Delicious!

I had the lao-tzu while my husband had the vegetable curry. It is worth noting he is not vegan. Nonetheless, we both enjoyed the food tremendously :)

INCREDIBLE

Samsara's Garden is a haven of amazing food, welcoming vibes, and warm patrons. This is the best vegan and vegetarian food I have had in all the world! It truly nourishes your soul!

Gold, pure revolutionary gold

Basically, I lived at the Samsara in Antigua for two weeks. So I was super stoked to discover the magic didn’t have to stop. The owner has such a powerful vision of what the food industry can be. He’s closing the loop and creating a zero waste model — wahooo. Plus, the food is THE VEGAN DANKNESS 🙏🙏. So many flavors and options — I’m not kidding, it’s like a vegan’s dreamland. Love this place tremendously for the high quality eats with such an inspiring mission.

p.s typically not a review writer, but this place just reallllly has it goin on 😉

Healthy, and delicious

All vegan menu, no junk food, and delicious. Just eaten here once, but there's so many things to try I think I might eat here everyday.

Pros: So much to choose from, Cool drinks menu too

Cons: To little time in San Marcos to try everything.

Big Buddha loving

Shared the peanut tempe and wok with a mate and glad I did because both were equally 🔝. Just what was needed post-Acatenango, filling without being heavy. The sort of thing that would cost three times the price in London, but not cheap by Guat standards. I normally have street food so this was a treat, but so worth it. The desserts in the display looked divine, even had vegan Reese's! Very hippy buddhisty yoga vibes with wavey music.

Pros: Delicious, Filling and healthy

Cons: New agey

Fav Restaurant Ever

I'm so happy to have found this place. My friend who is gluten-free and I went here 3 times a day every day because we knew we'd always get incredible food with many options for vegans. The whole restaurant has a great vibe and I just wish that they would get a location in my hometown!

Pros: Variety, Gluten-Free, Vegan

Favourite vegan in San Marcos

The tempeh bowl with peanut sauce got us coming back to samsara. In the 10 days we've stayed there I guess we've been 5 times to samsara. It's a must! Also the breakfast is amazing. Scrambled tempeh was my favourite. The ginger chia juice is also delicious! Oh yeah and the humus... OK basically everything😄

Pros: Tempeh bowl , Chia ginger juice , Amazing breakfast

Surely you’re joking

This place is amazing!!! Every dish we tried was incredible, the peanut bowl, the wok and the curry veggie toast we loved. But everything is worth trying. Such lovely staff as well with great recommendations. Beautiful little restaurant (-:

Perfect spot

Managed to bag a window seat & settled in with a book. Liked the ambience & waiter/esses were friendly (read put up with my broken Spanish).

Lots of Kombucha and teas available. Great potato curry which I would highly recommend if you fancy a bigger meal!

Shame I didn’t find it sooner

Pros: Ambience , Stays on theme , Friendly staff

Spread everywhere please!

I ate there twice as I had to come back to enjoy more of their delicious vegan dishes. The Kimchi bowl was my absolute favourite. I enjoyed it a lot! The tabouleh had a little too much liquid in it but was served with delicious bread and abundant hummus! The smoothies were delicious and the Napolitan cheesecake was quite tasty as well. Nice location with window seats. Friendly staff, Wi-Fi, cute place. Prices are acceptable.

Pros: Food, wi-fi, staff, free water

Cons: Prices maybe

SlowFu

I had a great vegan meal. It took almost 90 min to get the food. All the tables were complaining about the painfully slow service. But excellent food. Conflicted about this place. Will give it another shot though.

Pros: The food is delicious.

Cons: The service is sooooo slow.

Yes!

Went here several times during my stay in Antigua. The vegan pancakes are amazing! Had the scrambled tofu, too. Although it wasn’t scrambled, it was very delicious. Great juices and energy (oat) balls. Lunch is great, too. Had some desserts for takeaway. One was very good, the other one not so much.

Still, I really liked this place (music, ambience), so I would honestly give 4,5 stars (but that’s not possible).

Totally recommend!

Pros: Many vegan options, Great pancakes! , Vegan sweets

Cons: When full, the orders take a while, Some staff members sometimes not very attentive , A little expensive for Guatemala

Good

Ate here 4 times in all. The food is always good. There are some very inventive sounding dishes on the menu but most of them end up tasting the very similar.
The restaurant is in a great location and has a nice ambience.
Definately a good option for an evening meal.

Pros: Vegan options, Nice vibe

Muchas opciones veganas, hay que llegarse

Lo mejor restaurante en antigua para desayunar, almorzar y cenar!!! Los batidos son muy buenos, la comida excelente. A uno que come mucho, mejor pedir plato para compartir, así que se llena. El reese es buenísimo como postre, y el wok con tempeh como plato fuerte es muy rico. El menú identifica lo que es vegano y gluten free, pues aún cocinan con huevos y leche.

Pros: Muchas opciones veganas
