my new favourite - Edit
Wonderful food, friendly stuff, beautiful decoration. Normally I stay away from "all asian food" restaurants - how can you possibly master the food from the whole continent? Well looks like you can. My dream of a place where you can have wonderful ramen and a yummy thai curry at the same table came true. And for a small price too! PS. Pho is wonderful!
Read morePros: lots of vegan options, fantastic vegan meat, authentic tastes

Rewelacja - Edit
Ulubiona restauracja w Krakowie o wielu, wielu lat. Pysznie, bardzo miła obsługa, piękne wnętrze, niezmiennie obszerne i rewelacyjne menu. Wegańska kuchnia azjatycka w najlepszym wydaniu.

very nice indeed - Edit
We both had the sweet potato curry And absolutely loved it I've never had something so flavoursome. Maybe could have done with more rice. The sticky tofu was delicious but more silken than firm which is just a personal preference thing really. Staff were very nice and the choice was huge I would definitely return.

I like this place - Edit
The sushi was very good. You can ask almost for everything to make it vegan, so don't worry. Theres gluten free options. I ordered noodles, too salty in my opinion but still good. You can find the menu online if you wonder. I recomend this place :)
Read morePros: a lot of vegan options, nice crew,
Cons: you will pay a lot, but you will be happy anyway

Good - Edit
Good tasty food, service a little indifferent - the second visit it was quite late on and we were basically told we had an hour before they closed. Also it wasn't clear which of the fake meats were vegan, and which weren't. One chicken dish the first night supposedly was, then the next day the vegan chicken wasn't. They didn't want to alter any dishes on request either. I gave them a Happy Cow window decal and I barely got a thank you.
Read morePros: Some great food, Comfortable surroundings
Cons: Indifferent service, Some confusion around what was vegan

best veggie restaurant of Europe - Edit
It's always a pleasure eating here! The staff is very friendly, amazing atmosphere and the food is beyond words delicious!!! There's nothing to complain really, I had a three course meal and I'm just perfectly filled, not Too much so the portions aren't so big. I had Thai soup with tofu, tofu with chili which was only served with leek so my only wish would be to add more veggies, jasmine rice and little salad, vegan gluten free cake(that was big tbh) It's a place where you can just be with yourself and enjoy a wonderful meal :))
Read morePros: quality of food, options for vegan and gluten free, atmosphere and price!!!
Cons: not enough veggies with main dish

Best vegan Asian food - Edit
If you're looking for good veganised Asian food, Pod Norenami is definitely the place to go. Their menu is huge: they offer many options from misoshiru through jiaozi to sushi. It's definitely one of the places you *have* to visit when you're going on a veg*an culinary adventure in Cracow.
Read moreMy favourite is definitely their ramen: they have several variations, like with vegetable tempura or tofu. The menu says it's vegetarian but you can ask the waitress for a veganised option too (which is just delicious!). It's one of the few places where the spicy scale actually means something. They also offer a great selection of incredible tea and some Asian alcohols.
The prices are on the higher end for veg*an restaurants in Cracow (especially the main dishes with fake 'meat'), but I feel like it's justified. The atmosphere is amazing (the inside is dark-lit and they have great decorations) and it's definitely a place where you can go for a more formal meeting or a date.
The restaurant also has an outdoor garden; I'm not sure if it's open besides summer, but it's sheltered so you can also sit there when it rains.
Pros: great atmosphere, amazing food, big portions
Cons: high prices

Too Shy Shy, Hush Hush Eye to Eye - Edit
It's 3am and I'm writing my review listening to Kajagoogoo on Spotify so that explains the title. This area of Krakow is hugely veg friendly and Pod Norenami plays a key part. We tried a couple of sushi balls with aubergine to start which were a perfect appetiser. The freshly sliced ginger and wasabi provided a little kick. For the main course we had a tofu yellow curry and beef in black bean sauce. Vegan beef of course before anyone asks. There was some confusion as to why some mock beef dishes were labelled vegan and some weren't. The staff appeared to clear this up but I wasn't convinced. Disappointing that the yellow curry had quite a lot of onion in it to bulk it up but it was still very tasty yet liquidy. The 'beef' was succulent and extremely satisfying. Both dishes were served with jasmine rice which we drenched in soy sauce. Rice is always crying out to be soaked in soy sauce. A carafe of white wine and some sparkling water helped digest the food. In total the bill came to 120PLN. This is most acceptable indeed. Any fool who voted Brexit should be made to pay more. Whilst this is not a top ten Happy Cow dining destination for me, it is absolutely somewhere to consider on future visits to my favourite city in the world.
Read morePros: lovely venue, location, vegan choice

Tasty Asian dishes - Edit
Pod Norenami has a really extensive menu, so choosing dishes is quite difficult! We decided to share the vegan sushi set and some momos. The sushi was really good, there was some nice variety and good balance of flavours. The momos had a good vegetable filling and were served with a fiery tomato dip.
Read moreThe restaurant looked really nice inside - very bright and airy at the front, and dark and atmospheric in the back, with some nice Asian influences in the artwork. It was a really nice environment and service was good. Recommended!

