Amazing - Edit
It was literally one year I'd been trying to go to this restaurant but every time something came up (I don't live in Rome anymore). What can I say? It was very good to eat a vegan carbonara and have dinner in a place with so many different choices! It is absolutely to try if you are in Rome!

Pizza mejorable... - Edit
Lo elegimos por las buenas valoraciones, pero no nos convenció...
Read moreMuchísimas opciones veganas. Pedimos 2 pizzas, bastante insípidas.
El camarero que nos atendió fue muy simpático, hablaba español por lo que no tuvimos ningún problema para comunicarnos. Fuimos sin reserva y nos hicieron sitio.
El restaurante estaba a tope y los camareros estaban bastante saturados.
Pros: Camarero muy simpático, Muchísimas opciones veganas
Cons: Pizza no muy buena..., Los camareros no daban abasto

Not welcoming for solo travelers. - Edit
Tonight is my last night in Rome. I wanted to experience one last taste of beautiful cuisine. So, I made my way from my hotel to Rifugio Romano.
Read moreRight from the first moment, I felt unwelcome. Largely ignored by the team, I loitered around trying to show them my EU COVID Vaccination Certificate and get them to nominate a table. Finally, after being asked 'only you?' multiple times by two different team members... despite tables being free I was told to wait on the footpath while a couple finished their meal at the footpath table they had decided to offer me. It was two tables over from an empty one. I would have at least liked to be given the QR code for the menu.
I'm stubborn though. It was bitterly cold and I wasn't keen to walk to another venue.
Eventually, the couple finished their meal and I sat down - relishing the opportunity to warm up thanks to being close to a gas burner.
After an awkward and aggressive ordering experience, I finally managed to get my hands on a pizza and drink.
The reason I give this 3 stars is the pizza and drink. If you have time and as determined as I am, the food is worth it.
There are some fantastic places to enjoy vegan food in Rome though. If you're traveling solo I recommend you consider your options before choosing this one.
This wasn't how I'd imagined the last night of my first visit to Italy to end.
Pros: Excellent food.
Cons: Might be some service issues for solo travelers.

Very good food - Edit
The amount of food that you are given is very big and the food in general is very good (we returned the next day). The prices are very reasonable and we will definitely come back in the future.
Read moreThe only bad this is the amount of tables they have. The quality is well known in the area and making a reservation is a must on weekends (otherwise you might get a table outside)
Pros: Lots of vegan options, Great quality for the price, Very friendly staff that speak several languages
Cons: Not many tables (booking necessary sometimes)

Delicious food but weird vibes from personnel - Edit
Needless to say the food is absolutely scrumptious and the fact that they have a full vegan menu with revisited traditional roman meals is praiseworthy. However the personnel seemed inexperienced, anxious and overall confused with how to approach us clients.

It was okay - Edit
I got a vegan pizza that wasn't that good... The prices are okay, but the fake meats and fake cheese aren't it. Everything was too greasy and too salty. The pasta is probably better, since it is easier to make good vegan pasta. Why not give it a try, but don't expect to get a stunning vegan pizza. The vegan tiramisu was great though.
Read morePros: Quite cheap overall, Great vegan tiramisu
Cons: Vegan pizzas are not it, Pizza dough is mediocre, Service was correct but not great

Best Place Ever! - Edit
This place is amazing, it serves traditional Italian dishes veganized and everything is delicious. I had the "cacio e pepe" pasta and it was the best one in my life, even considering the non-vegans ones I used to eat! If you are in Rome you cannot miss this place! Portions are huge, prices are comparable if not even lower than many restaurants in Rome. At night I dream upon when I'll be in Rome again to eat at this place!
