Upscale veggie restaurant

The interior indicated an upscale restaurant and so did the price. We tried the daily menu for HRK 80 per person. The soup was delicious, the main was good, but far from healthy since the portion was huge and certainly not macrobiotic as advertised. It consisted out of way too many ingredients - bulgur, seitan, tofu, grilled vegetable, tempura, cooked vegetable and raw vegetable salad. I felt overwhelmed by the size of the dish. Next time I'd choose something different, the menu was extensive and the chef knows how to cook so it's worth a try.

Pros: Extensive menu, Friendly staff, Nice decor

Cons: Expensive

OK vegan food

In a place like Split, where every single restaurant serves only meat and fish, it's great that places like this exist at all. I just had a snack (salad and a kind of half calzone with tofu), perhaps not mind-blowing but definitely OK. Quite some vegan options to choose from, including cakes. The interior looked a little bit like a canteen but you can also sit outside. It's located just outside the pedestrian zone.

Pros: Croatian food in vegan versions, Outside seating, Not expensive

Cons: Not a very cosy interior

Very tasty

This is a very nice place, not hippy-like, great for vegans and non vegans as well.
The food was very tasty, me and my boyfriend enjoyed it a lot. They offer vegetarian and vegan option.
My boyfriend ordered vegetarian and I ordered vegan. I liked how he got parmensan and I got the alternative-vegan parmensan. The same with mayonaise.

The price was OK, we took the daily menu (soup + main course) and it was around 65kuna and we were full.

Pros: nice looking place, very tasty food, not expensive

nice menu

Very nice daily menu for 70Kn that included a soup as an starter, a side salad and a main dish
You can purchase drinks or desserts as an extra if you like
Hey also have a la carte dinner and lovely rolls full of salads and vegan things
The desserts are lovely!
I definitely recommend this place!
The only down side is the size of the coffees and the matcha latte that were ridiculously small

good food, friendly service, good value for money

After not finding much vegan food elsewhere I went here three times. First I tried the daily menu (soup, salad, tempura veg, steamed veg, seitan and sauce, millet-pudding), which was great. Also sampled the vegan cake (changed slightly from one day to the next), also good, hemp burger (tasty and good value), seitan burrito and pizza slice (pizza was cold but could have asked them to heat it up), all good. Would have liked to come back and try more things!

Pros: many good, labeled vegan options, friendly service, good value sandwiches/burritos/...

Gute Auswahl 😋

Etwas versteckt, aber es lohnt sich. Eine gute Auswahl an vegetarischen und veganen Gerichten, aber auch Sojamilch und sogar vegane Kuchen. Wir hatten den veganen Apfelstrudel und den veganen Schokoladenkuchen. Beides sehr empfehlenswert! Unser Hund durfte auch rein, weil im Innenhof 2 Katzen waren. Tagesmenü mit Suppe und Salat 70 Kuna, also nicht mal 10 €. Hat sehr ansprechend ausgesehen 🙂

Pros: Nähe zum Hafen, günstig und gut

Cons: etwas schwierig zum finden

Good food but don't go at night

Good food and decent prices but we booked a table for 8pm and the service wasn't that great and the food seemed like it was just reheated. I think it would be better for lunch or afternoon tea. Just seemed like we weren't supposed to be there at that time.

Pros: Nearly everything can be veganized, price is fair,

Cons: Average service, lack of personal, not suited for

Tasty burgers and amazing stuff

I was in Makro Vega one week ago and I'm still dreaming about their vegan white coffee!
Burgers were incredible and my friend's matcha was as good as my coffee :) we also had sweet patatoes fries. Crispy and delicious!
Totally recommend it

Pros: Tasty cheap food, great coffee, nice stuff that speaks english

Cons: toilet is a little bit scruffy

Vegeterian doesnt always mean healthy...

I got excited when I saw flyers for this place, so when we received average service on arrival; I got a bit nervous!

Both ordered a beautiful organic green tea to start, then shared a Thai plate and tofu kebab.

The thali plate came with brown rice (you can change from basmati), paneer curry, buttered bread (let them no if you're vegan!), salad with sour cream and deep fried zucchini.

The kebabs are also deep fried, and have two pieces of tofu on each with some brown rice.

A little let down with all the fried food and dairy, and the food was a little bland! It seemed they weren't so interested in the idea of making HEALTHY vegetarian meals, but more in the concept of soothing an emerging market.

Off to find better options for tonight!!

Pros: lots of options , good price

Cons: Dairy in most meals without being noted , A little tasteless, fried foods

great staff but tasteless food

we did not enjoy the food here, since it wasnt very fresh or 'healthy' looking/tasting as we were expecting. the waitresses were super nice and hospitable, but the lack of coziness indoors as well as outdoors made this quite a bleak dining experience.

Pros: affordable, friendly staff

Cons: tasteless food, lack of decoration

So good!

We had dinner at Major Vega this evening, we chose the raw zucchini pasta with cashew sauce, vegan Greek salad and seitan cordon bleu. Wow it was so tasty, I don't understand the reviews that say it was bland as it definitely was not. One of the best vegan meals we have had and we have tried a lot :)

Pros: value for money , tasty fresh cooked food

Cons: it was difficult to find

amazing sandwiches

Had both the seitan and tempeh sandwiches to-go. Even hours later (on the ferry) they were both delicious. Great spot!

Good food

Went here last night and the food was good, but not anything exciting. It's nice since it's rather healthy food and not the standard burger and for the prize the menu is great but the flavors are quite bland.

Pros: nice staff , cheap , somewhat healthy

Cons: bland taste

Must visit for any vegan whilst in Split

Amazing little restaurant with clearly marked vegan options. The food was excellent and exceptional value for money...try the set menu of the day...so much food for just 70 kuna! The staff were also so friendly and helpful, I will definitely be visiting again whilst I am in split

Pros: Great value, great food...even greater strudel
