Menta y limon

I wanted to order the promo but she said no entree. Not sure exactly why not as struggled to communicate in Spanish so I ordered the 3 empandes and lemonade but don't think I was charged correctly in the end.
My husband had risotto and loved it. There was a few gf options, but not many.
The lady was nice but the service was slow due to reheating/cooking the items but we weren't in a rush so it's okay. The food court had tables and benches to sit at.
The stall didn't take card but there was an ATM there.
I only got to try one flavour due to being approached by a homeless?/needy?/begging man whilst sat eating here so we gave him the food. Turns out he wanted us to buy pizza and didn't want the empanades... 🤣
The food came on a wood board with kitchen paper and the oozing cheeze stuck to it so we requested a plate and cutlery which she had no problem giving us.
There was no gf dessert options available.

Loved it!

Pretty nice outlet with affordable food varieties. The guy who work there is super sweet and can speak good English. There is also an old lady who is sweet too but she doesn't speak any english. We ordered a Fungi burger, Coffee and a hot dog. They tasted pretty good.

Pros: Sweet Staff, Affodable Varieties, Cheap

Simple, but good

The place is located inside a market and offers different vegan dishes. I ordered a milanesa, it was a bit different from I expected but the flavour and texture were good

Good for a quick bite

Traditional Argentine foods such as choripan and empanadas, all vegan. Variety of juices and lemonade. Good but not great. Good price!

Great first introduction to Buenos Aires

This seems to be the one place that doesn’t take advantage of inflation. Even better, their food is quite yum. Buenos Aires food is not particularly flavorful (at least for vegans) but I found this place quite satisfying with some of the best vegan empanadas.

Update: I had it for the second time and while prices are still great, a bit less yum than I remember. Mostly it’s covered in vegan cheese which is good but not particularly unique.

Buen puesto vegano en mercado de comidas

Bena opcion para comer vegano en esa zona. Probé 4 gustos de empanadas, el locro y un Frape de chocolate. Todo muy bueno. El lugar para sentarse y el patio de comidas es agradable. Aunque hay otros negocios no veganos no hay otros olores e el lugar es limpio. Agrego fotos de la conida y las listas de menus. Pongo 4 eatrellas porque es muy bueno aunque no es lo mejor que he probado claro. Creo no hay otras opciones veganas en al menos 7 cuadras.

Pros: La comida, El ambiente, La atencion

Cons: Patio de comidas con otros negocios no veganos

Delicious food

I can only speak about the food itself so far because I only had delivery but it was very good. I had the locro (since it was 25 de mayo recently, don't think it's a permanent menu item), some empanadas and the vegetable pizza. The locro was good and nicely seasoned, the empanadas were good as well, the pizza was delicious! Very nice assortment of toppings!
I also liked that they kept the delivery packaging to a minimum and where possible they used paper. Also the carton had a very cute message written on it which just adds some charm.

As famosas empanadas argentinas

As empanadas são deliciosas. A loja fica ao lado do metro Callao, dentro do Mercado San Nicolas. Como abre cedo, é uma excelente opção para quem quer um café da manhã vegano em Buenos Aires.

Pros: Totalmente vegano, Comida saborosa, Bons horários - abre cedo

Shop name says it

Picked the promoted 3 empanadas and lemonade which is a mint & lemon drink whose combination is an awful sour flavor. Expected to be able to pick from their flavors list but wasn't given a choice. The veggie empanadas were too hot and taste was just ok but not convincing. Credit card payment comes with 10% surcharge without telling.

Cayó mucho la calidad respecto al año pasado.

Solía ir seguido ahí y volví luego de un tiempo y me decepcionó la calidad

Pros: Menu 100% vegano

Cons: Cayó mucho la calidad respecto al año pasado, La milanesa napolitana muy finita y poco gustosa, Empanadas poco gustosas

Cute little vegan place

The quality and taste of the food here is amazing. The vegan "locro" is super good and the tacos are really tasty. They have a great variety of vegan meals and really good desserts. We tried the "Yerba Mate cheese cake" and we loved it. The cook/waiter was super friendly and efficient. You can eat at the tables in front of the counter or they can prepare it to go.
It is a small place within the Mercado San Nicolás, a market with lots of options of food (non-vegan) and stores that sell healthy food, veggies and fruit.

Pros: quality of food, good price, great service

Cons: None, None, None
