Luxurious vegan place - Edit
This place really caught our attention when we were searching for vegan restaurants in Bologna. The space was really well decorated, the atmosphere was calm although it was completely full and the staff was very attentive. We understood Italian reasonably well but it would've been easier if there was an English version of the menu.
Read moreOur order took a really long time but we totally understood it, that's what full house means, and couldn't be happier with our choices. Everyone was delighted even the non vegans but I have to admit that the real stars were definitely the desserts. Best chocolate mousse and cashew cheesecake ever!

Nice terrace and nice food! - Edit
As a Belgian, I was pleased to find a person who speaks french in the staff. They were very nice. The food was really good, the place really nice too: the terrace is in the shade, pretty and comfy furniture (details but still), full of plants...
Read moreI agree with certain comments: I eat very spicy and I think the dishes deserved more salt at least.
You can see that they do everything homemade, cheeses to dried vegetables.
The only thing that was sad is that the plate of vegetal cheeses was only macadamia based and then tasted relatively the same.
Quantities were OK too!
I recommend it.
Pros: Nice place, everything vegan
Cons: Cheeses homemade but similar

Tastes like earth - Edit
I was so excited to try this place. Got the train an hour for a dinner date here. Everything tastes like meat eaters thinks vegan food tastes like. The Buddha bowl was just a bunch of boiled vegetables. Some things tasted Indian and there was a flavourless hummus on there. I am not a picky eater but I didn’t finish it. Nothing has any flavour. The summer rolls were slightly better with way too much red cabbage and no flavour. Would not recommend
Read morePros: All desserts are gluten free
Cons: Expensive, No flavour

Good food and nice atmosphere - Edit
A friend of mine and I enjoyed nice and authentic Italian pasta and - a gnocchi dish. The dishes are very tasty - creamy vegan pasta sauce and home made pasta! It is true that the portions are quite small, but not smaller than in non-vegan restaurants. For me, it was filling for lunch!
Read moreWe also enjoyed dessert. We tried the cheesecake (they serve chocolate or red fruit) and the chocolate-avocado pudding. Both was very (!) delicious, but the pudding was truly amazing :)
The coffee is really delicious, too!
Pros: Entirely vegan, Central location , Fresh and home made pasta
Cons: Tables quite small, Portions a bit small

Small portions and expensive - Edit
This is a very nice restaurant, but wasn't really to our taste. It's very much 'gourmet' style vegan food with very small portions and a fairly hefty price tag. We ordered the 'squares' as a main course and it was essentially some slivers of vegetables (similar to crisps I suppose) with some cream / foam and a small amount of salad. It was certainly not filling and I wouldn't personally describe it as suitable to be a main course.
Read moreHowever the staff are lovely and the wines and beers are very nice. The location is also good, its tucked away off the main square (that might go some way to explaining the higher prices).
For a special occasion or if you want to experience fine dining done vegan style then this is probably right up your street, but if you're on a budget or have a decent appetite I'd give it a miss.
Pros: Nice staff, Lovely interior, Good location
Cons: The smallest portions I've ever seen, Expensive

Kitchen theatre - Edit
What I really liked about this place, apart from the exceptionally nice food and nice interior, is the open kitchen where you can see what the chefs are doing.
Read moreI started with a complimentary lentil and corvette soup, then I had a nice buckwheat tart with caramelised onions and plums, on a bed of lentil cream. The next dish was delicate and balanced, made up with chickpea flour crepes with parsnip cream and topped with crunchy kale.
As a dessert I went for a three-layered raw cheesecake, with a base of crushed pistachios, a layer of chocolate cream and topped with frozen pear purée. Maybe a bit too cold on the first bite, but the taste improved as long as I ate it and my palate got used to the three different textures.
Portions were okay, neither too big nor too small. Knowledgeable staff and quick service were a plus. Highly recommended.

Excellent but overpriced - Edit
Choose this restaurant if you want to explore the possibilities of the vegan kitchen. The dishes are excellent, with interesting components, and arranged creatively. A great place for a celebration.
Read moreThe downside is the price, really. Sure, I do understand that quality and setting won't come for free, but this seems overpriced, thus one star less. 14 Euro for what actually is a starter is way too much. I've spent 40 Euro only for myself, and I left still a little hungry. But everything was both interesting and tasty! 😊
Pros: Excellent food, Celebrate here!
Cons: Very, very expensive

Good desserts - Edit
Went for coffee and cake. Super yummy and lots of options. I went for dinner too, the Buddha bowl was really tasty but quite small and they sell a 1/2 sandwich for €4 (the normal sliced bread ones) which is quite pricey. Tasty food nonetheless

Decadent vegan Bolognese café - Edit
An amazing vegan place to enjoy healthy and (very) decadent cuisine. The Buddha Bowl and the Insalata Botanica that we shared with my friend were colorful and very tasty. They also have a whole range of italian inspired (vegan) and sweet and wonderful desserts and bites to enjoy. The menu evolves depending upon the team's experiments and therefore is always improved. The team is really friendly and eager to share its passion for vegan cuisine.

Best Vegan Restaurant in Italy? - Edit
There was an award showing that this restaurant was voted to be the best vegan restaurant in Italy in 2017.
Read moreI expected a bit much because of this and ended up being slightly disappointed.
The atmosphere here was wonderful, and it's such a busy place for lunch with lots of businessmen coming here for burgers!
I guess we should have paid attention to what they were ordering instead of getting the salad and the gnocchi. The salad was quite boring for the price, and the gnocchi were good but nothing out of the ordinary. The dessert, however, was delicious. I had the raspberry chocolate cheesecake and it was all that I expected from a vegan dessert in Bologna!
I think you should give this place a try but order the more popular dishes that they seem to have perfected there. That way, the money will be well worth spent.
Pros: Wonderful atmosphere, Professional staff, Excellent presentation
Cons: Expensive, More about presentation than taste

Hidden, all vegan gem - Edit
In a quiet street just off the main Piazza, this place was a great find for lunch. I had the tagliatelle with tomato sauce and the chocolate pudding (more like a mousse) for dessert. The whole menu is vegan, and the waitress says it changes quite often.

Very disappointing - Edit
I was in Bologna this lunchtime and felt I had to try this restaurant. I saw that it had mixed reviews but decided to go anyway....I walked in quite humid conditions for just under 20 minutes from my hotel near the train station. When I arrived I was told to choose a table, but was then asked to move. The food really lacked flavour and I added everything possible to bring this out. I decided not to order dessert as thought it might lead to further disappointment plus they charge for filtered water and there’s a cover charge. I found the cashier so abrupt. So disappointed and would definitely not recommend.
Read morePros: All of the dishes were vegan, Beautiful decor, Seating outside
Cons: Expensive, Abrupt staff who didn’t smile, Tasteless food
