Loveless food - Edit
Unfortunately we didn’t have a good experience at Aubergine (we were very hopeful after reading the good reviews here at Happy Cow). The salad was extremely spare (only salad with 4 pieces of feta and aubergine), the pita bread was old and the vegan shaksuka was like Indian tomato sauce with large tofu chucks. The service was also very unfriendly. We had to wait quite a while and the were very abrupt and a tip was almost forced. Advice for the waiters, be friendly and smile for a tip….
Read morePros: Lots of vegetarian and vegan options
Cons: Untastefull food , Unfriendly service

Real tasty food - Edit
This could be an only vegan restaurant, but it's not.

This is the best restaurant I have been eating at during this summer vacation!
Real interesting interior also if you visit the second floor.

Perfect vegan food - Edit
This small restaurant became my favorite place in Bucuresti from the first bite. I would eat there every day. The food kisses you from the inside ❤️ The only thing that concerns me - some dishes they serve in aluminum tableware, that is not the healthiest option, though it looks nice. So if you don’t wish to use this kind of tableware, you should ask for a regular plate.
Read morePros: Big menu, Tasty food
Cons: Aluminum plates

Open late and an OK place to eat - Edit
Nice location and food is OK, but unlikely to return. The young guy was good at his job, but when he finished and the older colleagues took over they were not as welcoming.

HORRIBLE Service! - Edit
the worst service from the waitress ever.
Read moreasking the brand of the tofu and where it is grown.
the waitress show the sign that im stupid in the head and get the package.
i ask what does this mean on the package does it mean non gm? (its written in romanian)and the waitress say that she dont eat tofu no idea.
then she takes my order and go and laugh in the kitchen with the staff very loudly.
This is clearly the worst veggie place i have ever been in and they count meat as healthy food too as i remember almost surely they had it on menu and write healthy food outside.
i found another place called xclusive (open late) that had very good veggie burger 500meters up the street into the old town other days.and also vegan italian pasta and supernice service.
i can recommend that place instead.

Innovative - Edit
There is a separate vegan section in their menu, which I appreciate a lot. I liked the combination of ingredients and tastes in the dishes I ordered. I do not like the location, since it is in a really crowded area of the city.

Good service, expensive - Edit
We ordered two-in-one soup: sweet potatoes and mushrooms in one plate- I didn’t like it😒
Read moreThe plate with falafel was delicious, like freshly baked bread.
We also ordered mushrooms in some kind of juice, delicious, but you probably need to order a side dish with it.
Pros: Nice service:)
Cons: Expensive , It was difficult to choose something vegetarian

Lots of delicious vegan options - Edit
This place offers so much vegan food. We had soup for starter, mushrooms and tofu on a bed of quinoa for main along with breads and rice. My boyfriend had sea bass as he is not a vegan. So pleases all parties. The decor is amazing inside too, plus the servers are so kind and helpful

We had an amazing dinner here, ordering 4 dishes that we shared. Staff was super friendly and spoke perfect English. You order through an iPad and there is a whole separate vegan menu with pictures and detailed info with lots of options. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and very healthy. Nice atmosphere in the restaurant as well.

Great for vegans and meat eaters alike - Edit
Aubergine was great- funky, cozy decor, friendly service, and most importantly an extensive vegan menu! It's rare to find a restaurant where my husband (who eats meat) and I are both completely satisfied, but this was perfect for everyone.
