Simple and small

Nice cafe with simple food. There is a big plus here - combo lunches. But as for my opinion the portions is too small for the prise. And unfortunately food is cold sometimes. Maybe it's possible to warm up it in a microwave, but it's kind of strange.

Cons: Serving size

veg canteen

to those familiar with Jagannath in Moscow — Rada is quite similar. it’s a vegetarian canteen-like cafe with mostly Indian food. if you’re looking for a cheap, fast and hearty meal, that’s the place for it.
I didn’t enjoy it as much as Jagannath, though.

Pros: cheap, fast, hearty meals

Cons: canteen-like

Cheap but not that good

I'll give it 3 stars because the food is cheap, healthy and there's a lot of vegan options (I'm an ovo-vegetarian) which is something already good enough since I was travelling. However I must say that the food wasn't really tasty at least for what I'm used to. It's passable but there's way better stuff in town

Pros: Cheap, Healthy , Many vegan options

Cons: Not really tasty, Not the best design

Fantastic food

Excellent variety of healthy food that was also very tasty. We had a large group that staff went out of their way to accommodate. They had lasagne which was a great hit with the kids. Their broccoli soup and dal soup was also hugely popular. Desserts were very yummy. Staff spoke some English - enough to explain ingredients. Totally recommend this place

Try their soups!

It’s the only place that I know that serves great vegetarian solyanka and borsch. If you’re a vegetarian tourist it’s a good chance to try them! Desserts and drinks are usually really good too.

Everything else here is hit or miss, it can be pretty bland or have generic indian-ish spices in every dish but it’s never really terrible, usually filling and inexpensive. Some items are pretty delicious though.

It’s clean and staff is nice, they usually have somebody who speaks English or at least can point you vegan dishes.

Pros: Great soups , Inexpensive ,

tasty buffet

Vegetarian buffet with friendly, English speaking staff to point out vegan options. Most dishes are cold but they have a microwave available so you can heat your food up. Lots of options available and food is good. Freshly squeezed orange juice was fresh and cold. Have been back a few times during our time in saint Petersburg and would reccomend!

great place!

Good food and good selections.
Just watch out for the address, they probably moved or something becuase the address takes you cross the street,
Staff are mostly friendly and speak enough english to get by.

Quite a nice place

For some reason it was a bit difficult to find this place by the map, even tho it's situated right on Gorokhovaya street (on the right side if facing Sadovaya street that is like 20 meters away).
There are some vegan options to choose from. I ended up ordering the olivier salad (it was okay, but the taste is a bit weird, and the vegan sausage wasn't yummy), chickpea 'meatball things' - they're called koftas and are denser than falafel - with buckwheat (pretty good but not warm), carob drink (tastes good when hot but tends to leave sediment on the bottom of the pot so make sure to stir it), and for dessert a fig energy ball (tasty, has little crunchy seeds inside) and an oatmeal cookie (delicious, my favorite part of the meal).

Pros: the staff is willing to help with choosing food, pretty cheap, quick (self-)service

Cons: not very cosy

Nice, good and reasonable

This place has a lot of options to choose from, if you come early, because once it's finished, that's it. The menu changes per day, so if you go more often, you won't have to eat the same all the time. English is not spoken easily, but they try hard to help you. Because you can look at the buffet what you're getting, it's easier to imagine what you're ordering. Everything is weighted, so you pay exactly for what you get. Apart from cash, you can also pay by (Maestro) debit card. Not that it's expensive here, on the contrary.
The food tasted well, but unfortunately the buffet doesn't keep it really warm. They heat it up in the microwave for you, but it seems that this machine is either heavily underpowered, or just broken.
The entourage is modern, clean and yet also cozy. You can spend here some time. Some of the guests were singing softly while I was there, which added to the atmosphere.
This is a place that I definitely recommend.

Pros: Good food, Nice atmosphere, Reasonably prices

Cons: Food not very hot, Sold out menu items are not replenished

Cheap and fast

Good option to eat quickly, seems like cantine, waitress are kind and speak english, vegan options. The food is not really good and was served cold but it’s cheap. Only the wraped nuts cake (desert) was delicious. We can also take away.

Ce restaurant est un bon compromis pour manger rapidement, sur le pouce. Atmosphère de cantine. Les serveurs sont très gentils et parlent anglais. Choix vegan. La nourriture n'est pas très bonne et est servie froide mais ce restaurant est sans prétention et le prix est TRES BAS. Le dessert roulé feuilleté aux noix était tout de même délicieux. Vente également à emporter.

Pros: inexpensive, fast, take away / kind waistress

Cons: not tasty, served cold

A Great Place

I've eaten here twice, there is a good selection for vegans and they even had carob desserts. I had an eggplant/tomato salad, a stew made from TVP and chickpeas, a coconut/date dessert and fresh carrot juice. It was all delicious, well seasoned and not too salty. The bill was about US$14, very reasonable. Some English is spoken, and they will fill your water bottle with filtered water if you ask. Also, they have free wifi.

Pros: Selection, Quality, Price

Plentiful Options But a Little Bland

This busy and large cafeteria-style restaurant mostly caters to a student crowd. They claim to offer Indian cuisine, and optically the dishes looked like Indian food, but it didn’t taste like Indian food in the least. No matter. If you don’t expect it to taste like Indian food, it tasted fine, if a little bland. As usual, the server had limited English capabilities, so navigating the cafeteria line wasn’t easy. I got a chicken “curry” with a large mound of kasha, a big bowl of “dal,” a potato pierogi (?) and a “curried” cous-cous salad. (I ordered so much food because this was both lunch and dinner). My taste buds didn’t sing, but the food was filling and satisfying, so I’d consider the meal a success. Cost for this two-meals-in-one was about $20.

Next door to Rada and K is Adi, a tiny vegetarian grocery store. I didn’t see any must-haves, but it’s a useful resource. Watch the hours—they closed promptly at 6 pm.

all time visiting saint petersburg we eat there

Inexpensive, clean. Hare Krishna vegetarian (half dishes with dairy products) with good selection of vegan food. Soups!!! Soups are necessary in cold russian climate!)))
