Great food and friendly staff - Edit
I popped in here to have lunch. The food was really good and the staff suggested other vegan cafes in the area. They have English speaking staff which made ordering easier.

Mediocre at best - Edit
We were really looking forward to our lunch there but left quite disappointed.
Read moreFor 60 Euro we got two glasses of wine, water, a small salad, two slices of bread with avocado spread and two mains (cold, filled small courgette). The starters tasted good, but the mains were not to our taste.
When we left, we had to say goodbye three times before receiving a reply (while only two other guests were present)
It's really cool that there IS a vegan restaurant, but we still expect normal hospitality and for that price also better tasting food.
Pros: all food is vegan
Cons: Very expensive for what you get, We didn't feel welcome, no warm main course for lunch

Very fine Vegan food - Edit
First its worthy of mention that the restaurant has been recently brought by a vegan couple who have taken it to the next level!!
Read moreThe chef for example has 20+ years experience in making fine cuisine and it really does show in their food. All of which is organic, fresh and of a high standard.
For me I loved every bite of all their dishes they had available, I personally would highly recommend you trying the Asian starter and their desert option too, which I've uploaded in the gallery here.
The owners/staff were all very friendly and I can tell straight away that they had real passion for what they do.
I would absolutely recommend this restaurant anytime, its rare you find fine vegan cuisine made with such detail and effort!

Amazing Vegan Food & Great Atmosphere - Edit
My wife and I visited Vegan Gorilla this week for the first time. We are both from Los Angeles and as such have access to some of the best vegan food in the world, so naturally we were a bit worried as to where we would eat while in the south of France. It was a huge relief to find Vegan Gorilla as it felt like a slice of home. Much like the Vegan restaurants in California, Vegan Gorilla serves the highest end Vegan food with no compromises. The dishes are flavorful, original, healthy, and clean. The restaurant itself is beautiful inside and located in a great part of town. Highly recommend it for any Vegans in the area or travelers like us!

New owners with great food and service - Edit
I haven't been here with the old owners so I have no idea how good it was then, but now the food is 1st class. They are up there with Faust and Lucky Leek in Berlin.
Read moreBy the way, the waitress looks like Maggie Gyllenhaal, who is also almost vegan.
Great location. Not cheap, but good value for the quality.
There's a nice surprise waiting to visit you as you enter the restaurant.
Pros: Good Service, Good value, Atmosphere plus

A great vegan in Nice! - Edit
Great owners! Really nice design, great juices and dessert a little minus for the mainplate I took. But I tried my friends plate and it was really good. I like that they change the menu each day so you will always be surprised. The choclate cake for dessert was to die for, the best of the whole meal!

Superb! - Edit
I had lunch here today. It was truly excellent. As a main course I chose the trio of three purées - sweet potato, chick pea and potato - which came with a rocket salad. That might sound bland but whatever herbs, spices had nuts had been used really blended well and brought out strong and spicy flavours. The creamy dessert I had to follow was flavoured with lemon and could not be faulted.
Read moreThe friendly owner told me that the menu changed daily, depending on what was available at the market.
The restaurant is pleasantly decorated with the theme of wild animals - forest sounds are quietly playing in the background.
My one regret is that I don't live near enough to Nice to regularly eat here.
Pros: Excellent vegan food, A pleasant space in which to eat, Friendly owners.

My favorite Vegan restaurant in Southern France!!! - Edit
We had a very nice experience at Vegan Gorilla. The food was really delicious and wholesome, really high quality. The owners were very friendly and ambiance was great. We really loved everything we ate, the butternut squashed with red rice, the noodle, the soup, the desserts, the juices, the smoothies. Absolutely a nice discovery. Highly recommended. We definitely will come back. Bravo (and thank you!) for the courage to open your restaurant in this region. GO! GORILLA!!!
