Nice vegan brekki

I had the vegan breakfast option, which came with a sort of warm maca (and almond milk?) smoothie and a really tasty soya meat 'burger'.

Only downside was that they don't serve 'real' coffee. They only had a barley coffee on offer.

My advice would be to go here for breakfast, then about a block up the road to the organic coffee place (Arabica), do what you're doing in Miraflores / Barranco, then come back to La Verde on the same street for lunch / dinner.

Pros: Vegan breakfast of champions

Cons: No real coffee

Comida Vegana Deliciosa en el Centro de Miraflores

He ido tres veces a Sabor y Vida y cada vez me gusta mas y mas. Averigüe en la pagina de facebook antes de ir para ver el menú del día! La comida siempre esta buenasa y te llena. Los anticuchos veganos son increibles (pero a veces muy salados)!

Updated from previous review on 2017-01-04

Pros: Barato, Bien Localizado, Buen Servicio al Cliente

Cons: No es 100% Vegano

basic but great!

Dont get confused by the a bit shabby atmosphere. Tasty peruvian veggie dishes! I just tried the vegan ceviche, totally authentic - no need to go for the fishy version!
No high end place, a basic "comedor", no tourists, authentic and friendly!

Good and cheap

I ate there many times, and I have nothing to complain for. Compared to the other restaurants in the area, the food is quite good (enough) and the price reasonable (even though you may find cheaper). They change the set menu everyday (3 options for the starters, 3 options for the main course), and the menu also includes a beverage, a dessert and bread, for 11 soles (12 soles on Sunday).
This place is really a good option to get people to discover typical Peruvian food in its vegetarian/vegan option, so I brought family and friends there in order to make them taste classics like the ceviche, the tamal o the carapulcra.
There's usually at least one vegan option, and you can always ask for a vegan one (when possible). The waitresses and the boss are very friendly (well, compare to the usual service in this part of Lima) and the atmosphere is nice for a comedor.
Portions are well served and usually the food is good, although they use a little too much TSP to my opinion. Also, I'm not fond of the bread they serve, and the dessert is often something like the mazamorra morada, which I don't really like.

Pros: Typical Peruvian food (veg), Quite cheap

Cons: Sometimes flavourless

Good & cheap vegan Peruvian food

In Peru, lots of businesses close on Sundays, so props to them for staying open even though they do charge a little more on said day (12 soles). Like many other places, they offer a daily set lunch that includes bread, a drink, an appetizer, a main course, and a simple dessert. A ton of food for merely US$4. They have a regular menu as well where you can order a la carte if you're so inclined. We got two different sets and had a soup, a vegan ceviche, a lomo saltado with seitan, and another seitan dish in red sauce. Food was good, service was fast, and we left happy. I just wished they had brown rice instead of white. Also, as the previous reviewer pointed out, you do get loads of carbs in one sitting. But, to be fair, it just seems to be how Peruvian food is like in general. It's certainly not something that's specific to this place.

Pros: great value, open sundays

Cons: white rice

Healthy, Filling, Inexpensive

The set menu is only 10 soles as of May 2013 and includes choice of 3 appetizers, choice of 3 mains, bread, dessert, and a drink; quite a good deal. The dishes are healthy and filling, all the appetizers being based on vegetables and all the mains (today) including soy protein, vegetables, and rice or pasta. I was pleasantly surprised that the juice/herb drink wasn't all sugar, a rare find! That made me feel like they had customers' health in mind.

The place is calm, casual and positive, with quick service. Enjoyable and would go back on a daily basis!

Pros: Healthy and filling, Inexpensive, Pleasant environment

Cons: I don't believe there are other choices

nice juice

Fruit juice (melon) was fresh and delicious! Also had a fruit salad which was good except for one very floury apple. Nice decor with fresh flowers. Rest of the menu looked enticing.

quirky gem in Miraflores

This is a great little place! Located just a few blocks from Almazen. Lots of Lima quirkiness going on here, it's in a funky old house with more character than most places in Miraflores. Had some great Chinese rice, very nice veg ceviche, and a few other dishes here, never went wrong. Atmosphere was straight up 70's (including the disco they were playing). Arrive before 5.

Pros: hearty, quirky, fun

Cons: lacking flair, closes early

Good food and good price!

This was our first vegetarian experience in Peru and it was overall very positive. The food was good and was one of the few places we actually got to eat tofu as opposed to the soy meat (which is really wheat gluten) that proliferates everywhere else. The dishes were flavourful adaptations of traditional Peruvian staples and very delicious. The atmosphere is calm and quiet and the service was good.

Pros: Good food, Good value, Nice people

decent food

The carne de soya was really good. I agree with the previous review that there are too many starch products on the plate. Though they were made well. The staff/owner was very friendly and served me even though I came after hours.
