Excelente

A mi gusto el MEJOR lugar para comer vegano, los cocineros tenían en claro que era la comida vegana y adaptaban todos los platos, los precios muy baratos. // The best place to eat vegan, cheap, delicious and good service.

Pros: spaghetti, veggie pizza, tostones, moussaka, efigi

Nice food and lovely staff

El Shamuskia'o was one of the best restaurants I visited while in Cuba. The waitress and chef were incredibly friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious! Not a huge variety of vegan/vegetarian options on the menu, but pretty easy to adapt if you ask. Not pricey, with only a few tables I would definitely eat here again!

Pros: Good food, Not too expensive , Lovely staff

Cons: Not a lot of vegan options , Very small

At last proper Vegan food

Any dish can be made vegan here at this small family restaurant. Food is fresh and carefully prepared. The moussaka was a real delight. They have happy hour 6-8pm also. Helpful and friendly service. Highly recommended.

Pros: excellent food

Inedible

Finding veg/vegan food in Havana is hard, so we were very hopeful to try this place out. I wish I could say the food was okay, but it was just bad, really bad. Everything tasted the same, no matter the dish, and the weird flavouring made it inedible. I don't like to criticise a small business, but my veggie family out there needs to know this is not the place to find good food.

Pros: Cheap, Accommodating to dietary requirements

Cons: Bad food, bad recipes, bad ingredients

Best meal I had in Havana

I was only in town for 4 days and struggled to find places that could accommodate. This place made me a meal from scratch and fully understood my request for no animal products. The food was fresh and tasty. It is a very small place, but clean and comfortable.
