Tasty but pricey indian food, mostly vegan - Edit
Quiet "hare krishna" self-service eatery in Śiška, with mostly vegan food, the rest is vegetarian. Friendly staff will inform you readily about what is vegetarian and not vegan. There's a salad bar and a couple of desserts, too. And soft drinks. Outdoor seating as well, but not in deep shade, which makes it often too hot. Food is relatively expensive, if you want to fill the tummy as everything is weighed and priced at 19€/kg

Cons: Relatively pricey, Outdoor seating too hot in summer

Good variety and rich flavors - Edit
We often order take-out from here. Good variety of options, updated frequently enough so that you don't get tired of it. Everything tastes and looks fresh and seasoned well. Staff is doing a great job in assembling balanced and interesting take-out boxes.

Vegan buffet! - Edit
A vegetarian restaurant which only had vegan options when I came.
Read moreThe place is self-service, so you can pick everything from a buffet and it is weighted at the end. The buffet includes salad and desert.
I especially liked that I found the typical Slovenia cake in a vegan version!

Nice food - Edit
I have only gotten takeout from them and it was very good and the portions were large. They make some of the best veggie patties I have ever had.
Read moreI would prefer the lunch option (when getting takeout) to feature one main dish and two sides instead of four to five smaller portions. It’s nice to sample everything but it’s just too many flavors at once for me.
They also make the best house made vegan donuts I’ve ever tried but they might only offer them in February for Pust/Mardi Gras.

Something for everyone - Edit
Radha is one of my favorite restaurants in Ljubljana. It offers a lot of different vegan (and vegetarian) food. The stuff is always nice and the food is generally quite good. They also have the best vegan desserts and the prices are reasonable.

Tasty and budget friendly buffet - Edit
Went here for a quick lunch and left very satisfied. The vegan options are plenty and are clearly labeled. For a student coupon (3.44€ I think) you get soup, dessert and a plate you can fill with anything you like. The food was tasty and the staff very friendly.

great food and atmosphere - Edit
The staff was friendly and helpful (the hostess spoke English). The layout and decor is nice. Upon entering there is a sink to wash your hands before serving your plate. The food seemed fresh and there was good variety. My only complaint is the markings of what was vegetarian versus vegan were not clear to me. The food was yummy and well-priced. After eating the trays are placed on a cart and quickly cleared for washing. The bathroom was clearly marked and clean. A very nice restaurant!

Sumptuous food - Edit
Govinda's offers you several options regarding the variety of food and the quantity you would like to eat. The food is lacto-vegetarian, but they have several vegan options. Good thing is if you choose the largest plate which is priced 9.5 Euros, you can fill it up with lots of food. The food is delicious. Also, there is a temple a couple blocks from the restaurant and a store where they sell Indian food, spices, etc.

Great food, nice people, pleasent ambient - Edit
The local hare-krishna self-catering restaurant offers a variety of dishes, daily soup, salad and about 4 different desserts. It is all nicely marked if it's vegan, gluten-free.. The food is great, people are really friendly and I like the nice ambient, hare-krishna music playing in the background.. It's just a 10min walk away from the centre of the city, so the location is also great.
Read morePros: Everything!
Cons: Prices, maybe

Good buffet - Edit
This is a decent vegetarian buffet restaurant. There is a good salad bar and a changing daily menu. The Indian dish I had was good and I liked that it was buffet style. Not as cheap as I thought (11.5 Euro for the buffet and a drink), but still good value and worth the 10-15 minute walk from the centre of Ljubljana.

Very nice! - Edit
As a student I am quite lucky I can use my student's coupons there, otherwise it's not so cheap for amount you can take. I like self-service but if you are vegan, you have to have in mind there is not always much choice for you. I've eaten there many times and sometimes I've been really happy, almost everything was vegan, other time it was more the opposite. Still, you will love the food! Good tastes:) Salads and desserts are good too. I always eat too much there, that's the only problem. I would share it with some friend but the stuff can complicate about it. I miss some raw options (beside salad). In general, I recommend this place, especially for vegetarians but also for vegans. Enjoy;)
Read morePros: excellent food, nice atmosphere, student coupons

Krishna's takeaway - Edit
This place is hidden in a side street 15 minute walk from the city center, but well worth the stroll. The food is self-service, half lacto vege, half vegan, with price determined by the dish you choose. There is always also a more european option available, such as mini pizza or stew, always good but not always vegan.
Read moreImportant thing for me is that Krishnas don't use onion or garlic. So my only problem with this place is that I always stuff myself, as I want to try everything, and everything is so good...
Pros: Good, fast food (not fastfood), Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, Good prices
Cons: Cash only, Toilet downstairs
