Super nett - Edit
Wir hatten ein vorgegebenes 4-Gänge-Menü, das sehr lecker war. Vorallem die Vorspeise & die Nachspeise waren top. Das einzige, was ich kritisieren würde, war, dass es im Lokal etwas kühl war. (wir waren im Feber 2024 dort) Die Angestellten sind freundlich & bemüht & vom Preis her war alles im allen total passend.

Underwhelming - Edit
We were really excited after reading the reviews here, all the bigger was our disappointment when we got our orders. The carbonara was a tad too salty, but otherwise fine, not exciting though. The other dish had seitan, which unfortunately had a strange watery texture and with the sauce that came with it, tasted off. We sent it back and ordered a burger instead, which turned out to be only a burger patty with sauce and potatoes and green salad on the side, but no bun. No big deal, just ... odd, it tasted okay. We were tempted to try their tiramisu, but didn't wanna challenge our luck another time, so left without dessert.
Read moreSuch a pity, wasted potential. Maybe a reduced menu would allow them to focus more on the quality and taste of their dishes. Also, it might be helpful to have a description of the dishes. On the English menu at least, they only name the dishes, but there are no details as to what ingredients there are.

I'll start by telling her that it's not a fast food!! all preparations are made in an artisanal way and on the spot!
Read morethis restaurant is not touristy, that's why it doesn't find the images.
he tasted the seitan (which I remember he didn't know what it was) and without saying anything, but only at the waiter's request, as to why he left it, it was deducted from his bill and replaced with the vegan burger.
maybe he didn't realize that it's a vegan restaurant.....
I am for and support all vegan restaurants in the world!! always and only GO VEGAN

Wholesome & Delicious - Edit
Enjoyed a lovely, quiet dinner at Nirvana. I had a big bowl of vegetable soup, which was a full meal, and my husband had the tofu and stewed vegetables. We shared the chocolate and pear torta for dessert.

Valida alternative veg ma... - Edit
Il locale era piuttosto buio e con un arredamento un po' discutibile.
Read moreIl cibo non era male, ma gli spaghetti ai tartufi purtroppo erano scotti e in generale la qualità non era eccelsa.
Nel complesso era buono però si può trovare di meglio.
Forse andrebbe ridotta la scelta, comunque molto ampia, dando precedenza alla qualità. #Veganuary

Salve!!! Purtroppo noi più che accendere le 24 luci che abbiamo nella nostra piccola sala, non possiamo fare…. Potessi mettere i fari puntati sulla gente che lo desidera lo farei…. Mi dispiace tanto che non apprezzi preparazioni tutte non surgelate e soprattutto espresse… l unica cosa che mi dispiace…. Che purtroppo tanti vegani stanno chiudendo, e invece di tutelarli li criticate…. Le consiglio di dire direttamente in faccia ai titolari quando si trova male nei locali invece di fare il leone da tastiera

Excellent options and relaxing place - Edit
The spot is out of the busy streets and offers lots of seats. You are welcome by very gentle staff and guided in recommendations you can trust with a blind eye. I went few times to try other dishes and loved the roast seitan cooked with Chianti: it melted in the mouth

Favorite place in Firenze - Edit
Liked everything about the place! The food was excellent , with a lot of good choice. It was really tasty and healthy (best carbonara and tiramisu ever since vegan) and the vibe of the place was also very restful! Very pleasant within a big city as is Firenze.

So good and great prices!! - Edit
I love the big menu of all options! Everything is vegan😍🥹 The Seitan and tiramisu are so good…went back twice for it. I will say my only negative comment is the free bread they provide - it’s not that good.
Read moreIt is a little quiet but maybe later in the night it brightens up more? I’ll be back before I leave Florence..

Did not meet expectations - Edit
The truffle spaghetti was too truffle-y. You'd expect some truffle on top, but this was heavily loaded with truffle oil. Tiramisu was not what you'd expect in Italy.

because you said to me , it was all good and you even finished it!!!! we don't use truffle oil!!!!!!!! be careful what you write...
Read moreJana87!
I forgot to remind you that the traditional tiramisu you say is with eggs and has milk. ours is entirely vegan. Thank you anyway for the 3 stars

For the record, I've been vegan 6+ years now and I don't remember what 'regular' tiramusi tastes like. My comparison is related to other vegan ones I've tried. I was not by any chance dissing your business or the food in general, It was a mere expression of my personal food taste, and we are all entitled to have our own opinions/preferences.

Good food - Edit
I enjoyed the gnocchi with red pesto.
Read moreThe seitan with white beans was also good, but less exiting.
Tiramisu was a bit watery I think (though I don't remember how it should taste), but was quite light so perfect as dessert.
The place itself isn't cozy.

Tiramisu! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Edit
O M G Vegan tiramisu! 🤤 Creamy deliciousness. Cake just right, not soggy. Best I've ever had.
Read moreI also tried the carbonara with truffles. Very good. Served with vegan parmesan. (First time Ive been offered vegan parmesan in Italy, think I will have to start traveling with nutritional yeast 😉)
Great service. Sorry I will not be able to try this restaurant a few more times before leaving Florence.
Pros: Tiramisu!, So many options - all vegan!, Great service

The truffle pasta of my dreams - Edit
The ruffle tagliatelle was a hearty portion full of flavor. The grilled vegetable side dish was less successful as it was completely unadorned by seasoning, and the eggplant was slightly bitter.

Huge variety of vegan dishes. The food is solid, but there is nothing to remember.. nothing that stands out. Prices are fair, and the service is friendly.

Pros: All vegan restaurant, Lots of dishes, The Parmigiano
Cons: Food is ordinary, Bread needed more salt and wasn't fresh
Jana87!
good morning, I'm sorry that you have nothing to remember, because every preparation requires hours of work...... also I'm sorry that I also asked you if you liked it and you said "everything's fine"... .
Read morethe seitan you ate is produced by hand by us
It's impossible for a person who eats vegan not to notice it
bread is bought every day!! it is a Tuscan bread, Tuscan bread is famous because it is without salt, I also remind you that it is also free
Having said that, I'm sorry that it wasn't to your liking
have a good time

Delicious - Edit
We have been to a lot of Italy so far but this was our first vegan restaurant so it was such a relief to have vegan options like ravioli and caprese! Anyway the food was delicious and reasonably priced. I want to try all the vegan restaurants in Florence but I’m tempted to go back here because it was so nice.
Read moreTheir menu did have a note saying “if something isn’t vegan it will be marked” but then nothing was marked on the menu as not vegan? So I don’t know what that implies. Anyway it was great.
