Tolles Lokal, tolles Essen, tolle Leute!

Die kreativen Menüs bleiben in guter Erinnerung! Zuvorkommende Bedienung, gute Geteänkeauswahl - auch nonalkoholisch. Der kalte Rooibos-Vanille Tee ist der Hammer! Schon mehrmals hier gewesen, immer wieder ein Highlight - bestellt einfach nicht den Burger, der hat eigentlich nichts auf der Karte verloren.😄und wer nicht schwindelfrei ist, sollte nicht ins rechte Klo. Wer schwindelfrei ist: unbedingt aufs rechte Klo ;)

Pros: Ambiente, Food!

Cons: Burger langweilig und passt nicht ins Konzept

Modern-elegant location für vegan fine dining experience

The restaurant has been transformed from a historic building into a cozy welcoming place including an court seating area and a cave. Here you can have a decent vegan dinner.

Pros: fine dining

Wonderful place!

The food is great, the staff is very friendly and the location has a wonderful view over the canal with a few historic landmarks in the near vicinity! And even though it is close to the very busy old town this street was actually surprisingly quiet! Big recommend!

Pros: Friendly vibe

Excellent dinner

Had an excellent dinner here! The setting is very nice right on the river. The food was very good, albeit expensive. Did not appreciate being charged 6CHF for a carafe of tap water though.

Pros: Creative dishes, Nice setting, Good gluten free options

As i wished for

For a long time i searched u fully vegan restaurant which gives me the feeling of a cozy restaurant, where you dont have to worry what you can eat. This was it!

At the time writing i visited this place twice. They always had three courses with each three choices. Every thing was so delicious

Updated from previous review on 2022-09-06

Pros: Every thing is vegan, Cozy, Delicious

Cons: One hour drive away

Upscale

It is hard to find an upscale fully vegan restaurant/bar in Switzerland. But now you found one ;)

Broad and diverse menu, good drinks menu too. Try the wine!

Cons: Closed between 2pm and 6pm, Always full

Riverside healthy dinner

They offer seasonal dishes so the menu changes, but they’re always committed to tasty, health forward meals. The veggie burger was great but the chocolate mousse dessert stole the show!

Pros: Riverside ambience, Friendly staff

Full restaurant speaks volumes

This restaurant was completely full the night we went. Great atmosphere, excellent food and a good wine list. I enjoyed the ‘Autumn plate’ and the Pumpkin Pie. It’s expensive but it’s in Switzerland where everything is expensive.

Pros: Buzzy atmosphere., Autumn plate, Pumpkin pie

Best vegan food in 16 years

My wife and I were Celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary since we married in Luzern. We were amazed at the quality of the meals at Karls Kraut. We chose a mixed vegetarian salad, and a vegetable pasta wrap ( angel hair pasta center, wrapped in vegetables in a rice paper wrap). Both were fantastic. We have been whole food plant based for 16 years and have never had better food. We highly recommend this restaurant. We ate outside, with a beautiful view of the River Reuss and the old downtown. It doesn't get any better that this.

Updated from previous review on 2023-10-02

Pros: Filling, delicious whole food plant based meals, Great views, Good service once order was in

Cons: We had to go back inside to order

What a pleasure it was to be served delicious, homemade plant based food. A small menu choice, but every dish is prepared with love and a passion for the environment. Can’t fault it, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff.

Pros: Fresh homemade dishes, Lovely atmosphere, sat by the river, Food very tasty and different

Tasty food great desserts

Tasty food at reasonable prices. I tried their green pea gazpacho, salad, and poppy seed cake. The soup and cake were nice while the salad was quite unexciting (just lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and way too much dressing). The poppy seed cake was by far the best part of the meal. Service was very friendly and the place is comfortable.

Pros: Poppy seed cake , Friendly service
