Not bad, but lots of room for improvement

I was really keen to go here, because it's all vegan and I really wanted to taste those Brazilian delicacies that I usually can't try because they're not vegan. The place itself doesn't look very good, decoration is a bit sad. Service was also not so great, very grumpy staff. The food choice was limited to exactly 1 daily menu, which was in my case the burgers (in which you do have a choice).. I usually go to a restaurant to try food I can't make myself, but in this case I must confirm I make better veggie burgers at home. Does it make that very bad?? No, it was still alright. And the coixinhas made me very happy. The low prices too.

Pros: Cheap, Typical Brazilian snacks made vegan

Cons: Limited food choice, Quality of food could be better, Decoration and vibe rather pathetic

Good hotdog

Las Vegans is in the middle of Lapa, a very touristic place know for its pubs and for being crowded at night. It is a good option if you are there.

Pros: Stay open at after midnight on Saturdays

Cons: Few options

I went here five times when I was in Rio!

This place was really close to the hotel I stayed at during carnival and I absolutely loved them! The food was amazing, the people were really nice, and the store was decorated super cute. It’s nothing fancy but it’s perfect for just chilling and getting good food. Get the black burger and use the option to add another “meat” and throw a bean patty on it. That’s what I did and it was one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. The “little snacks” are also really enjoyable and definitely worth a try if you want to taste a traditional Brazilian food! They have ice cream bars to buy as well so it’s nice if it’s hot out and you just want a quick delicious vegan treat!

Great food and interesting atmosphere

Had a really tasty meal here (sausage and cheesy chips and a lasagna) and some good caipirinhas. Really friendly staff who we're happy to help us in English as best they could. The karaoke was a bit bonkers but also very entertaining! Definitely recommend this place for something a little quirky and fun!

Pros: 100% Vegan, Great food and drinks, Friendly staff and fun entertainment

Cons: The space needs some TLC, The white lighting was a bit harsh

Oasis

Uma rara opção na cidade para veganos que estão com fome tarde da noite. Um bar classico, com karaoke, cerveja e o diferencial de ser vegano.

Pros: Engajado na causa. Cardapio diversificado.

Cons: Nem sempre o padrão se mantém

Vegan Option in Lapa

It's not easy find vegan food in Lapa. This place open at night, you can get some good snacks, and drinks. For big meals unfortunately the quality is not the best option in Rio, but consider there is few places in Rio that serve vegan food during weekends and night time. Try the "coxinha de jaca" delicious 😋

Pros: Open night time.

Cons: Moderate

Unfortunately poor food

I don't like writing negative reviews, but this time I feel I have no other option. I went twice and was really disappointed both times. The first time I had a lasagne, which tasted mostly like mushy overcooked pasta which was drenched in an overdose of bbq sauce. There also was a little stone in it.
The second time I tried the burger. The bread was beyond disgusting, dry and it was really difficult to finish this again mostly bbq sauce themed burger.

I want to support all-vegan places like this one but they have to at least make edible food, and good food if they want to help the cause. This place fails to deliver that, and only gets one star for being the only all vegan place in lapaand one star for friendly staff. Two stars.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Great location, Friendly staff

Cons: Disgusting food

Cosy place with plenty of options

This place is very close to the Lapa aqueducts. The staff are incredibly friendly and nice. There were two menu's: a vegan burger and salad menu and a more traditional menu.

The burger menu had an option for a GF burger bun but they were out of those on the day. There were 6 burger patty options to chose from, vegan sauces and salads.

The normal menu had more traditional options, like vegan coxinhas.

Overall the food was nice and they even have kombucha on tap.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Cons: Limited GF options

the coxinha is good

their social media is nicer than the restaurant itself. i didn't like the food with meat flavoured ingredients such as ham - it's way too salty and artificial. the coxinhas and other pastries are good.

La atención es mediocre, la comida también

Uno de los platos llegó frío, a los diez minutos llegó la bebida, a los veinte el otro plato. La comida no es muy rica.

Pros: Sirven cerveza

Buen servicio. No muy buena relación calidad-precio.

