Yummy!!

Had dinner here alone so I didn't get to taste as much as I wanted! :D I had a mushroom burger with extra BBQ sauce, a herbal tea and a chocolate cake. Really good but my only issue w the burger is that it wasn't holding up too well. And the vegan cheese was a bit too starchy in my opinion, but overall delicious and would order it again!
I also had the chance to pick up a few books from their shelf, a small but lovely collection - highly recommend it as a chill out spot with a yummy meal :)

Pros: so many options!, very good quality ingredients, nice place

I wish I could give more stars

Throughout my travels across Asia, Europe and Australasia I have been lucky enough to eat a lot of vegan food. And I can say with 100% certainty that this was the best vegan food i have ever had. I have never before posted a review but I have made a special exception for this wonderful place. Do whatever it takes to get to this place. I had the mushroom burger, eggplant dip and moussaka but I'm sure everything on the menu is delicious. Chally out.

Pros: Absolutely everything

Cons: Absolutely nothing.

Possibly the best vegan food I have ever eaten!!!

I've travelled all over the world eating vegan food and never expected this little place in Athens to be the best place I have ever eaten. We shared a moussaka and a mushroom burger with potatoes bravas, and an eggplant dip for a side. The whole meal we spent speechless, shaking our head in disbelief at each other at how good it tasted!! We had to speak to the chef after to say how much we enjoyed it and had a nice conversation with him. The waitress was also very friendly and helpful with telling us where to buy vegan groceries in the city. Wish we were staying longer so we could go again!!!

Amazing flavors

Mama Tierra is a cozy place located in the center city area. The service is excellent. The salads are rich in flavors and nourishing. The burger patties and falafels are to die for. This was the only open place during the weekend in Athens. The place is marked as vegetarian but they offer primarily vegan options. I highly recommend stopping by Mama Tierra for either lunch or dinner if you happen to be in Athens.

Pros: food & service, open during the weekend, location

Cons: limited seating area

Friendly, relaxed and great vegan food

Fantastic food. As a vegan totally spoilt for choice, we tried so much and it was all delicious. Portions are big, so you may have to go back a few times! Friendly and quietly busy place. A lot of workers around the café seemed to call in for take away, always a good sign! Hope Mama Tierra is still there next year when we hope to visit again!

Pros: Fantastic food, Huge portions, Friendly and relaxed

First stop in Athens

Not far from our AirBnB, we went there 2 times and didn´t get disappointed! Food is quick and very tasty. Prices are ok. The Restaurant is small but comfortable and the staff friendly Would go there again :). PS: the moussaka is incredible!

Pros: a lot of options, quick

Delicious food, generous portions

This place lives up to the hype. We ordered the eggplant appetizer, mushroom burger (with patatas bravas), and mousaka. The appetizer was fresh and well-seasoned. It was followed by two huge main dishes, both of which were hearty and super-satisfying. All of the food we had demonstrated creativity and care, and I would love to try some of their other dishes.

Pros: Big portions, Hearty food, Vegan spin on classics

No1 vegan restaurant in town so far!

Excellent food. Quality food! Nothing less than perfect. I think it's possibly the only one 5 star restaurant in Athens where vegans can have many almost paradise taste options. The prices are unbeatable! well done guys! You got yourself a permanent customer

Pros: lots of vegan options. unbeatably cheap prices!

Good fresh food

Nice atmosphere and good food. The menu has lots of choices and lists which stuff is fresh (almost everything) and what's frozen. Helpful friendly staff, chilled and relaxed.

Pros: Wide choice for vegans.

We'll be back!

My family and I ordered the spaghetti, burrito, and falafel plates. My burrito was fantastic! It's listed as "spicy," but they give you the option how making it less spicy, too, if that's your kinda thing. I also loved the guacamole that came with my burrito. Next time, we'll definitely order that as an appetizer because it was so delicious and fresh. My husband, an omnivore, really enjoyed his pasta dish, too. We usually share half and half of our meals so that we get to try more of the menu, but this time neither of us wanted to give up some of our food! 😂

The Kumbucha was sweet and a fair serving size. There's a good drink menu, too, and the desserts looked promising (mostly chocolate).

We won't be in Athens much longer, but we're hoping to swing back by on our way out because it was so delicious!

Pros: GREAT food, vegan or you can easily make it vegan, friendly staff and cute location

Cons: there's not a location in my home country!

Heartwarming

We highly recommand this restaurant because the food is fresh and very tasty. They have a lot of vegan options, some vegetarian and most of them healthy and heartwarming. We discovered it on our last day in Athens, but otherwise we would have come back for sure!

Great burgers

We found this restaurant on Happy cow but it wasn't our first choice in Athens.

