Wow Burger, OK Pizza - Edit
The burger was incredible. They have several different patty options, it comes with lightly fried potatoes, a couple sauces and toppings. At 72 pesos, it's an amazing value, even compared to other veggie places in the area.
On a separate visit, I thought the pizza was just ok - crust/sauce were just kinda bland.
Casual, friendly service, spoke English and have a menu in English.

Awesome! - Edit
Although located away from the central strip, this restaurant was located near our hostel and a very awesome grocery store. The atmosphere is very chill and the decor is modern and welcoming. A lovely breeze flows through the restaurant and with all of the plants along the restaurant edge it doesn't even feel like your in the city.
I had thebeet burger and at M$74 it's a steal of a deal. The burger itself was delicious an it came with a hot mustard sauce I couldn't get enough of. The bun was perfectly toasted and tasted like heaven. Highly recommended.

The latte tastes horrible - Edit
The food is healthy. But the latte coffee tastes horrible. I had to go Starbucks and get a soya latte there to forget the horrible taste.
Pros: Healthy food.
Cons: The latte tastes horrible.

ClorofilaDeli 27 Jan 2017 - I think you don't deserve a response but i will do it to clarify other viewers about what are you talking. It's could be two causes: First, we do fresh milks at the restaurant. Because we don't have industrialized boxed milks with a lots of bad ingredients and preservatives like your beloved expensive cafeteria, the living enzyme's in the milk (our milks are no pasteurized) sometimes they go acidic quickly and we didn't noticed when we prepared your latte. The second reason that could happened is that the barman could overheated the milk and burned it. It's really easy to get boiled the milk and that changues the flavor of the lattes. Of course every latte have to be perfect for each costumer and we try to make so. But when something is bad, you could say something and we would make a new one or something to compensate you. What is really sad is your endorsement to a place that first is not Vegan, doesn't pay fair to coffee producers and use industrialized milks like your beloved soy that believe me is transgenic and produced on places that where in the past habitat's for our beloved animals with a lots of cancergenic round-up. And also is a place that doesn't use biodegradable recipients to go like we use at the restaurant. Anyway, your opinion doesn't reflect all the effort we do to have a place that grows their own organic food, buys from local people and pays good wages to the employees. And tell me, it's really a personal offense we make giving you a bad latte? The attention where bad? Do we make you feel unpleased in some way? I think you should reconsider your values you get really affected because a bad latte!

Fruity delicious juices and good food - Edit
Like the atmosphere even though it's on the 30 with Constituyentes, meaning it's too noisy outside. Juices are delicious and good was good too.

More healthy than yummy - Edit
We had the seaweed ceviche and the beet and quinoa burger. They definitely felt healthy but tasted a little bland. Likewise with the juices. Staff is super friendly.

Cons: Bit bland

ClorofilaDeli 27 Jan 2017 - Well maybe the Chef wasn't in his that moment and perhaps something went wrong. We have lots of comments on TripAdvisor saying that we have the best Hamburgers ever. And healthy! Yes! Of course. We love to served healthy food because is food is about nutrition and restauration. We have our own greenhouse and produce organic ingredients. The recipies are intended to be delicious and nutritious. Maybe if you visit us again you may get a surprise. Thank you for your opinion. We will try to improve as always. Vegan salutes!

fresh - Edit
I liked the place, which has natural ventilation and is well located. The service is fast and the menu is good. They have all healthy vegan food so don't expect anything fried or like that, it is more like all well balanced. Try the tapas

Wow - Edit
I am in love with this place, particularly since they set up the larger restaurant and removed all their animal products going from Vegetarian to 100% Vegan. Meals are delicious and everything is very special and good quality. Not the typical copied meal you eat in every vegan restaurant nor full of fake meats. Pure vegetables delicacies in plenty of different dishes you may have never tried. Several sandwiches and burgers, even with the option to have portobellos replacing the bread. Special pizzas with the base made of grains and seeds. The salads that go as sidedish are not the typical boring lettuce but quality ingredients with sprouts, creamy garlic dressing,... Drinks are small but very good, with almond and coconut milk being freshly prepared on site. The only downside of this restaurant are the opening times, closing at 6pm it does not give the option for a dinner, not even an early one. Currently my favourite place to eat out, however working in the city I only really have the option to visit on my day off as for any other day it simply closes too early.
Pros: 100% Vegan, Delicious, Innovative
Cons: closes early 6pm, a bit slow

Great option away from the tourists - Edit
We love this place. Creative vegan food, inventive drinks, and great service. Everything from pea hummus to raw pastas to sandwiches to salads, pizzas desserts and more! If you are looking for something beyond basic hummus and pita, this is your place!
Pros: all vegan!, basic dishes and creative ones too, atmosphere is awesome.
Cons: smallish portions, longer wait times
