Great staff and good food - Edit
The staff was really nice and welcoming, they made me feel at home. The place is very nice and cozy. I had a merenda with oat milk matcha and hazelnut cheesecake, and I loved both!

Rich menu, friendly and sooo tasty! - Edit
This place is awesome! There is so much to choose from in the menu that I will need to come back multiple times to try as much as possible. Everything is vegan but I am certain that if you would not say that it is vegan none would recognise it because it tastes so authentic. The staff is very friendly and the prices are okay for Rome.

Great! Will be back if I'm Rome again - Edit
I’ve eaten here three times during my short visit, and the food almost never disappointed. I tried the tempeh tartare, pasta carbonara, pasta amatriciana, pinsa mortadella, and tiramisú. The only thing I didn’t fully enjoy was the pinsa — it was a bit too oily for my taste.
Read moreI’d definitely recommend the amatriciana and the tiramisú. They use Oreo cookies instead of savoiardi, and I think the combo works really well! I’ve tried several vegan tiramisú in Rome, and this one is definitely my favorite.
I’d recommend this place and would happily return if I’m in Rome again — plus, it’s in a great location near major sights like the Pantheon.

Perfect! - Edit
Pasta was perfect, the best I had in my life so far. Cheesecake not the best, but it was ok, I wouldn't buy it again.

It was ok, nothing special - Edit
Maybe it was my fault for having such high expectations, but this place definitely did not meet them. The food was ok, little bit on the bland side. The prices are quite high for food of that quality. Portions are large, but it's still portions of meh food.

Okay food for high-end prices - Edit
The place is very tidy, staff is professional and polite and they have a wide selection of food, from classical Roman, to more general dishes.
Read morePros: Clean toilet, Wide selection, Good appetizer
Cons: Most dishes were bland ( not Bad, just "okay"), Very pricy for what you get, compared to elsewhere

Nice experience - Edit
The food was pretty good, quantity was sufficient. We had a pasta and a pizza, felt a little more salt and seasonings may have been required, using chili oil helped.
Read moreDeserts were really great, tiramisu was one of the best ones, didn't even feel vegan and same goes for the carrot cake with panna (italian for cream).
The staff was very cordial and helpful.
Note: They have 2eur per person charge for cutlery.

Buddy was the best  - Edit
Fantastic experience at this all restaurant in the heart of Rome. The four cheese pizza was delicious, the service was very good, and the facility was very clean including the restrooms. You scan the menu from your phone, they also have free Wi-Fi, free water, and a place on the wall that I could plug in and charge my phone. Highly recommended.

A dash disappointing - Edit
I was stoked for a fully vegan restaurant in Rome but ended up a dash disappointed. The lasagne was dry and not very flavorful, the Roman artichoke was just alright. Many dishes on the menu sounded great so I may have just made a poor choice with my selection.

4.5, since the servers are awesome 😆 - Edit
I used to go to Rome every couple of weeks and this place became my go-to. Every. Single. Time. 😄
Read moreThe food is really quite tasty. The restaurant's atmosphere is super-cool and the restaurant is centrally located, close to the Pantheon. The servers were so nice, I feel that we could have been friends had I lived there. 😂
Looking forward to the day I get to return.

Frisch und lecker - Edit
Zunächst bestellten wir bei Buddy Veggy frisch belegte Sandwiches, die perfekt abgerundet waren - und so gut gefüllt, dass sie als Takeaway leider etwas unpraktisch waren, dennoch sehr lecker. Zum Abendessen gab es hier leckere frische Pinsa. Das Lokal bietet sehr viele vegane Optionen.
Read morePros: Umfangreiche vegane Karte, Freundliches Personal
Cons: Sandwiches nicht als Takeaway geeignet

So good - Edit
I went for breakfast and had two breakfasts because I couldn't pick. The scrambled tofu was excellent, followed by pancakes that were amazing! If I'd had enough time I would've gone for dinner as there were several things that looked great!

Great selection of vegan food! - Edit
Great spot. Really friendly and nice vibe. We had the nuggets to start which were really good. Then had carbonara which was so realistic and delicious and lasagne which could’ve done with being a bit hotter and more crispy on top but tasted delicious too. Would come back.
