Nice!

Tasty food, especially the starter (crispy tofu), friendly and helpful service and a nice atmosphere. Most of the menu seems to be organic. Probably because of this it's definitely on the expensive side of things!

Holy Guacamole!

Sometimes when we're traveling, us Angelenos miss fresh avocado, so it was really great to find this chill spot in downtown Athens serving up good guacamole. The avocados are from Crete and are really nice. The food is great, the staff are super friendly and don't be surprised if they discuss metaphysics while they take your order. It's the Socratic method!

Pros: Great service, Fresh , Good variety

Cons: you might have to wait for a table

A Must in Athens!

Second time I’ve been here and look forward to coming again. Good location and nicely chilled out restaurant in the centre of Athens.

Came for lunch at quite a busy time of day but we managed to get a space upstairs at the one of the low tables. Surrounded by cushions, it made the whole time really relaxed. I went for the black bean wrap which was so filling and delicious, I didn’t need to eat for the rest of the day. And the berry burst smoothie was amazing. Prices are a little on the high side, but it’s worth it as everything is organic and tastes so much better!

Staff are always so friendly and welcoming.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Really tasty food, Friendly staff

Sentirse a gusto, comer bien

Las comparaciones son odiosas, puede que sea verdad, pero también son inevitables. Y después de la visita al Mama Tierra ayer ... y salvando las distancias (no tan grandes) económicas,, Avocado le superó en varios aspectos.
De principio a fin un trato muy cordial, creo que es lo lógico hacia el cliente, y que todos sabemos cómo debe ser. Bien.
De bebida un Ginger Passion, muy bueno, 5.60€ una jarra para casi llenar dos veces el vaso.
Para compartir Crispy Tofu, muy bien de nuevo. Y de principales Luminus Vegan y Zen Tempeh, 13.6€ ambos, nada barato ... pero sobresalientes,
En general muy buena experiencia que repetiríamos sin duda, y esa es lo mejor que se puede decir de un restaurante. De cuatro estrellas y media (puntuar con solo cinco limita mucho). Ojalá volvamos.

Pros: Servicio, Presentacion y cantidad de platos principales.

Cons: ¿Precio? 🤔

Great place

It was our first restaurant in Athenes and we weren’t disappointed at all. My husband (a non-vegan/meat eater) and I loved the food which was very tasty and delicious, good plates and great staff... we’ll go again if we have this chance ! We recommend at 100% ... that raw avocado chocolate tart : AMAZING for chocolate lovers

Really very good

We go here every time we visit Athens. The location is central, service very friendly and quick, atmosphere comfy and casual and it’s good for kids too. There’s also a health store next door so it’s perfect to stock up there on vegan snacks and holiday essentials while traveling. The first time we visited (last year) I must admit I was a little disappointed as i saw that the menu was mainly vegetarian (not vegan) which lots of cheese everywhere, but recently I either now know what to order or they put more vegan options on the menu. The food is wholesome and delicious. The tofu starter is amazing and the avocado spinach salad is great. The curry needs a little more flavor but is good and the kids loved it. The mung bean soup was excellent. My kids ear really well every time we come. Thank you and keep up the good work!

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Value for money , Extremely friendly service

Cons: Not all food is very tasty , Lots of cheese on the menu

really good food. just know what to order

i ordered the tofu appetizer, macro plate, and bengal tea. all delicious and big portion sizes. i would not recommend the apple pie “tree hugger.” personally i didn’t like it. the upstairs seating is very cozy and the staff is great. most food was organic as well and some was locally sourced.

Pros: healthy, local, organic food, lots of vegan options, great staff

Cons: more pricy than most vegan places , nasty apple pie

Great service but food not that great

The waiter was just amazing, all the staff were super accommodating, they even offered a replacement dish when I didn't like the first one and didn't charge for it. Unfortunately the second one was only marginally better, and my partner didn't really love his pasta dish either. The apple pie for dessert was delicious however, so maybe we just made poor choices from the extensive menu?

Pros: Friendly accommodating staff, Nice dessert

Cons: Food average

Amazing!

So many options, friendly service and the food was absolutely wonderful! It was so nice to find somewhere that had not only the variety of food to choose from but also the belief system of not harming animals to feed people. We ordered the avocado hummus, penne avocado (not vegan) and the zen tempeh. My daughter said the penne avocado was super creamy and had a lot of flavor. The zen tempeh has just the right amount of spice and the texture of the tempeh was perfect. As for the avocado hummus, you have got to try this! I cannot rave enough about this place. If I lived here I would eat her often 😊

Pros: Several options, Friendly service, Reasonable prices

Delicious food and extensive menu

Avocado offers so many interesting vegan dishes that it was hard to pick. In the end we had the Hummus Avocado and a Persian dish called Rumi’s Dream. I loved both of them! Besides serving excellent food, they make you feel at home with a lovely atmosphere and a very friendly staff. I’ll come back! :-)

Excellent food

I have been here many times, and I have always been satisfied with the food: excellent quality and big portions.
The last time I went I had the autumn alad, the avocado hummus, and an interesting dish with caramelized tempeh with maple syrup, red cabbage, and chestnuts. Definitely recommended.

Pros: very good food

Avocado Gets an A+

My family and I ate here on our last night in Athens. Avocado definitely lives up to its rave reviews. It has phenomenal food, is very kid-friendly and the wait staff is very attentive. Like many veg restaurants, this one was born from a yoga studio. There is an avocado theme to many signature dishes - we ordered the avocado hummus and smoothie and enjoyed both. Standouts also include the Eat, Pray, Love; Vegan Jasmine; & Avocado’s Buger. The sheep’s milk ice cream is a must for dessert. Though a vegetarian restaurant, most dishes can be made vegan if requested. Portion sizes are big, so bring one or a few loved ones with whom to share.

Pros: Ambiance , Entrees, Apps & Smoothies, Quick Service

The best

This has been my favourite restaurant on our visit to Athens. We sat upstairs on floor cushions at a low table, chilled out music playing and delicious food. My husband and I both had the poke bowl (Vegan and gluten free), My son had a pizza and my daughter had a stir fry. There are normal tables and chairs downstairs and outside for those that don't want floor cushions.

Pros: Many vegan options, chilled atmosphere, , Super friendly staff, delicious food

Cons: A little pricy but worth the money
