Love this place - Edit
Such lovely staff, always welcoming and very friendly. Makes the whole vibe so nice. Their service is fast and their smoothie bowls are delicious. I came here 5/6 times for my breakfast and one take-away Buddha bowl. Just delicious and highly recommend!

Not great, be carefull as doesn’t seem to be vegan - Edit
For the price range food is very low quality. Even place itself doesn’t make it reasonable as it’s located along a busy road with no view. At least one item in the menu marked as 100% vegan isn’t vegan (but I think toasts may contain milk and granola too as it tastes as basic market cereals which usually do). Smoothie is made of banana (the cheapest choice) and small addition of one non-fruit ingredient which makes the dish poor in nutritions. And its the most expensive place I’ve been to on the island. The only pros are nice staff, open early and cute decoration of food. I gave it few chances but really can’t recommend it.

Plenty of vegan options - Edit
I had the matcha moringa bowl, overall it was pretty good although I would say it needed more toppings, especially the granola which unfortunately was barely noticeable. The staff were also happy to substitute meat for tofu on some of the non vegan options which is great!
Read moreWent back for dinner and had the vegan satay bowl, the taste was great and there was a good mix of vegetables, however in our opinion the noodles could have been hot, we mentioned this to the staff and were told they were only meant to be warm a minute more in the wok and would have been perfect.

Healthy and yummy - Edit
They do have quite a few options, but mostly just bowls with pure vegetables. I had the gnocchi pasta and it was very delicious and filled a craving. Lemon juice was decent! Definitely worth a go, just not my number one priority. The smoothie bowls had some crazy designs tho i definitely recommend going for breakfast!!
Read morePros: Quite a few options, Yummy pasta, Amazing looking smoothie bowls
Cons: Not many options that interest me

Extravagant Smoothie Bowls - Edit
Luca Loko has a chill, high end vibe (although it’s located on the main drag). The service is exceptional and the bowls are as refreshing as they are overpriced.
Read moreI had become very sick while in Siquijor so I was grateful for the easily digestible and curative smoothies. (NOTE: The spiraling smoothie is not vegan as the white chocolate pieces contain dairy)

Tasty Peanut Noodle Salad - Edit
I tried the cold peanut noodle salad which was delicious and a very generous portion size. The peanut sauce was delicious! My boyfriend had the cous cous bowl which he enjoyed but was a lot smaller than my meal. On the more expensive side but nice fresh choices.

Bowls for days - Edit
If you're not a bowl-lover, this place might not be for you. As a semi-picky eater I wasn't in love. The smoothie bowls were unproportional in the amount of granola (very little) vs "smoothie"
Read moreBuddha bowl and noodle bowl were good in size but lacked flavour unless you love peanuts and will dump the entire sauce on there.
Juices come with a lot of ice so they lack that deliciousness of the fruit.
Prices are decent, staff is lovely. Place was fully packed all times we were there or drove by but service is quite fast

Tofu! - Edit
Finally found some tofu :). We stayed at Glamping Siquijor and had the ability to cook, but we weren’t able to find any tofu. Not even in the big supermarket in Larena. Therefore we were super happy to finally find some tofu in the Buddha Bowl at this place. As the bowl is super big and filling, the price of around 320 pesos is fair. Its base is white rice, which is topped with veggies, one kind of fruit, and peanut sauce. We had the peanut butter bowl too, and if you are peanut addicted like we are, then you have to try this delicious smoothie bowl. The price of 250 pesos is fair also.

Good vegan food in San Juan - Edit
Fairly large vegan selection compared with other places on the island. The Buddha bowl was large and very filling. I really enjoyed that - it contains beans and tofu and since I’ve been struggling to find vegan protein sources in Philippines it’s been great.
Read moreThe smoothie bowl was nice but tiny though. Was expecting more for the price. Especially since we got a smoothie bowl in Malapascua which was much larger.
Pros: A lot of options , Friendly staff , Good food
Cons: Small smoothie bowls
