Great Food at a reasonable price

Had the falafel pita with hummus. Was amazing, fresh falafel and veggies, almost too much food to eat. (The owners of bells beach on siquijor should come and see what a real falafel pita is like). Highly Recommended.

Pros: Great service, Super fresh, Many many vegan options.

Incredible fake meat

This restaurant was easy to locate, on the right hand side of the side street. The wait staff were friendly. There was a large vegan menu and options were easy to identify. The food itself was of generous portion size and flavourful. 100% recommended going here if you are a lover of faux meat.

Pros: Clearly marked menu , Fake meat

Really delicious and easy vegan meal

Lots of labeled vegan foods. The staff understood vegan. Both the biryani and the curry were delicious and the portions were large. Lots of outdoor seating. I'll be back

Cons: Not 100% vegan

Okay food

They don’t really know what Plant Based is, so you have to be very clear about eating vegan and the ingredients you do not eat.

We had the samosa’s = tasty & good. We had a salad = quite boring. And we had the falafel wrap = okay. Overall not very special or tasty.

Good vegetarian option but wouldn't return

I got the hummus plate and tabbouleh salad. The hummus was good but not the best I've had. The pita that came out with it was warm, which was nice, and they provided you with a small key lime to juice over the hummus. This really enhanced the flavor. Unfortunately I was quite disappointed with the tabbouleh. It was a little warm and primarily cucumber. It lacked flavor and I only ate it so as not to waste food. Note that it was a rather large portion.

Overall, I think it's a good option for a vegan or vegetarian meal when in the mall. They do have a large selection. However, the quality is not great and the price was high compared to other establishments in the area. Note it is cash or online pay only.

A Veggie island

The menu has enough vegetarian options for at least three/four visits, what is already a lot in the Philippines.

I had the vegetarian kaldereta, that is a local recipy and was delicious. As starter the spinach with mango is very good also.

Easy to reach and find. Not sure if they deliver.

Pros: Many vegetarian options , The prices aren't too high , Staff is very nice

Cons: Portions aren't too big

Not The Best

We visited here after having an awful experience elsewhere and were really hungry after we had walked around the city. The food was okay but wasn’t amazing. It was good to have some vegan options in the city whilst we were there for one night. I wouldn’t rush back.

Pretty good food, but pricy, not all vegan

This is a fairly popular Persian restaurant with a vegetarian menu, including several dishes explicitly labeled as vegan.

I ordered mock meat biryani and samosas. Food tasted fine, albeit a bit salty and obviously lacking onion (I assume due to the shortage when I visited). Biryani portion was huge. Vegan samosas were a little cold in the middle, and came with a honey-based sauce.

Cash only.

Next level flavours

Super thankful for this place, has it’s own menu which claims to be plant based BUT it contains a lot of egg and yoghurt, so a lot of things are indeed veggie, not vegan. The Lassis aren’t vegan, neither are some of the middle eastern dishes which contain yoghurt, so be sure to ask.

The food was fantastic though, the veggie meat Biryani was awesome and a large portion, as were the curries, we tried multiple! The spinach and chickpea was my favourite, but the one with tofu was also delicious! It’s a little more on the pricey side, but it was delicious! Highly recommend.

Mediterranean/Persian Cuisine

We had two dinners here. It is really difficult to find vegan/vegetarian options in Cebu City. Persian Palate has two menus; a meat menu and a vegetarian/vegan menu. Fatoush salad is a must, definitely you need to try. Mezes are not deep in taste for a Mediterranean, but they are acceptable. A bit pricey but worth it.

Pros: Vegan/Vegetarian Options , Outside Seating, Tasty

Cons: A bit pricey

A reasonable option

Good range of options available here for the vegan/vegetarian. Flavours could be punched up a little - or a lot!

Pros: Plenty of options, Quick and friendly service

Cons: Somewhat bland for curry dishes

A must-try in Cebu city.

If you go to Cebu and if you are looking for a place offering dishes for any type of diet, this is your place. Well, here I am only talking about vegan meals. We had the hummus, the eggplant caviar and the two Daals. Everything was delicious. Plus, we had two drinks. And two cookies to end the dinner. Well, they are just okay, not extra. All of those for 955. Fair price.

Just one more thing: when you order your drink, ask without plastic straw. For the sake of the ocean.

Pros: Hummus & pita bread , Daal , Affordable

Cons: Plastic straw

Amazing

Sooo happy that I got here!
Food was so good!
Got a dish with mock meat and loved it.
My boyfriend got a vegan version of butter paneer masala and a garlic naan. The naan was just a yellow puta bread, so don’t go for that one

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Cons: Really bad Indian bread

Lots of options!

Really extensive menu available filled with veggie and vegan options. We had the babaganoush with pita which was delicious and flavourful. The veggie special which is jam packed with vegetables, and the tofu spinach curry which was good but not amazing. Overall really good value for money and lots to choose from. Would love to try the buffet

Pros: Cheap, Lots of options

Awesome

Now in Ayala Mall as well. They have a spectacular selection of vegan dishes, all made by cooks trained to be happy and smiling says the menu! I had veggie curry and hummus side that was superb. They also sell some vegan cookies which I didn't try. I thought SaladStop in Ayala was my only option until I discovered this place.

Nice vegetarian buffet

The buffet is ok, nice to see something like that is Cebu though.

It definitely exists but the map is off, it's located in a small mall. Google maps has a better location.

Amazing Indian food

Had the all you can eat buffet on a Saturday night, only 195P incl fresh home made lemonades. Everything was vegetarian, most of it was vegan. The food was great! They also offer 8 or 10 different veggie burgers during the day.
