Extraordinary pizza - Edit
We had a pizza, Mac n cheese, juice, and cupcakes! All amazing! All eating between 2 and we were plenty full, but never had that heavy need to take a nap type feeling afterwards. I read somewhere that no oil is used in the pizza crust. Definitely visiting again!!
Read morePros: 100% flavourful & 100% vegan, Walking distance from Condado lagoon, Oil free crust, Awesome!!
Cons: Not open every day? If I have to list 1

Definitely go here if you’re in San Juan. The owner is so nice and told us about his farm and the plans to make a vegan hostel upstairs. Support this business!

Amazing, great vibe, fresh ingredients - Edit
This place is amazing, easily best vegan pizza in San Juan, among other virtues, an oasis in an otherwise rough feeling unloved part of town (feral cats and garbage-strewn street, strung-out addicts and busy horrible car-hell avenue/shops nearby), a terrace of green plants in the entrance signal you've arrived in a warm lovely place. The pizza and mac and cheese and other dishes were great, as was the cold ginger-pineapple-tea (can't remember name) super-refreshing beverage, which the owner/server brought out shaking in a plastic gallon jug. The bread sticks (I think they were called) were hot and fresh and good but a little bland for my taste -- we ordered the broccoli one (stuffed with broccoli and cheese I think) and the 'regular'/plain one, which just had cheese -- I think it was the cheese, which I think was attempting to be like 'cheddar' crossed with 'American/velveeta'-style cheese, which is a great consistency for the pizza but is not my favorite ever in terms of flavor, would love spicier and more flavorful vegan cheese. But overall amazing and refreshing.

Pros: Very fresh ingredients and flavors, Great vibe, personal feel, Seems totally committed to vegan values
Cons: QR code ordering off-putting/silly/unenvironmental, Requires that you have a cell phone to eat, Water not free(!)/not included. Could be spicier

Mediocre vegan food - Edit
The service was good but the food was mediocre.
Read moreThe pasta was slightly over cooked, bland, the rice was under seasoned and the pizza was crispy and no cheese substitute in it. My family has had better vegan food in almost all other fully vegan places.
If you are into fully vegan place and you ran out of choices in San Juan this place is good.
Pros: Fully vegan, Good personal attention
Cons: Not so great taste
DamianSa
Wow what a cruel review, you seemed satisfied with your wife and daughter at my restaurant. You ate it all, I personally asked you if all was good and you said YES. The salteada vegana Pizza that you ordered does not have cheese is made on red sauce as described in the menu. Be mindful when you write reviews we are small restaurants that work really hard to make it in a small island it's not cool to visit our country and vent here when you could leave the restaurant and we were happy to don't charge you if your didn't like the food from the first bite, but ate it all. In Puerto Rico we don't vibe that way, we love our friends from other vegan restaurants and we support each other as we are small community of vegan restaurants in the island.

Healthy and Delicious - Edit
My wife and I shared a 12 inch Veggie pizza, soursop juice, and cocoa cupcake for lunch. The pizza was delicious, the cupcake was light and not too sweet, and the soursop juice was a pleasant and new experience for us. We appreciated the owner’s emphasis on healthy and sustainable vegan food. He does not use highly processed ingredients, and will not sell single use plastic bottled water.

Thank you for your review. You deserve a 5 star as a client for being plant based human being for so many years. Your stories about food teachings made my day. Thank you for caring your water container, wow it's awesome for us as we live the same lifestyle. Caring for the planet is our responsibility 🌍.

En cuanto al servicio A a pesar que es 1 persona quien cocina y atiende. Y A en la comida, pedimos una pizza veggie y estuvo sabrosa. Los jugos naturales y el postre rico. Los ingredientes son frescos, el tiempo de espera fue razonable, aunque no había nadie.

Great People, Good Food - Edit
I am not sure if it was the owner or the manager, but our server had such love for veganism and sustainability.
Read moreThe food was solid but not amazing
We had two pizzas and one was really good and one was okay. I thought the papas one was too dry, but the local was excellent.
There was a great lentil appetizer, and the Chinese rice was pretty good, but I didn't love the seitan.
I would go back, but not everything was amazing.
But supporting their missions and beliefs make it more attractive to go back.

