Veggies on Fire

We had a very warm welcome here, the atmosphere was very cosy, and were helped overall very well by the waitresses. The food was great. We had some Raw-food dishes for the first time in our lives - we are very sceptical towards the claimed benefits, and also didn't believe it could be really tasty, therefore never tried any - which had however excellent taste. The brownie dessert was really, really good - at home, I make brownie myself regularly, but this was way better. We will definitely make another visit soon.

Loved this restaurant, probably the best vegan meal I have had so far. You could taste the love for food and flavors of the owners. Everything was prepared with care and served by the friendly staff. Will definitely go again next time we're in the Hague.

We had a great dinner. The staff was very friendly and the food was delicious. Though I would recommend to make a reservation as the place is quite small, but I'll definitely come back again.

We had a very good diner. Vegan food with love. It was all perfect, fair priced and nice service. We will be back !

We ate here on a lovely sunny evening and ordered the raw salad, asparagus with seitan schnitzel and the chipotle burger. Their menu changes with the seasons, spring menu was on since 3 weeks.

The food was good. Dishes weren't super creative or original but definitely very tasty. I liked the seitan schnitzel a lot, firm and crispy as I hoped. Staff warned that the burger might be very spicy. It was just perfect for me, but I enjoy spicy food. The oven potatoes weren't made in oil but water. Still they were quite crispy and as tasty as when using oil. I don't mind the use of oil, but for those who do it's a nice plus.

Staff was really friendly and attentive, waiting time between dishes was perfect (I'm commenting on this since other reviewers complained).

I found the prices a little on the expensive side, but then again portions are quite big. I barely finished my plate and I eat a lot normally.

The location is not really scenic or attractive, but the restaurant is not to blame for that obviously. It's a bit away from the centre as well, which could be a downside for some.

Walking through the city to Veggies on Fire we spotted another vegan place and walking back I spotted a vegan supermarket. Could times finally be changing? ;)

Incredible meal, from drinks through dessert, thoughtfully prepared by a wonderful, friendly couple in a beautiful atmosphere. In Europe we found a plethora of fake meat based restaurants (not complaining, they were good too!) so it was a nice respite to enjoy a meal based on scrumptious, fresh vegetables, perfectly prepared. Highly recommend a stop here.
Note that, like many places in Europe, dinner is an experience. There's more time between courses than Americans may be accustom to. Put enough time aside and enjoy it!

Such a good surprise! The dishes were absolutely delicious and the staff really friendly. I had the best burger I'v ever had in my whole life, and so healthy since they don't use oil :D

The owners are so nice and the food is prepared with care and flair. We like!!

Después de una visita a La Haya, nada mejor que cenar en Veggies on Fire. Es un restaurante 100 % vegano, donde tienen una carta deliciosa, llena de sabores y con algunos platos picantes. Los propietarios y camareros son acogedores y agradables, es un lugar donde me sentí muy bien atendida.

This place is a good example of vegetarian restaurants these days. The main dish, a veg burger, was loaded. The wine list was minimalistic, the personel friendly. The bill however was very real and frankly excessive in relation to the meal.

After many good reviews on this site and others, we gave it a try. First impression was perfect; the room very cosy, the owners very friendly and welcoming. They even did the effort of making a less spicy burger for my two year old. Still I wouldn't recommend the place for parents with children, as the waiting time is extremely long. We had to wait more than an hour between the starter and the main course, which is long and with a child way too long (and we did arrive as one of the first ones). The food itself was really nice; raw sushi being the absolute best. And the kale chips as a start was a nice touch. My partner was less impressed by the tempeh Chimichurrie. The cashew cream was amazing. And we would have loved to stay for the desert, which looked very delicious, but had to go home, since it was getting way too late for the little one. In short; I recommend this place, but not if you are in a relative hurry.

The dishes are very creative, with great flavour combinations and beautiful presentation.

The seasonal menus have gluten-free and raw vegan options too, and if you have any other food allergies, just let the staff know and the food you order will be prepared accordingly.

And make sure you leave room for desserts!!

Not the cheapest of places, but the high standard of the food is definitely worth it.

Great restaurant! Everything is vegan, mostly organic. Very nice food and owners. Reservations recommended, it is often full.

Very very nice! Had some amazing food here. Wonderful nut-based dips, delicious burger (yummy spicy chipotle burger) with a very good side salad (lots of different veggies), very nice crispy potatoes and delicious mayonaise. And the desert... wow!
Also a big plus: the passion that they have for what they make, and the willingness to unravel the cooking secrets.
I'm already looking forward to the next time I can go here!

