Try some place else - Edit
My hubby and I went there one evening during our week in Vienna, as it had gotten good reviews on Happycow. The first bad omen of the visit was the gaudy color scheme of the place; imagine the most horrid yellow-neonish green, paired with a washed out brownish orange, mixed in with obscure patterns; that alone can make you loose your apetite! What food is concerned we were most disappointed. I ordered the veg gulash, that came with two scary looking lumps of old bread and something else undefinable. The lumps had awful consistency and no flavour whatsoever, the soy bits in the gulash tasted nothing, and the gulash itself was luke warm only and the only flavour was paprika, and not a nice one.. My hubby had seitan schnitzel, also tasteless, a pluss for the potatoes, that actually tasted of something; potatoes!The only good thing about this meal was the beer. We did not take our chances on desserts here, and also did not want to spend a penny more in this place. Staff seemed unenthusiastic, understandably so. If you want a tasty and lovely veggie meal this is not the place to go, there are much better places close by!

Tasty and filling, great value - Edit
A bit hidden away but a little gem when you find it. I had the seitan schnitzel with parsley potatoes and salad, very tasty and a large portion so make sure you are hungry when you go...
Read moreThey also offer a selection of vegan cakes, I joked with the waitress that I couldn't decide between banana or coconut and she suggested half and half, which worked well. Overall good value for money - main course, salad, cake and soft drink came in at under €20.
Decor is bright and colourful with background music that is cheerful without being overpowering. All in all, a good find and definitely somewhere I'll go again if I have the opportunity.
Pros: Large portions, Cake!, Friendly English-speaking staff

Yummy food, pleasant atmosphere - Edit
This is one of my favourite vegan restaurants in my hometown! :) It is very comfortable and always calm there even if it is close to one of the biggest shopping streets in Vienna! :)
Read moreYou can choose between two small rooms or a table outside :) The portions of the food make you really full :) They have a normal choice of vegan/vegetarian dishes and they are all really well cooked and seasoned in my opinion :) But the cakes, which change oftentimes, are the best there! :)
And the staff is also always very friendly!
Pros: Low/Fair prices for yummy food, Pleasent atmosphere, Friendly staff

Not totally my cup of tea, but still done well - Edit
I first tried to go to Landia a year ago, and after schlepping around Vienna for quite a while trying to find it's slightly obscure location, I arrived only to be told that they were shutting early due to a lack of custom. However, on my next trip to Vienna, I managed to go again after much effort (it really is a bit tough to find), and found it in a much healthier situation.
Read moreThe staff were very friendly, and patient with our poor attempts to pronounce things in German and our need to have certain bits of the menu explained to us. The food itself was...well, I feel that I can't be too harsh on it, as I am coming to the realisation that I'm simply not a big fan of central European cuisine. A lot of the food is vegetarian and vegan equivalents of traditional dishes from this part of the world, like goulash and schnitzel. In that sense, they were perfectly successful, I just find much of the local food a bit bland it seems. To reiterate, the problem is with me, not them, I think Landia did a good job of what it was trying to do.
Excepting my taste issues, the place was very nice, a cosy atmosphere, friendly staff, good beer, and a reasonable price. If you're up for potatoes, breadcrumbs, cheese and 'ham', this seems like a fine choice.

great place for vegans - Edit
We had a celebration there, and the staff was super friendly. They made a vegan menu for us with a choice of cordon bleu or Zwiebelrostbraten (Austrian speciality: pan-fried seitan and onion gravy). The servings were huge, and I don't think I've ever had a better vegan meal at a restaurant. Also: vegan cocktails!
Read morePros: super friendly, great food, vegan cocktails
Cons: a bit hard to find (but we managed)

Good vegan selection of typical Austrian food - Edit
I am not a great fan of veganized meat dishes but wanted to try out this place. I had "Gulasch mit Semmelknödel" (goulash with bread dumplings) which was good but nothing special and a very yummy cake. I also also tried from the cake my friend had which was excellent too. The atmosphere is nice and the waiter was very friendly. Overall Landia left a good impression on me but will not become my favorite.
Read morePros: mostly vegan dishes, friendly staff
Cons: focus on meat substitutes

Awesome cooking! - Edit
Every dish can be made vegan! -> big selection
Read moreVery friendly staff, and instead of just frying some veggies, served with rice, they have dishes that really make me think "Wow, I couldn't have made that myself"!

Typical austrian dishes vegan-style - Edit
The restaurant is located close to the city's main shopping street, i was tired of all the bustle there and so i decided to go for this place.
Read moreIt took me some time to find though, it's not too easy to find if you're not a local.
I like the style of the restaurant, it has lots of small nice tables, some are even outside the restaurant. You choose by menu card where you get offered several typical austrian meals vegan-style. I chose the "rinderrostbraten" with dumplings.
The taste was quite good, but nothing special.
The restaurant itself is mixed vegan-vegetarian.
Pros: close to mariahilferstraße
Cons: difficult to find for non-locals

Favourite in Vienna - Edit
I only found this on my last visit in November 2010. Excellent vegan choice and good quality cooking, sort of gastro pub vibe, ie waiter service but relaxed ambience with a central bar you could also stand at and have a beer. Well worth the slight walk, even in November, and area is safe and pleasant. Looks impossible on Google Maps, but there's a pedestrian passage (past a health shop!) from Neubaugasse onto Ahornergasse. As almost everywhere in Vienna, cuisine is primarily mock-meat orientated.
Read morePros: Food quality, Vegan Choice, Helpful service
Cons: 20 minute walk beyond the Ring

Local Foods Veganized - Edit
Our Viennese friends took us here, so we didn't have to worry about finding it! The people are really friendly and did speak some English, but it's really best to learn some food words anyway as a travelling vegan.
Read moreMy husband got the Cordon Bleu seitan, just one of the best vegan main dishes we've ever had. Amazing. I had a schnitzel thing. Also fantastic. Can't remember the sides, but they were good too. Our friend got the celeriac breaded cutlet, which was incredible. Good beer selection, but only one on tap. Prices are super-reasonable, especially for Vienna. And vegan desserts! The chocolate coconut cake was very good, but not super-rich or gooey.
Pros: FOOD, Prices, Clean & Friendly

Quite sweet - Edit
Tucked away in a side street off one of Viennas less touristy, but equally busy, districts. Very pleasant staff, one of the two spoke very good English. We choose two seitan-filled pittas which were delicious and filling. Extensive range of drinks and all for a reasonable price (cheap for vienna).
Read more+ Vegan cakes!
We wish this place was in London

Very nice place - Edit
It's a really nice place. Not easy to find when it's quite dark though.
Read moreThe food is delicious and not expensive at all.
We had the meal of the day which costed almost 7 euros. It was couscous with a lot of vegetables. We also had a dessert. Chocolate cake (3 euros) and a sort of cookie cake (4euros).
They are really friendly and speak English very well.
The only con was that you can still smoke in there (in a seperate part of the place).
Pros: price, food, service
Cons: smoking area

Delicious and friendly - Edit
There is no English menu here and only one person speaks English. However, you can get "menu" or plate of the day without much German. It's big and delicious, and usually vegan (if you ask, vegan is vegan in German :). They have a delicious hemp beer (Hanfbier), and the desserts are great, especially the blueberry pie with almonds MMMMM (also vegan). The food leans towards Indian, but also has some traditional Austrian things like fried onion. They will make almost anything vegan here. It's also affordable. Plate of the day with a beer and a dessert runs you only 12 euro (pretty cheap in Vienna).
Read morePros: Delicious, Good value
Cons: Smoking allowed on one side, No English menu
