Visit Chef Ed for an incredible meal - Edit
My partner and I split a really delicious lasagna Bolognese and a passion fruit juice. The lasagna was just how I like it with cheesy and crispy edges. The passion fruit juice was fresh and really hit the spot.
Read moreChef Ed is super nice and friendly and had some great recommendations for other places to go while in Puerto Rico.
10 out of 10 would recommend. Don't miss out on this place!
Pros: Delicious and all vegan, Super cool and friendly owner/chef
Cons: Parking might be difficult, but worth the effort!

Pasta artesanal 100% vegana y las mejores sopas - Edit
Paradoja Plant Based es tremendo rest en Río Piedras. La comida es espectacular, con ingredientes súper frescos y un sabor que no se encuentran en cualquier lugar vegano. Pidan la pasta hecha allí si pueden. El ambiente es súper acogedor,servicio es impecable. La calidad y el sabor superan por mucho el precio ¡100% recomendado!

Bueno pero caro. - Edit
Saludos. Visité el lugar con mi familia y salimos decepcionados no por la comida porque estaba muy rica pero demasiado cara para la porción que sirven. Apenas 4 raviolis pequeños por $15 el plato. Muchas personas opinan que la comida vegana es muy cara y tienen razón. Deberían mejorar en ese aspecto. Lo hacemos como una crítica constructiva.
Read morePros: El sabor es muy bueno.
Cons: El precio es muy alto para lo que sirven

Se puede ordenar todo el menú por $33 dólares por persona. No tengo la costumbre de comentar en las opiniones de los demás pero, tampoco creo que se deban dejar reviews espantosos desde la wallet… y más en un lugar que hace lo que crea esta muchacha en su espacio. Pastas artesanales, diariamente frescas con ingredientes de buenisima calidad.
Read moreSoy de la comunidad de Río Piedras y agradezco tanto la labor de estos jóvenes de traer calidad a Río piedras nuevamente. Espero que las personas que lean este review no dejen de ir a este espacio, pq piensen que es súper caro por opiniones de personas que quizás no están acostumbradas a pagar por otro tipo de comida o servicios. Hay lugares y lugares. Pero aún así repito que se puede pedir todo el menú del día por 33$ sopa ensalada y pasta fresca!
Abrir un perfil para dejar específicamente un review bajo aunque alegan que la comida es buenisima ( doy fe de que lo es) está un poco mala fé.

The best kept vegan secret - Edit
As we searched for vegan food in San Juan, we hit the jackpot with this quaint hidden cafe. The owner, Ms. Ed was a delight. Her menu changes daily which is a great concept. But the cuisine was on point! We had her pumpkin - potato soup as a starter, followed by freshly homemade fettuccine with a delightful Alfredo sauce!
Read moreOur beverages were made from local fresh fruit which finalized our great experience at Paradoja Plant-Based. We loved it!!!
Pros: Atmosphere, Meal Options, Service
