Fresh food and big servings

A separate vegan menu (ask for it) provides many options, with fresh and flavoursome food on offer.
Very comfortable setting, and so lovely to have a couple of puppers sitting inside with their families.
A lovely setting with delicious food. The pasta dishes were Devine. Bellissimo!!
Back for take 2 today at lunch time and am happy to report the vegan margherita pizza is also pure lovely 🥰

Amazing pizza

They have a vegan menu which we got amongst the regular menu, we did not have to ask for it. They have starters, main courses, pizzas and even desserts. I had pizza Margherita with rice mozzarella and it was amazing, really thin dough and tasty cheese. The restaurant is very cozy.

Pros: Many options , Tasty pizza, Cozy atmosphere

Cons: Italian service is slower 😀 but it is ok

Great! 😋

The Osteria was a great find for us, with very kind staff, a wonderful atmosphere and delicious food! We had the polenta-mushroom-eggplant starter and shared the vegan Margarita and were super happy with our choice! Would definitely recommend and we'll be back to try out more! 😋

Pros: Feels like a local gem!, Delicious vegan food, Extra vegan menu / clearly marked

Cons: (Not all vegan)

delicious pizza

We had dinner at Casa Pepe & enjoyed our pizza very much. Plenty of vegan choices, you have to ask for the vegetarian/vegan menu. Great pizza, fast service. Enjoyable atmosphere, exactly what I would want to experience in an Italian pizza place. Very recommendable.

Pros: plenty of vegan choices, nice atmosphere & location, good quality food

Paccheri e parmigiana degni di nota

I paccheri veg con crema di ceci e la parmigiana di melanzane con mozzarella di riso erano spettacolari! Da tornarci. Il locale poi è davvero accogliente e carino.

Great vegan food

How lucky we were to have found this L’Osteria! We asked for the vegan menu and were pleasantly surprised by the great and varied selection. The complimentary starter was already a lovely touch—and the appetizer, a polenta bruschetta, was absolutely amazing. I went on to have a stuffed pizza with rice mozzarella, a super tasty salad, fresh white bread with fantastic olive oil, and finished off with a delicious cake. The house wine was also delightful. I can wholeheartedly recommend this place—super friendly service, great atmosphere, and outstanding vegan cuisine.

Pros: Nice stuff, Delicious vegan food

Solid option in Trieste

You have to specifically request the vegan menu, as they by default give you a regular one without any marked vegan options I honestly thought it was overpriced for what it was, but the food was still nice. I was suggested to get 2 dishes as they said the portions were small, but 2 dishes was definitely too much for one person as the appetisers are quite big.

Pros: Many vegan options, Italian food

Cons: Pricy, Vegan menu only by request

The best in Trieste!

My friend (she’s doing veganuary!) and I were looking for affordable, vegan eats and this place is the best for it! We enjoyed their fried pizza appetizer (be warned, it’s huge) which was an easy 11/10. We tried two pizzas for our main which we were thrilled by. It’s not the best vegan cheese out there but it melts nicely and doesn’t taste too bad! If we were here longer, we’d try the full menu. Also, the 2euro extra charge someone reported isn’t for the free veggies- it’s the coperto. #Veganuary

Pros: Extensive vegan menu, Good atmosphere, Affordable

Favorite pasta ever

We stumbled upon this restaurant by mistake and to our luck, they had a separate vegan menu, I loved the pasta dish with the yellow cherry tomatoes, olives and capers. It was so delicious, I’ve tried making it myself at home many times

Menù vegano a richiesta

A richiesta mi hanno portato un menù interamente vegano. Ho provato la montanara di pizza fritta e i paccheri con crema di ceci. Tutto molto buono e prezzi nella norma.

More options than expected in Italy

You have to ask for a separate vegan menu (I don't understand why it's simply not a part of the menu everyone gets). There are a few options for every phase of an Italian dinner - antipasti, primi, secondi, dolce. There are also some vegan pizzas - but you can choose any vegetarian pizza on the ordinary menu and swap the mozzarella with a vegan one.
I tried parmigiana and some pasta. Both were very good - although I'd expect the portion of parmigiana to be a bit bigger (it was in the secondi section of the menu).
I'm definitely coming back to try some other things they have on the menu. :)

Pros: Vegan menu with different options

Cons: Size of the secondi

Really Good Vegan Menu

They have a separate vegan menu that you have to ask for. The options all looked pretty good, they have appetizers, first and second course, and a dessert.

