Yummy Czech dumplings

I had never had Czech dumplings before. I saw the opportunity and took it. The server was very kind and made sure I understood what Czech dumplings were before I ordered, and this was a good thing because I would have wondered if she brought out the wrong order! The dumplings were delicious and I'm considering going back to try another dish before I leave Prague. Wish I took a picture, but I was too hungry!

delicious vegan food in a lovely atmosphere

Maitrea offers a clearly marked vegan selection, which makes ordering very easy. The udon noodles and Asian wok were delicious and very good value for money in terms of both portion size and price. The restaurant's interior is also very attractive and creates a pleasant atmosphere. An all-round recommendable place for vegan food.

Can this be made vegan? On their website it is marked as non-vegan (allergens 3 & 7)

A sensual treat

This beautiful vegetarian restaurant is a Asian/Czech fusion with a handful of vegan options that are done with true care and attention for every detail. From the beautiful bohemian corner-less deco with pleated silk lampshades to being seated with staff in areas with multiple language skills and that's before you get to the food! The menu changes weekly to stay in its seasonalitly mission.

I highly recommend the no duck cabbage potato pancakes with vegetables dipping broth... every aspect cooked to perfection and one of the items on the menu on the bigger size for a big main.

Dubai kadayif cake- the first time im trying this since it was invented last year and delicious. The Fried kadayif noodles balanced the layered textures out with chocolate and fine pistachio and fresh berries to top 😋

Pros: Kind staff who recommended other eateries

Cons: Book early to avoid disappointment, Wish entire menu was vegan!

Solid choice, but nothing spectacular

This was a good but not great restaurants. That said, Prague isn’t known for good food or being vegan friendly so it’s definitely one of the better options out there. I had the tofu gras (very good) and the curry (a little bland but ok - what you expect from curries in non-thai restaurants).

Wonderful and Surprisingly Light

The food was excellent, the staff lovely and the space really fun. And, despite what you would think reading the menu, the food was quite light; We had the Tofuie Gras, "Duck" Pancakes and Udon Noodles, and we walked out feeling fine.

Pros: Delicious food, Nice space, Reasonable price

Absolutely amazing

The food was heavenly. The tofoie grass was amazing. Good sized portions! We had the Dubai tart for dessert and as you can see we forgot to take the picture before digging in. The staff were quick and very nice. They even went so far as to recommend us another restaurant!

Delicious flavours in Prague Old Town

Although I visited during the chef’s break time, there were plenty of vegan options clearly labelled (as vegan and as available during downtime).
I had hummus/guac/troiegras (tofu foie gras) starter and the goulash with dumplings for main, finished with Dubai chocolate tart. All amazing, particularly the troiegras and the texture of the “meat” in the goulash. Staff friendly and efficient, premises modern, cosy, clean and nicely decorated.
Highly recommend.

Pros: Plenty of vegan options, Lovely premises, Great staff

Cons: Kitchen semi-closed 16-17:30, but all explained

Lovely atmosphere, delicious food

The food felt fancier than the price tag! It was all presented really well and tasted great! I had the poke bowl which i finished despite being too full! The apricot lemonade was also amazing. It seemed busy on a Sunday evening so booking is a good idea

Worthwhile

Place is busy so that’s always good sign.
Sister of the Lheka Hlava restaurant and maybe a slight notch below. If one gets a 94 the other gets a 92.
So we did both and truly enjoyed both experiences.
Food was tasty and nice variety.
Not sure I’m a big fan of veg goulash but nice to have the option of trying the local fare.
We even went back again since my wife craved her soup.

Pros: Ambience and crowd , Variety and taste

Amazing goulash

The goulash was really tasty and could be made vegan. The staff was also very nice and quick. We had the two vegan desserts as well and the chocolate pistachio cake was to die for. Loved this place!

Pros: Nice staff, Good food, Good vibes

No decepciona!

Mi hermana se pidió unos noodles que estaban para chuparse los dedos, y yo un goulash (tienen la opción de hacerlo vegano) que me gustó mucho.

I ordered the Thai curry dish which was smaller than expected but very good. For dessert I ordered the tapioca which was good.

Great vegetarian food!

Such a delight to find an all vegetarian place with clearly marked Vegan, GF options. Tried the soy goulash and while I was nervous about how it looked, it was super tasty. The thai red curry was great as well. Friendly staff.

Good

The food was good, I think everyone would find something for themselves. They have a lot of vegan options including desserts.
I took there my non-vegan family and we got four dishes and two desserts (vegan and vegetarian). When it came to ordering the drinks, I asked the server about vegan wine, she went to ask about it and later said they only have one vegan wine, which is red and you have to order the whole bottle. I think this is a little unfortunate for a vegetarian restaurant..also if your wine isn’t vegan, is it vegetarian..?
We reserved a table for four, the place we got wasn’t ideal (just next to the serving window with a bell..but that’s okay. Those were the only downsides, otherwise we had a good experience.

Pros: Staff, Lot of vegan options

Cons: No vegan wine by glass , Pricy

Nice atmosphere

Seems small when you first walk in but there is also a large downstairs area, beautifully decorated in a kind of Buddhist temple style. We booked but you could probably also walk in. Lots of servers who were friendly and could speak English. Decent vegan offerings, I got the potato pancake with “no duck” which was nice. My husband got the avocado salad - slightly misleading menu because it has “rice” as an element but when the salad came with no rice the server explained it is a rice-based dressing.

Pros: Lots of seating, Big menu

Cons: Double check menu when ordering
