yummy vegan fast food

I like that this place is 100% vegan, they have good food! My boyfriend enjoyed his burger with fries and yummy sauces. I had a peruvian rice dish with A LOT of fried tofu. It was good, but so much I couldn't finish it. Luckily I could bring some home for the next day, we don't want to waste food. For my taste they could serve some fresh salad or veggies with their dishes so it isn't that dense, but I guess this is personal taste.😄We also tried their vegan cheesecake, heaven!

Pros: 100% vegan, big portions, good service, burgers but also peruvian dishes

Cons: not that cosy, very simple, could serve healthier, fresher stuff

Classy casual, great food

I came here last night craving some homestyle comfort junk food, and I was not disappointed. The KFC bowl has great, crunchy popcorn sriram bits, a couple sauces, and sublimely smooth and creamy mashed potatoes in a properly large portion. The coleslaw was delicious, if only there were a bit more of it!

I went with a non-veg friend who got one of the eggplant and fried rice dishes he loved, and the bite he shared was excellent. I’ll definitely be coming back here before I leave Lima!

Tasty vegan food

Good for fast food cravings, but ordering the seitan can leave you feeling very heavy afterwards or with an upset stomach. Nevertheless, the cauliflower wings are the best I've ever tried.

Great food

We had the vegan Lomo saltado (Peruvian specialty) and it was amazing, especially the version with mushrooms! The waiter was really friendly, too. And the dessert was even better! We came here again.

Pros: Big portions, Delicious

Disappointed

2 stars for the service and atmosphere. I really wanted to love this place but the food is just not good. I ordered the chifa once, Aka Sushi offers 100 times better. Their sandwiches are not great either. I can’t recommend eating here.

Good food, but not worth the price

I’ve had some fried noodles with tofu which was delicious and the portion pretty well sized. But in my view 30 soles is a bit too much as it is more like a an „Imbiss“ than a restaurant and the service could me a lot better.

Pros: all vegan, great choice, fast serve

Cons: Service could improve , not organic (as far as I know), a bit expensive for the value

Good vegan food; attractive decor

(Update September 2020: they are still open, with a limited number of tables available in the restaurant . They also have outside seating. A meal of the day is not currently available but they give discounts of 20% on Mondays and Tuesdays).

As of January 2020 the meal of the day Monday through Friday is 18 Soles. This includes a drink, a starter plate, the main plate and a tiny piece of cake. They usually put the week's menu on their Facebook page so that can help you decide which day to go.

Of all the vegetarian restaurants I have visited in Lima, this one has the nicest decor. I would consider it to be upscale compared to the other veggie places in town (with higher prices, as you would expect).

To me the most important thing at a restaurant is the food. The food generally has good flavor here. But an important thing to mention is that many times there's not much protein on the plate. They need to add more sources of protein in the food as vegetarians obviously need that.

At lunch, arrive no later than 1:00 p.m. to quickly get a table.

Pros: Location, Attractive dining room & patio, Flavors

Cons: Not enough protein in the meal

Good dinner

We had an amazing service and the drinks were really good!
The food was good, but was missing a ‘je ne sais quoi’, also to note.. sushi is only Wednesday and Thursday.. Friday and Saturday are a kind of tapas night, which they forgot to tell us (or we misunderstood?)
Worth going and try the specials!

Good, but not wow

We came here twice because it was close to our hostel. We had the cerviche and the andean crevice (lupin lentils and seaweed) and the lomo Saltado with seitan as well as the fettuccini with seitan. The normal cerviche came with mushrooms and was ok, but not great. (We had vegan cerviche with mushrooms at Javier in barranco. That was outstanding. Just to give you some comparison).
The lomo saltado and the fettuccini were also ok. But I expect a place called “Seitan ....” to be really good at that. And the Saiten here tastes more like soya (our taste buds :))

The sushi was quite good. We had the lomo saltado maki. that flashed us a bit.
ATTENTION:
Sushi or “noche de makis” is only Wednesdays and thursdays (as of today).

For dessert we got recommended the “ojas de fresas” (leaves of strawberries) which was really good. The whip cream came with no or only a bit sugar - on top strawberry-jam and the strawberries above were fresh. It was a very delicious experience.

Overall: For the price they are asking for we expect really good food with great ingredients and really amazing flavor. But what we got was average (uninspired) vegan food.

Pros: Great sushi (only on maki nights)

Cons: Expensive for the value , Seitan tastes more like soya

Wonderful vegan option in Lima!

The food was great and the atmosphere was quaint. The servers don't speak much English though luckily it's vegan so I didn't have to ask as many questions. I tried the two famous Lima items, Pisco sour (they make it without eggs) and ceviche (zucchini, mushroom and avocado).

Pros: Lots of vegan options, wifi, Good dessert!

Cons: A little expensive for Peru but in a nice, neighborhood and vegan food

Great vegan food

Really enjoyed coming here today after flying all morning! It was super affordable and the girl was lovely. We got bread to start and a small brownie each after we’d finished our mains- coming back for lunch again today😄

Best in town

My favourite vegan restaurant in the city, I eat there often and I’ve taken non vegan mates who really enjoyed the food too. Their daily menu is really good most of the time and their vegan sushi is the best I’ve had.

Pros: 100% vegan, Great burgers, Good location

Cons: It’s closed from 4:30-6:30pm

La comida es buena

La mayoría de los platos que he comido en Seitan han sido ricos, a excepción de la hamburguesa que no me gusto mucho, creo que deberían cambiar el pan, pero en general la comida la hacen bastante bien. El local por el otro lado, debería ser un poco mas ordenado y limpio.

Pros: Buena variedad de comida, Precios razonables

Cons: Local

One of the best vegan places I've ever eaten at

I am from California so I have eaten at some amazing vegan restaurants in the last couple years. When I decided to stay in Lima for a little over a week I figured vegan options at restaurants were few and far between so I went to HappyCow to see if there were any options in my area. On my first night in Lima, I decided to try Seitan Urban Bistro since it was so close to my hostel. From the moment I walked in I was greeted warmly and both the drink and food menu had so many options it was hard to choose. I ordered a cocktail and crispy seitan over mashed potatoes. First of all, my waitress brought over a little basket of bread, olive oil, and tapenade so I was already impressed. Next came the cocktail which was beautiful and my food which easily looked like it came out of a magazine it looked so stunning. The meal was so delicious and was actually filling which is quite a great thing when previously my options were rice and veggies at other restaurants in Lima. Once the remainder of my meal was boxed since I was so full, I was presented two small bite sized brownies which again were complimentary. I am in town for one more week and I promise I will be returning to this little gem. To make things even better a cocktail and huge plate for one came to about $10 US. I urge anyone vegan or otherwise to consider stopping by this restaurant if you are visiting Peru, it won't be a disappointment.

Pros: Amazing Food, Very reasonable prices

Decent mostly Asian-themed food

I had the California rolls (very good) and an Asian-themed noodle dish. The food was good and service was prompt, but there were only four main entrees to choose from and the menu is Spartan.

Pros: Location in safe, central Miraflores, Near Indian Market shopping center, Friendly staff

Cons: Only four main entree options, Primarily Asian-themed dishes, A bit expensive