We just ordered two pizzas and something to drink. Pizzas were really good, supper thin dough with a thick and fluffy crust, really good tomato sauce, and vegan mozzarella made from rice.

—They also gave us an appetizer which we hadn't ordered, the waiter told us its from the house, so I was a bit surprised when I saw it on the receipt afterwards, it was €2 per plate, for basically a piece of lettuce, two olives and a big caper. Felt a bit scummy, I have no idea if this is common in Italy as I've never seen this done before in other restaurants.—

It didn't take away from the experience that much as the rest of the food was really cheap, but still felt a bit scammed.

Pros: Really Good Pizza, Cheap Price, Cool Atmosphere

Cons: Unwanted Appetizer, "Secret" Vegan Menu

Delicious vegan pizza

I was finding it difficult to find vegan pizza in the area, but HC guided me here and I was so happy with my pizza. The waiting staff were lovely and the pizza was delicious. Would eat here again.
There was a separate vegan menu with a range of dishes to choose from.

Pros: Choice of meals , Delicious pizza, Good price

Piacevolissima esperienza

Ristorante con un intero menù vegano, presentato purtroppo solo su richiesta. I piatti sono abbondanti e molto gustosi e l'ambiente è piacevole.

Cons: Il menù vegano è a parte, va chiesto

Great dinner spot

This traditional Osteria (although modern in appearance) is a perfect place for a lovely evening. Conveniently located with seating outside (reservations recommended) and inside offers a good range of vegetarian options and also has a vegan menu (you have to ask for it though).
Good food, friendly service. Not 100% veggie, but highly recommended!

Pros: Food, Service, Atmosphere

Fantastic dinner

So far the best dinner in Trieste. I recommend making a reservation. Competent staff. Vegan menu unfortunately only available on request. Excellent Italian cuisine without frills. Excellent! Coming back tomorrow.

Three years ago I liked the food but not the waiters and the mood, now the mood was good and the waiters very kind.

Fair but...

Probably the best vegan pizza in the region.
The menu is pretty good even if some additional protein ingredient would be welcome.
The vegan cheese uses is not the best (texture especially).
The service was a bit chaotic.
For the price it was fair.

Pros: Dough

Cons: Service a bit long, Vegan moza

Menù completo con buona scelta. Tutto molto gustoso a prezzi super

Il menù offre antipasti, primi, secondi e un dolce vegano davvero buoni e gustosi. Le pizze hanno un impasto fantastico e sono ben farcite (anche la mozzarella di riso viene messa in abbondanza). I prezzi sono più bassi della media! Ambiente molto carino e accogliente con personale gentile. L'unica cosa che mi e dispiaciuta è dover chiedere il menù vegano perché, se non mi fossi informata prima, avrei ordinato una pizza marinara senza sapere che c'era un menù a parte così bello.

Amazing pizza!

The restaurant is not vegan, but they have an extra vegan menu (Ask for it). Appetizer, pizza and dessert were incredible! Really nice and helpful service. Oh and I recommend making a reservation.

best vegan dinner

A cosy restaurant with a separate vegan menu (you have to ask for it). The food (vegan and non-vegan) was amazing. Some of the staff were super friendly, some equally (and strangely)unfriendly🤪. Couldn't lessen our delightful dinner experience though. Only disappointment: vegan dessert from the menu wasn't available. Will definitely go again hoping to get that dessert after all😂

Pros: Food!!!, Atmosphere, Separate vegan menu!

Cons: some of the staff seemed to have a REALLY bad day , no vegan dessert (although on the menu)

Great food!

They have a separate vegan menu that you have to ask for (our waiter was new though and didn't know anything about a vegan menu, but a different waiter gave us the vegan menu).
We had a vegan pizza with yellow tomatoes (awesome!) And the chickpea pasta (okay).
