Not half bad - Edit
This place wasn't bad at all. I had the spaghetti oriental, which was tasty enough. The menú is a good deal at 9000 CLP. I would recommend against the tacos though — way too expensive for what they are. Service was on the slow side, which seems to be the norm throughout the country.

Food never arrived - Edit
2 hours, no food. They then said they ran out of guacamole, 5 minutes later the table next to us is given guacamole...

Fair enough - Edit
Considering the lack of vegan options in other restaurants in San Pedro, this is a good enough choice. They have a section of vegetarian and vegan dishes in their menu, and sometimes there is a veg dish in their menu of the day. The section only has one vegan option (other than sides), but the salads too are vegan, besides two pasta options and one taco. I had the Pasta Oriental and it was really good. Despite not being cheap, it was a huge portion and very tasty. The noodles were light and the veggies were well-cooked. Everything was well-seasoned. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant, keeping in mind the lack of options in town. The space is beautiful and the service was pretty fast and attentive for an early dinner (before the crowds arrived).

Should not be on HappyCow! - Edit
They may have a pro-forma/fig-leave vegan dish, but just to be able to expand their business also to this "niche". Its an animal-based restaurant driven by greed, putting their efficiency ahead of hospitality or anything else. It's a long time I have not been in such a bad and "cold" place. No particular food, either. Lot's of other places in San Pedro that go to great engths to offer a nice meal, go there instead...
Read morePros: None
Cons: Extremely unfriendly & unhelpful. Few options.

Couple of veggie and vegan options - Edit
I ordered rice noodles with veggies, which were sort of a vegan pad thai and it was a jackpot - generous portion, delicious sauce and great combination of flavours! They also had couple of other options, albeit definitely more vegetarian than vegan. The staff is very friendly, accommodating and helpful, however some of them can be quite forgetful (we asked for some water and extra sauce and never received it). Nice interiors, good selection of wine and beer (some Chilean ones available, but not the one from Atacama), mid-range prices, open until late.
Read morePros: friendly staff, nice interior, open until late
Cons: few options for vegans

Dry falafel - Edit
Even though a sign outside said they had vegan options the person in the door said they had none, and the waiter only reluctantly gave us the option to have the falafel plate without the yoghurt sauce (after we asked about the sauce ourselves). The falafel would probably have been okay with a sauce, but I would not recommend any vegan to go here. They seem to have had more options before, like older comments say. The potatoes were good though.
Read morePros: Good potatoes
Cons: No vegan options without customization, Staff has no clue

Bland & Dry - Edit
We visited for a snack as the options they had for vegans was abysmal. I got an apple cake, it was dense, dry & had no flavour. I would not visit again if I had an option.

Vegan options in a non-vegan restaurant - Edit
I only ate here because I was with meat-eaters, and this restaurant had options for everyone.
Read moreThere was only three vegan options, from what I could see on the menu.
I just went with the soy bolognese spaghetti, and it tasted quite good.
In the future they can add more options though.
Cons: Not many vegan options.

Vegan food on the main strip - Edit
Terra, todo natural.
Read moreOpen late which is a bonus, on the main strip and easy to find.
I ate the spaghetti con bolognese (carne de soya). It was very tasty and filling.
The watermelon juice was lovely, my veggie boyfriend loved the chocolate milkshake.
The next day I had the ensalada de casa and taco guacamole (which was more like two tortillas overflowing with tasty Guac!)
The next visit I ordered two side dishes arroz blanco and venduras de wok, which was cooked veggies in soya sauce, it was heavy on the soya but I loved the mild asian flavour.
On our first night the server was really helpful, we waited to be seated (although I can't determine if you seat yourself or not when it's busy). He brought is the set menu and I asked if there was vegetarian, he explained in spanish what's veggie and asked if ¿tu como queso? Do you eat cheese? I explained didn't eat cheese or leche and I was vegano.
He suggested the printed menu rather than the menu of the day.
Luckily he was able to explain in English that the spaghetti with carne de soya had simple vegan ingredients.
Service can be slow when it's busy, sometimes it feels like they forget about you but just try to get a servers attention they are lovely.
Pros: Lots of vegan food , Easy to find , Open late
Cons: Service can be slow, Can get busy hard to get a table

Total frustration - Edit
This place has a good selection of tasty veggie food but I would NOT return again after the absurd service. Lonely Planet says it's worth the wait, but I disagree. The place was barely full and when we ordered our food, we watched the waiter just wander around the restaurant, doing nothing. Eventually our food came, but not our juices. We asked about the drinks, and the waiter THEN placed the order to the barman right in front of us. So our food was cold by the time we had something to drink with it. The portions are small, the food is good, the presentation is nice, the service is HORRIBLE. We asked for the check and when we handed them our Visa, they asked if we wanted to include a tip on the bill. How presumptuous! We said NO, and then they went ahead and billed the credit card with a tip! I asked them to fix it and they just gave me the change back. They were not friendly or helpful and we weren't the only customers with slow, bad service. Go to Delicias by Delia instead.
Read morePros: takes visa, good selection
Cons: bad service, slow service, ignorant

very pleasant and honest - Edit
Yes, Todo Natural is an excellent place for veggies. Even vegetarian soup is available. Pleasant staff and very honest. I forgot a small plastic bag with a couple of thousand pesos. I discovered this only the next day, went back to the restaurant and said that I left this plastic bag. They asked me how much money. I said, maybe two or three thousand pesos. No, they said, four thousand. And they gave the money back to me. Wow, great people! And good food and drinks.