This nice vegan restaurant is worth a visit. After a visit to the Mauritshuis, the beach or an other attraction you can finish yout day with a nice meal served by friendly staff.

Great place ! The food and presentation are exquisite!
Loved the croquettes and the burger was great ! I was skeptical about the Crème Brulee, being vegan and all, but gave it a whirl and I was very pleasantly surprised. Man, this was a feast fit for a king and I will most definitely come back soon. Next time I'll try the pepper steak !
The service was also outstanding ! I also met the owners. Great people with a genuine dedication which is reflected in every way !

While I love every new option for vegan dining, I was underwhelmed by Veggies on Fire. The decor and sfer is great and the service is very attentive. However, the kitchen seems to be run more on idealism than on cooking skills, because the food turned out to be hit-or-miss.
The groente kroket as a starter was nice, but the pate with the crackers was somewhat boring. It is basically a spoonful of an ok-tasting veggie paste with some dry crackers.
After that, we waited a full hour for our main course, which is simply unacceptable to me.
The tower of tempeh was very tasty, but it comes with a big side salad that was completely undressed and therefore was not pleasant to eat at all.
The Chipotle Burger consisted of a very mushy patty, a quite dry bun and a splash of Ketchup. Why can't there at least be a slice of tomato, salad, cucumber on the burger? Even a 1€ Burger at McDonalds has that. For 16€, this main was extremely disappointing.
There also some RAW food options on the menu which I only saw being served to otherwise customers. It looked like a decent sized salad of julienne vegetables, but I don't think I would want to go back to try it as it also seems quite pricey at 17€.

The service was wonderful, with each course carefully explained with a true passion and love for their fresh ingredients. The food simply delicious. The ambiance fresh, clean and modern. The real pleasure to have experienced Veggies on Fire!

This place is where I have been waiting for: pure, healthy food served in a very elegant way. Some of the plates look like small pieces of art in which you see the passion of the owners. Veggies changes the menu with the season, so even if you come more frequent, there is always something new to try. And... I never got disappointed, only more impressed.
It might take a little longer for some plates to be served, but once you see and try the food, you'll understand why and judge it worth waiting for!

We had one of the best meals we ever had. Everything is homemade, right down to the kale chips, seitan, tortillas, ketchup, and coconut whipped cream. Raw options are available. Wines are vegan and delicious. Ours was fair trade and suffer free as well. The chipotle burger is a spicy house specialty, on a home made whole grain bun, and is incredible. Hachee, a traditional Dutch dish with cinnamon and cloves, was very good with homemade seitan. The brownie with homemade raspberry coulis and coconut whipped cream is heavenly. Menus change quarterly to honor seasonal local farming. Service is great and they explain everything you are eating.

This is the place to be in NL to have Veggie food.
Unlike a lot of other Veggie restaurants VOF keeps high standards on friendlyness, and food quality.
very good choice of wines.
Even when its full house you still have enough space and you can talk with and hear eachother.
We have been there now for the third time and will return asap!

After our visit to De Vegetarische Snackbar and the beach, we went to Veggies On Fire for another nice meal.

Veggies On Fire started in April 2013 and call them self a vegan restaurant. They also offer raw food and use mainly local and organic ingredients.

We went there by bus, but it's also possible to take one of three times that stop almost in front of the place. We didn't call ahead, so unfortunately there was no table for us to sit at. We were advised to go out, walk around a little and then come back. Unfortunately after we came back, there was still no table for us. We waited and waited, but no one left. Then finally we were offered a table by a family who overheard our conversation, so we could finally eat!

Since we had enough time being hungry, we already chose what we wanted from the menu, so we could tell the waitress immediately our order.

For me:
Drinks: Bitter Lemon (organic) and water
Appetizer - Fried Tempeh Riceballs
Main course - Sate (Seitan)
Dessert - Raw Raspberry/Chocolate Cream Cake

And for my girlfriend:
Drinks: Coke (organic) and water
Appetizer - Summer Roll
Main course - Chipotle Burger
Dessert - Coconut/Lime Cake

I could describe all the dishes, but I can just sum it up by telling you up front that literally everything on our plates tasted wonderful. The fried tempeh riceballs were very juicy, the (seitan) sate couldn't be better and I never had a better chocolate cake than the one I had at Veggies On Fire. My girlfriend was also very pleased with everything she ordered and of course we tried from each others plate.
After a very nice talk to the owners, we took our desserts to go with us for the 2,5 hours back to Eindhoven. What a great visit this was, it couldn't be better.

