Divine!

I am so glad I ended up eating at this restaurant (it was only a back-up). There aren't a lot of vegan options, but the ones they have are delicious. The vegan cheesecake was to die for.

Paradise of taste

Truly exceptional fancy restaurant with quite a few vegan options.
The design has the luxurious feel and the food goes hand in hand with it. They offer wide range of international cuisine. Staff is helpful and will gladly explain what the meals are (some names can be somewhat intimidating for an ordinary person). Coffees can be made with soy or almond milk for extra price. The restaurant provide tasting menu and a nice wine selection.
Some items can be ordered as takeaway.
This restaurant is made for special occasions, but is a bit pricey. Still more than worth the visit!

Pros: Great food, Gorgeous interior, Friendly staff

Cons: A bit pricey

Getting better and better

We first went here when they opened and there was a big of confusion among the waitresses as to what was vegan. Since then the place has got better and better. Great presentation, food, professional stuff and way more vegan food. On the pricier side, but you get what you pay for.

Pros: Classy, Professional Staff, Super food

The fancy vegie place

Etnosvet is definitely THE fancy vegetarian restaurant in Prague. I have been there three times and always had great time. Their food is super delicious, homemade ice teas in various interesting flavours, perfect mistakeless staff. Can only recommend!

Pros: gourmet food, atmosphere, absolutely great waitress

Cons: a bit too pricey

You should go there!

We ate there vegan menu and it was just amazing!! Our waitress Dana was sweet and friendly and the food was incredible. A special recommendation to salmond style vegan bagel - I don't know how they made it, but it was fantastic. Price was very decent for such tasty and beautiful meals. Atmosphere at the back yard terrace was lovely.

Pros: vegan menu with several good options, cute back ya

excellent food - must try while in Prague

Vegetarian and vegan options, this restaurant is excellent. The variety and flavors are superb; nice/fine-dining type place but no dress code. Service can be a bit abrupt (at least when I first arrived) but my server was excellent and provided excellent recommendations, as I was so undecided on what to try! I had the 'scallop' starter which was actually with portobello mushrooms - it was excellent! As was my fried sushi. I would definitely come back here - too bad I'm out of time for the short duration of my trip!

a fortunate musunderstanding

our waiter misunderstood us, bringing only one main course. which "forced" us to order another starter and main, and to be honest that was a fantastic incident! we totally recommend the tartar, the scallops and wellington, some of the best food we've ever had! The table next to us was raving about the ganache and the pasta flambeed in a wheel of cheese looked impressive! the homebrewed beer and the iced teas are also worth mentioning, all in all, a fantastic experience!

okay

I don't know why but I felt a bit uncomfortable in this restaurant, one of the staff kept rolling his eyes and tutting at what seemed to be a new member of staff. The food I ordered was really nice but not worth the price, apart from the beetroot soup (never again!)

Pros: smart atmosphere , food was inventive

Cons: 1 vegan starter option and 2 mains

Outstanding!

The food was fantastic. We had the watermelon and quinoa appetizer and the coconut tempura appetizer. We highly recommend them. For the main course we had the miso soba noodles and the Peking "duck". They were also amazing. Another plus...the staff was very friendly. Overall, a great experience!

Amazing experience!!!

I loved this restaurant! Seriously one of the best foodexperiences ive ever had. Delicious, modern and well presented food! Its not all vegan but that doesent matter when the veganoptions are as good as this. Earlier reviews says its a bit expensive but i thought the opposit, at least when you think of the quality of the food. Me and my man had a 3 course dinner, with a bottle of wine, a lemonade and sparkling water... 70 euros, which in my opinion is well worth it! The staff was great too, and the atmosphere very cosy. I really recommend this place!

Only 2 vegan options as main meal

I went with my boyfriend because of the good reviews in other forums. In their web they say that they have a vegetarian and a vegan restaurant. One next to the other.

The vegetarian restaurant only has 2 vegan options as main meals. And I couldn´t have any of them, so we had to go to the vegan "restaurant", wich is a little bistro with fast food. We ended up having a burguer, although we were looking for something different.

It would be nice if the had more vegan options in the restaurant for the people that don´t want fast vegan food.

Pros: Friendly staff

Cons: Only a few vegan options

Thank you for your review and opinion. As mentioned before, our restaurant is vegetarian with few vegan meals. Vegan bistro behind the corner offers daily menu which is really delicious, it is not a fast food. Best regards Etnosvět

Great food, great service, not many vegan options!

It's an awesome restaurant but the vegan options are very limited. The staff is very friendly and helpful though. For drinks, try the aperol with ginger! so good :)

Good quality food

The food was well prepared and tasty but I'm not still sure if wines were really vegan or not. Waiters and other staff were nice but I was a little disappointed because there weren't any desserts at all and the vegan selection of other dishes was rather small too.

Price was ok compared to many other fine dining restaurants (portions were quite large)

Pros: Nice athmosphere, Tasty

Cons: Lacks vegan desserts, Not so many options on menu

definitely worth a visit

we just went there at a Sunday evening. not much guests there, but very good staff. they where friendly, professional and everybody's speaking English. Price seems moderate for what you get there. we can definitely recommend the fried vegetables with different dips - WOW. Never had such a good appetizer... BTW: lot of vegan choices and the staff also created a vegan dessert, because there was non on the menue

Pros: professional, friendly staff, enough vegan options

Cons: Jan'16 no vegan dessert on the menue (but ask for,

quality food in nice setting

The setting is fancier - a great spot for a nice dinner. I loved the mock Peking duck, and peanut satay the best. Vegetarian restaurant with vegan options clearly marked. A few vegan options for both appetizers and mains. Just lacking a vegan dessert.

Excellent

Etnosvet is one of the fancier vegetarian restaurants in the city, and the price reflects this. It's similar to Maitrea in that the interior is lovely and the menu is global, but the food is much better here. Vegan options are marked. We shared the coconut tempura to start, and it was a delicious dish. There was veg and tofu in a really light batter and three dipping sauces, all of them good. It was enough for two of us to share. My partner had the vegetarian wellington, which he said was good but small. I had the vegan mock duck pancakes, and they were delicious! There was plenty of food, and again, the dipping sauces were spectacular. The service was excellent: friendly, but unobtrusive. And the restaurant is big and spacious, with a really relaxing atmosphere. It's expensive for Prague, and closer to UK prices for a meal, but definitely worth it for a special occasion.

Minus a point for having no vegan desserts!

Pros: Delicious food, Excellent service, Lovely atmosphere

Cons: Expensive by Prague standards
