I can definitely recommend this place..
After you find the street number you go inside a patio and go upstairs to the restaurant.
The almuerzo for cheap 18Bs included salad, soup, main dish, drinks.
(You get bread in the beginning with two tickets - one for the soup, one for the main)
For the salad there was a bar with options like tomatoes, lettuce, pumpkin, sweet potato etc.
You could choose between two soups (for me that day spinach or vegetable soup)..
Afterwards I was already so full that I needed a short eating-break. (haha)
For the segundo you also had two choices (this day #1 a mix of beans and carrots etc with potatoes and broccoli and #2 filled empanadas and a mixed salad).
For the drinks you could get yourself juice or mate from a desk (I guess however often you want)
So in general: for the price a lot of food, very nice staff, I was the only foreigner between 10 Bolivians

great space and good food! - Edit
As of June 2016, lunch costs 18 bolivianos (roughly $2.50) and includes soup, a main dish, bread, juice, and mate. Everything was vegan. The space is big and open and modern - and located in one of the old beautiful buildings in La Paz that used to be family homes, with central courtyards, etc. When you enter, you first pay for the meal, then you get two tickets which you show to the people dishing out the food. We had to choose between two soups, and it seems like maybe you could get seconds, but we were pressed for time and didn't try it this time. Really nice space, very quiet and chill - will definitely go back. The restaurant is on Calle Murillo, just passing Sagarnaga and before reaching Buenos Aires, on the left-hand side.
Pros: Good value, Nice vibe, Location

Must visit for vegans in La Paz - Edit
Excellent meal for very affordable price! It can be hard to find vegan food in La Paz and this was a great find. You get bread, salad, soup, and entree, and beverages for 18 bolivianos.

Amazing Prices for a Healthy Meal - Edit
great place (100% vegan) for healthy and nutritious food. salad, soup, main dish and unlimited drinks (juices and teas, all unsweetened) for 18bs. all tasted great, though the soup could have used some salt maybe :) will be back tomorrow.

Modern And Cheap - Edit
After days of eating average, expensive veg food, this was a great find! Big salad, soup, main and drink for 15bob. Food a little under seasoned for our tastes, but healthy and big portions!
Pros: All Vegan, Cheap, Big Portions

Delicious vegan food in La Paz - Edit
It was really great to find such a nice vegan restaurant in La Paz, conveniently located in the city center, close to several points of interest such as the San Francisco Church and the Witches' Market. Not only for the excellent food, for the friendly staff and for the fair price (15-17 Bs), I liked this restaurant because it is made by and for locals. I ate there three times and locals were always the majority. The place is definitely not fancy.
Regarding the food, it consists in a basket of breads as the entrance, a plate of salad of your free choice, a soup and finally a main dish. From what I noticed, the main dish is normally offered in two options, but the first time I ate there one of the options was already over. They are ok about combining the options in case you don't like one of the elements of one of them, for example - happened to me. The price also includes beverages, normally teas and refrescos.
In short, totally recommended. Great place to reencounter nature.
Pros: Delicious food, Very good price, Nice vibe

Excellent - Edit
Great modern place that is really good value. The place is upstairs in a courtyard with other businesses around. I payed on entry for the almuerzo (lunch) and I was given a bread basket and two tickets (one for soup, one for main). You move over to the next counter where you can choose salad and a choice of soup.
Most people sit and eat this and then go back up to the other counter for the main. I had vegetable pastel, rice and plantain and a juice as well. All in all you get loads of food and you won't be dissapointed.
The place is really busy which is great to see Bolivians young and old eating vegan food. If you are familiar with Bolivian cuisine you will know healthy food is very scarce.

Vegan almuerzo - Edit
Healthy set menu. I ate more than 10 times there and it's nice to see this place packed with locals!
The previous reviewer mixed up the almuerzo price with another restaurant, it currently cost 15 Bs.
Pros: Vegan, Healthy, Very clean restaurant
Cons: Closed for dinner

Excellent food in La Paz - Edit
[I went there on March 2015, and the prices were NOT the same as indicated: 34Bs. the set menu. The restaurant is now all vegan and the hours were as follows: Monday-Saturday 12:00-14:00]
Even if the menu may seem a bit expensive (34Bs.) it is worth the money, for this includes a salad (from the salad buffet), a soup, a main course, a drink, a mate and bread.
The day I went I had the salad (you can freely chose from many options: lettuce, onions, carrots, potatoes, etc.), the 'sopa de papalisas' (aka ollucos, a kind of root crop similar to the potato), the 'pastel de garbanzos con arroz' (chickpeas pastel with rice), an amaranth drink and an anise mate. The other option available for the main course was the 'empanada con verduras' which was really good.
The service was very friendly, allowed us to have a free refill of the drinks, to go back for more salad, and so on.
Small indications: the restaurant is situated in the 2nd floor so you have to take the stairways, and then you have to pay first at the entrance and then remit your tickets when you want to have your soup or your main course.
I only wish they had a smaller menu for a cheaper price in case you're not that hungry and you don't want to spend 34Bs.
Pros: Very, very good food, Good atmosphere, All vegan
Cons: Price (but still fair)
