A small, inexpensive 100% vegan place. Offers a wide selection of snacks, hamburgers, kebabs, sandwiches, fried snacks (done by air frying so no oil) and sweets (cakes, truffles, alfajor, etc.). Made-in-house vegetable milk options, such as oatmeal, soy, brazil nut, peanuts, almond and rice are available for coffee drinks, and also can be bought separately in 1L bottles. Open Mon-Sat 7:30am-10:30pm, Sun 10:00am-5:00pm.

do yourself a favor and avoid this place - Edit
I don't know how Semente de Girassol is still open. They serve really poor food and it's likely they have absolutely no food by the time you arrive. People like this place because they are activists but there's no point of doing this without any commitment to the food or the people. They used to have good pizzas, not anymore, soft serve, not anymore, nice sandwiches, not anymore, nice sweets and cakes, not anymore. They've moved to a nicer and bigger place but nothing has changed at all.
Last five times I went there I left barehand and I'm done with this place.
Pros: cheap tofu, Alfajor
Cons: no food all the time

Awesome! - Edit
Amazing selection of vegan foods! You can try typical Brazilian foods like the coxinha. They have an amazing tofu that is just like goats cheese in the sandwiches and pizza. Delicious cakes too! Really nice atmosphere. They don't speak English and there's no menu or labels but since you know it's all vegan you can just point at what you want :)

Amazing place! - Edit
This is just the most wonderfull place. you can eat lunch which costs just 7 real (2 euro's). You can ask to refill your plate as often as you like.
They have pizza's, cakes, chocolate,.. all vegan.
You can also buy vegan products there like food items or dog food. Next to that they also promote vegan and environmentally-friendly products such as a certain tooth paste.
The people that work there are all vegan and very friendly!
It's quite a small place, and it attracts a lot of people, so sometimes it can be full.
It's very cheap and they reach a lot of people with the vegan message and are promoting a better world! I will be visiting this place more often!
Pros: All vegan, Very cheap, Friendly and welcoming athmosphere
Cons: Too small

Very friendly, great food, good atmosphere! - Edit
Me and my partner, as two strange tourists, arrived late for lunch and early for dinner. But they made great food for us! We'll be back tomorrow, to eat cake and pizza! The place is so cheap, and they make wonderful food.

yummi quality - Edit
as i am travelling the world as a vegan dj, i am always excited to check out new places. i've been to more than 60 countries and already a few times to Curitiba and never had the chance of checking out this little gem!
as i don't really care about the price of a dish as long as i am supporting a nice little cafe, i was simply blown away after having 2 pieces of a very tasty pizza plus 4 more items to take away when it came down to payment: 20R$? 6€!!!
this is probably the cheapest good quality tasteful food i ever had all over the world in a pure vegan place!!!
Go there and check it out! full support!
Pros: home made good quality food, unbeatable prices, satisfying selection
Cons: too far away if u are not from Curitiba

best vegan pizza ever - Edit
Again Happy Cow suggested us a very cool place to have vegan food. When we arrived at Girassol, the small restaurant has been packed. Many food was gone already but we were lucky to get to try three sorts of vegan pizza which was just incredible. Honestly we couldn't believe that there has been no cheese in it. Also, the juice has been fantastic. Furthermore, everything has been really cheap. A slice of pizza was 3 Reales (1€), a piece of chocolate cake as well and the fresh juice has been 4 Reales. Really recommend this place for an uncomplicated, delicous and cheap dinner.

Vale a Pena! - Edit
O lugar é muito barato, e a comida é boa! Bom e barato é exatamente o tipo de lugar que me dá prazer em comer.
Porém eles tem poucas mesas (menos de 10, com certeza) e tem poucos funcionários, o que torna o atendimento bem mais lento. Apesar disso tem muitas opções de comida e sucos.
O lugar vende também livros, tofu, grãos, et cetera...
Pros: Barato, Comida Gostosa
Cons: Atendimento à desejar, Pouco espaço (apesar de aconchegante)

Great Vegan Food - Edit
The food here was so great and very tasty. It has not been easy to find good vegan food here in Brazil so far but this place just made my heart sing. Though it had no sign and we were a little unsure if we found the right place at first. There is not a lot of room to sit and eat but the food it great to go and have a picnic in the city.
Pros: Excellent Food, Good Value, Friendly Staff
Cons: Not a lot of sitting areas, no sign out front
