Good food. Great prices

Pretty much entirely vegan menu. Lots of options. The seitan dishes were really great. Nice soup too. The old couple that run the place are very sweet.

Good

The restaurant is pretty and cozy.
Tried a couple of dishes and they didn’t disappoint. If it’s cold outside do not forget to try their vegan house wine or the herbal/natural tea. #Veganuary

Simply amazing!

When we've been there only vegan options were available - and it was a lot!
So hard to to decide because of such a lot of tasty options!
The food tastes amazing, you have to try this to know what I mean.
Surely one of the best I've ever been to.

The staff (an older couple) is very lovely!

Pros: Many vegan options, all amazing , Super friendly staff, Price is very fair

Very simple but sooo delicious!

This was one of the best places we've eaten in Florence. It doesn't look very fancy and the food was quite simple, but wow - it was amazing! The whole menu is vegan, also the Tiramisu is now vegan. Highly recommended!

Pros: Very delicious, Good service

Cons: Not very fancy (but who cares, if it's that good;)

Really tasty

We‘ve been there twice because we liked it a lot. If you don‘t speak Italian it‘s better to use a dictionary to avoid misunderstandings because the owner doesn‘t really speak English.

Grandios

Direkt um die Ecke von unserem Hotel haben wir dieses wunderbar entspannte Restaurant entdeckt. Das meiste auf der Karte hat allen geschmeckt, und das ist gar nicht so einfach bei unseren Kindern (7 und 10 Jahre), wenn es sich nicht um Pizza oder Burger handelt. Wir haben es sehr genossen und kommen gern noch einmal wieder, so lange wir in Florenz sind.

Pros: fast alles vegan

The food was A-ma-zing

We had the Truffel Tagliatelle and the Ravioli.
It was so good! It says in the menu that everything is vegan except the items with the non-vegan mark, of which there are non on the menu. So everything is vegan. Apple and pear-chocolate pie for dessert. So good.

Pros: Everything is vegan, House wine comes in big glasses

Cons: There are none

Horrible experience

Long story short, when we wanted to pay, the lady (which I guess was the owner) yelled at us for not understanding that the menu of the day couldn't be shared. I have never received a treatment like that at a restaurante, I left the place crying. On top of that, the food was expensive for the little portion I received: 7,50 for 2 and a half slices of eggplant with a salty salad of lettuce. The place is supposed to be peaceful but this woman was nervewracking. Glad not to ever come back.

Amazing!

Very good textures and presentation of their meals, eventhough the menu doesn't properly describe the options. We tried the blueberry tagliollini and the seitan filet, both of which were amazing. For deserts, we tried the apple pie and tiramisu and a soy cappuccino. Delicios! Would recommend

Pros: Clearly marked options, Good price-quality ratio

Loved this place!

We had a short stop in Florence on our way to Siena and we ate here both times. We ordered a bunch of dishes but our favorite was the carbonara! We especially love the vegan shredded cheese that came with it. The soups were also really good. Highly recommend this place!

Pros: Cheap lunch menu , Close to train station , Vegan cheese

Favorite restaurant ever!

This restaurant in Florence was easily the best place that we ate in in Italy. The menu is huge and they have a lot of vegan options (including vegan cheese!). Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! My father couldn't believe the carbonara pasta didn't contain eggs or milk. The dessert was also awesome. The staff was so friendly and since we arrived late we were the last ones in but they didn't rush us or anything. The place itself is super cute and Instagram-friendly. We ordered 3 entrees, 3 seconds, 2 thirds, 2 desserts, bottled water and drinks and payed a little over 70EUR.

Pros: Great vibe, Amazing food and very good prices, Friendly staff

Disappointing

Read some great reviews of this restaurant so we decided to try it out. We specifically asked the waiter for recommendations on what was best. It’s not that the food was bad, but just so very bland. Uninteresting and without much flavor. More like dukkha than nirvana!

Pros: No worries about hidden meat or broths

Cons: Disappointing

Amazing!

The food was great; the truffle pasta was absolutely to die for and the tofu cheesecake which was probably the best I've ever had! The service and the space were okay too.

Pros: Delicious food, Tofu cheesecake, Low prices

Cons: Location could be better

Tasty

We had the truffled spaghetti and the tiramisu it was tasty for sure both having gorgeous creamy texture but portions were not big and in each the truffle/ coffee taste was extremely subtle
