Welcoming and plenty of choice - Edit
After a long morning of walking I didn’t mind waiting that bit longer for my food to come. Quality takes time and this was worth the wait

Amazing carbonara! 10/10 - Edit
I've tried their carbonara which was amazing. Also cicoria ripassata was good. As dessert I tried the tiramisu which was made with savoiardo buiscuit ( vegan of course), you could taste coffee and the cream was light. I've really enjoyed my meal and I hope to come back soon to try other dishes on the menu. Staff is friendly.

Breakfast at Buddy's - Edit
Cons: weak orange juice, acai bowl tasted like a yogurt bowl. Fruit not freshly cut. Pancakes tasted healthy.
Read morePros: yummy cappuccino, awesome hot chocolate- thick and decadent. I enjoyed the pancakes they was filling and sweet.
We also went for dessert. loved the
tiramisu, the lady fingers was very coffee like but the cream was sweet and tasty.
We also ordered strawberries and cream but the strawberries was sour.

Not to be missed in Rome! - Edit
Amazing restaurant, with great food and friendly staff! Everything was simply amazing and tasteful, especially the pasta. We just thought the tiramisu lacked a but of sugar, but also great!

Menu was massive! So many options to choose from. The menu is online and each item has a photo and all the ingredients making it very helpful! The truffle spaghetti pasta was so filling and worth the €18!

It’s true: best vegan place in Rome! - Edit
Went to Buddy multiple times during my stay in Rome and loved all the dishes I tried. They offer a lot of pinsas and pastas, classic Italian antipasti (starters) en dolci (desserts), fresh juices, and even breakfast and lunch options 🌱
Read moreA true lifesaver for vegans in Rome. I had bad experiences with other restaurants listed on HappyCow so gladly there was Buddy to count on. Prices are fair too and the staff is friendly. Will be back! 🥳
Pros: Great variety in dishes, Fast and friendly service, Good quality-price ratio

So many options!
Read moreStaff very friendly and helpful. Lots of seating inside and out.
Good portion sizes, good quality food. Bit disappointed in the pizza, base just wasn’t right, I had a better pizza at an omni place elsewhere. But overall really happy and enjoyed all the food I had here, hence coming back here again and again 😍
Pros: Variety of menu choice , Friendly staff, good spoken English , Great food
Cons: Not obvious you have to use the menu on your phone

Très sympa - Edit
Restaurant bien placé et superbe déco cosy. Du choix dans la carte (salades, pinsas…) nous avons pris le pinsa diavola et la salade cesar. La pinsa était très bonne et bien relevée. Mais la salade avait beaucoup trop de sauce. C’en était presque écœurant hélas.
Read morePros: Choix , Décoration
Cons: Trop de sauce dans la salade cesar

Great food!! - Edit
We had found this in Rome after not finding much vegan food in Venice, and we're over the moon. The lasagna was incredible, and the hummus sandwich was also great. Their selection of juices were different but tasted great.
Read moreWe couldn't finish our mains because we had to leave space for dessert. We got the vegan tiramisu and brownie. They were decent. But the mains are definitely worth going for.

Vegan tiramisu is out of this world 😍 - Edit
I got the truffle spaghetti and tiramisu, and wow! I haven’t had tiramisu since I went vegan, and it was just the best thing I ever had! Even my non vegan mom loved it!
