Vegetarian platter is refreshing! - Edit
The vegetarian platter was good, but had quite a lot of items with dairy in it. Luckily I was sharing with a vegetarian who ate those bits — but be mindful if you’re vegan & having it on your own. The falafel were incredible but quite oily. Seating is all outside with nice ambience, but the servers took away all our cutlery before we finished eating for some reason. Would’ve gone back otherwise, but still a good option if you’re vegan😄

Correcto y agradable - Edit
Restaurante iraní con platos vegetarianos, alguna opción vegana no del todo bien identificada (adjunto carta en la fotografía, precios de 2023).
Read moreEl plato vegetariano es una ración generosa y sabrosa, pero me resultó un poco seco en general, eché en falta más untables para los bocados y falafel. La masa de las empanadas buenísima, pero con poco contenido.
No había probado previamente comida iraní, es posible que mi valoración se vea influida por el desconocimiento.

The Empanadas are good - Edit
This place is my first stop when I landed in Cuba, and honestly it was Ok, I give it a 3/5 …i liked that they have a 3 vegan options, the platter, the burger and the wrap, which I had all three of them, the empanadas to me was the best item. I do still appreciate them for having vegan options.
Read morePros: Couple of vegan, mostly vegetarian options, Nice staff, Somewhat affordable
Cons: Not very tasty, Small portions, Food a bit overcooked

Middle Eastern in Havana - Edit
We had 2 vegetarian platters which were fairly good. Although we realised one of them had tuna in the potato salad which wasn't great. The falafels and babaganoush were nice. Pretty surroundings. Not sure how much of it was vegan.

Nice persian food - Edit
I liked this place. It has style and they offer quite a few vegetarian dishes. Some of those veggie dishes are or can be made vegan if you ask for no dairy. I've tried their naan filled with falafel and veggies. It was pretty good. They usually serve it with masto khiar which is a yoghurt based sauce but I asked for no dairy and they gave me some other sauce. Second time I went there I wanted to have their veggie burger but they were out of bread which reduced my options and I had falafel again but with lentil rice instead. They also have interesting persian inspired drinks.
Read morePros: tasty, more veggie options than in most places in Cuba, price is not bad either
Cons: they could have more dairy free options :)

Iranian food - Edit
They have a vegetarian section on the menu and found plenty of vegan food. The falafel was good (and I'm not usually a huge falafel fan). We were served on a patio overlooking a garden, so the atmosphere was very calming. It's also right next to a park.

It is not easy to cook Iranian dishes with Cuban ingredients, but this restaurant does a wonderful job. The variety plate included a delicious vegetable tart and well-made falafel.
Read morePros: Lovely setting, beautiful presentation, All dishes were delicious, Non-veg options for my non-veg partner

Poor Parrot - Edit
The food is okay-ish with more vegetarian options than in most Cuban restaurants. But they keep a parrot in a small cage as a decoration, so if you care about animal welfare, don't go there.

Good food but took some time - Edit
Nice staff and good food. Nothing crazy amazing but it was the best veggie friendly food I’ve been to in Havana so far. Drinks were good too I had the pina colada and my partner had a Mojito. My drink was good but his was very strong, be sure to mix it.

Lovely setting, several vegan options - Edit
We came here twice during our stay in Havana, as it has more vegan options than most. They have a full page of vegetarian options, most of which can be made vegan. We had the falafel wrap which was tasty but quite small. The highlight was the coconut dessert, cucurucho. It's not vegan, however, as it contains honey.
Read moreThe make the nicest iced tea I had Havana, and their garden makes for a lovely place to spend some time on a hot afternoon.
Pros: Good food, Friendly staff
Cons: Small portions

loved this place - Edit
Really cute place, lovely decoration, friendly staff and delicious food!! We ordered two vegan plates (specify that you want the vegetarian plate as a vegan one, so without yoghurt and the herbal omelette that contains eggs). You can order everything that is on this plate separately as a bigger version. Definitely recommend this place, great vibes!

Nice atmosphere - Edit
Beautiful place with a nice atmosphere and cozy vibe in Vedado. They have a separate vegetarian menu which is mostly vegan. I had a mixed platter that was quite good, perhaps a bit bland. Though there were only tourists at the restaurant it didn't feel touristy.

A must visit in Cuba! - Edit
I visited this place twice while in Havana. The salads were good portions and fresh enough. The falafel were hot and crispy. The falafel wrap was a little weird, they cooked the lettuce into the wrap, but the lack of veg options in Havana make this place worth visiting. The staff is very nice.
Read morePros: It exists!, Friendly staff, Good Falafel
Cons: Weird loud buzzing sound

Average food quality but good veggie options. - Edit
It's hard to find vegetarian food in Havana so this is a good option if you'e in the Vedado area. It has a vegetarian menu with some vegan options. The food quality is average but when you're in Havana there's not exactly a lot of choice on offer!

Unique gem in Havana - Edit
Topoly is an Iranian restaurant located in the Vedado area of town. It has both outdoor and indoor seating with friendly waiting staff.

For vegetarians there are around 7 options available.
Pros: Variety of food available, Peaceful outdoor seating, Upmarket feel
Cons: Vegetarian menu could be bigger, Serves meat, Can be quiet during breakfast
