Divine restaurant - Edit
This is one of my favourite restaurants in the world. It’s beautiful inside and there’s always a great atmosphere. Being able to choose from a full vegan Italian menu is a dream for me and the food is exceptional.

Best vegan pizza I've had - Edit
The pizza was fantastic. I especially loved the cashew mozzarella, which they didn't try to make stringy by adding way too much starch. What a win! I had the tartufo pizza, and it was top notch.
Read moreThe restaurant had a great ambience, as well, and has a great location. Not to mention, the excellent lunch deal (see image below) from 12 to 3 pm on weekdays.

Good but half the menu was unavailable - Edit
Unfortunately there was no pizza dough available when we came here, so we were only able to choose from pasta and burgers - which were good! Similar story with desserts as the only thing available was ice cream. The food was very good but it was disappointing not to be able to have pizza as Nolita is known for great vegan pizza!

Good - Edit
Pretty good! I’d order again if I was craving pizza. Not the best vegan pizza I’ve had but it tasted good and was a good price.

Good vegan pizza and nice ambience - Edit
We ordered two pizza and both of them tasted very good. The dough was amazing and the vegan mozzarella was tasty as well. Would fully recommend going there and to be sure to get a table you may better make a reservation as it was quite crowded.

Tasty but small - Edit
We had the carbonara (lunch size) and Caesar salad. Super tasty, but sizes were too small. I understand the lunch version is usually much smaller but for the price I still expected a little bit more. My partners salad was normal price but still small/ unfilling. Taste was great, but we did not find the meal size worth the cost, especially in comparison to other places we have eaten.

Bucket-list worthy - Edit
Yeah these guys go well 🇮🇹.
Read moreMy new favourite restaurant on Cuba street is simple but so good with a large variety of sharing plates, pizzas, pastas and salads to choose from. All the food here is fantastic, there isn’t a bad menu option and the price is okay for Wellington. (Although they do have different deals for days of the week)
It can be very busy so booking in advance is essential for those Friday and Saturday nights.
When there’s w lunch special on, I could come here every day.
Pros: Entirely vegan, Great atmosphere , Fast service
Cons: Limited beer and wine range , Bookings essential for bush days

Amazing brunch, great pizza - Edit
We came here three times while in Wellington: twice for dinner and once for brunch on Saturday. Definitely worth it, ESPECIALLY for brunch: perfect Bolognese toastie and the stacked hash browns looked so tasty that a passerby mouthed "ooh, that looks good!" to her son as they were walking by. I believe the tutto carne pizza tastes better than the tartuffo, but both taste great. The carbonara didn't amaze me as much as the brunch options, but still pretty good as well.
Read morePros: Great taste, Lots of options, outside seating, Some healthy options too
Cons: Expensive side dishes, but generous servings
Tiggy
Glad you had a better experience here than I did. I’ll be back again for another try though.

I'd recommend not going for the carbonara, not really worth it. But I loved the rest, ESPECIALLY brunch!

Good energy, decent pizza - Edit
Really vibrant energy and good service, even on a Monday night. Tried two pizzas: Verde which was very good and Pollo which was OK but a bit overwhelmed with BBQ sauce. Good value though and they do carafes of wine, which are always a good choice for two to share.
Read morePros: Good value, Wine available in a 500ml carafe, Good energy

Really nice place - Edit
It's nice to have a fully vegan Italian place in town. All the food was good, the staff were really friendly, and the price was right. It's not quite five stars as the food seemed to be missing a little something, but it's close

Incredible vegan Italian - Edit
Hands down - despite being from Europe we‘ve never had such a great vegan Italian dinner. In Europe they struggle to serve some vegan cheese on pizza being way too proud to change and here they serve homemade mozzarella fried in crispy balls, different plant based meets on pizza or topping a salad and also a good selection of vegan vines. We also had a very good carbonara pasta. Go there - it’s gorgeous!

Tasty pizza, meh tiramisu - Edit
I had the Tutto carne and it was really good. However, the tiramisu was a bit of a disappointment – the texture, layers and taste were not that similar to the original. That said, I still liked the taste.

Not bad but not brilliant - Edit
Food was ok, both the spaghetti and the pizza were a little on the oily side. My puttanesca was advertised to have aubergine 'anchovies' but they weren't there, plus the two tapas dishes I ordered tasted very similar to one another. The wait staff were really lovely thought and were able to find us a table on a busy Saturday night, which we really appreciated. There's a lot of choice, so I'd probably go back and try some different dishes next time.

Decent but not amazing - Edit
Had the Xmas pizza, mozzarella balls and smashed potatoes. Food was OK but wasn't overwhelming so based on the amazing reviews I left feeling a bit disappointed. Really good friendly service though.

Best in Wellington - Edit
Nolita is the best vegan restaurant in Wellington! And probably the best pizza too.
Read moreTo be fair, there are not many other vegan restaurants in Wellington, but Nolita is by far the best. The pizza is high quality and delicious; it tastes expensive. All the pizzas are cheesy with delicious gooey vegan cheese.
Nolita also has a nice interior, and is good for date night or for big groups. It’s a good place to go with a group that includes non-vegans because the food is so good that even the non-vegans of the complaining variety enjoy their meals and have a good time.
Sometimes when it is really busy it can take over an hour to get your pizza after ordering though, so watch out for that!
Pros: Delicious , High quality , Great atmosphere
Cons: Sometimes there is a very long wait for food
