Nice vegan buffet - Edit
Natural Food Plaza is a big place, with a shop and garden seating. You can order a few menu items (burger, crepes, bandeja paisa) or from the buffet - a salad, choice of two soups, choice of juice, main and small dessert. Good food, fully vegan AND open Sundays!

Excellent food - Edit
Update, March 2016:
There are a lot more tables at this new location only a few blocks north of Parque Sucre. Everything is on the ground level now, but the food is still very good. If you arrive early at lunch time you can see the food for the day on a steam table and the employees serve your food right in front of you. If you arrive late for lunch they will just bring you the food, already plated.
--------------
The food was very good here the day I went. It's not a far walk from the historic center of town, and not far from the other vegetarian-friendly restaurant in town (Rincon Vegetariano). The people that work there are very nice. Warmly recommended.
Pros: Flavor, Price

fantastic vegan feast - Edit
(It is frustrating to submit corrections to Happy Cow and have them ignored. This review includes current and correct information.)
Natural Food Plaza is two businesses in one location: a natural foods store on the street level, offering whole-grain breads, cookies, grains, organic fruits and veggies. Open 7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m., Sunday-Friday.
The restaurant (formerly El Rincon in a different location) is on the second floor. Open for lunch, the main meal of the day, 11:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. Served buffet style; the servers fill your plate. Offers choice of soup, entree, salad, a tiny dessert, and juice/soy milk; COP$7000 (US$4). Outside those hours, between 7:30 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. you can order off the menu. Open Sunday-Friday.
This is possibly the best vegan restaurant I have ever eaten at. The atmosphere is elegant, with while tablecloths and black-suited waiters. The food is of nearly gourmet quality, served in ample portions. Example: whole-wheat crepes served with your choice of 3 exquisite fillings (I tried them all!).
The business is run by a Seventh-Day Adventist community which grows the food organically on their farm. It doesnt get any better than this.
Pros: superb food, reasonable prices, organic
