Ottimo! - Edit
Se siete a Bologna dovete andarci, ma ricordatevi di prenotare perché potreste non trovare tavoli liberi.

È stata veramente una cena piacevole e soddisfacente tanto che il mio uomo onnivoro mi ha chiesto di ritornarci.
Pros: Tutto vegano, Dolci

Really nice food! - Edit
We had the triangles, the burrito, the unfried vegetables and the creme brulée. The first two were really great. We took the vegetable side dish because we thought that the main would not be enough, but we were not that hungry, so it was a bit much. The desert was nice.

Quite good, but could be better - Edit
The restaurant itself has a really nice atmosphere and the menu is inventive and something different. The presentation is beautiful and the dishes tasted nice, although it was not spectacular. After all the great reviews, we expected a bit more but it was just standard, to be honest. The dishes itself were not huge so we ordered a side dish as well.
Read morePros: Varied and inventive, Nice atmosphere

Proof that vegan food doesn't have to be boring (and is more then fast food) - Edit
We went here for lunch and we would definitely go back for dinner next time we're in Bologna.
Read moreIt's a lovely restaurant located just outside the buzz of the city centre. The outdoor terrace, were we sat, has a lovely vibe. Friendly staff.
Most of all I enjoyed the menu and the food in general. It was difficult to choose what to eat because it all sounded so lovely. And the food was de-li-cious. Made with care. The plates looked beautifull.
I get a bit bored with vegan fast food places but this place shows that you can have an affordable vegan meal that is joyfull and inspiring.
Would recommend!

Good food and place - Edit
Unfortunally I was in a hurry and I had to order to take away so my pictures doesn’t do justice to the taste. The restaurant was full with locals for dinner and it was just a Tuesday for I guess it is quite popular. All the dishes looked delicious and well presented. I was amazed by the amount of waiters, I huess the service must be good too. Since I had a need for fingers food, I was recommended to take one of the burritos and it was delicious. It was fast too (for not being a fast food restaurant and being full).

Lovely Vegan food - Edit
We had the Gnocchetti and Beyond Burger, with Creme Brule for dessert. All very delicious, no complaints about our food! Menu is very varied, but some things seem quite small for how much they cost. Personally, I think what we ordered was filling and better value for money than some other items. Lots of people were also ordering the Avocado in fiore, so I definitely want to try next time we visit!

Central and unmissable for a very special dinner for a special occasion (=quite expensive). The vegan mascarpone is home made and the best I have tried.

Amazing food! - Edit
This is one of the nicest vegan restaurants I’ve been to. The service was great, some of the portions can be smaller but it depends what you order. We ordered something as an appetizer, 2 “main courses” and then 2 desserts. Everything tasted delicious and the prices are quite good given the ambience and delicious food. Highly recommend it!

Very nice - Edit
We had a lunch at Botanice Lab a few weeks ago, and enjoyed it. Portion sizes were pretty small, I have to say, so we were happy we had ordered extra potatos. I'd say this is not really high-end vegan cuisine, more like upper-middle. But that's actually preferable for me.

Best Restaurant in Bologna - Edit
A local vegan activist said this was her favorite restaurant. I came on an April weekend, off season for tourism, yet the place was packed. I almost didn't get a table because I didn't make a reservation in advance. That's how popular the place is. The food is first rate. Try the potato pastry or the green autumnal triangles. Very unique dishes!

If you want to impress your friend, it's the right place - Edit
I went to eat at Botanica Lab during a short visit to Bologna with a friend of mine. It is nevereasy to be the only vegan eater on a holiday, but in this case, I was sure the experience would be excellent.
Read moreWe were both impressed by the taste and presentation of the food! Unfortunately, we were in a hurry and only had the homemade Ravioli and Gnocchi, while for dessert, we tried the Mascarponcino (which was incredible and took me back to my childhood) and the Mango
Cheesecake.
When I return to Bologna, I will definitely go back. As a vegan cook, I can't resist trying different restaurants in the surrounding area, but also getting served and enjoying super tasty plant-based food. I also recommend it if you want to impress someone who is a bit sceptical about this type of cuisine.
Thank you for a great experience
Pros: Delicate and Tasty food, Beautiful location , Great house wine

Piatti buoni e belli da vedere - Edit
Consiglio questo ristorante per il menù interessante e la cura nei dettagli. I piatti sono stupendi alla vista e anche buoni - forse leggermente insipidi, ma personalmente preferisco meno sale al troppo salato. Le porzioni sono discrete ma comunque soddisfacenti. Il ristorante in sé è molto bello, l'atmosfera è rilassata ma chic. Personale molto gentile e servizio rapido anche al sabato sera. Consigliata la prenotazione.

A treat - Edit
I loved this place. The menu was small but there was enough variety. We got an anterior to split as an appetizer. The deserts were amazing too! Be sure to make a reservation. They were turning people away.
