Ok - Edit
Habe Momos und Pommes bestellt, beides kam aus der Tiefkühltruhe. Dementsprechend nicht so lecker und frisch wie ich es bisher kannte. Aber ok für den Preis. Trinkwasser gibts umsonst zum nachfüllen. Das Essen Meier Tischnachbarn sah sehr gut und frisch aus. Der Laden wirkt zusammengewürfelt und ungemütlich. Das Personal ist freundlich.
Read morePros: 100% vegan, Nettes Personal , Es gibt Trinkwasser umsonst
Cons: Momos und French Fry sind aus der Tiefkühltruhe, Sehr ungemütlich und lieblos eingerichtet

Amazing all vegan restaurant - Edit
This entirely vegan restaurant is our favourite place to eat in Kathmandu. Our favourite dishes include the seitan fried fried rice, the seitan sadeko, the fish sticks, and the mushroom pagoda sticks. It’s great to see a few decent desserts on the menu here too.
Read moreThe staff here are lovely and are clearly passionate about veganism and the food they serve. The prices are also very reasonable. I cannot recommend this place enough.
Pros: Delicious Food, Great Service, All Vegan

Vegan Heart of Kathmandu - Edit
We could not believe our luck, when we discovered that Loving Heart, was a just few minutes’ walk from our hotel.
Read moreDuring our three visits, we ate the following dishes: Seitan chowmein, Seitan sadeko (a vegan take on a Nepalese speciality), Seitan fried rice, fish sticks, tofu sticks and mushroom pakoda (mushrooms in chickpea flour batter).
For us, the Seitan sadeko and fish sticks were a particular favourite, and it was great to have the opportunity to sample some local flavours, safe in the knowledge that everything was 100% vegan. There are so many items on the menu that we have yet to try, including several types of momo, ginger fish gravy and pizza.
Lovely, lovely people too!
Pros: Delicious Nepalese specialities, Excellent value for money, Lovely people

100% Vegan! - Edit
Nice bonus to find a fully vegan place in Kathmandu. We had the seitan noodle dish which was really good and the staff were friendly and helpful. A plus to have fake meats to get that substantial protein hit!

Creamiest and tastiest Vegan ice cream in Kathmandu!!
Read moreWide range of selection - everything from seitan to tofu to vegan ham cheese pizza to vegan gulab jamun (an incredibly hard Indian dessert to veganize), you name it they have it. Must visit for Vegans visiting Nepal! The owners are Vegan and super friendly folks.

Hit & miss - Edit
Ate here twice mostly out of convenience, as it was directly across from our hotel. Awesome to find a fully vegan place in Kathmandu, but food was up and down and took a long time (the pizza was an hour).
Read more- Ham & cheese pizza had a sickly sweet base, way too sugary and weird. Also took forever as mentioned. 3/10
- Khana set was really tasty especially the seitan sadeko part, would have the sadeko again by itself. Favourite dish I tried here. 8/10
- Seitan chow mein a bit dry and the seitan bits were super crispy verging on burnt. Was served with ketchup on the side which was weird. 6/10
- Chilli seitan, delicious! 8/10
- Momos fine, not the best we’ve had 6/10

Pros: Some dishes very nice, Friendly staff, 100% vegan

Cold food - Edit
After waiting for 25 minutes we got a starter. Waiter completely forgot about the drinks we ordered.
Read moreThen after I complained about the long waiting time, we finally got the main course, which was a plater of food. Unfortunately most of it was already cold, dry and not tasty. We decided not to eat the main. We were still charged service.
Pros: None
Cons: Expensive, Cold, Not tasty

Simply delicious - Edit
All sorts of creative vegan dishes, including breakfast and deserts. I never thought I’d find seitan here and it was delightful. Also, the staff were really kind.
Read moreThe only thing is that I specifically asked for non spicy dishes as I’m very sensitive, and it was very spicy, so if you’re also sensitive make sure to let them know.

Great way of exploring traditional Nepalese kitchen while staying vegan on holidays!:)
Read moreThe staff was extremely helpful and very friendly, always made sure we were happy.
The food is really delicious, a great thing to try is the "group package" and the Momo's. With these 2 dishes you will have a bit of everything!
The rooftop is also really nice and peaceful:)
Highly recommend!

A home away from home - Edit
We found this place difficult to spot! But once inside were so well looked after, being ushered to the table under the heater and given glasses of warm water in rainy Kathmandu. Momo soup is gorgeous, and I will be going back for more. The cheesecake is I think constantly changing but nonetheless marvellous. Staff are very sweet. It is inexpensive, but not terribly cheap, you pay for quality and health!

100% vegan and AMAZING food - Edit
We love everything about this place. Realy friendly staff (once you make an effort to connect). Delicious food - particularly the mushroom pokora which is devine! Momos and other dishes are also amazing. A nice mix of mock meats and veg. A lot of local food inspired by the international chain of restaurants called Loving Hut.

Good food, average service - Edit
Good range of Nepalese and Western food. The food is tasty, but takes AGES to prepare. The kitchen is small, but for a place that only seats a few groups at a time service is very slow. We went for breakfast one morning and there were 2 other people- it took 35minutes for my sister to be brought a bowl of cereal with some fruit.
