Serious Vegan Buffet

Yes it's true Vegan Buffet from 1pm to 10pm. I arrived at 5pm so it looks like a fresh amount of food has just come out from the kitchen. There are few Vegan Buffets anywhere except for a Hare Krishna around the globe. A special treat with plenty of options. SAWOBALI is also a nice little bakery as well as a neat statue gift shop. Enjoy!

Pros: Buffet has 10 trays of options, Fair price for a buffet!, Centrally located with lots of parking

Cons: n/a

One the best vegan buffets we've had

50k buffet, very great taste! Vegan chocolate cake was also very nice. We we're also glad about free cold water and no plastic bottles. The service was also very nice and kind. We'll come again!

Try the buffet!

Fully vegan (also gluten free) buffet was great as a dinner. Traditional balinese flavours, not too oily and many options for an affortable price. Really liked the food and the owners are friendly too. Tried those gluten free vegan cookies as well but the were bad...

Pros: Good value, Great food, Cute place

Cons: Desserts not that good

Great buffet, but gluten free vegan cake not so good

It´s nice to get to a vegan buffet now and then, because restaurant food portions in Ubud are often a bit small. Eating at Sawobali becomes cheaper than eg. ordering a starter and main course elsewhere. And the food in the buffet was fresh and they had also tofu and tempe + some kind of mock meat.

Only on the lowest row of the cake shelf they have some vegan cakes, they are marked with "v". But I don´t think it´s good that the vegan cakes are also gluten free (these cakes are marked vgf = vegan gluten free). I had lemon cake and the cake bottom was what the gluten free cakes are at their worst = not spongy, light or fluffy, but instead a clump of moisture flour. All the other cakes looked like they had the same kind of bottom. But I hope all are not the same.

At least on 22nd October 2016 they still had a couple of meat options on their menu, so it´s not completely vegetarian restaurant.

Pros: Great buffet, Buffet is cheap compared to Ubud restaurant prices

Cons: Vegan cakes are gluten free and not good, You may get mistaken that all cakes would be vegan

Fantastic vegan buffet and so much more!

Fresh, flavorful, variety of vegan dishes on buffet, which changes daily. Rice included, red or white, as well as soup. Today there is a mix of sautéed potatoes; spicy tempeh; scrambled tofu; mashed pumpkin; coconut veg mix; curried peanut leaf with red beans; and more. Simply delicious!! There was a steady stream of regular customers (including takeaways). I'll definitely be joining the regulars. No space left to try one of the mouthwatering variety of vegan cakes (carrot, tiramisu, best chocolate ever, etc.), or ice cream, so may have to make a second visit later on. No problem at these prices! 50k for buffet, 25k for large slice of cake. Seriously a favorite!

Pros: flavor, variety, selection, value
