Cheap lunch

We went here for lunch - set menu for only 20 sols. The owner/server spoke some English and was friendly. The menu included a set drink, salad, a set soup, and a dessert - fruit jelly type dish. We could then choose from a range of mains. I got the noodles - they were very flavourful and felt fresh.

For the price, I feel like we got great value and we were pleasantly surprised to find a vegan option in Puno. A range of traditional Peruvian dishes were available on the list of mains.

Nicht zu empfehlen

Für Touristen nicht zu empfehlen. Wir haben uns verarscht gefühlt da wir viel mehr bezahlen mussten als die Einheimischen. Darauf angesprochen gab es nur Ausreden. Das hat uns sehr geärgert.
Das essen ist ganz oky aber den Ärger nicht wert.

Pros: Rein vegan , Take away möglich, Essen ganz oky

Cons: Anderer Preis als einheimische, Man wird ausgenutzt

Good main dish, didn't enjoy everything else

I couldn't eat half of the soup, it tasted really weird and I don't know what it was. The juice (cebada) was really strange, not tasteful at all. I ordered a chincharron with lomo for the main dish and it was good. The dessert was strange as well.

I say weird and strange because I don't know precisely what was wrong, but it wasn't tasty. The price is ok as well (20 soles for the full menu). Maybe in another day you will have better luck with the dishes? :)

One thing I didn't like is that you can't see what the main dishes are before ordering them, like you would in a buffet.

Pros: Fully vegan

Impressive vegan local food

Loads of options, the owner speaks English and is very nice.
They offer a menu deal for 20 soles which includes:
- Salad buffet
- Refillable drink
- Soup of the day
- 8-10 options for mains (!?)
- Dessert

This is above the price of average govinda meal deal, but the quality and variety is waaay above.

Lots of food, very friendly service

This is the best chain of Loving Hut in Peru (the other is in Lima). The husband and wife owner are proud vegans and very friendly. The servers speak some English, and the set menu for 20 Soles includes unlimited salad, soup, a choice of main dish, dessert, and unlimited drinks. The place was packed with locals at lunchtime!

Good food but unfriendly (guy) staff

The menu including salad, soup, main dish and a small dessert costed 30 soles (around 8€).
Self service for the salad in rally small plates, a small soup and you can choose between 6 main dishes or take a mix of two.

The guy that takes orders told me the mix is not adapted to women stomach as we get full quickly !!!! What does he know about my stomach and hunger !
He should has kept his sexist thoughts for himself !!!😤

As it was the only vegan place open at this time I decided to stay and I took the mix, of course...

There was only one dessert (riz au lait) and self service hot beverage.

You can also take a small ice cream for 4 soles If your stomach is big enough... 🤫
You can choose between 4 flavors and have a mix .

Pros: A lot of vegan options for main dish, Icecream

Cons: Staff full of stereotypes , One dessert, Expensive

Solid vegan place in Puno

Considering Puno has extremely limited vegan options, this is a good one. Some of the staff speak english. We ordered two menus (a menu includes a salad, beverage, soup, main, and a dessert). There were 10 options for the main, we chose Inka special (veg meat, baked carrots, potato, sauce, salad), and bean curry (included half of fried plantain). Both were alright but a little cold. There was a choice of two beverages (herbal tea and passion fruit hot drink) both were very good. We didn't get desert until we specifically asked for it and it wasn't very good (veg gelatine of apple-cinnamon flavour) - they served it to the locals without delay. They only take cash.

TLDR: good vegan food

Pros: tasty vegan food, many options to choose from, english-speaking staff

Cons: food was a bit cold, no credit card (only cash), dessert only served when requested

A busy restaurant/shop/hostal

There is a 4 course menu, with 3 options for the 3rd course. Fresh and healthy food. S/10 for the menu. I also bought a chunk of cake to take-out S/5. Today (23rd Dec) there were choices of Panetone to buy - much-loved by Peruvians at this time of year. The restaurant had a constant flow of people, old and young, locals and tourists. Upstairs there were large posters of famous vegans to motivate if necessary. It is also a hostal.

Confusing

Even though there is a menu posted outside when we went in we were told we only had 3 options. We ordered the first two which we thought were a stir fry with fried soy pieces, and a soup. We were very wrong. We were given 2 soup appetizers, then when those were done we were give a curry type dish and then a plate with the fried soy pieces, a couple cooked potatoes that weren’t washed before cooking, and a couple peppers. I wasn’t sure what to make of it, and the curry dish wasn’t very good.

Pros: Friendly staff, Spoke English , Very inexpensive

Cons: Limited options , Didn’t know what anything was, Wasn’t very good tasting

Sabroso

Es un buen restaurante en la que brinda una buena atención al cliente y si el cliente requiere algo sólo tiene que pedirlo para que se lo traigan, los platillos son muy variados la ensalada es al gusto de cada persona igualmente los refrescos , la leche de soya o leche de almendras o leche de alpiste, tiene un buen precio y las personas que atienden ahí son amigables e incluso el dueño y la dueña tienen carreras muy relacionadas a la salud y son muy buenos consejeros respecto a cómo mejorar la salud y la dieta.

Pros: Tiene muchas opciones de platillos veganos

12 Soles 4-course menu.

All vegan. Can even buy vegan products (cheese, soy-meat,...). Offer 4-course menu plus drink for 12 soles. Many options to alter set menu for additional 1-2 soles (refills, switching desert, eating two mains,...). Definitely enough food to satisfy hunger in the 4-course menu. Traditional Peruvian dishes veganized. Recommend. :)

Pros: All vegan, Satisfying portions. , Options to alter menu.

Brilliant service and filling food for a good price

We visited here for lunch and had two different meals from the set menu. I had the stew with quinoa which was filling, just not as flavoured as I’d normally like. We had soup and salad which was great as an entree and desert was rice pudding. A variety of drinks were included. All of this was 12 soles around £3/£4 per person. A great price for so much food and the service was great. The staff were very friendly.

Pros: Cheap filling food, Great set menu , Friendly and welcoming service

Great food, slow service

The owner of the place is super friendly, service oriented and nice to talk. I ordered the saltado peruano which delicious. However, it talk an HOUR before it arrived. It wasn’t even busy, only two other people there when I ordered my meal. I almost got up and left. Unfortunately this ruined an experience which otherwise could’ve been great.

Pros: Great tasting food, Big menu with lots of interesting choices

Cons: Extremely slow service, Both TV and music on. Very distracting.

Good quality, 100% vegan 🌱

Very popular little diner, that serves 100% veganised versions of Peruvian food. I got the vegan Salchipapas (vegan sausage and chips) and it was a smallish portion, but portions of other dishes looked bigger. Not that I needed more...you help yourself to salad (so I piled my plate high!) and it was well worth paying an extra S/3 for a slice of fresh strawberry cheesecake....so gooooood! Staff were really friendly and spoke English - clearly popular with locals, more locals than tourists was a nice feel! Highly recommend.

Pros: 100% vegan, Huge sweet/cake selection , Friendly helpful staff

Cons: Felt slightly rushed bc it was so busy
