perfect evening in udine - Edit
dining at la libellula made our last evening in udine extra special. the service was superb and more than forthcoming. the food was also extremely amazing, classic italian dishes with a vegan twist without relying on too many meat substitute products. vegans and meat eaters alike will leave satisfied after dinner here. thank you, we really loved it!

Friendly people, good food, reasonably priced - Edit
I was in town for a quick business trip and ate most of my meals here. Fernando was an excellent host and the food was great. I especially recommend the pesto made with pistacchios, mint and lime.

Vegano Fantastic! - Edit
(Italian below)
Read moreThis restaurant and its host Fernando are fantastic! They really know how to use their creativity to turn colourful vegetables, substantial (whole) grains, and a melange of nuts, herbs and spices into some flavourful and interesting dishes! Honestly the creativity is fantastic, and its about time to see it! This is not a shy vegan restaurant hiding with the overly salted and processed foods like seitan, tofu ect, so check it out. Definitely the best, if not only, vegan restaurant in Udine, but i hope many more will follow from Fernando! Or at least he opens another 20😁. You can tell a lot of time has been spent conjuring up the dishes, while keeping the beauty of the italian cuisine; intelligently combining a small amount of natural flavours. An example... I had the lasagna with raddichio, a sour tasting vegetable, which was very nicely combined with some sweet roasted cherry tomatoes, hearty potatoes and joined with a beautiful bechamel, all roasted together in the oven of course with an interesting layering of sicilian bread. And last thing, all very healthy. Grazie fernando, all I would say is more cherry tomatoes, i loved them!
(Versione italiana)
Veramente fantastico! Creano dei sapore buonissimi al stile italiano. Finalmente un ristorante che usa i veri sapore della cucina italiana, per creare un pasto saporito e sano! Ho assaggiato dei pasti veramente creative, e' dei pesti molto saporiti. In più, l'oste, Fernando, e simpaticissimo. Venite qua se volete assaggiare qualcosa di diverso ma familiare. Veramente un ristorante vegano fatto bene. Alla prossima volta!
Pros: Creative, healthy, tasty food, friendly staff, nice open windows

Absolutely 100% vegan !! - Edit
Many places tell you that they prepare vegetarian or vegan and then don’t do it - this place lives vegan and is 100% dedicated and determined vegan! Creative dishes and tastes - we loved it! The owners are so much fun and very open to communicate - also in excellent English! Also vegan drinks and specialty beers available! If in doubt, start here! Owner traveled a lot in and around Asia and creates amazing dishes from what he has learned!
Read morePros: Amazing creative dishes - pick any, Fun and friendly owners, Great location and modern and clean place

AMAZING - Edit
This is the little tucked away magic in Udine. With the friendliest staff, most delicious vegan food, and adorable atmosphere you are absolutely missing out if you don't visit during your time in Udine. We were able to get a table during lunch time immediately and were greeted by the owner as we sat down, who didn't hesitate to share a few stories of his time in the states and walk us through the menu. Then, with each course we were even more amazed at all of the perfect presentation and flavor combinations that each dish had. 10/10 will definitely be back.

very good food and nice atmosphere - Edit
I've been in this restaurant many times and I was always pleased not only with the food but with the very nice and talkative (but not invasive) owner.
Read moreThe menu is usually not very various: you have to choose between some pasta/rice, some seitan/tofu and vegetables, or booth of them. I always tried them both and I really liked the quality and the taste!
