good food but not cheap

the food is quite good but prices are a bit high for what you get. there is a menu for 30 eur per person or single dishes for around 12 euro, but i was still hungry after that. pity.

the regular waiter didn't understand us but the owner (I guess) spoke good english and was very friendly and correct.

Pros: good food, friendly service

Cons: expensive for what you get

Decent no frills food

Walked into the place and was seated immediately as I was the only person. This is the type of place I just let the waiter recommend what I should have.

My first dish received was a lentil soup with papadum, which is a thin, crackly piece of bread. I used the bread to scoop up lentils. Next came the main course which was two meat balls that were crunchy (delicious), with rice and chutney. This dish was good. Last came a salad which was just a salad.

Overall I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to seek this place out but would have it if you need quick sustenance.

Buono e sano

Rispetto agli altri ristoranti indiani a Roma, molto più sano e delicato, oltre che privo di carne in ogni piatto.
Ottimo anche il Golden milk.

Nice food

I liked most of the food here! Some really delicious flavours but was let down by the salad which was essentially lettuce leaves with a lot of olive oil. Very friendly staff. No music so the ambience wasn’t really there.

Why

Je ne comprend pas pourquoi ce restaurant est sur happy cow C’est n’importe quoi nous nous somme assis et nous somme parti. Deux serveur qui court partout qui font la vaisselle la cuisine et le service très peu de choix on comprends rien et en plus il ne prévienne qu’à la fin du repas qu’il faut payer en cash je le déconseille ce n’est pas ici que vous aller trouver une bonne cantine végane

Qualità, sapore e cortesia

Gestito da un vero vegetariano da 40 anni, offre un menù dal sapore speziato e molto gustoso.
Il menù è limitato ma affidatevi alla scelta proposta dalla casa e non sarete delusi.
Il tutto in un ambiente accogliente e grazioso

Pros: Tutto vegetariano , Piatti saporiti

Just plain horrible

The night was late, we had had a really long day and were very hungry. No other options seemed to be close by (that were open and we knew of) so we thought ok whatever let’s go here - we would have been better off if we would have bought a banana at the convenience store instead and gone to sleep.

Not healthy, not tasty, no English. We were told that it is not possible to order a la carte which is what we were planning do. there seemed to be only one person working in the kitchen & service at the same time... You have to eat whatever they make. A bowl of rice, lots of bread for 20 euros - not a single vegetable, barely any sauce 🤦‍♀️ not kidding...

Excellent flavor central and friendly

All vegetarian, all vegan options clearly labeled. It's mostly Indian food it seemed, I had a wonderful dosa and lentil soup and my partner had samosas n curried veggies that we great. They spoke English. And it is located very central to the "wedding cake". The restaurant is inside a spiritual book store, on a nice quite side street. I would go back.

Pros: Central, vegan options clearly labeled, clean

Cons: Medium price range.

Great Ayurvedic food

Cosy place, friendly staff, yummy Ayurvedic Indian food. I ordered the New Delhi style hummus with raw vegetables, and the lentil dhal with brown rice. Both dishes were nicely spiced and quite large. The Ayurvedic herb tea is not to miss.

Pros: Most of the menu is vegan , Very good dishes

Amazing Indian food

I had the dosa and laddhu cake for dessert - both were amazing. Staff were very friendly. The restaurant is aptly named as half of the space is occupied by a library on all things India. They allow you to browse and read the books. Try the Ayurvedic tea!

Pros: Yummy vegan food

Best food in Rome!!

Food was absolutely amazing and menu is almost completely vegan! I got the brown basmati rice with curried vegetables and a lemon tart for dessert! The staff was also super friendly and service was great! Cannot say enough good things about this place 😊

Delicious cake!

Back in 2015 had the Maharaaj Thali main between 2 and it was plenty. I'll never forget the almond and pear gluten free cake. I'd go back to Rome just for it! Friendly owner came over to talk to us. Cultural feel of Italian-Indian fusion.

Good but expensive

Good food but very small portions and a bit expensive. Don't go if you are really hungry 😁 otherwise better a tea with a slice of cake in the afternoon

Delightful

The restaurant is very cosy, owned by a lovely American lady. The menu is almost 100% vegan. The food was delicious. Try the apple crumble!
