Vegan food, but not very good - Edit
It's great to have a vegan restaurant at a central location, I'd love to love it, but the food is not very good.

Surprise Treat! - Edit
This canteen-style restaurant has a very clean, bright informal seating area, with tables outside too. There's plenty of choice on the menu but we opted for the Tibetan curry and a beet detox juice.
Read moreYou order at the counter and the food is assembled from the serving area while you wait. It was quick, easy, tasted great and very reasonably priced.
Pros: Fast service, All vegan, Tasty

Plant based food with style and character - Edit
During a weekend stay in Brussels, the restaurant came to my attention through the app Happy Cow. The ambience is very nice, it looks like a herbal pharmacy in the old days, and white and green are the predominant colours here, with lots of plants, vegetables and floral patterns, so delicate! The staff were very friendly and attentive.
Read moreWe opted for "full therapy" (consisting of starter, main course and dessert). Especially the starter (mezze) is a real eye-catcher and tastes excellent. In general, we liked the fresh food very much. It was a more than positive experience. Keep up the good work "Botaniste"!
Pros: stylish ambience, good and healthy food, friendly staff

Plutôt déçue - Edit
Plutôt déçues de nos deux plats, c'était bon et pleins de légumes, mais manquait de saveurs et surtout il n'y avait pratiquement aucun substitut de viande pour amener les protéines aux plats...

Very good concept in the European district - Edit
Very happy to see a vegan place located in this business area of Brussels. The menu offers many vegan bowls. May be very busy in peak hours.

Gesund aber nicht lecker - Edit
Der Preis ist angemessen. Leider hat das Essen wirklich nicht geschmeckt. Auch der Brownie war mehr ein trockener Schokokuchen mit Soße als gut.. nettes Personal

Beautiful & tasty - Edit
Living particularly close to this restaurant I’ve had their entire menu and I can say that my personal favourites are their spring rolls and their chocolate cookie. I also love that its 99% organic, their napkins and trays are recycled and the interior is very beautiful. I just find it a pity, for regulars, that their menu is rather small.
Read morePros: You are served very fast., All the food is yummy and vegan., It’s 99% organic.
Cons: Not too many options to choose from., It is somewhat expensive.

SIMPLY WONDERFUL - Edit
Everything is fresh, 99% organic and very healthy. We got the sushi, miso soup and a plate with mushrooms and potatoes. To drink, the house white wine and a lemonade. As dessert, cookies with pecan and choc chips - the BEST one in my whole life, also ordered an extra one to take away, so smoothy! What a spectacular experience! The atmosphere is stunning, it looks like a vintage herbal pharmacy, and white and green are the predominant colours here, with a lot of plants, vegetables and flowers pattern, so delicate! The staff was very friendly. Even the toilette was beautiful and smelled so good.

Un vrai bonheur, pour les intolérants au lactose, au gluten, ... - Edit
Un chouette petit endroit qui porte bien son nom. Cela ressemble à une petite pharmacie dont le seul objectif est le plaisir de vos papilles et de votre microbiote. On a déjà essayé 50% de la carte, et franchement quand tu sais que tout est vegan tu n’en reviens pas des saveurs. C’est joli à voir dans ton bol, c’est goûteux à déguster, c’est zen au niveau des prix. Bref, moi qui suit un régime drastique, et n’est pas habitué au veganisme, j’ai trouvé un endroit de rêve et “cerise sur le gâteau” le personnel est souriant et super sympa.
Read morePros: Eau plate et gazeuse à volonté , Que du vegan goûteux , Personnel sympa
Cons: Aucun

“Healthy good quality vegan food and super friendly” - Edit
Finally a vegan place with actually cooked vegetables dishes! Very good quality food and super friendly. We decided to visit it because we thought it was a vegan restaurant i.e. not a buffet or "bowl" make yourself concept. In Brussels there no vegan restaurant open in the evening (no fast food) so we were a bit disappointed but it balanced it out with the tastiness of the food.
Read morePros: cooked veggies, healthy vegan food, service

Some good, some meh food, but all vegan in Brussels! - Edit
I went for dinner with family, 4 of them, all older omnivore but open-minded folks. We share almost all the dishes we got, so I tried a lot of food.
Read more- Mezze to share: awesome spreads, meh maki rolls.
- Chili sin carne: not convinced, but they liked it.
- Mafiosi pasta: they liked it, I found the pastas overcooked.
- Avocado salad: boring, to be honest. Not bad, but definitely not a salad you'll look forward to eat again.
- Cookies (peanut butter, chocolate, choco chips & peacans): great!
- Omega 3 brownie: meh, not really worth it.
- Volcanic Apple: one of them liked it, but he also likes German sweets... I don't :p
- Banana cake: terrific!
- Pear & Choco chips cake: average.
Staff was very nice, and the place is conveniently located. I'll be going again with friends.
Pros: Lots of options, Nice staff, Nice location
Cons: Some food is blend

Fresh, flavourful vegan food - Edit
I travel to Brussels frequently for work and often arrive late in the evening. I now deliberately stay in a hotel next to this place so I can enjoy a good vegan evening meal. Great variety of dishes, with plenty of fresh vegetables. Cookies are also very nice.

Fast and healthy - Edit
The place is pretty crowded during the lunch time, but you get the food fast. I had a salad bowl, it was tasty and big. I was hoping it to have some tofu, nuts etc. Now it was a bit too light for me. The other person on the table had pasta which was good, but nothing special. The place is really focused on the healthy side, and the price is a bit high. Specially as it does not include bread etc. Nevertheless it is one of the only vegetarian places around the European quarters and it serves its purpose as a fast lunch place well.
Read morePros: healthy food, friendly staff, tasty
Cons: a bit expensive, lack of protein

Disappointing - Edit
Went with partner, we had a lunch menu, which includes dish, entrée and drink, for 15€. The food was not worth the price, despite the posh look.
Read moreThe entrées we had were sushi and a spring roll. The sushi was bland and the spring roll was undercooked and also bland. To make things worse, both were served with mustard on top. Yes. Mustard. On sushi and spring rolls.
The dishes were more acceptable. We had jack potatoes with mushroom gravy, which was acid and not nice at all, and "spicy" chilli, which didn't have any hotness to it and was just a mix of undercooked beans with a spice mix that didn't taste like mexican food at all and wasn't very nice. To be clear, I'm used to being served "white people chilli" in vegan restaurants, but this was just bad.
The prices are within the Brussels average (i.e. expensive) but, in my opinion, far beyond what the quality of the food deserves. Won't be coming back.
