    They're aren't many vegan places in Colombo, so I'm really glad this place exists! It's a bonus that the food tastes so good and is affordable! The "submarines" come in very generous sizes if you're hungry. I highly recommend the cheese kothu with tofu, the flavour and texture are amazing They make their own seitan and vegan cheese too 🤩

    Great food, friendly staff, and a calming vibe. The overall experience was beyond excellent. A small hiccup with our visit was the unavailability of submarines after we placed the order. However they made every effort to get the ingredients down and fulfill our order. The taste of the food was exceptional and anything with fried crispy mushrooms was mouth watering. The hot chocolate was so rich and tasty. Most of all the experience was guilt free since everything was vegan. The value for money was superb too. Would recommend to all vegans and non vegans. Will definitely visit again!.

    All the vegan faves in one place in Colombo. This is a must try place if you’re in Colombo/Nugegoda. My favourite was the kochchi kottu and mushroom nuggets

    In my opinion the best vegan place in town. The pizza is very tasty, not greasy. My favorite is the Pesto pizza. If you've never tried this place, you will be amazed. Now you can even pay your food with crypto through Binance Pay

    The best place for delicious vegan food! Friendly, helpful staff, and great ambience! Whenever I'm craving some fast food, these people are the first thing that come to mind! Everything from their pizzas to their burgers are so FREAKING good! I especially recommened the crispy mushroom burger and the devilled mockmeat pizza; two of my all-time favourites! Cruelty-free comfort food heaven! I'm so grateful for a business like this that values ethics as well as providing a great culinary experience. This place really proves how veganism is not a restriction at all, and food can be brilliant without animal products! Takeaway, delivery, and dine-in are all great experiences (personally prefer delivery)! 🥰

    We loved the food they served. Considering it's vegan and it's rare to find vegan restaurants in Sri Lanka they do a fantastic job. Owner was very friendly and helpful. Mushroom burger was delicious and loved the chocolate milk shake which they have used soy milk as a substitute for cow's milk. Fries, spring rolls, noodles and the cream of mushroom soup served with crunchy toasted bread were lovely. Heads up for the people who are going to try the cream of mushroom soup, please do not expect it to be the usual creamy and milky soup because it' vegan. We loved it though. All the food items were freshly made and we could feel it in first bite. The prices were way reasonable than we expected. Vegan options are quite expensive in our country but we had a full meal (guilty free :D) for a reasonable price. We will definitely visit the place again and recommend to anyone.

    The Vegan Pizza was amazing. The taste was much more similar to a premium level pizza. Can Guarantee that each and every ingredient used was 100% Vegan .The Vegan Oven Provided us a great customer service too. Its recommended for both locals and foreign vegan food enthusiasts

    I ordered for the second time and was not pleased with their performance on the second time. First time it was a fried mushroom burger with sweet potato fries both which were very tasty. Second time ordered two fried rice and devilled mushroom which were way too spicy specially when i had added a special note saying "less spicy". They had even written less spicy on the box as well. If that was their 'less spicy' i can only imagine the more spicy version.

    Good business model but Veganism is a self inflicted curse. Just saying. Don't get triggered.

    I have never experienced such culinary ecstasy as I did at the Vegan. From the moment I walked through the door, my senses were awakened by the mouth-watering aroma of fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. The decor was elegantly understated, with a rustic charm that perfectly complemented the food. But it was the dishes themselves that truly left me in awe. Each one was a masterpiece of flavor, texture, and presentation. Every bite was a revelation, bursting with bold and complex tastes that danced on my palate. The chefs at this vegan restaurant are true culinary geniuses, crafting dishes that are not only delicious but also visually stunning. I started off with the Kochchi koththu, which was a symphony of contrasting flavors and textures. I have never tasted anything like it before. The flavors were so vibrant and fresh, and the textures were so perfectly balanced. It is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates the finer things in life, and it is a true gem in the culinary world. In short, dining at the Vegan was a once in a lifetime experience that left me feeling deeply satisfied, both gastronomically and emotionally. I can't wait to come back and try more of their creations.

    It had a nice, friendly and a quite ambience. Love the food. However the glass bottle in which the water was served wasn't that clean. Apart from that the service was really good.

    Since it turned Vegetarian I never found the perfect burger. I used to love the Crispy Chicken McSpicy at Mac but their Veggie burger was awful. Most places have an awful patty - For the first time in 2+ years, I found a place that had a Crispy Mushroom Burger that's SO GOOD. OMG. The bun was so soft and the vegetables in it were super filling and the Crispy Mushroom itself was delicious. Looking forward to ordering more!

  • 5/5 Nishan P. 3 years ago on Google
    This is the only premium vegan restaurant in Boralesgamuwa ! if you want to relax and have a coffee, read a book, hangout with friends or your love, this is the best place in town. Also you can have delicious vegan foods from this restaurant. I'm not a vegan, but i go to this place at least once a week.

    We arrived in the cafe from the other end to the city ( the journey took a half an hour) , but We were told that it was ready to feed us only cakes . There is also garbage everywhere around the cafe. A very unpleasant experience

    Best vegan place and good customer service. Burgers are so delicious rather than Maca's ❤️❤️

  • 5/5 Senesa T. 2 years ago on Google
    Love how they have local foods with vegan twists like Kottu and also food like burgers, submarines and ice cream. They have generous portions at affordable prices (food is 100% worth the price) and delicious mouthwatering food, hands down one of the best restaurants in Sri Lanka, I recommend visiting it whether you're vegan or not. The restaurant itself has a cozy and aesthetic vibe and the servers are friendly too!!

  • 5/5 Lochana R. 1 year ago on Google
    Tasty foods. You can have mushroom tofu and mock meat subs burgers wraps etc. Friendly service. Nice interior. Adds service charge for dine in. All vegan food.

  • 5/5 Marnix B. 1 year ago on Google
    I was surprised by how good the food was! The food was really tasty and portions were more than big enough! The owners really put effort into making the best recipes possible with love. It was super lovely to talk to Nagod, one of the two brothers who owns the restaurant, about veganism in Sri Lanka and his own reasons for veganism. Aparantly sometimes they hold documentary screenings and parties at the restaurant. Best hub for veganism in Colombo!

  • 4/5 Amalan Dhananjayan (. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered Jumbo Deviled Mock Meat Kothu. Kothu is Amazing, lots of vegetables and the sauce they have used also added a good flavour to it. Quantity is regular, when I read Jumbo I expected 2 times the size of what I got. Quantity is not worth the price. The package is really bad I got it on the regular plastic lunch container used by everyone, for some unknown reason the container is split and the food has gone into the bag. Adding a 4 star as the food is really good. Will be ordering in the future and will have an eye on the quantity and packaging and will update the rating accordingly.

    Lovely place! Has a nice, neat and cozy ambience. We had the wraps which tasted amazing. The waffles are great too. The staff here are great and extremely friendly.

  • 2/5 yasitha p. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice place and good service. But when compared with other similar places it seems bit expensive. Portion size also not enough. I took one cheese pasta (900.00) and kochchi Kottu. But no cheese were found in the pasta and also no kochchi in the Kottu. Only happy about the service.
