Non-veg

Serves meat, vegan options available. Was one-time veg but reported added fish and chicken to menu (2014). Food ingredients written in Portuguese, and vegans should ask to be sure. Little house converted to restaurant surrounded by a tropical garden. Miniture monkeys live there. Open Mon-Sat 12:00pm-3:00pm.

Literalmente um oásis no Rio Vermelho

Manjericão é, desde o caminho pra subir pra entrada, um oásis integrado à natureza, a lojinha, as plantas e ao entrarmos.jo restaurante aquele festejo à comida natural, cheia de opções à base de vegetais e tudo delicioso

Pros: A arquitetura integrada à natureza , A variedade de opções veganas, O culto ã beleza natural em cada detalhe

Cons: Nada, Nada

Vale a experiência pelo ambiente mas é possível encontrar outras opções pelo Rio Vermelho

Comida saborosa, mas acho que em Salvador tem opções melhores e mais em conta, até mesmo pelo Rio Vermelho é possível encontrar opções mais baratas e saborosas.
O restaurante não é 100% vegetariano, há plaquinhas com os nomes de cada prato, mas eu recomendaria que houvesse alguma indicação em cada prato se ele é 100% vegano ou não.
O ambiente é de fato maravilhoso e o atendimento bom.

Pros: Ambiente, Atendimento, Saladas

Decent enough, but there are better veg-only buffets

Generally, the first 80% of items in the buffet line are vegetarian, and vegan stuff is marked vegan - the last few have chicken or fish. Food is decent enough - nothing fancy. But it's quite a limited range. And I've been coming here for over a decade on and off and I've never seen any monkeys!

In early 2023, all three buffets I've visited - this, Saude De Panela, Ramma - are around R$90 per kilo, which is fairly outrageous considering comparable vegetarian and vegan buffets in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro this month were R$50 to R$65. This place isn't even fully veg. Conventional non-veg places in Salvador are under half this price. Given that Saude Na Panela is higher quality with a much wider range of choices and you don't have to watch out for meat and fish, then I don't know why you would come here, other than if (as I am) you're staying at the Ibis or Mercure a hundred yards away. Ramma is significantly better than this too. Manjericao is a distant third of the three.

ONLY VEGETARIAN OPTIONS

I had to give up. The place had only a poor salad, rice and beans for vegans. I even tried Solar across the street, but this restaurant is really expensive and only have vegetarian options (marked on menu).

Cons: Not recommended for vegan, Only vegetarian, fish and chicken options

Great surprise

Many vegan options (you need to ask a staff member) and the place is incredibly charming. You can actually see monkeys playing around in the trees in the restaurant 💜

hidden paradise

A little hidden but absolutely worth the search, this snug restaurant is situated in a calm side street next to buzzling streets. They serve delicious bahian food which is combined with nice ordenary salads. All in all absolutely recommendable!

Great vegetarian spot!!

Atmosphere is like little house in a beautiful tropical jungle. Food is lacto vegetarian and traditional bahian food made it vegetarian style. So much variety you can choose ( buffet style). They are all delicious! Don't forget to order desserts too, Especially "tapioca Ice cream" is to die for!
