Mediocre - Edit
First of all, I want to appreciate the wide selection of all vegan dishes. There were so many options that I decided to just randomly order good-looking food.
Read moreMost of the food tasted quite nice but unfortunately it came cold to lukewarm. The staff heated everything in a microwave, but that didn't really work.
Moreover, I didn't like that the restaurant was using plastic cutlery and paper plates. In my opinion, especially a fully vegan restaurant should be aware of its ecological footprint.
The atmosphere was quite busy because the room was very small and people kept coming and going.
To sum up: The food was okay to good but too expensive for the given quality. The juice, the tiramisu, and the espresso had a good value for money, everything else was overpriced.
Maybe the restaurant would benefit from having a smaller offer to maintain good quality.
Pros: Very friendly staff, Wide selection of all vegan food
Cons: Plastic plates and cutlery, Rather expansive, Ambience

Very cute place - Edit
The place is quite small and cute but offers soo many vegan options. We were really impressed. We tried quite a few of them - some we loved very much (especially the cannoli) some were not exactly our taste. Overall I definitely would go there again.
Read moreUnfortunately they use single use plates, cutlery etc. I think it's mainly a one person show so I can understand it but it just feels so bad 😔

Excellent! - Edit
I enjoyed the food from here so very much, that I came back each day during my visit to Firenze. Everything I tried was delicious. I found the price reasonable, especially considering the quality. I highly recommend. This is one of the best food spots in Italy. Certainly the service was the best in Europe.

Strikingly Delicious - Edit
We note this takeaway-restaurant is a little out of the city-centre. But it is an easy walk or bus ride to get there, and we strongly recommend it! This vegan restaurant is particularly gluten-free friendly, and offers a very wide variety of dishes and desserts.
Read moreWe were actually overwhelmed with choice given how many excellent options they had available. The food is impressive using quality ingredients; and like many Vegan restaurants in Italy certainly appears to be genuinely home-made, likely mirroring traditional or authentic Italian cuisine, and without a doubt has real thought and heart put into the food.
It was both a joy and a delectable pleasure to find such another excellent Vegan eatery in Italy!
Pros: Authentic Food, Excellent Selection & Variety, Gluten Free Friendly

Very tasty, huge selection - Edit
We enjoyed our visit to Giumella. It was a bit of a trek to get there from the city centre but once we arrived, we were overwhelmed by the amount of different dishes on offer. It's a proper deli vibe, with the counter stuffed full of plates of food, all vegan and a lot of it gluten free too. We found everything tasty and it's nice to pick and choose what you fancy. Small downsides are that there is barely any seating (it's very small) and the toilet is through the kitchen, but otherwise we really liked it.
Read morePros: Great food, Huge selection, Kind staff
Cons: Very small, only 3 or 4 tables, Toilet only accessible through kitchen, Food heated up in microwave

Gastronomia con ampia selezione - Edit
Gastronomia vegana che offre ampia varietà di piatti, tutti molto buoni e saporiti. Il costo va a peso, quindi non lo scopri fino alla fine e personalmente pensavo venisse meno.
Read moreÈ possibile portare a casa o consumare nel locale, anche se è molto piccolo, su piatti in carta, scaldato al microonde, ma essendo una gastronomia e non un ristorante ci sta.

Ok food, a bit pricy, uncomfortable seating - Edit
The food was ok, it was nice to be able to choose from a variety of options.
Read moreIt was a pity that they do reheat the food in the microwave so not everything is heated evenly. My lasagna was cold on the inside while the cabbage was boiling :/
Also I hated that they use single use paper plates and plastic cutlery. The tables were not cleaned in between customers even though it wasn't busy and you have to go through the kitchen to the toilet which could have been cleaner.
So the whole vibe did not reflect the price of the food unfortunately and I wouldn't come back for it.
Pros: Variety of options
Cons: The cost of your plate is a suprise, Single use plates and cutlery, Dirty tables

Ottimi piatti senza glutine e vegan. Molto attenti anche se non garantiscono la non contaminazione. Cheesecake senza glutine favoloso! Ambiente piccolissimo.

Good selection - Edit
The restaurant serves a wide variety of delicious vegan food. You pay by weight, which for me added up to around 22€, but I ate a lot. There's not much seating, but as it's a bit outside the touristic city center, there weren't many customers.
Read morePros: Big selection , Delicious , Friendly staff
Cons: Little seating , Disposable plates and cutlery, A bit pricey

Great all vegan cafe/eatery - Edit
There is a ton of different options to choose from, both for main dishes and for sweets. You pay by weight so you can pick all your favourite foods. I had to taste it all.

Great selection! - Edit
It was a bit of a trek from the center of Florence, but I was so happy to find this diverse selection of options in Florence! The man working there was so friendly, and patiently explained what everything was (in English). Enjoyed everything I tried, but it might have been better fresh (it was pretty late at night and I had to microwave it when home). Really loved the polenta and the cauliflower/broccoli with “cheese”.

Bland savoury items, good cannoli - Edit
I feel similar to other recent reviews I'm seeing. I very much wanted to like it like it, left disappointed.
Read moreI really struggled to pick items for the main meal as nothing really jumped out at me. The protein items were old school vegan, not what you'd expect today (soy chicken bits, not tasty tempeh). Not particularly interesting flavours and heated up in a microwave.
Redeeming feature was the cannoli.
I would also note that this was quite pricey compared to other meals I had in Florence.

Sadly not good - Edit
We really wanted to like this place but sadly we didn’t. The portions were really small and the food was served on plastic plates with disposable cutlery. It wasn’t warm even after we asked her to heat it up. In the end we payed 30€ for two rather small plates, so if you go here check the prices first.
Read moreThe people working there were very sweet as well as the place!

Food wasn’t very good - Edit
Really wanted to like it, being all vegan. We had a variety of items, and none were very good. However, the desert was good (tiramisu and a cheesecake). Staff was very friendly. One small table outside, 3 small tables crammed inside.

Cons: Extremely limited seating

Worth travelling out of centre! - Edit
Had an incredible selection of options and since you pay by weight I was able to try about half of their offerings and none disappointed! Also tried the tiramisu and for a vegan version was pretty impressed!
