😠 The staff was rude. We walked in as the place looked good and inquired about desserts and whether they had fries on the menu. To the question the waitress replied with a dry voice; "McDonalds is in that direction." I know Viennese people can be rude but that was the worst! We left immediately.

    Calm, self-serve style, vegan restaurant open until 6pm on Saturday (relatively late around here). We had 2 yummy soups, and a traditional poppy-seed cake for dessert (vegan style) and a delicious latte with oat milk.

    Great vegan place. Lots of very nice and helpful staff. Dishes were tasty and surved very quickly. You order and get a card. When you want to order more they add it to your card, and when you want to pay, you just head to the register and hand the card, and pay. The warm meals coffee and beer were great. The chocolate tart was stale and we did not finish it. Prices are a little high and for a non German speaker, we had to ask what the prices and what the dishes are. All together we had a great time.

    Yummy vegan dishes and baked goods, very sweet staff. Not all cakes are available at all times but they'll help you find everything. It seems a bit popular, so maybe it's worth reserving a table.

    We were really disappointed by our experience! The service was okay, but the food was either way too salty, strangely spiced, or tasteless. We had filled paprika, veggie patty with mashed potatoes, and a spinach role. The lemon soup was good! We can get behind the whole system of daily menus and relatively cheap cantine food, but sadly we were unlucky with our choices!

    What a gem! Venuss both surprised and delighted me. Modern and chic. They are pushing the boundaries with what is possible in plant-based eating. The staff are super friendly. Food is buffet style organic vegetarian. Inventive twists on traditional Austrian food. Plenty of very cool cakes.

  • 5/5 Elle B. 4 years ago on Google • 115 reviews
    So impressed with this place!!! Everything was so delicious. Traditional plant based Austrian food! We only wish we left room for dessert! If you’re craving delicious comfort food full of flavor and nutrition this is it! The staff was also very welcoming and friendly. We were so full and satisfied when we left. If we ever come back to Vienna this is the number one spot on our list to go back to.

    Cute vegan cafe in the city center. We had the hot chocolate, carrot cake and a muffin. Food was good, ambience was nice and quiet, waitress was friendly.

  • 3/5 Gabi S. 11 months ago on Google • 34 reviews
    Vegetarian menu, very lightly seasoned for my taste, which takes away the kick from the whole meal. Not cheap either.

  • 1/5 I. S. 1 year ago on Google • 21 reviews
    Great, unfortunately too spicy, the main course unfortunately too dry :(

  • 4/5 Selma B. 1 year ago on Google • 18 reviews
    The food was very tasty, but I found it to be too expensive for what it was

  • 5/5 Doryne A. 2 years ago on Google
    Vegan restaurant offering a large variety of dishes and pastries. We only visited for coffee and cake but the place is perfect for full meals too.

  • 5/5 German G. 2 years ago on Google
    Very delicious and great price/performance. Definitely recommend

  • 5/5 Dale B. 1 year ago on Google
    Service was quick and friendly. Food arrived fast and was warm and tasty. Prices decent for central Vienna. Ordering is now table service with printed menus in English and Austrian, so none of the confusion others encountered.

  • 5/5 E 1 year ago on Google
    Suuper good vegan place with wide offer and delicious food. In particular the hummus was yummy

  • 2/5 K. G. 1 year ago on Google
    While there was a lot of food choices, the food seriously lacks in flavour. Even a bit of salt can make it ten times better. I had the Mac n Cheese, which was tasteless. Vegan food has come so far and you can get really delicious Mac n Cheese these days. I tried really hard to make the dish look nice. But in no angle could it make it look appetizing The guy at the serving area was super nice and helpful. I can't say the same for the lady at the counter. She didn't explain to me what the service card (Konsumationskarte) was. There are menus on the seats, why couldn't I sit and order after? Really disappointed. 2 stars are for the ambience, location and the nice person serving people.

    Lovely modern, yet comfortable atmosphere and decor. Staff friendly and explained how you order food at the counter and add it to a card to pay at the end. And food was delicious and lovely range of options. Portions are a sensible size. When I tried to (mistakenly) order 2 mains the waitress kindly suggested it would be too much for me to eat :) rather than spend extra money. She was right the side and main is a perfect portion size. My little person fell asleep the street before I arrived and they patiently let me eat slowly while he napped.

    We were surprised so much!!! This place has a very simple “bistro” concept, but has a great realisation of it! Food is “home-made”, healthy in comparison to junk food vegan places. Staff - friendly. We’ve been there for several times. HIGHLY recommend.

  • 5/5 知久美咲(Hj) 2 years ago on Google
    Everyone kind. Not cheap but foods are tasty.(Just the right hot!) Maybe you can add and choose green or red vegetable sauce. I had fun! glutenfree cakes,gluten free ,traditional foods. You can use clean bathroom.

  • 5/5 Kristine L. 1 year ago on Google
    A really good and nice place to have lunch. I really like the diverse and interesting vegan options, also the fact that they offer gluten-free meals as well. My personal favourite has to be the lasagna :)

  • 4/5 Morgan G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great selection and nice atmosphere. Prices are really reasonable for the amount of food given. Super good place for some homemade vegan food:)

  • 4/5 Adrian S. 4 years ago on Google
    A bufet lunch, very interesting. They could use inactive yeast flakes for more taste.

  • 5/5 plant p. 2 years ago on Google
    Vegan buffet. Cold section, hot food, desserts, drinks. Indoor and outdoor sitting area. The interior is very comfortable, with different sitting zones. I have never felt so comfortable in a vegan cafe yet, like here! Also, it is very close to the Stephenplatz square with that beautiful cathedral. I will definitely come here again! The staff is very nice. The food is tasty, hot and ready, no waiting time!

  • 2/5 Chara P. 2 years ago on Google
    Too expensive for what offers. The chocolate was not good neither the cakes. The cappuccino was good. Nice service.

    Inspired by love for nature and the variety of regional plants, they prepare fresh meals every day – with organic and natural ingredients. Whether for breakfast, at lunch break, for a coffee or dinner there is a plant-based firework of wonderful vegan food, hot and cold at buffet, as well as delicious desserts and exquisite drinks. They offer great service for small prices. Since they buy produce from local suppliers you benefit and participate in achieving a sustainable lifestyle. In 2019 they joined “natürlich gut essen”, an association of local restaurants, buying produce from certified organic producers. Their charming bistro staff is happy treating you to perfect service and delicious meals. All products are also take-away. They only use biodegradable packaging that is free of plastic.
