good vegan meal - Edit
Had soup and the main lunch and it was good. With the main course comes also a little bit of salad. Everyday a changing menu. Very friendly staff who explains everything for everyone over and over again. Go check it out!

Amazing food - Edit
I went there for a lunch with a friend while ago. The food was absolutely amazing and had so much flavor to it. The portion sizes are qenuine. As a rather small eater I had to ask to give me a smaller portion and even they mentioned that I could come to ask more if I was still hungry.
Read moreThe servers were super friendly too and I would recommend anyone going there!
Pros: Food was amazing, Geruine portion sizes, Friendly service

Favorite place to eat in Helsinki. - Edit
Has a daily rotating menu, and the day's special is always either vegan or can be made vegan by subbing a side salad for a non-vegan side. Very big portions, a friendly and knowledgeable staff, and really delicious food. It's often very busy, so be prepared to join someone at their table or come early!

Unfortunately this place was closed for 3 weeks over the Christmas holidays, during our stay. Make sure to check its open and call ahead to make reservation.

Comfort food - Edit
If I lived in Helsinki, I would be tempted to eat here every day. Comfortable cafeteria-style restaurant with a meal-of-the-day, soup, desserts, coffee, wine, etc. I paid €10 for a plate with ratatouille, quinoa, green beans and salad. Tasty and satisfying. The green beans were overdone, but that happens in restaurants with food made in advance. My second visit, the plate was a big bean-corn patty with avocado ‘cream’ sauce, sautéed red pepper and onion, salad, yellow rice with black olives and spelt bread (all vegan). My impression was that the daily meal is always vegan or veganizable.

Delicious food! - Edit
We had been walking around Helsinki all morning in the rain, so were tired, cold, wet & hungry! Came into Zucchini, and helpful staff explained (in English) how their lunch/price system worked. We had the dish of the day for 9.50 euro, which consisted of caribbean curry, sweet potato mash, broad beans, salad, bread & water. It was delicious, warm & filling, and I really regretted not splurging the extra 2 euro for the nettle soup! Would definitely go here again, only wish they were open in the evenings as we struggled for dinner!

Lovely whole food lunch - Edit
I was absolutely satisfied with this place. It seemed to be a set menu on the day, served from the desk. Comfy inside & not too crowded when I got there. A large serving with bread for about 10 euro. I wish I made it back there!

Best vegetarian lunch in town - Edit
This is the only vegetarian restaurant I would warmly recommend in Helsinki. The food is good and beautifully served. Vegan option is available for request. The portions are big enough, the price meets the quality. The stuff is friendly and helpful despite the crowd and hassle and the atmosphere is cosy. I wish they would be open at weekends too.
Read morePros: Vegan option always available, Price, Service
Cons: Only lunch, Crowded

Great home style veggie food - Edit
I have have eaten here one time and the beetroot loaf was just delicious. It's not a buffet, so the food is being served at the desk and you have to ask for vegan option (under the desk). It's only open lunch hours and very crowded. I felt the warm foods are better here than in Silvoplee that concentrates in raw foods.
Read morePros: Taste
Cons: Crowded, Opening hours

Lovely little place not to be missed - Edit
We went to Zucchini for lunch twice whilst we were in Helsinki and loved it. The staff were helpful and fully understand what vegan means! We had their lunch special on both days which could be made vegan. The first day was a french style cassoulet served with barley (or millet for gluten free) and salad. You help yourself to bread and they have gluten free bread(more like a cracker!) too. It was quite reasonable (for Helsinki) at 9.5 euros. Portions are huge.
Read moreThe second visit - the lunch was jacket spud with a lovely tomato/bean casserole and salad. We indulged on their vegan dessert too which was served with soy cream.
Loving it!
Pros: huge portions, reasonably priced, helpful and friendly staff

Zucchini, Helsinki - Edit
I've eaten here on a few visits to Helsinki and enjoyed it every time. It's located fairly centrally at maybe a 20 min walk from the main train station. The biggest draw back about this place is the restricted opening hours.

Cons: Limited opening hours