Fue el primer restaurante vegano que conocimos en Río, pero la experiencia fue regular. Los precios son muy elevados teniendo en cuenta la calidad de las comidas que ofrece y la zona en la que se encuentra; y el lugar es muy rústico. Con mi pareja comimos lasaña con carne de soja y tenía mucha masa y muy poco relleno y poca salsa. El sabor era regular. No cuentan con variedad.

Pros: Todo vegano.

Cons: Relación precio-calidad.

Muito ruim / very bad

Pior restaurante vegano que já fomos na vida. A equipe de atendimento extremamente despreparada e a comida de péssima qualidade e cara. O hambúrguer estava despedaçando e os acompanhamentos vieram frios. Quando fomos dizer que a comida estava fria o gerente foi arrogante e disse que assim mesmo que era servido.

The worst restaurant ever. The staff is extremely disorganized and grumpy and the food’s quality was pretty bad and also expensive. The burger was falling apart and the sides were cold. When we went to talk to the manager he was arrogant and said that it how they usually serve the food.

Cons: Expensive , Bad quality

Okay...

Wasn’t our first option but we ended up coming here, the service is so slow and the food is basic for how much you pay. They didn’t have the black bun for my burger. They forgot we ordered fries so when we asked 30 minutes later they had to cook them then. Probably would avoid it.

Comida boa, mas atendimento pode melhorar

Tem ótimas opções, tanto que fui várias vezes ao restaurante (ficava imediatamente ao lado do meu hotel). Apenas teria três ressalvas: 1) o queijo vegano do hamburguer não é muito gostoso; 2) geralmente o atendimento é rápido, mas um dia demoraram mais de 30 minutos para trazer dois hot dogs e uma porção de fritura (o restaurante estava praticamente vazio no momento); 3) o horário de funcionamento informado não é confiável, pois precisava almoçar antes de ir ao aeroporto para retornar de viagem e às 11:20 o restaurante ainda não estava aberto (eu perguntei no dia anterior e me disseram que no sábado o restaurante abria 11h).

Pros: Aberto todos os dias, Boas opções

Cons: Horário de funcionamento informado não é confiáve

The first vegan "dirty foot" I ever saw

Las Vegans is a "pé sujo" (dirty foot), a slang for a very simple, cheap ans bar-like restaurant. It uses to have 4 salads and 8 hot dishes for lunch, execpt in days of few people in the city center. My female friends does not like the womens' restroom. At night weekends, there is karaoke and "grainburguers" for who is going (or coming back) some party in the nearbies.

Pros: Cheap, Opens at weekend nights

Cons: Staffs sometimes takes a long to serve, WCs

Tasty burger and chips!

I last came to Rio in 2013, and when I was here I remember that it was very hard to get a vegan meal that wasn’t super healthy stuff, so it’s really exciting to come back here now and find that there are not only more vegan places to eat, but also more options for more junk foody stuff like hot dogs, burgers, chips and cake. The service was a wee bit slow and the toilets could do with a clean, but the staff were very nice and the food was delicious!

NeeHmm

this place is different from other Vegan restaurants in Rio de Janeiro. The location is a garage in Lapa street level with cars stopping in front of the entry. The staff is easygoing but super disoriented, service is slow and the food quality ok. The music is good.

Pros: Prices , Open till late

Cons: Staff, Service slow , Atmosphere

Let me move into this place :)

Best vegan place for me. The service isn’t the best to be honest but the food is super honest and delicious and the place is super chill. Be it the burgers, the buffet or even the pizza night, as a vegan fan you have to check out this place. Loved it!!!

Pros: Good selection, Good price, Super delicious

Too costly, poor quality

I went couple of times there cause I was staying in lapa and cause they had long opening hours.
First day I took the soy burguer that cost 12 rs, which was a good price for the quality of the burguer.
The second day I went for lunch to try out the menu options, I took the feijoada, cause is one of the typical Brazilian dishes and I was curious. It cost 30rs and the plate was pretty small and just rice beans and a bit farofa, which at most should cost 10rs in my opinion. Also the beans tasted a bit accidic as if they were already expired. And the staff wasn't the best either.
There are better vegan options in Rio, and to eat rice and beans you can go to almost whatever restaurant and it will cost 3 times less.

Pros: Fully vegan

Cons: Careless staff, Poor quality, Expensive
