What a scam ! So overpriced for the bad quality ! - Edit
Unpleasant and cold staff. I asked to book a table for 2 : « we don’t take reservations for 2 ». I asked for their wifi to warn my friend : « we don’t give wifi, only for the system ». I had the vegetarian pizza without cheese, I asked if it was possible to get something else in exchange like mushrooms : « we don’t substitute ». Then when they brought the pizza I laughed so hard, just look at my picture, there are like 50 grams of vegetables on it (I asked without onion), this is over 17US$. Then I tried it and it was so spicy, my friend also tried it and found it very spicy. I had to wait for more than 10 minutes for a manager to come see me, after 2 waitresses who told me : « that’s all the vegetables you get it’s expensive here » and « you should have said not spicy » (it’s not written on the menu) and also « we don’t put spicy on our pizza » !!! They said they could make another dish but my friend was already done with her 20US$ small pesto pasta, which were not great, so we just left. I didn’t even get a sorry from them, they have no idea what customer service means.

No longer has Penne Vegana on the menu - Edit
Saddened when we waited for a long time for a table and then they said they no longer have the Penne Vegana. We ordered the homemade hummus with veggie sticks. They call it chickpea purée instead of hummus. It was not good, it was served hot, which was weird, and it had no seasoning or flavor at all. Simply pureed chickpeas, quite bland. Then we got the vegetarian pizza with no cheese, and that was actually quite good, the sauce and veggies were nicely seasoned and flavorful.

Very cute place - Edit
I did not especially enjoy this restaurant.
Read moreThey have a lot of vegan options which is really nice.
They did not have the dish I wanted but that is ok of course, happens sometimes.
They would not give me the wifi password because “they do not give it out” and they do not allow outside drinks so I was not able to drink from my water bottle.
The dish I had was a starter dish- chickpea purée, it was only ok for me.
It is a pricy restaurant.
The waitress was nice and there was a guy playing music with a really nice vibe and not too loud.
I would go if you are craving one of their dishes since they do have quite a few options and it is nice😄
Pros: A lot of vegan options, A clear understanding of what vegan is, Nice live music
Cons: Pricy

Simple but tasty - Edit
Most of the places in Caye Caulker are very laid back, so this is a nice treat if you want something a bit more fancy. When I went with my friend there was a guy singing and playing the guitar in the pretty garden - it was beautiful!
Read moreThe vegan menu is simple, but give you confidence. I had the 'chickpea puree' (hummus?!) with cucumber and carrot for starter (it also came with bread). It was actually really delicious! I then had the Penne Vegana which was a bit salty but otherwise tasty.
