Deserves 5 stars - Edit
The food here is to die for! Incredible vegan/veg options and the staff/owner is very knowledgeable. They even label the menu to show what can be made vegan. The food was absolutely delicious and it was very beautiful.

The best Vegan dinner i’ve had in months - Edit
If you are in fortuna this place is a must just call ahead if you can the place is packed if ask for the vegan options you will hit the jackpot. The chef sat in our table and told us that he has been working on his recipes for about 8 years. We ended up ordering one of each of the vegan dishes to try them all. The Won Ton and the Tofu salteado are espectacular and the rest of the dishes were simply extraordinary. The chef’s smile when he sees his customers enjoying is probably the most honest proof of the passion and love he puts in his recipes.

Authentic Peruvian + Fusion - Edit
Super local "hole in the wall" vibe. It feels so authentic. Being new to Peruvian dishes, our mouths did a happy dance!! HIGHLY recommend: Yuquitas Con Quinoa (app) and Tacu Tacu Vegetariano (main).
Read moreSide note: the owner honestly is just the best. He makes you feel like he is sharing Peruvian culture. Very similar to when you become vegan and you can't wait to share with everyone awesome food/new way of life. He is so so cool!
Pros: Owner/server very accommodating, Most dishes can be made vegan, Big portions

Flavorful vegan options and friendly service - Edit
We really enjoyed the vegan options we ordered here. We had the crunchy tofu saltado and the yucca fries topped with a flavourful quinoa salad (you could taste lemongrass in it: so good!). Very happy we tried it out. Note that the wantons can't be made vegan (there's egg in the wrapper -- but the host tells you this).

Unique and super vegan-friendly - Edit
The owner of the place is putting so much effort into accommodating vegans. They offer great options, and even have a vegan wantan-dough. The tofu was also super delicious! Definitely try it out when you’re in town!

Loved it!! - Edit
Literally made an account for the first time just to give a review because they deserve it. It’s like a cute little hole in the wall type place but an absolute gem. The food was insanely delicious, presented so beautifully too. We also had the nicest server who was working so hard because they were understaffed and like pulled everything off so well. It’s really good food and worth waiting if you have to ... they have LOTS of vegan options and are SUPER helpful with all questions. They know what’s up. It was superb... I have to come back to La Fortuna because they didn’t have the vegan Kalu Wantan and I seriously will haha.

Excellent ceviche - Edit
When we arrived there were no Tofu or quinoa left, the waiter kindly went buying one from the store in order to satisfy our needs. The food is exceptionally good (the ceviche is excelle and it changes from the vegan food that you eat in other restaurant) and the waiter was super nice and very cheerful. I would recommend to anyone in la fortuna to go there.

Good veggie options - Edit
We had delicious vegetarian food here during our visit in Feb 2020. Service is a little slow, but they understand vegan and veggie food, so a definite must-try place.

super interesting mix of Peruvian/Chinese food! - Edit
We stumbled upon this location while walking through La Fortuna and saw that it was definitely a hot spot so decided to try it! They were able to make nearly every dish vegan so that was amazing since they are not fully vegan. It isn't the "healthiest" but it certainly satisfies that chinese food craving😄staff was lovely as well!
Read morePros: Many vegan options!, Super friendly staff!, Yummiest smoothies!
Cons: Not fully vegan, womp.