Very solid options - Edit
We had toyed with coming here and I'm glad we did!
Read moreThe marinated lentils were very very tasty. I'd definitely get them again!
Fresh pineapple juice was refreshing after a hot day.
The papas local pizza was decent. The Margherita pizza was excellent. I tried the rice on the Chinese plate and enjoyed the rice as well.
The owner is so friendly and genuine and such a great person with a fabulous vision and big heart.
They are adding a vegan hostel in the second floor hopefully in 2023.
Definitely check this place out!

Great vegan pizza! - Edit
This was a great personal sized pizza ! We each got a chorizo pizza. I think the pizza is made from pumpkin which I hadn't heard before but was good and would taste great as a pasta sauce too! The owner is really nice and came to talk to us for a few minutes.

Opción de pizzería vegana homemade - Edit
El dueño trabaja solo, so, tu comida puede que tarde unos minutos, u hora, depende de las personas ya esperando. Aunque él trabaja solo un su pizzería vegana, siempre está pendiente de su clientela que eso gusta.
Read moreLa pizza está buena, pero diferente. Son ingredientes hechos en casa. No usa productos veganos procesados de marcas conocidas (carne vegana, queso vegano, etc)
Pros: All vegan pizza, Dueño amable y muy atento al servicio al cliente, Vegan himself
Cons: Works alone, food may not be as quick
DamianSa
Saludos, gracias por su reseña y apreciamos su visita a un negocio local con valores de sustentabilidad y comida hecha a mano pensando en la salud de cada invitado. Nuestra pizzería vegana de comida hecha a artesanal nunca será rápida aunque tengamos un equipo de 20 personas ya que nosotros nos tomamos el tiempo de hacer una comida saludable y que sea local apoyando los agricultores locales, conservando el medio ambiente y amor por la naturaleza. Si su expectativa es que seamos rápidos nosotros no somos la opción, otra vez gracias por su honesta reseña.

😉👌🏽Me parece bien que la comida no sea hecha rápida, de esa manera se puede preparar bien sea 1 o 20 como mencionas😁
Read moreTomarse el tiempo de prepararla, mi comentario no era como negativo, pero me parece bien.
Y en mi opinión, para nada me pareció que para nuestra orden hubieras tardado, y aunque hubiera sido el caso, CON MUCHO GUSTO Y ANSIAS LA ESPERABA CON CALMA. 🥰👍🏽😋
⭐️Éxito con tu negocio, Damian! 💪🏽😏

Delicious! - Edit
Ordered the Chorizo Vegano, Pasta Alfredo and (2) refreshing Lima Gengibres to share and everything Damian prepared for us was incredible. He grows the fresh herbs he uses in his dishes in his store front and intentionally sources ingredients like Aibonito setas (mushrooms) and pimiento cubanel (peppers) de Santa Isabel from local farmers. All dishes are fully vegan, delicious, and made with 💚. See you soon, Damian!

My family of three tried this restaurant yesterday. The service was phenomenal. We ordered build your own pizza w/ mushroom pepper & chorizo mac’ n ease. My daughter had a cucumber lavender lime juice that was out of this world. The owner, Damian, let her try it before buying since it has no sugar. We finished off with two chocolate cupcakes. Delicioso!

AWESOME VEGAN RESTAURANT - Edit
The owner is an amazing, positive, compassionate person in addition to being an excellent chef! He pours his heart into each meal, and will go above and beyond to ensure you leave his restaurant feeling great about your experience. We got take-out for a large group and everyone loved the food! Go here go here! You will not regret it. Be sure to request the cinnamon bread for dessert. You’re sure to want to grab a loaf to take home, perfect with coffee or tea in the morning!

A pleasant experience where I had the chance to met the owner and to be able to see how he enjoys explaining about the freshness of the local products they use to provide the best taste experience and wellness to his clients. The fresh feeling and the top quality products are palpable and my digestion was flawless. It’s awesome to enjoy a great taste of food and better enough when you know that it is healthy for you! Highly recommended🙌🏻
