Dinner for two, yes please!

This was the best meal we had in Medellin. We ordered the following:

Tikka Masala - mild, creamy curry with amazing fried tofu chunks and homemade crispy flatbread. Yum!

Hummus with bread - the hummus was good, but the little chickpea croquettes in some sort of magical tomato sauce was, hands down, one of the nicest things we have ever eaten. (We forgot to take a picture!)

Tacos - our least favourite thing we ordered. Packed with flavour, but the mushrooms were a little smoky for our taste. Even so, they didn’t last long.

Quinoa bowl - fresh, yummy, well presented.

The mojito was good too.

Service was a bit mixed. Hard to get attention and took a long to take our order, we felt a bit forgotten about, but the waitress was very apologetic.

Stale croissant

Unfortunately the croissant was not great. Stale and not crispy. Though the staff were really nice and had a great atmosphere.

bueno pero necesita mejorar

para una cuenta de $123.000 pesos colombianos se me hizo excesivo para la combinación entre la comida y el servicio. pedimos la ensalada César, la hamburguesa Valluna y el pero Kaime. sobre la ensalada me hubiera gustado que la mesera nos indicara que el plato era picante ya que en el menú no lo decía en la información, y aunque tenía el indicador era importante que nos resalten ese detalle; además, era un poco pequeña la porción para estar en la sección de compartir. sobre la hamburguesa considero que le faltaba resaltar el sabor del encocado y que hubieran tenido una versión original de proteína vegetal ya que usan productos de NotCo y el sabor que maneja esa marca es muy prominente, lo que no permite equilibrar bien el sabor de toda la hamburguesa. las papas fueron excelentes y la salsa que las acompañaba también estaba rica. por último, al perro le sucedió algo parecido como a la ensalada, tenía la información en la descripción sobre su picante pero no el indicador, así que también era importante que nos indicaran aquello. pero bueno, la mesera que nos entregó la cuenta fue muy amable y escuchó nuestras molestias, así que agradezco eso.
el ambiente es bonito, se siente de alta cocina.

Pros: ambiente, ubicación

Cons: incoherencia en los indicadores del menú , servicio

Esperaba más

Íbamos con grandes expectativas, pero tal vez es mejor bajarlas un poco. El ambiente del restaurante es agradable y de alta gama, aunque los precios pueden ser excesivos; por ejemplo, un agua cuesta 15,000 COP. Además, al no tener menús físicos, podrían ajustar los subtítulos de los platos, ya que dos de los tres que pedimos no eran realmente para compartir, y el que sí lo era tenía poca proteína.

El principal problema fue la hamburguesa, que utiliza proteína NotCo. Aunque esta opción vegana ha ganado popularidad, su sabor es demasiado dominante y resta protagonismo a los demás ingredientes. Por el precio, uno esperaría algo con ingredientes más locales y naturales, en lugar de un sabor genérico.

Otro inconveniente fue que uno de los platos estaba considerablemente picante, pero no estaba marcado como tal en el menú. En general, la comida es algo grasosa, con exceso de salsas. Por ejemplo, los crutones de la ensalada César tenían un fuerte sabor a aceite, lo que opacaba otros elementos como las orellanas a la plancha.


Pros:

1. Ambiente agradable y bien cuidado.


2. Ingredientes como las orellanas y la salchicha casera se destacan por su buen sazón.


3. El perro caliente tenía una combinación de sabores creativa, especialmente con la mermelada de pimentón, berenjena y manzana.



Contras:

1. La hamburguesa NotCo tiene un sabor demasiado intrusivo.


2. Platos marcados como para compartir no son lo suficientemente grandes.


3. Algunos platos tienen mucho picante o grasa, sin la indicación adecuada.

Delicious!

The interior is really well designed and it's a great atmosphere. The food was really delicious - although the menu is long and all the options sounded amazing so it's quite hard to pick the right ones! I think the breakfast was probably the best thing that we had - in particular the way they cooked the tofu "eggs" was delicious. Great cakes for desert as well

Sabores auténticos, lugar bonito

Es un restaurante muy bonito y con un toque elegante. En la primera ocasión que fui, probé el bowl de papas en espiral, era una porción muy generosa y una combinación de sabores y texturas muy particular, estaba muy delicioso. En esta segunda ocasión, probamos el humus de garbanzos y aunque en la carta se catalogada como un plato grande para compartir, me pareció más una porción personal. El pan estaba muy rico y el falafel también. De postre probamos las galletas con helado, estaban ricas pero la de chips de chocolate estaba muy dura, recomiendo mejor la de chocoaguacate.

Pros: Buen servicio al cliente , Lugar muy bonito

Top notch

We spent a week here in Medellín and this was our best meal. Mushroom tacos and tofu tikka masala. Great cocktails--and the Chilean rosé was incredible.

Pros: The decor. Soft wood tones, interior garden., The service (thank you, Victoria)

Beautiful and yummy!

The interior is so so so beautiful. The food was also very delicious, we had the croissant sandwich, the hotdog callejero and the cheeseburger. For dessert we had the tiramisu and salted caramel cookie with a hot chocolate. I would def come back here!

Vegan Burger but Unfitting Loud Music

I liked the relaxed interior design of this place. I had a Cheese Burger and a Moscow Mule Mocktail. In total it cost about 15€. It all tasted great, especially the Mocktail! The service was also great. :)

What I don't liked was the annoyingly loud western pop music, which I didn't think fit the vibe at all. I also didn't like that there were only QR code menus. For that reason, only four stars!

One amazing dish others less impressive

A slightly mixed experience. The starter we chose - spiral potatoes - was absolutely amazing. One of the most delicious dishes I’ve had in a long time. I can hardly describe it because it was too good for words! Truffle oil was in there which I think was the magic ingredient.

I think this was my downfall because then the ‘chicken’ burger and fries was a bit disappointing - the fries were just skinny fries and the burger tasted like a commercial one (not sure if made in house or not) a bit salty and too smothered in sugary sauce. So I didn’t enjoy that.

The chocolate chunk cookie for dessert was ok - would have been better if I’d chosen ice cream with it I think.

Next morning we got takeaway croissants which were nice but not blow your mind nice.

So overall go for the spiralled potatoes and you won’t regret it!

Pros: Lovely decor and vibe, Amazing spiralled potato dish, Vegan bakery attached

Cons: Chicken burger and fries a bit disappointing , Relatively Expensive

One of the few places in Colombia that has really good vegan burgers (and more).