Food: 10/10
Service: 10/10
Decor: 10/10 (Even the bar is made out of local wood! Also great lighting and overall ambiance)
Bodybuilder-friendly: 10/10 (Lots of protein on the menu and rich portions on your plate!)

Mainly local, organic, vegan, even raw, very nice people, great atmosphere and easy to reach.

!10/10!

We had a great time at Veggies On Fire. The staff was very friendly and the food was truly amazing!
The dishes were very tasty and not the usual vegan stuff. As a starter I had cauliflower fried in dough. My partner had a raw dish: beetroot with macadamia nut paste. Excellent!

Main dish was puff pastry seitan, a subtle and tasty course. Again, my partner had the raw option. A bit too for her to eat everything, but the taste was great.

We shared a chocolate mousse for dessert... And I know, it sounds boring: but the taste was so good.

This place is truly a must go for every vegan. For every vegetarian. And every omnivore.

We do appreciate the initiative very much but unfortunately were disappointed with our food. the selection of vegan places in The Netherlands is still poor and therefore we were very excited to read about this new place in Den Haag and went to check it out with high expectations after reading the reviews here. The service is nice and attentive and the place is clean. The cooking tasted perhaps like something you would be happy with visiting friends at their home but definitely not on a restaurant level. We tried the 'Oven dish', mix of Tofu and some vegetabls. We also tried the chipotle burger, which was better than the other dish. It tasted nice but it's texture was mushed and paid 16 euros for that. The 'salad' that comes as a side dish isn't very exciting either and pretty dry. The plating is what you would get here at a 'Dutch cafe', some side Salad, some potatoes and your main dish . A good word we should give to the vegan mayonise which was very nice. We hope it was a bad day at the kitchen or maybe the quality would improve with the time.

Beyond delicious! This is the type of food that makes me want to rush home and try to recreate it. If you haven't been here, you really should try it. I'm definitely coming back!

Superbly presented, deliciously prepared, served with a flourish! We had: raw capaccio (superb), soup du jour (lentil carrots, very tasty), chipotle burger (we'll have to have it again, soon), coconut lime pie (delicious) and raw chocolate mousse (best raw dessert ever). The wine was good, service was efficient and teuly friendly (rare qualities in the Hague), an excellent dining experience, and all vegan to boot ! An absolute winner.

We had a very good dinner today at Veggies. The best miso soup I've ever tried, a good and spicy burger and the coconut-lime cake was the grand finale!
The wine was very good too!

This young vegan restaurant offers great food prepared with a meticulous attention to detail, flavor and presentation.

The atmosphere is light and casual, service is punctual, friendly, and personal and most importantly, the balance of subtle but distinctive flavors - as well as textures - of the dishes we tried were simply fantastic.

This is definitely not the bland, unexciting type of food some people expect a vegan restaurant to offer, and the staff takes noticeable and well deserved pride in this.

The menu is very compact. Perhaps even sparse. But the available choices are diverse enough to offer something for any taste. There are options available for people following a raw food diet.

If you choose to go and give Veggies on Fire a try, which (as should be clear by now) I highly recommend, I have one advice: Do NOT skip dessert!

Prices are not low, but fair.

Very tasty food, good wine and nice decor. My husband, who is a vegetarian but grumbles when I want to go vegan, definitely enjoyed this all vegan food. The chocolate mousse was better than many non-vegan chocolate mousses I have had!

It is a bit out of the way if you're used to eating in the city centre but still very doable by bike and tram number three stops very close to the restaurant.

This is a lovely little vegan restaurant not far from the centre of Den Haag. The menue is quite small but the food was tasty and had a home cooked feel to it. The portions were generous, and the staff very helpful and friendly.
We'll certainly be coming back!

The food was delicious, it's all vegan. The schnitzel was good, comes with lots of sides (a.o. roasted chopped potatoes with good vegan mayonaise). The chipotle burger was delicious, spicy but not too hot, it also comes with lots of sides. Raw banana icecream and lemon cheesecake were very good.
Nice athmosphere, modern interior.

There are many things to like about Veggies on Fire. One is that it's open until 11pm, and in a country where people eat dinner early and many restaurants stop serving at 9pm, that's quite a find!

