Love everything!

We both had a tico wrap and shared the banana bread. It was super tasty and the banana bread was perfectly moist. Would go back anytime! Great price too.

Pros: Everything

Outstanding Vegan Cafe

This is the place to come in Costa Rica. Vegan run and find the friendly owner Pablo at the counter taking orders and making conversation about Veganism. The attention to food and flavor is stellar, the coffee is fantastic, the fruit salad amazing, the hummus is the best I've been served in Latin America over the past five months. The owner is a champ who buys local produce and avoids factory crap, even getting tofu from a local artisan. Just night and day the difference an on-site vegan owner makes to a vegan business. All good. Felt like I was glowing after my meal here. Owner takes a profit hit to make sure the food prices stay reasonable to encourage inclusivity.

Can't wait to try more!

Este es el lugar para venir en Costa Rica. Corre vegano y encuentra al amable dueño Pablo en el mostrador tomando pedidos y conversando sobre veganismo. La atención a la comida y el sabor es estelar, el café es fantástico, la ensalada de frutas increíble, el hummus es el mejor que me han servido en América Latina en los últimos cinco meses. El propietario es un campeón que compra productos locales y evita las tonterías de las fábricas, e incluso obtiene tofu de un artesano local. Solo día y noche, la diferencia que un propietario vegano en el sitio hace para un negocio vegano. Todo está bien. Me sentí como si estuviera radiante después de mi comida aquí. El propietario recibe un golpe de ganancias para asegurarse de que los precios de los alimentos se mantengan razonables para fomentar la inclusión.

¡No puedo esperar para probar más!

Delicious food, friendly service

The restaurant is in a little plaza with parking, which is a plus. The restaurant is sparse but nice. We had the breakfast burrito. It was amazing. Ask for the equally tasty hot sauce to go with it. This place also has a great selection of croissants and banana bread. The ones I sampled were excellent. The staff is very friendly. Breakfast for 2 with coffee, plus a croissant and banana bread worked out to only $23. What a find!

Pros: Good food, Very affordable, Friendly staff

Great food and people!

I got the mushroom panini and LOVED it. Fabiola helped us decide what to get and she was so fantastic. I’d definitely come back again!

Lovely spot

I just happened upon this place as I needed to visit the pharmacy on the same row, and what a great little find! All vegan place with a nice selection to choose from. I got the 'VLT', which is with marinated carrots for the 'V'. Really yummy. Also had good coffee with a choice of soya or almond milk. Had some banana bread and a cookie to take away, to die for 😋

INCREÍBLE

INCREÍBLE! Mis papás están de visita aquí en Costa Rica de Inglaterra. Quería llevarles a un lugar de comida sana y vegana pero a la vez rica. MIXT superó todas las expectativas!

Nuestros bowls fueron llenísimos de sabores naturales y sustanciosos también. Las bebidas naturales fueron riquísimas también.

Luego, estaban saliendo del horno panes. Uno de chispas de chocolate y otro de nueces. DELICIOSOS!

Todo fue vegano y lo que destacó fue el servicio tan amable y sonriente. Se nota que la gente que trabaja ahí está apasionada de su labor, y el resultado es la comida más rica y sana que he nunca probado!

Pros: Sana, Sabrosa, Amable

Cons: Nada

Good food, great atmosphere, great service

Fabiola was our amazing server and host. She was very helpful in giving us recommendations and the food came out very quick. My Fiesta wrap was a little dry so I wish there was a sauce with it, but otherwise very flavorful. My friend got the Portobello panini and it was really delicious. The restaurant is small and charming. I really liked the decor. Overall a great restaurant that I will come to again if I am in San José.

Pros: All vegan options, Great food

Cons: Closes early

Excellent cruelty free food

Honestly can't complain about anything I had in this little cozy restaurant/café. Sophisticated, complete and genuine food. The staff is very friendly and the price is one of the most reasonable I found around the city (considering San José is expensive).
Maybe a little suggestion: more sauce options and it reaches perfection!

Pros: Only cruelty free options, Super friendly staff, Best qyality/price place in town I've found

Cons: More souce options

Incredible vegan food!

We had dinner at Mixt with 2 young kids (2 and 5), and all 4 of us absolutely loved the food! We had the Asian salad, the squash soup, the lentil curry soup, a panini, and a Buddha bowl for our kids. Every single dish (especially the soups) were exceptional. I am still craving these meals and wish we could be back to Escazu, San Jose to have more! Out of all the vegan food we’ve had in Costa Rica on our 6-week long trip, this was at the top.

Pros: All vegan, Extremely delicious, Conveniently located

When in San Jose, stop here for lunch!

I would like to try everything on the menu, but I live a few hours away! I had the roasted red bell pepper panini sandwich, the pumpkin soup and salad. and a strong coffee! It was all very delicious. My non-vegan friend that was with me LOVED the Tico wrap. I love surprising non-vegans with delicious vegan food! There's nothing to miss, you will leave completely satisfied. Very friendly staff, clean place, secure parking directly in front, easy to find eatery. Thank you, Pablo and staff!

Best vegan food in San Jose!

This place was awesome!! Not to get confused with MIXT salads from California. Heads up - the location on maps.me (a maps app) is wrong (it’s their old location), Google maps and happy cow are correct, in case you use maps.me for navigation. The husband and wife owners are so friendly and helpful! The husband gave us great recommendations, let us sample the juices, and brought us a cookie on the house when they weren’t busy! The wife helped us with taxi/Uber information. The food is pretty damn good, and the price is fair. Small menu, but we like it that way (tough for us to pick with many options!) there aren’t many vegan restaurants in San Jose Costa Rica so this (and De Aca) really hit the spot. My girlfriend and I enjoyed our dinner, no pictures but we both got paninis with soup as the side and they were very tasty. Oh and the juice!

Pros: All vegan restaurant, Filling meals (not just salads!), Fair pricing

Cons: Make sure you go to the correct location!

Solid food. Everything was good!

The food here is really good. Not too many options in this particular area but I was very pleased. I’ve tried the following and all were good and clean:
Tico Wrap, Fiesta Wrap
Oriental bowl was bot my favorite but was still good. Madre Tierra bowl was better in my opinion.
Lentil soup and pumpkin soup were really good. I get one if those each time I go.
Pablo, the owner, is a friendly guy.
Highly recommend this place!

Vegan food near La Sabana

All vegan restaurant with fresh wraps and salads. We had the tico wrap and a chocolate chip cookie for dessert. They even heated up the cookie so the chocolate was all melted. :)The restaurant is very white and not that cosy but the staff is friendly and the food is fresh and delicious.

Updated from previous review on 2021-10-27

Pros: fully vegan, fresh produce, warm chocolate cookies!

Cons: not the most cozy restaurant

Amazing bowl, friendly service

Yo, freshest tastiest bowl I have had and I’ve had lots of veggie bowls in my time. My recommendation is to get the Asian peanut sauce on the Madre Tierra bowl. Fantastic!
