So good!!

When I went there, it was the first time I had Falafels. They were the best thing i´ve had in my life. They were so good! They came with a very big bowl of salad. 100% recommended, although what i don´t recommend are the nuggets...

Pros: cheap, good stuf, pretty place

Cons: not a lot to choose from, really bad nuggets, small place

That cheesecake tho.

We were greeted by a friendly waitress before settling in the corner of the small cafe. The decor was super upmarket, and the cake display by the till looked incredible!

The waitress's recommended that we order the Buddha bowl, quinoa bowl & something else I can't quite remember the name of. So we did just that.

Although initially we were a little annoyed about the prices (between 20-30S just for the salad bowls!!) we were quickly surprised and delighted by how incredible the food was. The dressings that came with each dish really made each bowl!

We then ordered a dessert each; I tried the chocolate & custard Apple raw cheesecake which turned out to be a little slice of heaven. My cousin had an incredible cacao nib & lucuma smoothie & my dad tried out the lime cheesecake. All of them were utterly delectable and well worth a visit, even if just to try the chocolate cheesecakes.

At 15s a pop, the desserts were far from cheap & I won't be able to afford to go back there on a backpackers budget. However, if you ever fancy splashing out, this is the place to do it!

Pros: Amazing cheesecake, Helpful staff, Quinoa bowl on point

Cons: Not backpacker prices, Salads could be bigger

Good, tasty, raw food

Raw café has a lot of vegan dish to propose, very good, very original and tasty.
The lucuma smoothie is excellent, so the pizzas ! And the desert.

But it’s not entirely vegan as they sell honey.

Pros: nice staff, tasty , localisation

Cons: price moderate, sell honey

good raw food

They had a lot of choices like pizza, nachos, sandwiches, ...
I would die for the lucuma smoothie with chocolate chips... One of the best smoothie I've tasted. The food was very good, but as often with the raw food, it's really heavy and can become a bit sicly at the end. But the amount of served food is not exaggerated. On of the best located vegan spot in Lima area.
The restaurant actually is not vegan, in the shop part, they sell bee honey (miel de abeja).

Pros: the lucuma smoothie, the speed of serving, location

Yaow

Oh yeah, this is it. The lovely and beautiful girl translated the menu for me and 10 minutes later I had an order of their vegan nuggets and a caprese sandwich - both exceptional. Will for sure go back again before I leave! Paid 15 soles each so $10 total for both dishes. Pricey for Lima but incredible food, original recipes and great service. Well worth it.

Pros: Exceptional food, Lovely staff, Original and different

Cons: A little pricey but still fair

Best spot on Lima.

This is one of the best spots I´ve eaten. ever.
From their breakfast options to their desserts, everything is just delicious. The location´s great, close to interesting spots in the city. The place itself is a bit small, so it gets crowded during lunchtime, but it´s totally worth the wait. Their salads are to die for. Try the caesar!

Pros: amazing all raw food, good location, Not expensive at all

Good but...

I've been to the Raw Cafe twice. I first tried the Pizza Viva (raw vegan pizza, 12 soles) and a dessert (8 soles, very good). The second time I had the Mediterranean Wrap, very good too. Prices are maybe a little high compared to the menus at 10, but the food is worth the price, and portions are enough for average eater.
The only thing is that the service isn't really efficient nor friendly. I don't really ask for them to become my best friends, but at least to adopt a tone or a face (I mean, a smile) a little bit more welcoming. I have no doubt they like what they do (and the food proves it) but it seems like they don't really like the customers (I don't say they actually don't like customers, but that's what it looks like). I first thought it was a bad day, but the second time was the same, and friends told me for them too. In the end, you finish eating your food, without feeling welcomed, which sounds disturbing.

Pros: Vegan food, Original recipes

Cons: Service

Amazing vegan restaurant!

It's perfect if you're into the "raw vegan" restaurants! And it's not very expensive either. I got a smoothie, kombucha, and the zucchini pizza dish for $16 USD including tip. Yes they have kombucha! It's very good food!

Pros: Menu, Kombucha, Smoothies