The care put into the food is wonderful. The husband and wife who run the place are clearly passionate about vegan food, all of which is made fresh on the premises. Even the schnitzels are made to order from wheat flour!

Anyway, we had sushi (wonderful), the schnitzel (awesome, with roast potatoes and fried veg and salad), and Mexican tortilla (delicious). The portions are huge! They're happy to box up the left-overs if you can't manage everything.

So if you're looking for great food in Den Haag (whether you're veg'n or not) then visit Veggies on Fire, you won't be disappointed.

The place is very pretty and easy to find. It's cosy. The sushi is fantastic. The burger and schnitzel are not bad, but could be improved as they are a bit tasteless. The tempura-tempeh, fries, salad and chocolate mousse are good. The portions are good, the prices are decent and the music choice is great. I would definitely recommend this place, but especially the sushi.

Great tasting food, nice service

I LOVED Veggies on Fire! It is also conveniently located in my neighborhood, another plus. The food was great (taste and portions were excellent) and the service was amazing. We had to wait a wee bit longer for our main course and as a result we got a round of drinks on the house to compensate. We also spoke to the chef, who really wants to ensure that you enjoyed your meal. His smoked tempeh tastes just like bacon! Great place and will def go again soon.

Located a bit outside of the city center, but very close to a few bus and tram stops is Veggies on Fire.

If you look at the menu the food might not seem that exciting. But it's not as simple as it seems from the descriptions. Very well cooked and flavoured food, nicely aranged on the plates. I discovered the cook has a passion for smoked peppers, which is great, but he also knows how to make subtle use of them.

Because it was really busy we had to wait a little while for our main course, but they gave us some cherry tomatoes and a beer on the house, so it was all good.

The owners really have a passion for food and are extremly proud of their restaurant, and rightly so. It looks great, the service is awesome and the food is really good.

The only things which could use minor improvement is that the menu is indeed a bit small, and my desert was a tad small. But I'll definately go here more often, it's a great experience.

A fully vegan restaurant in my own city.. wow! Went there to check it out, together with my omnivorous stepfather who is quite the criticus. I liked the dishes, though I already had quite a lot of deepfried food lately (at the Vegetarian Snackbar!) so maybe the tempeh tempura and chipotle burger weren't the best choices I could have made. Did like the meals though. The portions were big, too big for me, but you do get value for your money that way. It's a suitable restaurant for omnivores, though my stepfather wasn't impressed by the food (but maybe that's just him).

We tried all of their deserts, the chocolate mousse is definitely the best and their cake is wonderful. The ice cream wasn't like ice cream at all, and it took quite a while before we got the deserts... but well they were only open for two days when we were there, so I guess they still have to get used to things a bit. I definitely recommend a visit!

Oh and... yes there aren't many choices on the menu, but since all of them are vegan it's still hard to choose anyway ;-)

A very nice (and clean) place with friendly staff and cozy atmosphere. The food is just yummy!

I have been there once so far. I had a carrot soup with orange (= the "soup of the week"), tempura made of tempeh and Thai spices, a Sherperd's Pie (vegan version of course) and as dessert a lemon cake with raspberry sauce. They also serve pretty nice (vegan) red wine and of course soy cappuccino.

The owners are extremely friendly and helpful, and it is very obvious that they love what they are doing. The only thing I noted which could have been a bit better was that I found the side salad a bit dry but before I could say anything my neighbor made a remark and we immediately got some very nice extra sauce as a dressing. Such things are just a matter of personal taste anyway.

The prices are not really low but it is definitely good value for the money.

Yes, everything was just great and I am sure I will get back many times. And I would not hesitate to take omnivore friends to this place, since I believe a lot of them would love it, too.

The restaurant is located a bit outside of the city center of The Hague, but supereasy to reach by public transport, for example by "RandstadRail" (a type of tram with several stops in the city center) number 3, stop "Valkenbosplein". And it is definitely worth a detour.

The venue opened only recently but it is already quite popular, so reservations are recommended.

5 stars!

Veggies on fire just opened yesterday, so everything was still very new. The staff was not fully settled yet, but were very friendly, and stopped by our table to talk to us. The food was great! I got a dish that didn't sound all that special, but the taste was great. I personally thought there could be a bit more options on the menu, there were 2 soups, 4 entrees, 4 main dishes and 3 desserts, but everyone at our table got something different and they were all very good.

It's definately a place I would go to again and recommend to others.
