Very good

Repas délicieux et personnel très aimable ! Un peu cher mais en lien avec le quartier. Les plats étaient savoureux et très bons !

Overrated for just a starter plate!

The service was super good. The fact that the restaurant has an open kitchen also gives a hygienic feeling and confidence. The waiter he was attentive and observant.

But the food was disappointing. Overrated for just a starter plate. The hummus was not interesting in taste and not creamy. The chickpea croquettes/balls were greasy and they had no taste. The vegan vegetable balls from the IKEA, are tastier.
Besides salad bowls, the menu only contains hamburgers, but they do not contain legume protein.

The bread was really fresh!

Probably because this restaurant is located in El Poblado, they charge European prices.

But if you want to eat healthy and you like simple flavors and you don't mind the high price, then go for it!

If you don't want to give “propina” You have to tell this because they calculate the “propina”. You will then receive a new “factura” without the “propina”.

Worth seeking out!

A little hidden bit worth seeking out! We loved the cauliflower and the tofu tikka masala, and really liked the Shawarma. Very pretty and peaceful. Our meat loving son also thought it was excellent. #Veganuary

Buen lugar para convencer a no veganxs

Me gusta que tenga el concepto de compartir y así mismo tantas opciones en la carta, medianas y grandes, para hacerlo. Probamos los nuggets de no pollo, no pollo a la naranja y el cheese cake de frutos rojos, los sabores son un espectáculo y el emplatado impecable.

Unglaublich leckeres Essen 🥰

Alles was ich probiert habe war ausserordentlich geschmackvoll! Ich hatte den Blumenkohl-Hummus, den Happy Chicken Burger und als krönenden Abschluss das Pistazien Cheescake! Auch der Service war sehr aufmerksam und das Ambiente top!

Pros: Geschmacksexplosion, Guter Service , Tolles Ambiente

Very nice

The restaurant sign was hidden by a plant in a pot but there was a lady outside nice enough to point me in the right direction. I ordered the Kaime hotdog and the mushroom rissoni. The hotdog was a nice balance of sweet and savory with a hint of salt. The fries were really good and served with a green aioli. The mushroom had incredible flavor, definitely on the strong side. Very nice flavors and atmosphere. It’s a bit pricey but not terrible.

Pros: All vegan, Atmosphere

One of our faves in Medellin/Un favarito en Medellin

It was high end, delicious, and reliably wonderful food. We came here for dinner and breakfast. The ambiance was lovely, great for a date. And the French toast was the BEST!

Mind blowing burgers

An example of why no one needs to eat meat. We had the standard burger and the chkn one and both were great. Good portions, fresh and assumingly home made. Chips were also very good and reminded me of what I remember McDonald’s chips to be like!? Would defo come again

Exquisite tastes!

Wow, the tropical burger tasted amazing, such good flavours!🔥🍔 The non-alcohol Moscow Mule Was yummy, but very overprized for a cocktail.🙃 For dessert I had the donut with Arequipe, which I loved.😋 It is expensive but definitely worth it as it's all vegan and extremely delicious! Also the decor is really beautiful and the staff very attentive.

Amazing desserts!

Great vegan pastries and desserts! I had the risotto to start and then a cheesecake for dessert. I also took a donut and cinnamon roll home too for later. Everything was amazing.
The place does seem to cater more to sharing plates so if you’re on your own there’s not really one complete dish you can have on its own. So it could get expensive if ordering multiple dishes.
Still everything i had was delicious!

A Place to Celebrate

It was our first restaurant experience in Colombia and I think we got off to a very good start with dinner. We really enjoyed the place. The attendant was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The dishes were really tasty and the drinks were sensational. Many vegan options. We were very satisfied with the experience.

Foi nossa primeira experiência de restaurante na Colômbia e acho que começamos muito bem num jantar. Gostamos bastante do local. A atendente foi muito receptiva, amável e solícita. Os pratos realmente estavam muito saborosos e os drinks estavam sensacionais. Muitas opções veganas. Ficamos bastante satisfeitos com a experiência.

A novel twist on vegan food

The service here is great and the food is relatively novel, yet wholesome! Coming from the states, it was nice to see how this restaurant did vegan substitutes of caprese and tortellinis, for example. Didn’t get to try their meat substitutes but they had some interesting options (ie, chickpea sausage).

Would order the caprese flatbread and spinach tofu tortellini again; not so much the cauliflower wings as they weren’t anything special.

Pros: Fully vegan, Lots of options, Good service

Cons: Price

Good vegan food, nice ambiance

We went there for dinner on a weeknight at 7pm and were easily able to get seated. Service was fast and courteous. We tried the special of the day -vegan shawarma - and found it flavorful but a little soggy. The accompanying vegan yogurt cream was more impressive. The plantain burger was ok- a standard soy patty but the best dish by far was the hotdog. I also recommend the fries with the cilantro mayo. The desserts are creative and tasty. We enjoyed the pistachio donut and cheesecake. The food is a bit pricey but the experience was good.

Pros: Ambiance, Diverse options, Great desserts

Cons: A little pricey

Really cool vegan dishes

There are a lot of creative dishes here.
I had the cauliflower wings- really good and the tofu hummus- I dis not love it but it was nice. I would order a different one because I think they will be tastier.
For dessert I had the lemon pie which was really good, not the best I have had.
All in all this is definitely worth a visit, make sure to order the recommended dishes !

Pros: Creative dishes, Good service

So good, went twice in 24 hours

Came for dinner with 2 non vegans and everyone thought it was some of the best food we'd had in Medellin. Chickpea hummus dish was ridiculous, everyone's favorite dish split of many there. Also went back for breakfast and thought every dish then was amazing too.

Plant-based restaurant with uneven service

Edit: We returned for a second visit. This time, the server tried to upsell us on alcohol. Tacky, and annoying.

Then he overcharged us by $160. No apology, though he corrected the "mistake." (Just because we are not Spanish speakers, we can still do math.)

It all left a bad taste, and we would not return, even for the great burgers.

Original: We were seated immediately when we arrived around 7:30 on a Tuesday. The menu is long and concludes with a photo of the owner in swim gear, a little unusual but okay.

My family ordered a number of different items: burger, bowl, dishes to share. Good flavors -- a little different from the other veg places we have visited, with attention given to aesthetics and presentation as well as food.

I particularly liked the shot of lemon juice, probably the most affordable item on the menu.

We shared lemon and blueberry cake for dessert, and that was excellent too.

The decor is soothing, and although it has something of an upscale vibe, we were not underdressed in our casual California tourist clothes.
