Vegetarian options available - Edit
I arrived 11.45 on a Friday just before they opened and they kindly let me leave my bag while I ran an errand then came back for lunch. They asked me if I wanted the vegetarian, vegan or "normal" menu and cooked meat for everyone else without putting the extractor fan on (had to wait outside it was so overpowering). However, it was the only decent meal I've had in a week. There was a 3 course thing but I wanted the burger. 4USD seems quite expensive when you compare it to most food available at eateries but a Beyond Burger from the supermarket 30 mins walk away is 8.55USD and then you'd have to buy the bread, oil and salad too as well as finding somewhere to cook it. This one was tasty and made from lentils mashed into something (maybe corn or green banana?) so way more natural and local. Bread surrounding it was thankfully sugar free too.
Read morePros: Balanced nutrition, Tasty, Not a massive rip off
Cons: Cooking meat with no extractor fan on

Big portions but I really didn't like one of my dishes - Edit
We ordered the almuerzo. The soup was nice and full of veggies but it lacked a lot of flavour. The main, I really didn't like and I couldnt finish it which was disappointing. It definitely could have just been on that day though!

Good food, low prices - Edit
There is only one menu option, like a daily menu, but it is good and tasty. I had rice, vegan 'meat' with vegetables and a salad and a juice. Just for 5 dollar. The owners are really nice and speak some English. Dont be put off by the looks of the restaurant, it looks simple. I would recommend.

Only one option: menu of the day - Edit
Which was really good, it consisted of a drink (juice, water or tea/ coffee), soup, salad and a main dish for $6.
Read moreAlso the pickles made of agave flowers was delicious.
One star less because I heard the waiter say to other guests there's two options, vegetarian menu of the day or one with chicken.

Ok - Edit
I had the menu del dia which was a soup, side of veg, a noodle dish, and juice. The veg and soup were not flavoursome, but the noodles were great.
Read moreI was charged $5 which seemed steep, but I didn't question it. Previous review here says $3.5 for set lunch.

Vegan and Vegetarian Restaurant - Edit
This family owned restaurant was closest to our hostel (cafe tiana). I had a soy burger and it was really good! They have a menu of the day option but it was pretty late and I was only looking for a snack. Despite the one review saying they serve meat, I can say this is completely incorrect. This restaurant is 100% veggie with vegan options.
Read morePros: Nice family owned restaurant, good burger & cheap
Cons: None!

accidentally vegan - Edit
This place is owned by an indigenous nutritionist, who likes to share his knowledge. They have fix menus. The day I went the menu was accidentally vegan, but I saw on the week plan that they also serve chicken and tuna, which is a pity.
Read moreThe dishes were super delicious (soup, salad, main for 3.50$).
In case the menu is not vegan it can be adapted.
Pros: cheap, knowledgeable owner, delicious
Cons: not even vegetarian
