Very nice

Lovely unhurried lunch with attentive and friendly service. We had the smokey white bean dip and leek fritters which were excellent. The flavours are innovative, so it’s great to try something different. The portions are quite small and it’s expensive, but perhaps that’s to be expected given its proximity to Oxford street.

Gorgeous place to eat

This is one of the best vegan/veggie restaurants in London. Easily. The food is incredible, most of it is vegan apart from a few dishes that have cheese. Highly recommend trying the discovery menu.

Sunday lunch

We had the Discovery Menu for Sunday lunch which included a set menu of 4 courses. The food was quite rich and I struggled to finish everything but the flavours were lovely. The service and ambience is also great.

Gorgeous spot, very vegan friendly

Loved the vibe here - a spot of coziness in the slightly overwhelming area of Oxford Circus. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, and the staff were warm and attentive.
Perfect place for a more fancy (but good value) meal.

Pros: Originality of dishes, Cosy atmosphere, Flavour of food

Cons: Booking required

Mixed feelings

Between three of us we tried the tasting menu plus some dishes from the a la carte menu. Portion sizes were random, some extremely small. The first round of the tasting menu was probably the best, everything thereafter failed to have as great an impact. Our meal turned out to be very expensive but I do appreciate that they don’t rely on meat analogues.

Fine vegan dining

We had the whole menu between four of us. Couldn’t choose. Fantastic artistry - this is culinary art

Beautiful new menu

The team have continued to work on their new menu and the dishes have got better and better. Pak choi, mushrooms and aubergine were our favourites. The owner also came out to say hello which was a nice touch.

Poor customer service and underwhelming food

I had the 7 course tasting menu and was rather disappointed. Many of the dishes lacked any flavour which salt and pepper could have fixed. The atmosphere very pretentious and the staff didn't even tell us what dishes we were eating. I enjoyed the wine selection and a few dishes and I liked the creativity of some of the vegetables and flavour combinations (idk which ones because they didn't tell us 😅). If you want a great vegan tasting menu, go to Naifs!

Amazing

Some of the best food I’ve had in London! I can really recommend the white bean dip and the crispy beetroot bao, as well as the salted caramel chocolate mousse desert, which were all to die for. The smokey aubergine starter and the blackened cauliflower were also really good, and my parents enjoyed the non-vegan truffle brie.
I also love that they label the non-vegan options instead of the usual other way around. Gluten free options are also clearly marked. The prices are fair in my opinion, and I love that you can choose from small or large plates.
Sadly, there was no coffee machine, but they did offer to run to a close-by Pret a Manger to get us some, so great service!

Pros: Mostly vegan options, Extremely tasty, Fair prices

Cons: No coffee machine, The back tables are situated a bit dark

Vegan-friendly, small portions

Most dishes vegan, tasty quality food, yet portions way too small given the prices. Kids menu is just same as main menu, dishes not really what children like. Friendly service.

Pros: Friendly service

Cons: Small expensive portions, Child menu disappoints

Pretty swanky restaurant

We had a really nice experience here. The service was very attentive and friendly. Food was great and pretty unique! The prices are a bit steep but this is a good place to go if you fancy a swanky dinner. Portions could be a bit bigger though!

Pros: Some pretty unique options , Very flavourful food

Cons: Pretty pricey

We really enjoyed our brunch at Tendril - highly recommended

Great brunch with surprising dishes, fantastic team, decoration would need some more inspiration (looked a bit like Xmas). We will come back soon! Prices are very reasonable.

Mostly vegan restaurant

This is a great restaurant. The tasting menu has almost every dish vegan and the remaining 2/3 can be made vegan. Good wine list as well.

Pros: Great quality/quantity/price, Almost everything is vegan or can be made vegan

Cons: NO CONS!

Lovely meal

Had a great meal here, everything was delicious and they were very accommodating of my friend’s slightly niche intolerance (I had informed them beforehand). The tasting menu was reasonably priced. My only wish was that there had been slightly more food, even if that was just more bread — several people were still a bit hungry, which shouldn’t be the case after 5 courses!

Innovative, well-priced 90%+ vegan

Went here with my vegan partner, we both absolutely loved it.

I loved the beetroot bao the most, I’ve had hundreds of baos in Asia / London and this was my favourite! We also loved the orange crème brûlée dessert.

The dessert menu was all vegan and there were so many options, it was very well priced for the effort that went in (£6.50 for the crème brûlée).

We will definitely be back, flavours tasted like a Michelin starred vegan place we have been to before. We also loved tasting innovative dishes

Pros: New flavours , Inspiration from various cuisines , Well-priced

Tasteful in every sense of the word

Went last night for the first time. It won’t be the last. Had the tasting menu at the early evening reduced price which was really good value and allowed plenty of time to get to the theatre. Loved most courses and enjoyed all but the one they substituted to accommodate my allergies. Sophisticated food, with sometimes unusual combinations, served quickly by waiters who make you feel welcome, in a space that’s has a simple downplayed elegance and is very comfortable and cosy without being overcrowded.

Pros: Almost entirely vegan. , Fine dining at half the price., Relaxed atmosphere.

Good food and good service

A welcoming restaurant with good service. The food was excellent. I would suggest having some additions with the main course as they are not that large.. I would encourage the restaurant to become fully vegan - ditch the dairy!

Pros: Friendly and professional service, Imaginitive dishes, Well prepared food

Cons: Not fully vegan

Great “mostly Vegan” set menu

Went there with a friend & this all veggie & mostly vegan restaurant (1 dish can be made with dairy cheese) is fast becoming a favourite vegan (or mostly) restaurant in London. Service is very good too - we had to catch a show & needed to hurry them
a bit & they dealt with that well, bringing us the final course & bill at the same time as asked & almost immediately! Worth going especially for a special night out.

Pros: All vegan save 1 optional dish with dairy cheese, Not so expensive for what it is & location, Great service
