All vegetarian pizzas and vegan cheese option

I won't say “WOW” for this vegan pizza because I can make it better. At least it can satisfy a vegan or a vegetarian person who is a pizza fanatic.

Need to improve: I think it is because of your compassion that you run this business. It is a blessing for our animal friends if you can use completely vegan cheese. Human beings torture them for dairy products. They will be grateful for your heroic action.

Pros: friendly service and no extra fees, wood fire oven

Una verdadera sorpresa

Después de estar comiendo tallarines y arroz se agradece el cambio. Las pizzas son pequeñas pero están muy buenas.

Cons: Es caro

Average vegan cheese pizza

Read more in this vegan Taipei guide: https://itravelforveganfood.com/vegan-taipei-guide/

This vegetarian pizza place in Ximending has vegan cheese. When you first enter, you are greeted by a wood fire pizza oven. The decor is rustic with brick walls and big wooden tables.

The pizza is a one-person size. This mushroom asparagus flavor has quite a lot of toppings and the vegan cheese is decent. The crust is crispy, but rather dense. Overall the taste is good but not too impressive.

Pros: Vegan cheese option

Cons: Taste average

Expensive but a nice option.

One of the more expensive places we visited, pizzas cost 175 Nt if taking out. I first ordered vegan pesto and mushroom which was disgusting, pesto tasted like aniseed. Next time I asked for plain vegan cheese and tomato and it was much nicer. Not big portions but a good option to have

Pros: Nice

Cons: Price, Pesto, Small

Vegan pizzas, yay

The portions are pretty small here and it’s too expensive to order two pizzas (I believe they were something like $180 each). But anyhow nice to see a vegan cheese option on a menu in Taiwan.

Pros: Offers vegan cheese

Cons: Small personal pizzas

Pizza was OK, but a bit expensive

It's nice that one can get vegan cheese, unfortunatelythe pizzas are quite small, so if you are on a tight budget, I would recommend going somewhere else.

Pros: Vegan cheese optional

Cons: Expensive, small pizza

Pizza place offering Vegan cheese

All pizzas, except one (smoked cheese pizza), can be replaced with vegan cheese.

We had 3 pizzas: asparagus and mushroom, 3 cups and mushroom and pesto. The asparagus pizza and pesto pizza were good, but the traditional taiwanese 3 cups fusion pizza was a miss for us.

Don’t miss the cute resident black kitty!

Some interesting pizzas

185$ for a pizza with no upcharge for vegan cheese! I had the pesto, it was great. I will say none of the other pizzas appealed to me, they were unique, options like corn or kimchi. Limited seating, they do take out too!

Pros: Vegan cheese

Cons: Limited seating

Good personal pizza

The pizzas can have vegan cheese which was delicious. Some unusual options but the mushroom/asparagus pizza and mushroom/pesto pizza were delicious! Worth a visit if you're on the area. The chairs were weird, you'll see when you go.

Good wood fired pizza

A nice place in Ximending with cool decor and anti nuclear messages on the walls. Great place to people watch. Nice drinks (try the smoked plum juice). Pizzas were good. Some reviews say small but decent size for 1. Interesting flavours including Taiwanese ingredients. Vegan cheese available and well labelled on menu including in English.

Pros: Nice ambience , Lots of choice , Good flavours

Cons: Pizzas not huge but fine

Very good vegan pizza. Make sure with chef its vegan!

185$nt per pizza with vegan cheese. Very nice. They did bring me the wrong pizza with dairy on my second visit, I assume this mistake was the waiter's fault

Pizza was nice and the staff was lovely, just wished the pizza was a bit bigger (also for the price).

ok, not overwhelming

i had pizza here a while ago. as i'm not a huge fan of cheese, i ordered my pizza without, as i usually do. this was no problem at all.
the pizza was ok but not more than that. and for the price, you'll find better food in this lovely city!

Pros: vegan options, location

Cons: price, taste

Liked the food, not the policy

I liked the fact that you can substitute cheese with vegan cheese on their pizzas, but I find it a bit odd that we need to buy the whole block of vegan cheese, use 1/5 on the pizza, and take the remaining 4/5 home. What if I wasn't going home right afterwards?

Instead of asking vegan customers to buy the entire block of cheese for $10, I think it'd be much better if vegan cheese was just a normal option on the menu like non-vegan cheese.

Pros: food was good, staff was friendly

Cons: very dark inside, had to buy a whole block of vegan cheese

Vegan cheese would be nice!

Great tasty pizza with distinctive flavours

I have been eating at this outlet every time I visit Taipei.

The pizzas are really great and special.

The price has gone up over the years... It's now NT185 each (Aug 2015). The restaurant was fully packed when I was there because the roof-top was closed due to rain. I asked for take-away and there was NT10 off.

I am not sure about the prices in Taipei. But at NT185, it's great value! I won't be able to get such great pizzas at such prices in Singapore.

My favourites -- Fire dragon 噴火海龍 (be warned it's really spicy!), Basil-mushroom 羅勒鮑菇 (pesto like flavour)& Ginger Ultraman 薑絲超人 (lots of ginger and some salted egg -- Ultraman's nick name is "salted egg superman").

Apple Cinnamon 蘋果肉桂 & Rosemary potato 香草洋芋 are not bad too.

Pros: good value, excellent food, distinctive flavours

Cons: limited seating

Unique Pizzas and Great Prices!

Great for a quick lunch! I had the lava pizza, which included hot peppers, ginger, edamame, some other vegetables, and a choice of pesto or red sauce. Definitely a daring combination, which I thought was delicious but I would not recommend if you can't handle spicy food! My mouth was on fire!

My meal was 219 TWD, which was 159 for the pizza and 60 for the imported soda. I'm confused by the earlier review here which says this place is expensive, maybe there was a miscommunication on the price? 159 for a personal pizza is extremely reasonable in my mind, and 60 for imported soda seems standard.

The menu was in English and Chinese, and the guy at the cash register, where you order, did speak some English. They had free wifi.

The restaurant is narrow and very informal, not a place for a date, but great if you are a vegetarian looking for lunch in the craziness of Ximen. I will definitely be back; I want to try the rosemary pizza!

Pros: Great Pizzas, Reasonable Price, Friendly Staff

Cons: Limited Seating

Imaginative And Tasty Pizzas

I've been to this place many times which is a totally vegetarian pizza restaurant.
The interior is very cute with lots of narrow wooden benches and an upstairs outdoor area. The seating isn't that comfortable so you probably won't want to spend a whole evening here!

There are about 10 pizza choices, mostly savoury but also a couple of dessert pizzas. I've had the rosemary and potato pizza which was delicious.

They sell organic soft drinks.

Pieces are quite reasonable, about NT170 for a personal pizza. Menu in English and Chinese, staff speak both.

Pros: Variety, Fast Service, Taste

Cons: Uncomfortable Seats

Ridiculous prices
