They basically only have one vegan option (that you can choose either with squash-rice or beans-rice), but it's a very good one! It's nice that for once nothing is deep fried. Cute place.

Pros: Good food, Friendly staff, Cute place

Cons: Few vegan options

tasty food!

There is only one option but honestly really good and easy to choose! I had the option to chose between rice with beans or rice with squash and took the squash!

Nice healthy bowl

There is one vegan/veg option. Was very fresh and healthy but not many options to go multiple times. Enjoyed the plate with extra spicy sauce. Pretty large portion and plenty of plant based protein. 40k for the bowl.

Really good food

I really enjoyed the vegan bowl here today. Rice and beans, plus plantains, grilled veggies, salad, and falafels, and a spicy sauce.

You can pay with a card. I paid $77000 pesos for two bowls and a tip. $27 CAD.

Healthy, tasty food

We arrived into Cartagena late Sunday evening and were pleased that this place was open until 9pm. Just two vegan options - rice bowl + beans or + squash. We chose beans. The bowl was delicious. Lots of fresh and tasty toppings. It was filling with just a light dressing on top. Despite the chaos of the old town outside the place was calm and the owner(who spoke English) very friendly.

Pros: Healthy and tasty vegan food, Simple menu clear options , Filling food

Cons: In a slightly chaotic part of town!

Tasty bowl

Great location, veggie bowl available - you choose your based - either rice with beans or rice with squash.
Enjoyed the falafel (not deep fried), plantain and vegetables were also good.

Delicious bowl!

I had the veggie bowl with beans for takeaway. Everything was so delicious and flavourful and the staff were SO nice, they even thanked us for eating their food and you could tell they really meant it. We could see the women making it fresh, and my only complaint was that I should have bought 2 portions as I wolfed the first lot down so quick! Very good value for money.

Simple, effective

One vegan bowl lunch option here where you have to choose between beans and butternut squash for your rice base.

Nice and fresh but lacking in sauce/moisture. The falafel-style patties had a great texture and it was nice to have something slightly different.

We liked the setting/atmosphere and the piña juice was rather nice. The price was also pretty good at $25k for the main and $6k for a juice.

Almuerzo a buen precio

Lo mejor fue el precio y que el plato tiene un buen tamaño. Como es un lugar pequeño, falta mayor variedad en su carta, pero se entiende. Buena atención!

Pros: Comida sabrosa, Buena atención , Buen precio

Cons: Poca variedad vegana, Un poco caluroso, pero tenían ventiladores

Perfect lunch spot!

We had fantastic vegan bowls with beans, rice, homemade falafels, plantains, grilled veggies, salad, and homemade hot sauce. They were hearty, fresh and delicious.

Great bowl

I've never been a big fan of bowls but this one might change it. It was incredibly delicious and freshly prepared. The hot sauce was good, too.

Vegan optie beschikbaar

Snel klaar, goede prijs, vers, maar basic. Een lekkere vinaigrette zou het gerecht helemaal top maken.

Pros: Bowl zelf samenstellen, Vegan optie beschikbaar, Goede prijs: 23.000 COP

Cons: Basic, lekkere vinaigrette ontbreekt

Great option in Getsemani

Simple and delicious food in Getsmani area. Simplicity is the deal here! Eventhough veggie meal was very simple everything was so fresh and tasty. I would definitely recommend this place if around the area. Food is also very affordable.

Refreshing!

I loved the meal. An assortment of greens and protein. Tasty juice options too. I’d go back. We sat at the window and got to watch the street activities. Fun experience. The staff were really friendly too. Portion was good. I needed a little help from my spouse to finish it all.

Healthier option

Friendly. Good price. Smaller portion. Not sure if the meat & veggies are cooked on the same grill tho..
