Not many vegan options

I had the vegan curry, which is just vegetables (to protein ingredient) and tastes OK. Nothing to rave about, but also not bad. Had hoped for more options and more authentic food. The ginger beer was pretty tasteless. Outdoor seating quite nice.

Nice food, relaxed ambiance

We visited Curry Bowl for dinner one evening. There are a few vegan options, including a vegan curry and a stir fry devilled soya dish. Spice levels can be adjusted to suit your taste. We tried level four, which is the highest available, and can confirm that it is not for the faint-hearted, but we really enjoyed it. The ambiance is relaxed and it was nice to sit outside on the heated terrace. Prices are reasonable at €9.50 for a main dish.

Fairly good

I got the vegan curry on noodles and lentil croquettes. They were both good. I was sitting inside and the way they cook on the grill is very noisy so not a very pleasant experience.

An okay place

I had the vegan curry and it was okay. Nothing extraordinary, but still okay. The place was packed and service took forever. That together with the fact that we were sitting on the counter by the kitchen didn't make our experience eating there all that great. It's still a good place to eat if you run out of options or are in the mood for some Sri Lankan curry.

Not the best

The best part of the meal was the red lentil fritters. They were crispy and then moist in the middle

My devil dish which was the stir fry was not the best. The peppers were barely cooked. I asked for spice level 3 and didn't feel any kind of spice.
Portions are pretty large. I didn't finish the food, as it wasn't to my taste.
My friend's vegan curry bowl came out cold so I had to ask for it to warm up, which they cooked again. Felt like the curry tasted powdery.

Staff were friendly though.

Nice Curry. That’s it.

The vegan curry is rather tasty. It’s a chunky coconut milk based curry with fresh veggies and potatoes (no tofu). But that’s probably the only vegan option.

Pros: Tasty coconut curry

Cons: Few vegan options

Mixed veg curry - more western than Sri Lankan in flavour.

One of the few places open on a Sunday for vegan food the waiter was friendly and explained there were two vegan mains (a mixed veg curry and another fried rice dish could be made vegan), and three sides could be made vegan.
Opted for the mixed veg curry, this was a nice curry (Spice level “Croatian spicy”), which was hot enough for me.
If you’re after real Sri Lankan flavour and style this curry is not for you. If you’re happy with a bowl
of mixed veg (peas, carrots, cauliflower and potato) with curry and coconut with a western twist then you’ll be happy.
Overall, a nice curry but far from authentic in flavour.

Pros: Lots of veggies , Comes with rice

Small place, a few vegan options are available. Open on Sunday (a lot of vegan or vegan-friendly place was closed, thats how i ended up here). Not bad, but nothing special.

Pros: They have a few vegan options, Good and helpful staff, Vegan curry available (not bad but nothing special

Cons: Only a few vegan option, Nothing special, Inside super noisy, outside smoking is allowed

Sri Lankan Curry

It is great that Zagreb has exposure to this cuisine, especially with such a central location. I wish there were more vegetarian and vegan options, but the meal was good.

Pros: Bringing food diversity to Croatia , Excellent Location

Cons: Not many vegan options

Spicy food, lovey staff!

I order the veg curry and it was really good full of loads of flavour - I got the Croatian spice and it was quite spicy but I do like spice. Where it was located was convenient and the staff were really friendly. They seemed to be having a lot of fun with the music which was a good laugh. Only downfall was I guess the menu wasn’t labelled vegan but the ingredients were listed so you’re able to distinguish what was vegan.

Most of the veg options were in fact vegan!!

Pros: Few veg dishes labelled Veg were vegan , Decent price - affordable , Lovely staff

Cons: Dishes weren’t labelled vegan

Croatian spicy is spicy

I loved the deviled dish vegetarian curry. It's like a mix between and Indian stir fry and Chinese sweet and sour. The spiciness level "Croatian spicy" was enough for me, and I usually like to eat spicy.

Fantastic!

What a relief this place was. After a couple weeks travelling through smaller Croatian cities, where the options for vegan food are nearly nil and restaurants serving Asian or other ethnic food that's better suited to vegans are also nearly non-existent, I was excited to try Sri Lankan Curry Bowl when we got to Zagreb. I was not disappointed. I got the veg curry bowl with the highest level of spice - I think the spice level was called "Are You Serious?" It was incredibly spicy but still edible, which is just how I like it. It also cured my cold. My boyfriend got another dish with the "Croatian" level of spice, which was level two, and wishes he'd gone spicier, though the flavour was good. Throughout the trip we found that Croatian food is not particularly spicy, so spice it up when you can.

Pros: Several vegan options, Hospitable service, Ethnic food isn't always easy to find in Croatia
