Piacevole cena a due passi dal centro di Bologna

Un’ottima esperienza culinaria dove la ricerca incontra il mondo vegetale, abbiamo provato gli gnocchetti lilla con crema di anacardi e la tagliata redefine meat, a cui va un punto di merito per come è stata trattata. Nel locale si respira un’aria accogliente, inoltre il servizio si è dimostrato attento e gentile. Consiglio la prenotazione.

Botanica Lab ❤️

Amazing food in a beautiful restaurant. They offer some North American dishes, but I recommend going Italian with the gnocchi and similar options. They are so worth it! Great service, too.

Great food!

I loved everything I tried! The server was very nice and the food was excellent. The chocolate Pistachio cheese cake was amazing! I highly suggest making a reservation, as there are not many tables and the restaurant was full when I was there.

Pros: Great food, Nice Staff

Medio

Locale molto carino e di bella atmosfera. Bella la presentazione dei piatti. Personale cordiale.
Premetto che ho preso solo il burrito, I plin e la crema catalana. Forse avevo aspettative alte, ma non mi ha entusiasmato.
Ai plin mancava sapore, il burrito aveva troppi condimenti ( una salsa arancione e il formaggio vegetale) che coprivano gli altri ingredienti., la crema catalana era troppo liquida. Avrei utilizzato insaporitori come kombucha o kefir per dare un tocco in più.
Visto l’alto gradimento di quasi tutti, il problema probabilmente è mio, perché mi piace mangiare più semplice.

Penso seriamente che questo sia il mio ristorante preferito, ci sono stato quest'estate e da allora non riesco a smettere di pensarci.

Vegan Oasis

After a week struggling to be vegan in this part of Italy, I was so happy to have a fresh and tasty meal and glass of wine here. The location is great, tucked on a side street in the city center with outdoor space, inside looked lovely too. The staff was a wee bit aloof but overall great place.

Beauty and taste

Lovely restaurant for a special night, yet very affordable!

The spring roll and soup were lovely. Not the biggest fan of tortellini here, could do with more sauce?! the drinks were lovely too 🍸

Top Notch Vegan Food In Bologna

Botanica Lab is a centrally-located vegan restaurant with a menu that allows you to try something a little bit different should you choose. For the less adventurous, there are also options like burgers and a wrap. The food was fresh and bursting with flavours. The atmosphere was chilled and the staff were friendly and helpful. Would go there again in a heartbeat

Pros: Good food, Atmosphere, Sides and desserts

Dissatisfied

I was really hungry and wanted to like it but the food lacked flavor, the texture was off. I ordered a tomato soup and it was thick as porridge. I also got the spring rolls which lacked vegetables but had a heavy amount of cream. Felt heavy when it’s a dish that should be light and crunchy.

Pros: The place was pretty

Cons: Soup , Service , Spring rolls

Ottimo!

Se siete a Bologna dovete andarci, ma ricordatevi di prenotare perché potreste non trovare tavoli liberi.
Abbiamo assaggiato tre piatti e un dolce, era tutto ottimo!
È stata veramente una cena piacevole e soddisfacente tanto che il mio uomo onnivoro mi ha chiesto di ritornarci.

Pros: Tutto vegano, Dolci

Cons: Alcune sedie dei tavoli all’aperto sono scomode.

Really nice food!

We had the triangles, the burrito, the unfried vegetables and the creme brulée. The first two were really great. We took the vegetable side dish because we thought that the main would not be enough, but we were not that hungry, so it was a bit much. The desert was nice.

Quite good, but could be better

The restaurant itself has a really nice atmosphere and the menu is inventive and something different. The presentation is beautiful and the dishes tasted nice, although it was not spectacular. After all the great reviews, we expected a bit more but it was just standard, to be honest. The dishes itself were not huge so we ordered a side dish as well.

Pros: Varied and inventive, Nice atmosphere

Cons: Tasted a bit boring , Small portion sizes
