Tasty experience - Edit
I loved loved loved it here. The must try is definitely the labneh and bread bag. Such an awesome combo. Labneh is creamy and a bit tart with a generous serving of olive oil. Breads are super fresh. I also had the cauliflower - massive portion, I would be well content with just the labneh. Would recommend to go as a group and share, however I did not have that option. Service is awesome, really such amazing staff. Great place for some kind of celebration, especially since price point is a little bit higher, but totally worth it. Finish with the mint tea after the feast😄Would give 5 stars (or more) if possible

Best meal on our European Tour - Edit
Great atmosphere. A lovely welcome at the door and personalised menu. There was a real happening vibe in the restaurant. The seats we had were overlooking the kitchen area so we were able to see all the meals being prepared. The chefs chatted to us and told us what they were making.
Read moreWe had good advice on how much to order and which items were vegan (all items on the menu are vegan except for the items under the title ‘best butcher in the city’. We were assured that as the chef was vegan there was no cross contamination because they took things seriously.
The variety of vegetable dishes was excellent. It was hard to choose which ones we were going to have! We were full to bursting afterwards!!
The ‘Sage burning into grilled potato’ dish was fascinating to watch being prepared and delicious to eat!
We enjoyed an entertaining evening. Thank you also for the digestifs (chillie and aniseed liqueurs). We wouldn’t hesitate to go back and have been raving about it to all our friends.
Pros: Fantastic vegan choice, Entertaining atmosphere , Knowledgable and fun staff

Delicious food with plenty of vegan options - Edit
We went here 2 nights in a row because we were so impressed! I had read all the happycow reviews and chose it as they also serve meat (my partner is not vegan.)
Read moreStaff were super friendly and it had a nice interior. The vegan labneh was INCREDIBLE! I wasn’t going to order it until the waitress confirmed it was vegan. The chef is vegan (was formerly a butcher) and wanted to open a 100% vegan restaurant but this can be difficult in Hungary apparently. The oyster mushrooms with polenta and the charred aubergine were also amazing. Highly recommend!!
Pros: Vegan labneh is a must try , Alot of choices , Different sized dishes so you can try a few
Cons: Tables on the floor are a little bit small, Music was a little bit loud at times

Tasty but super small dishes - Edit
Food is tasty and unique but expensive and small dishes. Even though they say it's sharing dishes - its too small in our opinion. Vibe is awesome as well. Staff were super friendly.

Oh so good! - Edit
Not fully vegan but really celebrates veggies. All veggie options are vegan by default but then there’s a meats section.
Read moreV friendly service. Loved the mushrooms! Loved the playfulness of the menu. It is a little pricey but comparable to London restaurants. I’d want the chilli plate to be cheaper to allow us to add variety in flavours to the cauliflower for example. Deffo get the bread basket to soak up all the amazing flavours.
Pros: Celebrates veggies, Varied menu, Veggie dishes vegan by default
Cons: Serves meat

Excellent meal in the city - Edit
These were obviously created by a chef! The way they were plated and the thought that went into every dish was evidently created by a professional! The labneh is a must try, if you’re only getting one thing, get it!

Too expensive - Edit
Es un lugar con un sello único, nunca había visto uno así donde todo lo que ofrecen es a las brasas. Personalmente me faltaron opciones vegetarianas con proteínas, por lo que si o si debes pedir más de un plato. Es muy caro también para el tamaño de los platos.

Quite tasty but pricy for Budapest - Edit
Goli Restaurant had a lot of vegan options. I was recommended the Smoked Cauliflower for it’s portion size. It did not disappoint. But the prices did. We ordered six meals, 2/6 were bread and labneh. It came out at 80 euro. Atmosphere and service was good though.
Read morePros: Service and atmosphere, Lots of vegan options, Tasty tahini and labneh
Cons: Pricy.

Would give 5 stars if I could - Edit
WOW - what a great find! Goli is an excellent restaurant, the (vegan) food is incredible, the staff are wonderful and it is well priced. The menu is fully vegan, aside from approx 5 meat dishes and all of the cocktails are vegan too. The staff are extremely well versed in the vegan options and the head chef, Harel, is vegan. We visited twice in 3 days and tried as many dishes as we could - this place will be top of my list if I visit Budapest again. The dishes are mostly designed to share and we ordered around 5 between two which was perfect - the vegan labneh is to die for! The restaurant can get quite busy in the evenings so reservations are recommended. If Mediterranean cuisine is your thing then Goli is a MUST when in Budapest - a true gem!
Read morePros: Mouth-wateringly tasty food, Very well priced and good sized portions, Well located and lovely staff
Cons: Not 100% vegan

The BEST vegan labneh 😍 - Edit
I did takeaway twice from Goli because I was on a time crunch and also because the restaurant is quite loud in the evenings. So I imagine the food quality would be even better fresh when served in house. But my takeaway was delicious, still dreaming about the vegan labneh 🤤 (Truthfully, I’ve never found a place that makes vegan labneh but I’d highly recommend this place to try it for the first time!). The second time I ordered it for takeaway it was a bit oily but it was also during a heat wave so the slight change in consistency may be due to that environmental factor rather than a reflection of the restaurant quality itself. The bread bag (which includes 1 pita and 1 slice of sourdough) was also very fresh. The other dishes I ordered were small-ish portions: the charred eggplant (only so-so, was quite charred which infused a heavily smoky flavor), oyster mushrooms and polenta (tasty!), and the tomato/cucumber salad (good flavor but a bit oily).

Amazing vegan options! - Edit
This place is amazing. Everything that isnt meat is vegan, including all cocktails, 2/3 of the menu and all desserts.
Read moreThe food itself is really nice, a nice place to go out for a fancy meal without having to worry about getting dressed up.
The labneh is amazing, the chocolate mousse dessert tastes like pure Ferraro rocher goodness and the rosata cocktail is delicious. Would recommend everything on the menu, we’ve nearly tried it all 😝
Pros: So many vegan options , Great cocktails , Nice casual service
Cons: A bit expensive

MUST TRY - super creative vegan dishes. Count it as a 5 star for me! - Edit
Amazing refined dining experience in Budapest — everything other than the meats are vegan, and the dishes were, quitr frankly, astounding. I was told that one of the founding chefs used to run a fully vegan restaurant, which explains the creativity!
Read moreHighlight of the dinner was 100% the Labneh, made of soy yoghurt. It was by far the best labneh I’ve ever had in my life, vegan or not. I also highly recommend the fried vegan cheese dessert. I’ve never had anything quite like it!!! The roasted beetroot and mushroom with polenta were also remarkable.
Even though it’s not a fully vegan restaurant, it was star tier vegan gastronomy. 100% would recommend.
