menu, the owner was keen to take requests (e.g no chilli!) to ensure we enjoyed our meal.
Was lovely to sit by the window and watch the world go by.

Pros: Peaceful atmosphere, Owner speaks English, Variety of vegan options

Comfort Food

Indian food is our happy place so after 10 days of Korean food this was a very welcome change. Fantastic dahl and channa masala with naan bread. Very welcoming staff. Owner is Indian and owns several other restaurants, very friendly staff. Good playlist too!

Pros: A few vegan options, More vegetarian options (inc dairy)

Cons: Expensive

Vegan-Friendly Indian Food

5 min walk from Anguk Subway Station Exit 6, located within Insadong Shopping Street. Halal and vegetarian/vegan-friendly Indian eatery! Contains alliums. The menu clearly labels vegan options with a green V, and the staff is clear about what veganism means. There are 9 vegetarian curries, 4 of which are vegan by default. The staff is also happy to advise on how we can customise vegan dishes, e.g. replacing cottage cheese with peas / mushrooms / potatoes / tofu in the palak paneer. They also have weekday lunch sets, couple sets, family sets, etc. Nice setting but reasonably priced. Heard that they are preparing a big vegan menu!

- Palak Paneer (Veganised)
- Channa Masala
- Tandoori Roti
- Veg Biryani
- Mix Veg Bhaji

The food was delicious and the service was incredible!

The owner made sure that all my food was vegan, and was really excited about adding a new vegan only menu. Really want to go back!

LOVE

I loved their food so much! They have 3 vegan appetizer items - papadum, samosa, veg pakora - and their garden salad also can be made vegan. Also they had about 6 vegan curry options. I fell in love with their samosa!!! It was spicy and flavorful. Their curries were also amazing. Nice atmosphere and super friendly staffs.

Good value lunch

For 11,000, the lunch set is a solid vegan lunch option! Manager was very happy to make other veggies dishes vegan. He also said he is happy to make larger vegan menu if he had enough vegan customers. My curry was just spicy enough to be acceptable. I asked for it spicy

Full of flavour

Lots of options available for vegetarians and really tasty. Easy to use and can be ordered on shuttle easily and picked up. I really enjoyed the butter masala paneer and it was even better for 2nds the next day for lunch.

Pros: Easy to order , Filled with excellent flavour and lots of choices, Really nice takeaway packaging

Cons: Expensive , Closes for take away at 8.30

Cute place quirky owner

Decent selection of vegan choices. The wait staff were well versed on veganism and asked me if I was despite my husband ordering tandoori chicken. The owner cane and chatted to me about veganism and made sure to tell me not to eat the naan my husband ordered. The channa masala was delicious and filling with rice.

I lost all willpower.

This was honestly one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve ever had. The hospitality was beyond anything I’ve ever seen. On top of that they were phenomenal about catering to dietary restrictions. Right off the bat they asked if anyone in our group was vegan. When I said that I was, he walked me through the menu, and even offered to alter other dishes or to make me dishes that aren’t on the menu. For my brother (who is celiac) they changed out the oil and fried something just for him so there would be no cross contamination.

The food was so amazing that I didn’t stop eating till I felt sick. I lost all willpower because the food was freaking phenomenal. I could go on forever about how much I loved this restaurant. They deserve all the love. I would give this 5 stars if I could.

Friendly place & yummy food

The coconut cream curry with vegetables was a bit spicy & really yummy.

The owner said many vegan people eat here, so he's thinking about adding some vegan dishes in the future. Also he helps you with changing meals & making them vegan😄

Free wifi & credit cards are accepted.

Pros: Vegan declaration on menu, Owner is friendly & speaks English , Non-vegan dishes can be made vegan if you ask

Cons: Maybe a bit expensive

Not great

4 marked vegan curry options - Tarka Daal (13,500), Chana Masala (13,500), and two mixed veg type curries - one with a tomato sauce and one with coconut (15,000). We had the two mixed veg curries plus rice and roti.

The curries lacked sauce and flavour - just a lot of veg! Quite disappointing, and although it wasn’t bad, it is one of the lower quality Indian restaurants I have been to.

Owner is foreign and speaks perfect English. Interior is nice, but the food isn’t good and the price is a little high.

Cons: Below average food

A nice Indian meal

The samosas were a bit hard and bland. But the chickpea curry was tasty and the rice was excellent.

Pros: Menu has vegan dishes labelled., English speaking staff.

Cons: Limited options for vegans.

Best Indian restaurant in Asia

I loved this place. I went there by myself to check it out. Loved it so much that over the next two weeks I went there four more times, with some friend or friends. All my friends loved it and went multiple times with their friends. Great food, great service, great ambience, great location. Next time I visit Seoul, I will go there several times. You have to try this place.

Pros: Food taste, Service, Ambience

Cons: little pricey but not much, but worth it.
