Excellent vegan food - Edit
Went here twice on our four-day trip! That’s how amazing the food was.
Read moreThe lasagna and salad were so damn good. The salad alone was perfection. Service was great. Wish I lived closer so this place could be a weekly staple. Also, just an fyi. I’m the pickiest eater so this is saying something. Loved it. Don’t miss it! They have vegan and vegetarian options. The food is perfection.

Amazing vegan and vegetarian Italian food - Edit
The food was amazing. Everything I ordered, which I ordered $100 worth of Italian food was amazing.
Read moreI plan to return again on my 1 week in Puerta Vallarta! Small restaurant and it was busy so prepare to wait for a table or expect a 2 hour dinner. Worth the wait! You can make reservations through WhatsApp but in Spanish.
Most of the dishes, we already ate half of what was on the plate so keep in mind. It was fuller plates, especially the salad. All that I show is the dressing and a little bit of lettuce.

Great Salad and pizza - Edit
First off, the interior is lovely at night very intimate and calm. We started with some wine, I got the malbec, and got the cheese board to start. To clarify, I am vegan and all the things I ordered were the VEGAN versions of the items they have on their menu. I wasn't a huge fan since it was just cheese, nuts and fruit we should have asked for more bread. Vegan cheese on its own can be a bit much sometimes. Then we split the pear and nut salad which i LOVEEEEED, it was delicious. We also split the 5terre and Jean Pierre which were pretty good, the vegan cheese melted surprisingly well. I think the 5terre was the better option out of the pizza. Overall it was a good experience, if a bit expensive.
Read morePros: Most items can be made vegan, Pera y nuez ensalada, interior is calming

Desperately seeking water on a hot walk… - Edit
And we stumbled in to this delightful place. Warning - the restaurant is several stores down from the awning. Keep walking - it’s well worth it.
Read moreMarco, the owner, got us some delicious ginger water and a lovely bread plate. Mila, his daughter, brought us a mushroom appetizer and a veggie carpaccio. Both equally great and enough for a light lunch for two.
We’re going back for a full dinner soon.
Vegetarian, but with plenty of vegan options too.
Beer & wine available too.

Melt in your mouth manicotti - Edit
I can’t believe there isn’t a line stretching around the block to get a seat at Veggitalia Pizza & Osteria Vegetariana. The food is absolutely fantastic! The manicotti is so tender and cheesy and melted in my mouth. The Spaghetti Puttanesca was full of flavor. I didn’t expect to enjoy the pear salad as much as I did.

Authentic Italian food in PV - Edit
Marco and staff are absolute rock stars delivering the most authentic plant based Italian food in the world. He makes many vegan cheeses and the pear salad is a must have every visit. Other favorites include the regina pizza, and the spaghetti putanesca. Everything on the menu is a safe bet!

Veggie/vegan Italian - Edit
recommended by a friend who lived here recently. everything was fresh and beautifully presented. The vegan cheese on the pizza is one of the better ones we’ve had. My husband, a vegan baker professionally found the tiramisu to be the best he’s ever had. Friendly service, cozy environment. Lots of wine and beer options. Glad we enjoyed our last trip dinner here!
Read morePros: Cheese on the pizza is excellent, Prices are extremely reasonable for a tourist area, vegan tiramisu!

The very best vegan pizza - Edit
The pizza here is interstellar: with sophisticated flavor palettes that are at once rich, innovative and satsifying, with vegan cheeses that are creamy and delicious. The ambiance of the restaurant also transports, feeling unique and calming in the bustle of PV. Another favorite is the lovely flavored water they offer during dinner--so refreshing!

So good we ate here twice! - Edit
Cozy little restaurant with lots of charm. Food was absolutely delicious, especially the Jean Pierre pizza and the eggplant parmesan tower (the official name of which I can’t remember). They also made a mini pizza for my toddler which was incredibly sweet. I wasn’t expecting to eat such yummy vegan pizza in Mexico but am so glad we made it a point to come here.

Special Occasion Perfection - Edit
This place is so cute and romantic. It’s also spendy! They asked right away if I’m gluten free because they bring a bread bite with pesto, tomato, and olive oil balsamic sauces. They also keep refilling the best water carafe I’ve ever had. Cinnamon water (last year when I visited it was mint water and equally as delicious). I asked the waitress her favorite vegan pasta and she suggested the lasagna, so that’s what I had. It was delicious and filling!! I also took home the vegan tiramisu. Totally amazing. Highly recommend for a special night out. They also have a market next door that is perfect for groceries you may need. I went straight to the freezer for ice cream bars!
Read morePros: Vegan knowledgeable, Great service, Romantic ambiance
