Lovely vegan restaurant - Edit
Sweet little vegan restaurant with very friendly service. Variety of interesting dishes, although not all very well prepared. We had sushi for instance, and it was very warm and mushy. We also had a pesto pasta, and that was fantastic. It might well be a coincidence, but I was hospitalized the next morning with a stomach bug.
Read morePros: Super friendly service, Some dishes are very tasty
Cons: Not everything was good, Pricy for quality

First Vegan meal in Cusco - Edit
This was our first vegan meal after arriving in Cusco, quick service and plenty of tasty options. The menu on the outside was not reflected on the one that was given us, so that, and it being our first meal out in Peru let alone Cusco, did mean we were not very confident on the pricing which was on the high end of our later experiences.

Good food--lots of options - Edit
We ate at Shaman when we visited Cusco recently. As others have stated, there is definitely a "hippie" vibe here including lots of advertisements about the owner and his spiritual retreats and salt crystals everywhere. It was a bit overwhelming from that perspective, but the food was very good. For an appetizer, we ordered an avocado that was stuffed with raw veggies and included a piece of vegan cheese. My husband ordered a soup that was loaded with vegetables and herbs. I ordered a potato dish that was sort of like potatoes that were mashed, stuffed with cooked vegetables, formed into a potato shape and then either fried or baked. Everything was tasty and substantial.
Read morePros: Large menu
Cons: Too new age--doesn't seem authentic

Disappointed - Edit
A very hippie like atmosphere. The waiter did not speak any english and even if we tried to order in Spanish, that somehow was difficult for him? Another customer helped us. We did not have a big appetite, so only ordered a mushroom soup and sushi. The soup was not that great and the sushi was just bad and did not taste good at all. When we said something about it, the guy did not seem to care. Would not come back.

Good food, nice ambience - Edit
The food was good. Could use a bit more season to it. There we're dips which improved it a bit. I don't know if that's the shaman way of cooking. For my personal taste it missed some season. The burger was nice but on the potato fries (selfmade, I liked it alot) was missing salt.
Read moreMaybe I have to give it a second try.
Pros: Nice ambience, A lot of food to choose from, Staff speaks english
Cons: Small portion, Could use more season

likeable place with decent - Edit
I thought the menu offered very interesting choices and the food I had was very good. The decor is a bit overdone in hippy-bowerbird fashion. Convenient location close to the main square.

Favourite restaurant in Cusco - Edit
There are a few other vegan places in town, but for me this one gets the upper hand. The food is so clean, never too oily or over spiced. Andean Quinoa soup is best soup in town! The atmosphere is just perfect. Calm, peaceful and relaxing. The staff are lovely and gentle. 15 soles lunch menu just can't be beaten and there's good WiFi to boot!
