Best Restaurant in Heidelberg

Vegetarian restaurant with lots of vegan options. Healthy saladas as well as delicious warm dishes. Not pricy at all but still very filling.

Pros: 30min walking from Altstadt, Location , Nice staff

Cons: Few vegan desserts

Lots of choice but can be pricey

This is a lovely place slightly out of the old town (ten minutes walk). There is a huge buffet with at least ten vegan dishes. You pay by weight, and at about 1 euro per 100g, this can become pricey if you try to sample a bit of everything (and it does all look good). We ended up paying 40 euro (that included a glass of wine). But the food is tasty and the staff are brilliant. There is a mix of German (cooked fennel, pumpkin slices, marinated warm onions) and world food such as Greek beans, felafel, cous cous) and lots of salads. The desserts however are mostly vegetarian.

Pros: Variety, Staff, Taste

Cons: Can be pricey if you treat it as a trad. buffet, A little way out of town, More vegan desserts would be great

Fresh but pricey

Went to the buffet twice, mostly vegan options (clearly labelled) and lots of variety (salads and hot options changing daily).
Have not tried the fixed menu offer (9,50€), but assembling a plate for a full lunch got pricey quickly.
Still, everything was fresh and tasty including dessert.
Home made drinks (fresh juices/ smoothies) and local beverages on offer.

Could easily go fully vegan, which seems to be missing in Heidelberg.

Pros: Fresh and seasonal, Variety, Friendly staff

Cons: Priced by weight at 2,60€ per 100g

Not a real buffet.

A good selection of vegan options. Nice and pleasant eating environment. To earn a five star they need to become a 100% plant-based restaurant. I do not like buffets that charge by weight...rip-off. You really can't enjoy your food. We would only visit again if in the area.

Pros: Vegan options clearly labeled., Some dishes were tasty

Cons: 2,60 euro per 100 grams...very pricey., Lots of dishes were very salty

Great variety of food, quite pricey

In addition to a daily (?) dish, Red‘s main offer is its huge buffet with vegetarian/vegan options, the latter are clearly marked. You take a plate and start filling it. This concept allows you to try whatever you are in the mood for, and you pay by weight at the end. As for the dishes, for me, it’s mostly hit/miss: some are awesome, some a bit bland. The atmosphere is quite basic, but suits the concept - however, for me, it doesn’t fully fit to the prices which are more on the upper scale.

Vielfältiges Buffet

Im Buffet finden sich viele tolle Sachen. Im Gegensatz zu abgehobeneren Restaurants sind hier viele Dinge, wie ich sie mir selbst kochen würde, wenn ich mir was gönnen will - nur in einer Menge und Vielfalt, die ich für mich selbst nie zubereiten würde.

Pros: Reichhaltiges Buffet

Cons: Teuer

Ok but where are the vegan desserts?

There wasn’t a huge variety of warm vegan dishes and the the ones that were available weren’t especially exciting. There were plenty of salad options which seems bizarre to me when it is so cold. The vegan items were identified with the addition of a flower on the description of the item. I had all the vegan hot options I could. There was a rice ball that I found a bit dry and the other things were fine, just not amazing. I had a large orange juice which was ok.

I’m always up for a dessert so I glanced at the cakes. Pretty disappointed to see there was maybe 1 vegan option.

The place itself is quite nicely decorated.

Buffet with mostly vegan dishes

Many vegan options at the buffet. Some were good, some were a bit boring. A bit overpriced in my opinion. I had a cake for dessert, which was incredibly tasty! The service was good.

Sehr leckere vegetarische Gerichte

Das Red ist eines unserer Lieblingsrestaurants in Heidelberg. Es gibt ausschließlich vegetarische oder vegane Gerichte. Man kann sich an einem Buffet bedienen, der Preis wird nach Gewicht berechnet. Außerdem hat man noch die Wahl ein Tagesgericht zu bestellen. Das Ambiente ist einfach aber gemütlich und es gibt Optionen draußen zu sitzen. Es gibt ebenfalls leckere Kuchen und Desserts.

Pros: Vegane Optionen, Rein vegetarisches Restaurant, Glutenfreie Optionen

Sehr lecker!

Das Essen war super lecker und die Auswahl an veganen Gerichten sehr groß! Leider konnte man nicht wirklich einschätzen, wie teuer das Essen nach dem Aufwiegen ist. Für meinen Teller habe ich über 14€ bezahlt.

Great buffet style vegetarian food

A lovely spot with lots of outside tables. Buffet style, all vegan items are labelled. There used to be a similar restaurant in London but sadly it didn’t survive the pandemic. I wish Red was also in London!
