The best

It's the best place in Lima. There's lot of options and definitely not expensive (compared to restaurants in Cusco)

Limited raw options

Pretty unremarkable to be honest. I expected lots of raw options and left disappointed as there were actually only a few fully raw items in the menu.

We sampled several of their raw flax seed wraps and liked the “ranchero” the most. The tomato flavoured flax wrapper was the highlight of it. The others were somewhat bland and underwhelming, particularly wrap “de linaza”.

The raw carrot cake could have been less sweet.

The crocante bowl and the potato gratin were pretty terrible. The dressing of the bowl was entirely bland and had a taste of nothing. Add to this some boiled potatoes and some plain tofu and you end up with a relatively heavy dish without any flavour. The potato gratin was odd, it was just boiled potatoes with some creamy sauce and some pesto on top of it. It came with a side salad with an incredibly sweet dressing. Definitely avoid this dish.

Their kombucha was awful. I only had one sip, and my husband who is usually less sensitive to overly sweet stuff couldn’t drink much more of it either.

Yummy

Raw cafe is pretty good. The menu is extensive and everything is vegan (which is ideal), the employees are super nice and the place itself is very pretty and green. The food was really good. Had the Gratin de papas, a burger and rojo pasión smoothie. Was all really great, would come again.

Pros: all vegan

Cons: pricy

Flavor Town

Seriously, just go here. So much great flavor. So many delicious vegan options. Such great service. From frothy coffee drinks, fresh juices and smoothies, to breakfast bowls, waffles and wraps, to tacos, nachos, burgers, sandos, wraps, seaweed wraps, tons of amazing desserts and literally so much more on the extensive menu, this corner location has it all. Do not be scared off by the “raw” in this cafe. Everything here is on point.

Pros: Delicious food, Great service, Great ambience

A surprise vegan delight!

Happened upon this place while walking by. It is located opposite the Belgian Embassy. Wide selection of dishes. Returned for another lunch, different dishes same excellent results. Will seek it out again when next in Lima.

Pros: Large varied menu, Comfortable & casual ambiance.

Cons: The wraps (made there) are too small., Why was this location not listed before with you?

Great vegan place in Lima

Finding vegan places in Peru isn’t easy but this place in Lima is a great find.

Fully vegan menu and much to choose from too. Prices are reasonable for western standards but probably a bit expensive for Peruvian standards.

Friendly staff but service is a bit slow.

Definitely recommend visiting when you’re in Lima.

Pros: Fully vegan menu, Friendly staff, Reasonably priced

Cons: Slow service

AMAZING

Omg this place is the best! Food was yummy and healthy, cute atmosphere, and such an extensive menu - the number of options isn’t comparable to any other vegan restaurant in the city. We came twice during our 2 day stay and tried: the tofu scramble, wrap vital, moka, ranchero wrap, jardin bowl, the rojo juice, veggie causa, and some sort of cookie sandwich dessert. Our favorites were the wrap vital, which had an amazing sauce, and tofu scramble, which came with corn cakes that were out of this world. The coffee was decent tasting, which is admirable because good vegan coffee is hard to find in Peru. It’s crazy to me that my hometown of San Francisco doesn’t have a place like this - they should make Raw Cafe into a chain and go global!

Pros: Food is yummy, Healthy, Extensive menu

Cons: Sometimes can be slow, Not cheap

Fresh and diverse menu

Had a portobello mushroom breakfast Burger and it was freshly made and really tasty. Ask for the Aji-chili sauce if you like it spicy (homemade!).

Not good

I have been here several times to give it a chance and everytime the service has been terrible. It takes forever for the staff to wait on you. The other day I was in and sat with someone and after 20 minutes we had to go ask them to wait on me. Then when I went to pay I walked up to the counter and they charged me 107 soles for a 30 soles meal and charged me for the person I sat with without telling me. They never apologized or tried to rectify it.
The pad thai is not pad thai. It is thin noodles with curry and a bad flavor. A friend had fetuchunni and the noodles were not cooked at all and flavor also terrible. The Ranchero wrap was edible. The smoothies are not smoothies they are like a watery juice. One day someone with me gave 100$ Soles and the girl had to be told to bring change back.
I do not recommend eating here. The food is flavorless and service horrible.

Pretty tasty!

There are many options to choose and they all look so good! The only problem I would say is the delay, they take a long time to get the food served...

Delicious!

Delicious food, but unfortunately we had to wait very long… And I don’t really understand why it’s called raw cafe. It’s irritating, because there isn’t much raw.

Nice vibe and great food

What a sweet place to have a meal and spend a while. Very chill, nice staff, and very delicious food.
I had the pizza and it had me hooked from the first to the last bite.
The dessert sweetened with stevia was also excellent, as was the Hulk juice.

Healthy feel-good food

Really likes the vibe of the place. I got the casear salad bowl, tasty, interesting and large. Partner got the potato gratin with pesto and salad, he liked it but thought it was a bit plain. We got vegan cheesecakes for dessert, they were decent but also lacking flavour a bit. But still good food!
