Tasty and interesting food - Edit
I visited it with my omni mum and we both liked the food and the different tastes. It's a bit on the expensive side, so we didn't fill our plates too much and in the end stayed a little hungry. We also shared a Tiramisu dessert which was nice.
Pros: Tasty, interesting (all vegan) food
Cons: A bit expensive

Be careful! :P - Edit
There's so many options and I got too excited, did not even order a drink. Me and my s/o shared a glass of OJ and fill our plates twice, second one not too much though.
It turns out to be 50€!
I agree with the other person commenting earlier. The plates was heavy and IDK if it's taken into consideration when weighing.
Food was nice and the pinoy staff was helpful. :)
Pros: Options
Cons: Price

lovely food bit pricey for what it is - Edit
The staff were lovely and really helpful as I had never visited before! It's buffet style so you pick your food then weigh your plate before sitting down. It would have been helpful if I'd known how much it was (after weighing) so I could estimate whether I could afford more! Was a bit shocked that my food came to €14 and I didn't even have a full plate! My ot was still hungry after we left as he didn't want to spend more money! The plates are quite heavy and I'm not sure if that is taken into consideration when weighing. The food was nice and tasted good but we didn't get much for what we paid

Il mio primo amore - Edit
Questo locale è stato il mio primo amore e lo consiglio a tutti. La formula è perfetta... si sceglie il tavolo, si prende un piatto e lo si riempie come si desidera e poi si va a pesare... e si paga a peso. Il buffet è veramente vario e sempre rifornito sia con piatti caldi che freddi. Si ha anche la possibilità di riempire dei contenitori take away. Per me il cibo è buonissssimo e sempre vario. Il mercoledì è gluten free vegan.
Pros: menù vario che cambia con le stagioni
Cons: non ho ancora trovato difetti

excellent - Edit
Amazing. In evening it works by weighing your plate at the end. Lots of options for everyone, nice romantic vibe in restaurant (given the style of self service), candles, low light etc.

A must when you're in Rome - Edit
Great experience. Very friendly staff and amazing food. Not the cheapest place but not more expensive then a regular restaurant. The pasta, lasagna and risitto was delicious. The location is a bit off from the tourist spots. 20 min walk from spanish steps or Termini. But it is worth it!
Pros: Amazing Food, Great staff, Great atmosphere
Cons: The location is not the best

A Must Try in Rome - Edit
The food here is absolutely delicious. Ops! is a nice, casual sit down restaurant. You ask for a table, then choose whatever you want from the buffet, and have your plate weighed before returning to your table. There are lots of yummy options to choose from, so it's easy to over-eat and end up with a big bill if you're not careful. Lots of yummy vegan deserts as well. If you are in Rome, definitely check this place out!
Pros: Variety, Delicious, Buffet style
Cons: A little pricey, Closed one day a week- double check hours

Wonderful Lunch Buffet - Edit
Me and mum are on holiday in Italy and ops! is the closest vegan restaurant near our hotel. When we first walked in we were a little confused, I would say to just ignore the 'tags' outside and just go in. You take a plate and load it with whatever you want AND EVERYTHING IS VEGAN! I wish now I had gotten more. You pay by the weight of the plate and pay at the end.
I loved the seitan meat and the tomato chickpeas, and mum loved the vegetable fried dumpling things ha. I then had a dessert of this chocolate pie thing, which was also lovely. It cost 30 euros for 1kg plus a dessert and a glass of wine.
Pros: Variety for vegans, Nice atmosphere, Friendly staff
Cons: Didn't know what some things were
