Govinda Take Away
Small veggie food shop. Indian style vegetarian cooking with a western touch. No special menu for vegans but regularly has vegan items on the menu. Peaceful ambiance. Local Denmark debit card ok. Open Mon-Fri 4:00pm-9:00pm.

you want to eat here - Edit
Great food! Always more than half vegan menu. Menu is totally vegetarian otherwise. Menu is small but changes daily with everything being homemade. Get some mango pickle on the side! Reasonable prices and portions.
Pros: great food, homemade, good prices
Cons: limited hours, no service, cash or Danish card only

small aware of vegan - Edit
There is a small option between 2 curries and a rice. One curry is not vegan. The owner was kind and friendly. The dhall did not taste Indian in my opinion. The food was ok.
Pros: Vegan option
Cons: Bland food, Serves secretions

delicious - Edit
super neat little gem just outside the city center. located on a big street, with a lot of traffic, and very litytle sitting space, but this is mostlt for take away anyway.
they don't have much to choose from as there is one veggie/vegan meal of the day, and that's it, but nevertheless it is really great food, and worth coming back for and see whats next! surprise surprise !
got super swesome papadoms there once, order so many exstras.. mmmh !
Pros: a new dish everyday, tastes like a good home cooked meal
Cons: little seating place, but its also take away

Easy come - Easy go - Edit
A really good place to just pop in, choose your dish, sit down, relax, enjoy and then leave with a healthy light but still filling feeling.
There was good vegan options when we where there and the food was tasty india inspired.
Not a big menu to choose from and not all vegan.
Simple & good - Namaste my friends!
Pros: good value, friendly staff, quite place

Great for takeaway or a quick sit-down meal. - Edit
Owner was very knowledgeable about which of the day's dishes were vegan (also listed on the restaurant's website). The largest meal option - large helpings of two dishes, rice, and a container of soup - was more than enough for one with leftovers, and was less than 100 DKK. The day's dishes were Indian, and the food was really tasty and filling. Note that restaurant does not accept credit cards, only local Denmark debit cards and cash.

Govinda - needs improvement - Edit
You can get your food to take with you, or eat it at one of thew few tables. I was super hungry, and had to stay and eat it, but felt sort of uneasy.
Only one of the, very bland, stews were vegan, and the black bean soup was just NOT good. I was also charged for the big portion, even though I only ordered and was given the small plate. I wanted to like it, but nothing for me was right, nor the food, the price, the location or the vibe.
Cons: Not all vegan

Indian take-away - Edit
This restaurant offers only a few dishes of already prepared Indian foods, so you can just come by, make your order and you get your food right away. The daily menu is shown on their homepage. Every day there seems to be at least one vegan dish. Their foods are typically spicy Indian dishes, very good and tasty. The pricing is very reasonable.
Pros: Good Indian food, Inexpensive
Cons: Not fully vegan

Healthy food for low costs - Edit
I come here, now and then!
Even though flavour sometimes could be more indian authentical in my book. I'd say nowhere else will you get as good a meal, as cheap!
Nice people! Good atmosphere!

Delicious food! - Edit
I love the food at this place! It tastes great! As the name says it's really just for take away and even though they have option to eat there it's not a very nice atmosphere to stay and eat. But during summer it's great to buy take away and bring it to a park and eat.
Pros: Delicious food, Nice staff

Delicious but not without remorse - Edit
My wife and I went there once, had a great vegetarian dinner (two curries with rice, a soup with bread, poppadum, one juice for 160 DKK ~ 22 EUR) but were disappointed about the single-use plastic crockery and cutlery used even for guests dining in. There is a daily menu consisting of two vegetable curries, one preparation of rice, one soup and one starter, and the webpage lists the daily options for the whole week, as well as the prices for the different combinations. There are also juices, lassis, tea and sweets. Staff was helpful and multi-lingual. The place has limited seating -- a couple of tables and a few bar-style seats facing the window.
Pros: delicious food, helpful staff, good value
Cons: throw-away crockery and cutlery, limited seating space
