good vegan food

I came here several years ago when there was an extremely limited amount of vegan restaurants in the city. It was good!

Need a kick

There is something missing of flavor in the food. The foods are not really memorable... But I heard that the desserts are excellent.

Pretty good

Everything tastes healthy and fresh here. It’s true that the food isn’t packed with flavor, but it leaves you feeling refreshed like you ate a very wholesome meal. I come here whenever I want to eat a healthy meal and can afford the crazy-high prices.

Nice presentation but somewhat lacking in flavor

The food is nicely presented but somewhat lacking in flavor. We also didn’t really enjoy the raw onions in the burger and the macaroni salad and the fact that the side salad had hot gravy on it. The carrot cake was ok but a bit bland and not very sweet. Prices are reasonable.

Caro y sin sabor

No entiendo como es tan famoso este lugar. A ver el lugar es bonito si, hay un perrito y la dueña es amable, pero la comida... deja mucho que desear. La encuentro cara y sin sabor. Los panquesitos me parecieron secos tambien ;(

Pros: El lugar es bonito, Dueña amable

Cons: Desabrido, Caro

대접받는 느낌의 요리

든든한 한 끼를 정성스레 대접받는 느낌이 드는 맛입니다. 여건만 되면 자주 방문하고 싶습니다.

Worth the hunt!

This place is a little hard to find but it is totally worth it. I had the lasagne and soft serve ice cream and both were fantastic!

OMG you have to try this place!!

I don't understand why people are calling this place expensive. Yes, it costs more than other places you could go, but the food is 100000000% worth the price. I got the veggie burger, and it is hands-down one of the best veggie burgers I have ever had. The sauce that came with it was so good, and I loved the fresh veggies and the salad. They even gave me some pickled veggies and some black bean (I think) soup. The portion size was huge. I was going to get dessert, but I was stuffed after I cleaned off my plate. I definitely need to go back to this place to try their other food and desserts. Everything sounded amazing.

Pros: All vegan, reasonably priced, amazing food,, cute interior, friendly staff

Cons: None whatsoever

A must!

We ordered eggplant Lasagna and Tempeh Katsu, absolutely delicious! Also there are many coffee choices, shakes, smoothies, teas and fantastic desserts.
I totally recommend this place 👍🏽

It was just okay

I don't get the hype. Did I order the wrong thing? After going to Monks butcher the other day, in comparison, I was expecting it to be just as tasty. I had the burger with rice and the cauliflower wings. It was alright but I wish the flavours were stronger. The icing on the carrot cake is also not very nice.

Incredible

Beautiful cosy restaurant just under the street level - so quaint! Close to the subway station. We had vegan lasagne and the cauliflower broccoli wings. Great combo to share between 2 people.

Pros: Lovely vibe, warm meal options, cakes and desserts

Absolutely delicious vegan food in Seoul!

I came a week ago for an actual sit down meal and really enjoyed it (I’ve come before just to pick up a muffin or two). I had the cauliflower wings and they were delightful. You’re presented with cutlery and a soup before you eat and then your food. I also tried the plain soft serve ice cream (I’m not a topping person). Everything was delicious though the ice cream was a little more icy than I would’ve liked. I hope to return and try more goodies! Though they do close early it can be tough when you have other obligations and are open on strange days.

all-vegan restaurant with huge portion sizes

This cutely decorated restaurant had massive portion sizes to my eyes (coming from Japan, I'm used to vegan restaurants having small portions).

I had an iced almond milk latte, Korean Omija berry lemonade, and grain salad with apples and bread.

The cakes looked massive and amazing but I didn't think I could finish a piece by myself.

I'd love to go back someday.

Pros: big portions, great taste

Cons: nothing

V Tasty

The cauliflower and broccoli wings are really good. They come with a creamy sauce that I loved. The blueberry muffin was also fantastic. Can't wait to go again when I get the chance.

I'd echo other people's comments that it's worth checking they're open before visiting. I took a taxi there on a Wednesday evening to find them shut. Was very disappointed.

Pros: Cosy little restaurant, Tasty food, Good service
