Realy nice place to sit in

This is kinf of a more fancy restaurant.
Evry little detail is taken into consideration, from to knife and spoon to the way the food is served.
This is a real restaurant.
Ate a minestrone soup - excellent
A burger with French fries - very good
For desert 2 chocolate bars - it was well done, but if you don't like almonds / nuts taste, it will be too much for you

Drunk a good beer, was unique, don't remember its name.

Pros: Good vegan options, A realy nice place to sit in the evening

Cons: A little more expensive

Fancy-ish food

The food was quite healthy and really good. They had plenty vegan options. Only the waiter seemed a little annoyed and was not too friendly. Maybe he just had a bad day. It's still worth a visit😊

Great place to get a bit 'luxurious' vegan foods

I had a vegan burger and carrot cheescake. It was delicious! I went with people that are not vegans nor vegeterians and they loved it! I highly recommend the place. 😊

Pros: Great and healthy vegan options, Friendly staff, Great ambience

Cons: A bit pricey

My favorite restaurant

Best restaurant in Romania. I've been there a few times and all the options are delicious. If you order the cheese board you won't be able to tell which are vegetarian and which are vegan. The place is spacious and beautiful, very nice atmosphere. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful.

Creative with a great vibe - Would return!

I recommend booking as the restaurant was full when we came. Ingredient quality was high with a real attention to detail. Portions sizes are a little small with the salad. But overall we had a wonderful time here.

Pros: Perfect date night location , Great drinks menu

Cons: Expensive for the area

The food was quite bland

Nice outdoor space, nice service. The food was quite bland though (we had mushroom pate starter, creamy pasta and pad thai). Portions also quite small

Great place for vegan/vegetarian!

This place was recommended by many ppl so I came and tried it. I was there for late dinner (an hour before closing) the service was excellent, went there again for dinner at 7p and the service was not as attentive as the previous visit. Seems like this is the cool spot to hangout in town; good looking well dressed crowd.
Some of my fave dishes are: Spicy Mushroom bamboo shoot soup, kimchi rolls, sundried tomatoes sesame maki, varzā a la Cluj, polenta with mushrooms, creamy mushrooms gnocchi. Awesome selection of wines & cocktails too.

Pros: Great options vegan/veg , Cool ambiance

Cons: Service hit/miss

Likely the best vegetarian restaurant in Cluj-Napoca

Near the city center it has both indoor tables and a terrace. The menu is quite big and the food is good. The service was excellent and friendly. In one week I spent in Cluj this was where I've had my best meal. The food is diverse but perhaps lacking some vegan alternatives to local delicacies. All in all, when in Cluj, this is the place to go.

Pros: Indoor seats and terrace., Excellent service., A lot of options.

Cons: Not enough vegan alternatives to local cuisine.

Lovely food, service and atmosphere

We had high hopes from the reviews and it certainly didn't disappoint. So much choice vegan and vegetarian. Tasty and well presented. Also not overly expensive. Would go back again!

Amazing spot (with flaws)

Extremely nice restaurant with extensive indoor and leafy outdoor seating both of which are tasteful and relaxed. The outdoor sections are kept shady where they need to be. It’s a popular spot as attested by the large number of both patrons and staff. I was seated immediately English and Romanian are both spoken by staff. The menu is quite diverse and clearly marks as either vegan or vegetarian. It’s a shame they couldn’t go a little further to replace the dairy and eggs in the vegetarian dishes. I had the vegan lentil curry. It arrived in good time and tasty even if not a huge portion (other meals seemed more substantial). For dessert the wait for the the vegan tiramisu was absurdly long. On asking it was almost immediately delivered which shows they simply forgot, making me very annoyed. A ‘sorry’ might have helped. Honestly I would give them 2 stars based on my one experience but will give them the benefit of the doubt because in all other ways they seem to be one of the best vegan/vegetarian restaurants you could find.

The tiramisu is more of a traditional cake but was nice nonetheless - I would have enjoyed it more if it hadn’t taken 30 mins.
The price is a little more than I was expecting but it is an upmarket restaurant. Ultimately though I would have ordered more if it were not as much and this may keep me from coming back as often as I’d like.
There’s also a small playground and swing for younger children which is a nice touch.
If you have nut allergies you should take care as many options feature various nuts.

Pros: Extensive menu of vegan, raw and vegetarian food, Tasty, well made dishes, Excellent venue with tasteful decor

Cons: More expensive than a lot of Romanian food, The wait for dessert was ridiculous

Amazing!

Samsara is hands down my favorite restaurant in Cluj. Offers very many vegan options (burger, pasta, sushi, soups and salads, and crazy good noodles), along with unique juices with superfoods. Absolutely recommend!

Pros: Delicious food + friedly staff, Lovely terrace , Biodegradable straws

Cons: On the pricier side

Superb vegetarian restauran in Cluj

First restaurant I visit in Cluj-Napoca and what a fantastic surprise. A friend and I ate on the terrace which was beautifully decorated. The menu was extensive with all vegan dishes clearly indicated and with a broad range of products including vegetarian sushi. The presentation of the plates and their taste was simply sublime. Prices were not bad at all although perhaps compared with other restaurants in Romania it was more leaning towards the priciest restaurants. Regardless, it was worth every RON I paid and will undoubtedly come there when I visit the city again. Fantastic experience overall

Pros: Great variety of dishes, including veg sushi, Fast and friendly service, Vegan products clearly indicated