Tasty! - Edit
We chose to eat mock beef and mock duck. I was surprised by the size of the portions and happy that I had not ordered a starter.. It was difficult enough to finish the main dishes. We loved it, the food was tasty and atmosphere was warm. As a dessert we shared a vegan brownie cake, also worth trying.
Read moreThe price was reasonable. Everything was perfect but the English skills of the waiter: I asked for vegan desserts and she started to explain about non-vegan cakes. So we were uncertain of whether we were going to get our vegan meals. We got them, alright, but the suspense was not nice. So try to be very clear and simple when you order..
Pros: Vegan dishes were marked., Tasty.
Cons: Language barrier

Out of everywhere I travelled in Europe this restaurant was by far the best, there's so many options to choose from and every dish me and my friends chose over the 4 days in Kraków we loved very much.

Probably the best veg restaurant in Kraków - Edit
I was in Kraków only 4 days for tourism and I have tasted 5 veg restaurant/coffee here. The best, of course, is this because the dishes are veg way of Asian recipes (I love Asian food), it was so tasteful and good! Also because it has many vegan options, so many and easy to get lost choosing among vegan dishes! The waitresses are too kind even I am deaf using written communication in English. Five stars!
Read morePros: many vegan options
Cons: water bottle not cold (maybe it's polish habit...)

What a menu! - Edit
I enjoyed every one of my visits to Pod Norenami. My boyfriend, who is a picky eater (and massive meat fan) loved (!) the food there as well. Menu is huuuuge, which at first made me worried that quality of the dishes might be proportionally low, and I was so wrong. I'm still impressed with cooks skills to deliver so many delicius and unique tasting dishes. Oh, and what really made Pod Norenami our favourite restaurant, apart from food, were board and card games, we had great time playing them :)
Read morePros: board games, big size portions, vegan desserts

Asian-Fusion! - Edit
My favorite Vegetarian restaurant in Kraków.
Read moreThe cuisine does not stick to just one genre of either Korean, Thai, Vietnamese etc. food. Personally, I appreciate this because it means that I can come here often with out getting bored of the meals.
In addition, the waitresses are always really accommodating and always smiling. This is to be treasured in Polish service!
Orders-to-go are packaged in an eco-friendly and heat preserving way with an airtight seal!
Its a bit pricey here depending on what you order, but once you get to know the menu better you can eat here rather often -- even if you are a student. I used to eat at chaper vege restaurants in Kraków, like Greenway, but I quickly noticed that the quality of the food and of the service was terrible there. It's a better idea to cook more often and treat yourself at Pod Norenami or Karma.
Pros: Variety, Service, Location
Cons: Pricey

Excellent Vegan Cake and Restaurant Quality Food - Edit
Well worth a visit, the restaurant is quite informal during the day but a great place to visit in the evening with friends, family or work colleagues.
Read moreThe food was excellent with a wide choice of vegan dishes too and a great choice of teas herbal drinks and also wines and beers.
We visited 3 times whilst in Krakow and would definitely go back....I would love to see a place such as this open up in Manchester, I am sure people would flock to it (even meat eaters)...well done Pod Norenami
Pros: Great Food, Fabulous decor and ambience, Relaxed and inviting

Very slow, not so tasty and a little bit expensive - Edit
I've eaten in different Japanese restaurants (in Japan, USA etc) in the world and I really don't like this place.
Read moreI understand, that's not about Japan or California, but if you are open a such type rest with such price, you should think about excellent service, quality and taste. Because Japanese service is the best service in the world regardless of price.
To wait 15 simple vegan rolls more than 40 minutes is indecently! When we was asking a bill, we immediately got our rolls, but hadn't a chance to enjoy it.
I can't recommend this place for romantic evening, cause it could be spoiled. I can't recommend this place for vegans, cause it has only a few not so tasty vegan dishes. I can't recommend this place for lunch, cause you'll pay a lot and will be wait your order so long. I can't recommend it at all.
Pros: nice interior and central location
Cons: very slow service, not many options for vegans, price

So good that my meat-eating parents went twice - Edit
This place is DELICIOUS. Everything is vegetarian, they speak English and have an English menu, vegan items are clearly marked, and they accept credit cards.
Read moreIt's easy to find, easily accessible and has wifi.
I really liked the decor, but let's be honest - the most important part is the food. The food was amazing. I had the coconut tofu, and it was absolutely amazing. I'd put it in my top 5 meals of all time in Europe.
This place was so good that my parents (who both eat meat) asked if I wanted to go there again for dinner the next night.
Pros: All-vegetarian, Delicious, Friendly