The street isn't great but the place is cosy and the staff is really nice.

We almost couldn't choose what to order because all the plates looks awesome.

We took 2 different burgers.

The two were delicious with great sauce and patatas bravas.

We definitely recommend it.

One of the best vegan restaurant in Athens!

Pros: the number of vegan dishes, the staff

Best Vegan Restaurant in Athens

I found this restaurant on Happy cow. Very close to our Airbnb. We've been traveling for few weeks through out Europe. The food was so delicious and light. I ordered the Quinoa Salad and sweet potato soup. I enjoyed every bite. the soft flavor of the spices in the soup and the salad were perfect. My husband order the Mushroom burger. It was by far better than any vegi burger that I've had through out my 40 years of being vegetarian. I'm going back there in few days for other dishes. the menu is so versatile. I strongly recommend this place.

Pros: light, Tasty, versatile

Great food

I haven't yet been here since they veganized almost their entire menu, but, even before, the vegan options here were excellent. The patatas bravas are great!!

The people working here are really, really friendly, and the location is very central.

The atmosphere is not too inviting, but once you get used to it you will love this place!

Pros: Great food, Many different options, Very friendly staff

Cons: Cold atmosphere

Nice for take-away

I like this place very much. They make great falafel (3 euros) and amazing burrito (I think 6 euros, but not sure). I usually take-away, because sitting there is not very pleasent. But, it is OK if you have nowhere to eat your falafel.

Wonderful vegan food/ Geniales veganes Essen

This restaurant serves delicious vegan food. My friend and I shared two starters and a main course, which was plenty of food for us. The cook came over to say hi and it was a lovely experience all around. All the other dishes I saw being brought out also looked amazing, so I will definitely go back there and try some of them!

Dieses Restaurant hat wunderbares veganes Essen. Meine Freundin und ich haben uns zwei Vorspeisen und ein Hauptgericht geteilt und es hat uns absolut gereicht. Der Koch kam vorbei und hat uns begruesst und es war ein rundumm gelungenes Essen. Alle anderen Gerichte, die aus der Kueche kamen, sahen auch super aus, also werde ich definitiv wieder dort essen um ein paar mehr davon zu probieren!

Pros: excellent food, great value, wonderful concept

Excellent flavors, warm service

For my tastes, Mama Tierra is one of the best restaurants in Athens. The menu has some variety, including vegan versions of Greek staples. The flavors and textures are very well done. The vegan moussaka (made with coconut milk) was excellent , as was the chocolate fudge tart. There are fresh juices and smoothies, too.

Service is warm and helpful, and the music was good.

Recommended! Enjoy!

Amazing moussaka, cheap and great food!

Mama Tierra is a great restaurants for vegans looking for a place to eat in Athens. They have a small but nice menu consisting of burgers, salads, soups and some other specialties like curries and burritos. We had the vegetable and quinoa burger, which was extremely delicious and their moussaka which was absolutely great and worth the visit alone. I highly recommend this place! Also, prices are very fair for Athens, each of our dishes was only 7.50 EUR, a little more than half of what you pay at Avocado!

Pros: Tasty and inventive food, divine moussaka, very reasonable prices

One of the best places in Athens!

They have 'improved' their menu now and you can choose everything VEGAN! :)
They are still serving cheese for example in some dishes but it is optional.

The food is taste, the place is cozy and the menu is very attractive!

I tried their burrito last time I went there and it is delicious!

Keep up the good work and see you soon!

Pros: Vegan MENU!, Price

worth a visit

The place is easy to find and has an English menu with clearly marked vegan dishes. We ordered Organic salad and Three Legumes salad with pita bread. Both were very tasty, healthy and well balanced. Portions were fair, both of us were full. Staff was very, very nice - very friendly and communicative. Great place to visit while in Athens, we will come back to try other stuff.

Pros: value for money, great staff, tasty salads

Cons: none

Okay place but not great

We went to this restaurant on our first day in Athens. We were starving because we didn't eat anything all day and it was already early evening so we ordered quite a few things. We tried the mushroom patties, the hummus, daily sweet potato soup and the vegetable curry. The only thing we really enjoyed was the hummus, it was delicious! However everything else wasn't that great, especially the patties. They tasted weird, were mushy and the green salad that was supposed to come with them was badly cooked spinach which tasted awful. The curry was ok but it didn't taste anything like a proper curry. I am a curry lover but to me that was just a mix of frozen vegetables steamed with some curry powder, salt and oil. The soup was a bit tasteless and weird, we ate it but didn't enjoy it much.
Overall we were not satisfied with the food. The prices are reasonable for Athens.

Pros: Reasonable prices, Good location, Good hummus

Cons: Tasteless, not worth it
