Mittelmäßiges Essen und unfreundlicher Service

Das Essen schmeckt nicht nach viel, die Portionen sind klein und es ist sehr teuer. Das Personal war sehr unaufmerksam und etwas unfreundlich.

Pros: 2-3 vegane Optionen

Cons: Essen war kalt, Sehr kleine Portionen, Teuer

Great vibes, friendly people

Arepas were filling, we got the soy protein and the bean and vegetable filling. 100% gluten free venue!

In Ordnung

Die Auswahl an veganen Speisen ist überschaubar. Dennoch gibt es jede Option auch in vegan. Leider war das Essen kalt (die Protein Quelle). Zum sitzen gibt es wenige Möglichkeiten. Dennoch eine schöne Abwechslung an Speisen aus Venezuela.

Vegan Arepas and Empanadas

Venezuelan restaurant with good vegan options. I'm always happy to go to a Latin American restaurant here in Germany, and it was no different here. It works like this: you order, pay and pick up your order at the counter. I ordered in "español": a "vegan empanada", a "vegan arepa domino" and a "bowl con frijoles negros vegano". I also ordered a "panela" to drink. The dishes took a long time to be ready, but I was also full. The empanada and arepa were delicious. The "panela" juice was incredible, but the "bowl" was reasonable, nothing exceptional. I left still hungry from the small quantities of snacks, but happy to have gone to this restaurant, as I felt very much at home and the welcome was super warm.

Restaurante venezuelano com boas opções veganas. Sempre fico feliz em ir num restaurante latino-americano aqui na Alemanha, e aqui não foi diferente. Funciona assim: você faz o pedido, paga e pega o pedido no balcão. Fiz o pedido em “español”: uma “empanada vegana”, uma “arepa domino vegana” e um “bowl con frijoles negros vegano”. Pedi também uma “panela” pra beber. Os pratos demoraram bastante para ficar prontos, mas também estava cheio. A “empanada” e a “arepa” achei deliciosa. A “panela” estava incrível, mas o “bowl” estava razoável, nada excepcional. Saí ainda com fome com as quantidades pequenas dos lanches, mas feliz de ter ido neste restaurante, pois me senti muito em casa e a recepção foi super calorosa.

Filling arepas with vegan cheese options

Clearly labeled vegan options including fillings made with beans, tofu, and vegan cheese! Not a lot of seating

Delicious Venezuelan food

Many vegan options and the Arepa Soyada I had was very delicious. I was only visiting Heidelberg but if I ever come back I would definitely come here again. If possible I would even give it 5 stars although they serve meat :)

Pros: Many vegan options, Friendly staff

Vegan und glutenfrei

Viele vegane Optionen, Arepas und Empanadas sind glutenfrei und total lecker.
Kleines aber feines Restaurant im Herzen Heidelbergs. Sehr zu empfehlen.

No toilet

The food is okay but they don't have a toilet. They'll send you to a public one down the street which smelled so horribly like piss that I almost vomited

Pros: Vegan options

Cons: No toilet

Herbstliche Überraschung

Beim schlendern über den diesjährigen Heidelberger Herbst, konnte ich es fast nicht fassen tatsächlich vegane und glutenfreie Empanadas zu bekommen!

Überfreudig wurde sofort an dem Außenstand bestellt und geschmaust.

Die Füllung der Empanada war super lecker, da sie sehr würzig und unaufdringlich scharf schmeckte.

Der Mantel der Empanada bestand vermutlich zum Großteil aus Reismehl und würde im Vergleich zu einem herkömmlichen Empanadamantel abstinken, aber für eine glutenfreie Version war daran nichts auszusetzen.

Ich werde das Restaurant definitiv wieder besuchen und mir beim nächsten Mal die Zeit nehmen, ein vollständiges Menü zu kosten.

Hallo Shannen, entschuldige unsere sehr verspätete Antwort. Es freut uns, dass die Empanadas geschmeckt haben. Es handelt sich bei dem Teig um Mais. Ich hoffe, Du hattest schon Gelegenheit andere unserer glutenfreien und veganen Speisen zu probieren. 🙏
