Not bad if a bit bland

Great summer rolls as an appetiser! As a main I had a Saigon curry which was a bit bland unfortunately. Would give them another try though as they have heaps of options...

Pros: Lots of options...

Nice

Oh, those summer rolls!💗I always order them when I go there. Sometimes I just order that because they are that good.

In this Well Being they have a special menu that you don't find in Well Being II.

I did have a little problem with them once tho. I asked for a dish to be made gluten free and when I got it the waiter said "it has only a little bit of soy sauce in it". Well, a little bit makes it already not gluten free. There is the option of calling in advance for that, but I don't know what the price difference would be if some of their dressings had tamari sauce instead of "a little soy sauce". I would be willing to pay 0.50 - 1 € more for that.
Another thing they should maybe do would be to specify where the allergens are, because doing it like this

"Dish name" with "ingredient A", "ingredient B", "ingredient C", "ingredient D" in a "sauce name" with "ingredient E".
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (allergens)

is not very clear.

Anyway, it still offers nice food =)

Average

We went here twice -different branches - on our visit to Cologne. First time we got summer rolls and spring rills- these were lovely and I had high hopes for dinner.
My husband got fried rice it was good if it a bit stingy on the veggie meats
I got sweet and sour tofu- the tofu was sooo good however it was let.down by a really poor sauce which was a funny tomato sauce - not sweet and sour for sure

Service was slow, prices were high and we were just disappointed - we did give it a 2nd chance in the other branch but it wasn't much better.

Pros: Vegan

Cons: expensive , Poor quality

Good one

We went there during our stay in Koln for 5 times, since it was really close to our hotel.
Food is great and portions pretty big, not totally sure about price, not from Germany, but seemed to be okay to us, compared to other restaurants..
Staff is really friendly and nice, but once happened that we have to wait for every operation in process (menu, order, food, check) at least 20-30 minutes. Another time it looked that staff is not noticing us even there were only few more customers.

Pros: Great tasty food, Big portions, Prices

Cons: Waiting

Even my non-vegan family loves it

I go there occasionally with my parents who are always looking forward to the food at Well Being. It never disappoints. I personally wished the atmosphere was a little less "sober" (like so many vegan places lack coziness in my opinion) but the food definitely makes up for it!

Good food!

Friendly staff, attentive service.
Good food all around - fresh veggies and tasty mock meats.
I particularly enjoyed the organic food and the fact (although not really my thing) that raw options and smoothies were available.

Pros: Fresh vegetables, Big portions, friendly staff

Tasty, clean and fresh

Excellent food here. Very fresh, clean and comes out hot.
Soups are delicious, as are the fried spring rolls.
Menu is big and a bit too much choice (dare i say it, being a Vegan).
Is a solid option for decent and clean food, for Vegans and non Vegans alike.

Pros: Clean , Fresh

Have eaten quite a few times here. Big selection and all vegan! Fresh ingredients and huge portions (often have to take some home in a doggy bag). Especially recommend the faux crispy duck ..

An all time favourite

Good service, good atmosphere, great food. Most dishes are really well made, few are plain. Quite pricey.

Plenty of choices

The menu offers a lot of different choices and is basically setup like a “traditional” omnivore one. You can order any kind of “fake meat” from “chicken” to “beef”. The dishes are very tasty and the atmosphere is nice.

First vegan restaurant in Cologne

I think this was the first all vegan restaurant opening in Cologne, and it is still one of the best. You get a wide range of vegan asian dishes, the stuff is friendly, the meals are tasty and portions are big. The new location is much bigger and getting a table without reservation much easier.

Updated from previous review on 2015-10-30

Pros: Very good food, all vegan, Friendly stuff, reasonable prices, Wide range of options

Amazing Asian food full of flavours

I love this place. Been here 4 times already and showed it to my best friends. Everything. I had here so far was amazing. Packed full of flavours thanks to their generous use of fresh herbs and spices. Love the bowls and curries and can’t get enough of entree number 9 (the rice cakes). Also great smoothies

Pros: food, location

pure plant-based

Nice atmosphere here at Well Being. Flavorful vegetable tofu miso soup, they did the vegetable stir-fry with both 'chicken' and 'beef' and a side of rice... I've have better vegan meat!!! but it was still good. both servers were very helpful and nice, I ordered spring rolls and it never came 😐
I recommend this vegan establishment to anyone wanting good pure plant based food in Cologne Germany.

Pros: pure plant based menue, nice people.

Cons: vegan 'meats' could use an updated recipe.

Best Pho I ever had!

Besides the wonderful staff at the restaurant what I liked best about it, is that you can choose to exchange the seitan "meat" in favour of vegetables. Everything I ate was delicious and I definitely recommend to eat there.

Pros: great prices, everything is organic (!!!), fantastic service

Good food, great service

I ate spring rolls, summer rolls, mango curry with a Jasmine tea and banana smoothie. The starters were great, the main was nice. If I were to come back, I would go for a different main second time around. The service however was great - super attentive and friendly

Pros: spring and summer rolls! awesome! , menu is HUGE
